credit to many towns IN the East of four
times the size of any OF tho places IN
which the above named papers are locat-
cd. Our friend meant nothing wrong
when he spoke thus severely of tho
Kansas dailies. 1t was by comparing
them with the great papers of Chichgo,
New York and other large cities that he
was led into this error. Many city in
The United States containing 100000 in
habitants cannot today show us as good
and ably conducted dailies as any one Of
the four we have mentioned. Our friend
should remember that the editorial work
done on Kansas daily is performed
through the sos days generally by no
moro than two men, and that there is
nota large corps of writers, each one
with separate and distinct subject TO
write about TO furnish copy.

of the Junction City Tribune, has
"winked out" HIS namo is Alvord

endcavoring TO turn the world upside
down with his poceJm organ, but no one

A Nut Fer Crangers.

Facts are after all very stubborn
things. 1t was demonstrated during the
recent grasshopper panic that there was
no ignoring of "middle men" in con-
tributions for the suffer, and however
well the farmers get along without them
in times OF prosperity, yet, when ad
vcrsity comes, it is found that all are Of
one society, and mutually dependent on
each other. We noted conspicuous
absence of the hay -seed demagogue on
relief committees.
And now we have another illustration
OF another kind. No doubt the aforesaid
hay-seed demagogue, who wants TO be
county treasurer or prosecuting attor-
ney, will tell the farmer that it takes
now, rs formerly, ,hree bushels of grain
TO send one TO market, or perhaps ask
people 10 elect him TO the Legislature, so
that he can vote for y law creating q
board Of railway commissioners to DIS
arrange the transportation business Of
the countory.
To-day wheat can be shipped from
Chicago to New York for 81 cents per
bushel, and corn for 8. cents. On the
lake, from Chicago to Buffalo, freights
have been as low as q cents for wheat,
and q for corn. So, 10 make the dema-
gogue's story true, wheat should sell at
New York for 80 cents, while it actually
sells for sl.20 to 1.38 = SO one bushel
sends fourteen TO market. And from
St. Louis 10 New Orleans wheat is carried
for II cents per bushel.
Now, here we have the remarkable fact
OF wheat costing less by over two cents
by rail from Chicago TO New York than
by river from ST. Louis to New Orleans.
1t may not always be SO, and will not,
but it shows that the laws of trade are
not controlled by either railways, or stat
utes, resolutions, or boards OF commits
sioners. They are like the laws of char
ity, dependent upon exigcncies, as IN
the instance we refer to above. Whether
these rates pay or not, We don't know,
but railways must find employment for
their cars and their capitalat some price,
and when there is moro than they can do
they charge higher, and when ireights
are short the price is lowered - Just as
farmers sell their crops,-kansas City

A Neat Bank Robbery.

A Boston dispatch of tho 9TH says:
Last night, burglars entered the house
of Charles A. King, cashier of the Barre
Bank, and bound and gagged himself
and family, and mado raid on the bank.
Fortunately, the safe had chronometer
lock, which was set to open at o'clock
this morning, and, upon the cashiers IN
forming the burglars of that fact, they
gave up all attempts OF opening the safe.
They secured $50 in revenue stamps and
81 300 in unsigned bills. Mr.. King and
ms wife, with their little girl, were
peacefully sleeping, when they were
suddenly aroused by shout and ray
of light from bulls eye lantern. Start
ing up, MIR. King says, he saw four
men standing over the bed. One said,
"Hush, not a bit of noise, and no one
will hurt you. suppose you know
what VIC came for 2" Mr.. King said
yes" They then requested him 10 get
up and dress, which he did, delaying as
much as possible. The burglars tore a
pillow case IN two strips, made small
gag and put on Mr.. Kings mouth. Then
they requested Mrs. King 10 get up,
which she did, wrapping q sheet around
her. One Of them took tho child in his
arms. Screwing some rings into the
door, they strapped their ANGLES to them
with leather straps and tarrcd ropes,
placed handkcrcbicfs upon their wrists
and otherwise secured them, leaving
them in the care OF a young man about
20 years old, charging him to keep a
close watch. They then proceeded
with Mr.. King TO the bank, one walking
some five rods in the front, and the
other in the rear, while third led him.
Having rifled the outer vault of the re-
venue stopped and unsigned bills, and
been stamps by the time lock, the rob
bers took Mr.. King back to his house,
place him IN a chair beside his wife and
child, and strapped him 10 it and the
floor. The gag was then taken out Of
his mouth, and the family given glass of
water and cup Of cold chocolate, which
Mrs. King told them where to find. All
Of this time there werethree lights burn
ing about the house. The burglars
were joking each other, and eating and
drinking. They finally took their de-
parture about 80 A. NJ, bidding Mr..
King and his wife good bye, with mock
and sarcasm. Some fifteen
minutes later King freed himself from
his bonds, alarmed tho President of the
bank, sent a messenger to Montpelier, ar
irving there about A. NJ. The deputy
sheriff was aroused, and telegraph
operator at work sending dispatches in
all directions. They received n reply
from Bradford, stating that persons
the description of the bur-
glars had crossed the Piermont On. H. u
bridge at 6 A. NJ. with Sheriff Jackman
IN close pursuit. Mrs. King says she in
formed the young man who was left
with her, after tho others had gone TO
Tho bank, about the time lock, and that
hey would get no money. On hearing
his, be nearly swooned away, and SAID
his was the first job of the kind he bad
aver attempted. She says Le treated her
md the children very respectfully.
