One of the beauties oflynch law
is shown by an incident which re-
Gently happened in Kansas. A mob
went to the house of a man who
they supposed had stolen a horse,
and, dragging him from his bed,
hung him to a tree, .and-then shot
twenty-five bullets into him. The
next morning they found they bad
got the wrong man, this one be-
ing a Woodworking laborer with
three children, aud that the right
man lived just next door. ssThe
laws delay may sometimes be
very yexatious, and its judgments
not always in accordance with
justice. 1t would be far prefera

sons should escape its punishment

suffer for the crime Of another

desiring to be renominated, has

was an influential and popular

against his acts in Congress; but
he had appointed his own ~son to
be a cadet at West Point, and that
his constituents would not stand.

of militia at nineteen. in the
Legislature at twenty-five, and
in Congress at twenty-six. He
was Circuit Judge at twenty

was never defeated when a

would have been better for him
if he had followed the occnpa-
ton of his father, which was
that of a farmer. His greatest
regret is that he ever made a
political speech Or held an
office. He adds, ''to be a
blacksmith, a carpenter or an
artisan of any sort is no dis
credit to any man. Better tia,

A FEW PLAIN TRUTHS.

As the time is now near at hand for us
| to select our delegates TO the congressional
convention, We desire 10 say 10 the Republic
can electors OF the unity few plain words
Of sober truth:
ID. w. Houston, Of Ieavenworth is a can
dida,e ior the Republican nomination for
representative in congress- from the first
District Of Kansas, Hitherto We have treat
ed his running As a good Joke, just as it is
regarded by everybody who knows him. and
that cur readers who are not acquainted
with the man may know why We have thus
treated him. We propose to give HIM this
brief introduction to the public.
He is professional Office seeker, and' is
always the ready tool OF any man who is in
power In Sid Clarke's day he was Clarke
man, and no service for Clarke was too low
or too mean for him to do When Caldwell
bought off Sid, he bought Houston also and
Houston has been his ready and willing
tool ever since He went into the L. :.
Marshall's Office through an appointment re-
ceived through Clark and Pomeroy; at the
time Of his going in, he was worth nothing; IN
three years, ut six thousand dollars, he sdred
ninety Mousand doiius, according to his own
affidavit. lie is in full sympathy with
Caldwell, Smith, and their confederates, who
have stolen Leavenworth County poor; they
have been carrying mortgage of five thous-
and dollars on his Office, and he does their
bidding; they could afford TO spend money
freely TO get him into Congress, for it would
be just the same as being in themselves
He is one of the most INSCRIPTIONS dema-
gogues connected with any party in the
State, and is a shameless hypocrite, too,
for he makes cloak of the Christian relig-
ion TO cover up his rascalities, and when he
is stealing the most he puts on the longest
face and the deepest pretentions to piety
He is Il man Of no intelligence. lie would
barely have sense enough TO find his way to
Washington if he should be elected, and in
Congress would be 4 disgrace to the State,
and the laughing stock OF the Nation.
There is not possibility of his nominal
ton. Wherever he is known people laugh |
at his running as joke. But Tor fear the
vigorous living that he is doing through |
his paper and on the stump, might |
deceive some Of the delegates Of this county |
and cause them to vote for him because he
is I.eavenworth man, we make this state
ment as matter Of duty. If Leavenworth
casts her vote solid for W. A. Phillips she
will show her appreciation Of the man who
is certain TO lie our next Congressman, and
will thus give herself a stronger hold upon
his friendship, but If she gives any votes to
such man as Houston she will fritter away
her strength and make herself ridiculous
in the sight of the rest Of the state. Let
the voters Of the county bear these facts in
mind
