in each Of these cities gave them "blast,"

Deacon, OF Leavenworth, went to see this

The Lawrence Journal says:
D. 2. Greeley has brought suit against
the NJ r., F. ;. 4 u. railroad company for
s., 600 damages for being put off the train
between Cherokee and Girard, October 9th,
1874. He saws that he applied at the ticket
Office at Cherokee for ticket, but the agent
would not sell him one, and told him it
would not cost him more on the train than
to buy a ticket. The price OF the ticket was
seventy cents, which he refused to pay, and
so he was put off the train.
The following from the Kansas Dem
ocya will be interesting to farmers:
A gentleman who called with Us one day
last week predicts that the present year will
be the hest crop year that has ever been in
Kansas. In 1850 he lived in Wisconsin,
that was a dry season, the crops failed and
people were greatly discouraged. This gen.
tleman got it into his head that the dry
year would be followed by a good crop year.
and while Others were afraid to plant and
cultivate, he added works TO his faith and
put in largely of wheat, oats, barley, corn,
and potatoes. His labor was rewarded by
an abundant crop of everything he planted.
He predicts that 1875 will bring a very pro-
ductive year.

Geo. Higyins e Co., Publishers C.laDbss Jdarnai:
You will stop your paper to Samuel McKinsey,
Lafayette Indiana, whom ordered il sent as he
is nv brother and only desire to send him paper
that bears q true Republican stamp.
The above note was received by Oscar
after we learnt that his services as Z. NJ.
were soon TO end. There has been great
deal said in regard to his Republicanism.
The above shows to some extent his Repub-
licanism, for when the Jonrnai was sent to
Mr. McKinsey it was a bitter Democratic
paper, edited by ]. +. and S. o. Mcdowell.
1t had then the "true Republican stamp"
as viewed through his political orbits. Yes,
he wants paper that bears a true Repub-
lican stamp and such Democratic papers
as the New York Day Book, Columbus
Courier and Pomeroy's Democrat suits his
idea OF Republicanism. We have just one
dead head less.
