Resolutions Passed by
Lincoln County Coun-
Gil Of Changers.
JANUARY l2th. lS7!


WHEREAS, 1t is generally
believed that the present Legis-
lature will be urged to repeal
the conventional interest law,
and to levy an indiscriminate
tax on Railroads of the State;
AND WHEREAS, We believe
the present stagnation in trade
results from short crops, and
not from an high rate of inter-
est, and that the successful OPP
erations of the Railroads is of
the greatest Importance to the
farming interests Of the State,
by which interest they were
built;
AND WHEREAS, We believe
that the frequent changes in our
Statute Laws" which have
been declared by high authori-
ty to be the natural disease of
popular assemblies" do retard
the material advancement of
our State and country
ReSolred, therefore, That VIC
believe the repeal Of the con-
ventional interest law would
withdraw large amount Of cap
ital from the legitimate channels
of trade, and that we are OPP
posed to any change in the in
terest law Of the State.
Resolred, That while we
strongly favor the taxation of
all property, Railroads inclu-
ded, we are opposed to any ar
bitrary assessment per mile, be-
lieving as we do, that such leg
islation would result in the abb
solute stoppage Of trains on all
but long and profitable lines.
RESOLVED, That a copy Of the
foregoing be sent to each of
our county papers and Repre-
sentative in the Legislature.
T. G. LITTLE, Sec'y.

e9 The material Of the
Southern Outrage Committee
appointed by Congress atones
in some degree for the partisan
motives which prompted their
appointment. The Republican
members are mostly Of the
moderate kind, and the fact
that there is a Democrat on
each committee, affords an open
ing something in the semblence
of fairness. If the committee
would only pay equal attention
to the outrages inflicted by the
official plunderers of the South,
as to the "rebel outrages," the
country might put up with what
at best will be a useless under
taking.

NOTICE

1t is reported in the country
that the Fayetteville FIGURING
Mills are taking the sixth for
toll, and that they are only run
ming two days in the week for
customers-both of which re-
ports are incorrect. They run
any time for customers that
they come in and only charge
the seventh for toll. So bring
along your grain and we will
guarantee you better meal and

~ Among the reforms ur-
ged in Illinois is a proposed
statute to make none but tax
payers eligible to seats in the
,jury-box. If such a measure
were agitated in the South, it
would be denounced as a di-
rect blow against the man and
brother. The Northern States,
however, are free to solve their
own communal problems with
out let or hindrance. As to
Taxpayers on juries, the trouble
lies deeper than legislation can
reach. It is the undisguised
and inexcusable aversion of re-
spected and intelligent citizens,
whether taxpayers or not, to
do their share Of jury work.
We preach much about reform
ing our judicial system, but if
a healthy public sentiment COM
PEELED every worthy citizen to
contribute his share Of time and
talent under the system, half
our grievances would cease.

Burglars. Beware.

Mr.. Charles O'Conor, who
stands at the head of the bar of
New York city, has replied to
the following questions, which
were suggested by the recent
shooting of the two burglars,
Mosher and Douglas:
First-Is there a law on the
statute books in regard to the
challenging" of a burglar by
his intended victim before fir
ing on him, even when in the
act of plundering his goods?
Second-Would the law JUS
tify a person in firing on and
killing a burgler simply Oh see
ing him endeavoring to effect an
entrance into his house at
night.
The reply of Mr.. O'Conor,
which follows, will probably be
a salutary warning to the horde
of murderous villains who are
infesting the country:
FoRT WAsHINGToN, Dec. "a, 1874.
DEAR SIR.-I see no present
occasion for considering the
technical questions stated.
Men who devote their lives to
housebreaking and theft as an
occupation can have no rights
which others are bound to res
pect. Their habitual pursuit
Justly condemns them to out
lawry. AT least such is their
condition while prowling in the
night time within or around
the dwellings, Of their intended
victims. When in the attempt
to execute a felonious enterprise
they happen to be slain by the
family whom they are seeking
to plumber, public justice will
institute no fastidious scrutiny.
No one will inquire whether all
the forms or ceremonies were
observed which some ancient
lawgiver or modern enactment
for "that case made and pro-
vided" may have discreetly sug-
gested, whatever may be the
strict law applicable to the case;
and whatever exact duty might
enjoin, no magistrate will COM
nit the slayerto prison, no grand
jury will indict them, nor will
any district attorney prosecute
or petit jury convict Eff, indeed,
any one in this line of official
authorities could be found to
act adversely, the next IN sue
cession would be apt to repudi--
ate his doing, or if a concur
renee of the whole could be i'm
agined, ending in conviction,
it is very certain that no Cover
nor would hesitate an instant in
awarding to the accused a safe
deliverance by his dispensing
power.
The Van Brunts were JUS
titled in point of morals. Their
race-the Holland Dutch of
New York-rarely fail to meet
with appropriate action any
emergency appealing to honor
and bravery. Let US not enter
into any nice criticisms upon
the manner Of their achieve
ment; it was just and bene-
fetal; applause is their due
All honest men will accord it,
frankly and in unstinted meas
ure.
l am, dear sir, yours truly,
