Governor Anthony Back.


Gov. Anthony while in Washington
accomplished what he went for. AT
ter the Secretary of the Interior deci
ded that the State was entitled to land
III lieu OF the 10Th and seth sections
on the Indian reservations, it was held
by the Department, under an old rul-
ing. that it must be taken from the
land districts in which the Indian res.
ervatiOns are. This cut the State out
of any lands. Tho point made by the
Governor was that, at the time the
land was lost to the school fund, there
was but one land district in the State
and that he should be allowed to Sc
lect from any lands ia the State. The
Secretary of the Interior finally gave
in, and allows the Governor to select
from any lands open to presumption

The National Grange OF the Patrons

The National Grange OF the Patrons
Of Husbandry, now in session at Gin.
cinnati, will determine whether there
is 10 be any longer National Grange
and, if so, what are to be its functions,
powers and limitations. There has
been growing in some of the States an
opposition to the National Grange.
The present meeting will determine
how stroLg this feeling is. The re-
ports of the State Oranges indicate
losses of nominal members, although
many new Oranges have been orgsn-
lied.

One of the stock phrases always
handy when any body wishes to abuse
Kansas, is that which d.signates it
the "rotten commonwealth" In pO-
litical contests the phrase is regarded
as a very large-sized ehovelful of dirt
and the oftcner it can be welded the
greater is the amount of muck that is
supposed to be thrown. No Que man
is Kansas. aud no thousand men are
this commouw eaith. Some man aud
some parties of men may be rotten,
but their rottennesS is their own not
the States. The most cold blooded
as well as the highest possible au-
thority on such a question is Wall
Street: and when ii paws eleven per
cent premium for the States 'prom
Use to pay" that act is .thc strongest
decision which can be passed upon
the integrity and ability of the com
monwcalih. Were the latter "rotten."
Wall Street would not touch its bonds
at any price. 1t is quite possible also
that Wall Street would not give eleven
cents. much less eleven per cent. pre-
luium, for the notes of the individuals
who are loudest and glibbest in howl
ing about the"rotten cOmmonw ealih. +"
Give us q rest.-Nanhattaa LaduStri-
