More Railroads Wanted.

Hon. Alfred Gray estimates that
there will be raised In Kansas, for
the year 1876, 100000 bushels of
corn, an an acreage of 100000
acres. He estimates 5000, 600
bushels for export. He also eati.
mates q yield of Ii or Is million
bushels of wheat, of which o million
bushels will be for export. The
loads the surplus wheat, 10000 car
loads. Mr.. Gray estimates of oats
and other grain about 1900 car
loads; making In all 225,0 900 car
loads, or ia cars for each and every
day In the week throughout the
year.-Atchison Champion.
Fifty-nine million bushels of corn
make l6S,sS8 car loads; 100000
bushels of wheat make 27,027 car
loads. Its better to have figures
calculated according to the rules of
arithmetic. So we change the
Champions figures to g total, for
all surplus grain, of 2O5, 9l5 car
loads.
Taking the Emporia rates of $40
on wheat, and S62 on corn
and oats, and the total freight on
this surplus grain to St Louis
amounts to $I2,9S2!946. The infer
ence is that, as grain freights con-
stitRte hat . part OF railroad re-
ceipts, that another good crop in
Kansas will warrant the building OF
about q dozen Or railroads.

The people OF Kansas City abuse
horses aud mules more brutally
than in any other city we ever saw.
The streets are narrow, steep and
paved with stone, and the animals,
no doubt, get foot-sore and stiff
legged, but that is no excuse for the
universal abuse they receive. The
street car drivers are a disgrace
to humanity. Sone of them pound
the mules with axe-helves, Others
beat them with the iron bolt used
on the cars. The kindest whip the
poor mules like fiends. A car load
full of people, drawn up a steep av-
enue by mnles, being pounded out
rageously with an ax.helve by q
driver half full of whisky, is a sight
so common in Kansas City that the
residents think it perfectly unob.
jectionable Bergh ought to get the
portraits of the President and direc
tors of the street railway.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
CALLED.

The Republican meeting last Sat-
urday was well attended. The in
terest and enthusiasm manifested
reminded us OF the old days of the
party.
After appointing q new County
Central Committee, consisting of j.
Jay Buck, of Emporia; F. r. Page,
of Neosho Rapids; A. w. Plumb,
of Fremont +; James Phenis, of Pike
and John w. 10y, of Americas,
tho convention proceeded to dis
cuss the proposition as to whe Their
q convention should be held for the
purpose of nominating q ticket for
county officers. Earnest speeches
were made in favor of that course,
by E. s. Waterbury, Esq, Elder s.
G.. Brown, Gov. Eskridge, Prof.
Chambers, Rev. Henry Wright, and
others. Arthur Plumb defended,
In very creditable manner, those
who have issued call for another
convention, insisting that they were
as good Republicans as ever.
At the head of our editorial COL
umns will be found the call for this
convention. We now urge the Re
publicans o: Lyon county to go to
work. The inroads the Democrats
have made upon the party for two
or three years. by creating divisions
and disaffection, makes It incum-
bent for every Republican, aud ev-
cry other man who does not want
to see the Democratic party in pow
er again, to be at work. Let tho
primaries for the election of dele
gates be fully attended. Send good
men to the county convention
men who have tho best interests of
the county and the Republican par
~ At heart. Let the convention
give US g first-class ticket in every
respect. The Republicans of Lyon
county will elect the ticket by a
good majority If the convention
discharges its duty properly. The
management of this county has been
in the hands of Republicans ever
since 1t was organized, and it would
be hard to find q county whose az
fairs have been better managed in
all respects. 1t will be so managed
in the future.
There is q call for another con
vention In this paper. We leave
the people to judge OF its necessity
1t claims to be non-political. The
idea of running ticket for the votes
of the people, and calling it nOn-po.
litical is rather inconsistent. Iti
only effect will be to divide the
Republican party, which is the mo
tive intended with many of its ad
herents, and should 1t succeed
would be heralded as q Democrat,
victory. If there was any call fol
such q movement 1t could be ex
cused, but rs there is none, we urge
Republicans not to be drawn asid,
by it. Let the opposition to thu
Republican party sail under its tru,
colors. In nine cases out of ten
for the last three years, the only eff
feet of Independent or Co-operativ,
movements has been to give tn
Democrats the victory. The Dem
ocrats all favor such organizations
Let the Republicans be on the alert

No merchant should neglect news
paper advertising. 1t will pay him
good returns for the time an money
invested. The numerous devices of
directories, hotel cards, postofice

bugs, profitable only to those who
get them up. The circulars and
hand bills are good, though the ex.
pense of circulation is considerable
lit being a fact that their thorough
distribution costs very much more
