MEAN AND ABSURD.

The Atchison Champion in a very sensi-
bic editorial, says that the QUERY that goes
up from Missouri over the grasshopper in
vasiOn, is not at all creditable to that Stale.
For there the ravases OF the pests have oc-
Cured in old and wealthy counties, rich in
every element Of prosperity. Jackson,
Platte, Cass, Bates, Clay, and other aiiiic-
ted counties. have been settled for from thir-
ty TO forty years, and their farming popu-
lation generally have valuable lands, herds
oil cattle and other animals, and even fat
bank accounts. The country banks through
out that region have immense deposits,
generally made up of the savings of tie
farmers, who have grown rich raising
hemp and corn, and in breeding fine cattle
and mules.
We sympathize with our neighboring
State, in her misfortune, but at the sar.e
time, We do not feel as though we could
encourage the men, who ask for aid. The
failure o. crops in Platte county will have
an indirect effect upon trade in Leavenworth,
but the Missouri farmers can stand it,
much better than the same class in Kansas.
We think that it is very absurd ard mean
for Platte or Jackson counties to think OF
asking for aid or relief

TOO MANY NEWsPAPERs.

TIE TINES has often said that there are
too many newspapers in this State, i: not
for the readers, at least for the publishers
We doubt if there are half-iozen paving
journals in Kansas; yet there are always
some fools who are anxious to invest some
money in a newspaper. They probably
think it is great deal OF fun, and that lots
OF glory is connected with it. The profits,
of course, they take for granted, will be
simply enormous; and this idea they enter
tain Tor six or nine months, when a won
drous change comes over them, and
they gradually become convinced that
they have made asses of them
selves, and finally they end their brief
career as editors, by nice little valedic-
tory in which the. abuse the merchants,
and citizens generally because they were
not supported. The TINES is not the only
journal that has expressed its opinions on
this subject, the ablest papers in Kansas
agree with US. Mr.. Meeker, a correspon-
den, OF the New York 1riJ,ns recently made
trip through Kansas, and in one OF his
letters says:
There are TOO many newspapers in the country.
and the surplus ones were started and run by mill
ticans He then proceeds to give the result Of late

LET FARMERS GO TO WORK

The Troublesome grasshoppers are rapid
ly leaving Tor other sections, Thousands
may he daily seen flying over the city, and
the prospects are that Eastern Missouri
and neighboring States will be As
badly injured as was Kansas last Fall.
But, wherever they may wander, there is
one thing as certain as anything can he,
and that is, thai they Will not again visit
Kansas. As it is, only small portion Of
the crops have been destroyed, and those
farmers who were so unlucky as TO lose all
this Spring, have only one means OF saliva
ton left, and that is il unusual amount OF
work and pluck. Do not be discouraged,
the energy of the Kansas farmer is proven

This is very wet season, and even if
we should not have another rain this sum

day that he intended TO raise plenty OF corn,

IMPORTANT DECISION REGARDING PEN
SIOES.

BY an act OF Congress passed in June,
1870, it was provided that a special consid-
Grafton should be provided for each disa-
bled pensioner for the loss OF a limb while
in the service, this compensation to be paid
every FIVE years either by furnishing the
pensioner new artificial limb, or in case a
new one was not delivered to the soldier, the
money value of such limb. The question
having arisen whether this FIVE years could
be counted As beginning at the time OF the
application Of the soldier, or at the date OF
the passage OF the law, the Commissioner de-
cided the matter by ordering that the five
years should in each case date from the
time of the soldiers application. Ii disa-
bility, such as paralysis, prevents the soldier
from wearing the limb, he is also entitled
to compensation under the law. Pension
Agent Cox will begin paying pensioners
who reside abroad in few days. Of this
class there are about 200, living in every
part of the globe, and it requires about
Sl50,0G0 per annum to pay them.

GOV HAYES.

In 1864 Gen. Hayes. the Republican
candidate for Governor Of Ohio, ran for
Congress in the Second district, beating
Joseph c. Butler by 2,445 votes. His ma
jority that year was increased TO 3,09S by
the soldiers votes.
In 1866 he was elected to Congress over
Theodore Cook by 2,55S majority.
In 1867 he was elected Governor of Ohio,
beating Allen g. Thurman by 1888.
IN 1869 he was again elected Governor
of Ohio, beating George ii. Pendleton by
1901 votes.
In 1862 he met with his only political
reverse. ii. E. Banning defeated him for
Congress from the Second District by / 30.
votes.
This is a splendid record. 1t now only
remains for Governor Hayes 10 complete il

CORN CROP IN IOWA.

A gentleman living South OF the city, who
came to Kansas two years ago, and inves-
ted considerable money in fruit growing,
called on us yesterday, and informed us
that he had not raised more than quart
OF berries this year, the grasshopPers hav-
ing destroyed every thing. Being very
energetic man, he Immediately wrote to
Iowa, the State that supplied US last year,
for seed corn, and received an answer say
ing that bushel could not be bought, the
corn crop for some reason, being failure,
and that many farmers had already plan
ted twice, and even three times, and every
time failed. This is very strange, and if it
hou,d prove true, Iowa will be badly off
next winter for feed, and Kansas will be
compelled TO look TO another State for
