voted bonds enough TO bud the rail-
road from Newton. and now the rail-
road will not even pay her taxes,
though other men pay their taxes.
However if this thing has cured oar
county proplc f 'is: 'oting bonds. the
money has been we'll spent. Sorry
that Commissioner Carpenter says is
...!l right The 3jjJ petitioners who
back him is all very well, but, he
sh Juld not i.ase let it cui 4 at unless
they get their bridges now they will
never re. them. The voters should
consider This gre:!. truth ani nip the
evil ia The bud. Far better do with
CIT bridge at Wichita, than be conf
pcllei To bridge the whole county.
Justice 10 he rising generation. re-
CURES that the whole thing be voted
down. We should not impose Oh pos
ter;ty burden. We are unwilling and
unable to bear Ourselves. Justice TO
ourselves, requires rs 10 vote 1t down
for we are taxed 10 death already. The
thing is inpolitic. Ten per cent. III
tercst. six per cent. less III cashing
bonds and four per cent. for repairs
annually, making 20 per cent. the lst
year: thus we pay one years taxes be-
fore we get any bridges. Again, bridg-
cs cannot be built before the high wafer
this year. The capital invested in the
bridges now built. is being used TO
saddle their old traps on our people
by manufacturing opinions for us
Farmers. rouse up and think for
Yourselves: let the bridge companies
"whilc ago. Vote against the whole
batch of schemes, the bridge influence
have persuaded our commissioners to
thrus, in our faces. Bridge these rivers
this year, and next year we must
bridge Cowshin OH every section line,
and this last proposition is not one
more ridiculous than the one under
consideration.
FARMER OF LONE TREE.
Tit is very evident that the above
writer allows his prejudice to run
away with his judgment, and that he
makes reckless statements rs facts. 1t
is. ALWAYS. best to deal fairly with our
fellow citizens, whatever their con-
victions, and not i,npugn the motives
of honorable officers, or. prcyaricate
the truth at the expense OF any man
good name. The spleen that suggests
the .'rottiug down" Of bridge would
make its Dossessor 4 dan gcrous man
had lie place or power. That the COM
missio,rers acted under any undue
or corrupt influences we repudiate, and
hurl it back as :, SANDER That the
bridge company had anything to do
with procuring i submission OF the
question is utterly without foundation
in truth. That they even desire to sell
| their bridge is not known. Come, my
dear sir, talk fair, and do no: attempt
to east suspicion upon the character
and motives of officers whom we have
no doubt acted conscicntiously, honor
ablv and within the law III the sub
mission of The question which has
brought forth such terrible anathemas
and foul suspicious from the 'Farmcr
of Lone Tree We don't know that
il is best to vote the bonds at present,
I'm; we do know that no amount OF
rantiug will convince the thinking men
of this county that the commissioners
acted corrllptly in the premises, though
nine on, Of every ten should be opposed

IlENRY CLEws, the New York bnnk-

been brought up IN the courts at the
suit OF parties who wished TO have the
assignment set aside on the charge
that he was 'fraudulently putting away
aud disp0Sing Of his estate for the pur-
pose of avoiding payment of his debts.
In reply he said that he had made the
assignment for the purpose OF giving
every creditor m equal shance. AT
the first suspension n year ago he was
sauguinu that the market would react
rs rapidly ~ it had fallen; hence he
hoped to he able to pay dollar for dol

reaction the year had proved the worst

year wnned, some creditors put Their
claims in suit, hoping thus to secure
themselves, whoever might be crush
