CHIEF JUSTICE HORTON.

The general impression is that there
are no State officers to elect next fall.
This is slight mistake. A Justice Of
the Supreme Court ia to be elected to
fill the vacancy occasioned by the resig'
nation of Chief Justice Kingman. This
vacancy was temporarily filled by the
appointment of Judge Horton by the
Governor, but his term expires immedi'
ately after the next regular election
The Atchison Champion suggests that as
the Justiceship is the only Office to be
filled, no State Convention need be held,
but the present incumbent voted fol
and elected without the expense and
trouble of a formal convention. We
second the suggestion. Judge Horton Ii
an able lawyer, and has thus far made
Woodworking, honest and efficient Judge
He is also a very pleasant and agreeable
gentleman. We say. therefore, let the
convention go, and elect Judge Horton
without the formality of . nomination.

AGRICULTURE IN KANSAS.

The present population of Kansas is
over half q million. The total gram
crop of this year is expected to amount
to 12O, OOO, 900 bushels, of which about ~, :
600, 900 will DO corn, nearly 2O.0O0,OO
wheat, and the remainder oats, barley,
rye and other small grains. The value
of the agricultural products in 1875 was
over "a, O00, 600; this year it is esti-
mated 1t CSC, 100000. Farming is car
ried on on large scale in Kansas. Mr..
Henry, of Dickinson county, owns one
tract Of $4,000 acres. He has one wheat
field four miles long, the proceeds
of the standing crop of which will not
be less than $4,000. There are many
millions of acres of splendid farming
lands in Kansas which still remain un-
broken, climate which DR.. Frye, an
army surgeon, pronounces "the most
perfect in the world" and coal in such
abundance that the State Geologist esti-
mates the bituminous beds which under
lie the eastern portion of the State af
20, 900 square miles, each mile being ca
pable of yielding 5000, 900 tons of coal.
There is timber on all the streams in

LATEST WAR NEWS.

We clip the following from the for
eign kilograms of the Chicago Inter
Ocean:
The London Times says: 1.-TWO things
are beyond doubt-that the fighting has
been of a terrible description and at
tended with great carnage, both on the
Danube and in Asia Minor. The Turk.
ish forces have obtained such important
victories in Asia that the Russian jour
mails are accusing their generals of hav.
ing managed the campaign there badly"
It further says: at is reported that
the Bulgarians massacre the Turks a:
savagely and wantonly Is the Bashi-Ba'
zouks mutilate the Russians"
Withirforty- eight hours the Russians
will have met with great check on the
Danube or they will have made tremen
dous advance.
The Turkish plan of the campaign, il
there is one, hos not yet become appa
rent, but it is either an exceedingly veal
neor one that will disclose startling
surprises yet to come. The Turks have
not the men on the line of the Danubt
that the Russians have.
1t is reported that the panic and dis
tress are so great in Constantinople thai
it is becoming dangerous to foreign resi-
dents.
The British fleet has arrived in Besik,
Bay. The rumor that it will come t.
Constantinople is erroneous. No re
quest for authority to come has beer
preferred by England.

up machinery at Fort Leavenworth mil

shoes, it being the design to supply the
army with foot wear made at the prison.
Arrangements are also being made for

the clothing, shoes, ETC., needed in the
army will be manufactured at Fort

;ymptoms of a Diseased Liver.
,)AIN in the right side, under the edge
of the ribs, increases on pressure;
,lnctimes the pain is in the left side; the
..tient is rarely able to lie on the left
dc; sometimes the pain is felt under
re shoulder-blade, and it frequently ex
.:nis to the top of the shoulder, and is
ometimes mistaken for rheumatism in
ne arm. The stomach is affected with
.oss of appetite and sickness; the bowels
in general are costive, sometimes alterna-
live with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally considerable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with a painful sensation of
having LEFT undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight, dry
coxgh is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility; he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrlsts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred wherefew ofthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.

THE SILVER DOLLAR.

We find among the resolutions adopted
at the Iowa State Republican Conven-
ton held at Des Moines last week, the
following:
5. That the silver dollar having been
the legal unit of value from the founda.
ton of the Federal Government until
1873, the law under which its coinage
was suspended should be repealed at the
earliest possible day, and silver made
with gold legal tender for the payment
of ali debts both public and private We
also believe that the present volume of
currency should be maintained until the
wants of trade and commerce demand
its further contraction.
The adoption of this resolution is an
other evidence of the settled conviction
of the people of the West that the coin
age of the old silver dollar shall be re-
sumed, and that it must be made legal
tender for all debts, wherein the kind Of
payment is not specifically stated in the
contract. The act of Congress of 1873
was manifestly unjust in many particu-
lars. 1t was an act of legislation in ia
vor of the creditor and against the
debtor. At the time of its adoption,
there was in existence in addition to our
immense national debt and the debts of
States and municipalities, q vast amount
of private Indebtedness, all of which
was contracted when the currency of the
country was gold and silver coin, or
greenbacks. Silver coin would have been
received in payment of 500 out of every
800 of this Indebtedness prior to the
passage of this act, and its exception
from the debt paying commodities OF
the country was little better than sheer
robbery of the debtor. In other word.
it takes out of the pocket of the debtor
and puts into the pocket of the creditor
the difference in price between silver and
other money, besides making money
moro difficult to obtain by increasing it
scarcity.
It is also unjust in another particular
1t makes q discrimination in debts. A
debt of S. or less can be paid in silve
coin but larger ones must be paid il
something better. If any discrimina
ton was to have been made, it should
have been in favor of small debts, for the.
are generally due to poor persons, Wit
cannot afford to stand discount. As i
is the laborer can be compelled to re
ceive hisday's wages in silver, but when h
tenders it to his landlord for his menth'
houserent, or to his grocer for his stor
bill, it is refused. But we believe Their
should be no distinction, but that al
debts, should be paid alike; and that tn
old silver dollar is good enough for an.
of them, unless otherwise specified ii
their contraction.
1t is probable that this question will
come before Congress at its next session
for final action, and we hope that mem
bers from the West will vote solid for il
There is strength enough here to carr
it through, if it is concentrated, and "
desire that before the meeting of Cor
gress our people should in some wa
manifest their feelings in this matter S
plainly that their representatives vii
distinctly understand their meanin
and vote accordingly.

THE LII. L G. RAILROAD.

We find the following in the Chetopa
Advance, and can cheerfully endorse all
that Brother Cavaness says:
The L., L. & G. railroad is one OF the
best operated roads in the State OF Kan,
sas Its roadbed is not only kept in good
condition, but is being improved all the
time. 1t hardly ever fails being on time
to the minute. Its conductors are very
gentlemanly and accommodating. and
from all we could see and learn of this
road we should judge that it was under
first class management.
