prOmptness to suppress

military promptness to suppress
the-wind.
1t was only the 10Th of March
last that the Governor wrote this to
a citizen OF the State:
As all men in like positions are, and Of
right should admit themselves TO be, 1 am
the servant, not the master of the people.
This admission does not involve the sur
render, but the subordination only Of per-
sonal judgment.
And yet we find him on the 9Th of
April putting a town, without q
sound reason for such action, under
military surveillance, thus saying
you are q set of outlaws, ard your
officers are not doing their duty,
and cannot or will not execute the
laws. After our officers and people
had protested against his action his
troops were kept here, and there
was many an inquiry as to who was
the "master in this instance-the
people or the railroad company.
It is not with pleasure we say
these things, and we leave the sub
ject hoping the Governor can give
as something on which to justify
his extraordinary action, as he now
stands before the public in very
unenviable predicament.

Fdovernor Anthony has taken the strike
by the nape of the neck, and accomplished,
by prompt and decisive action, what
might have been done at first.'
BAIL Twaddie. The softest kind
of twaddle. After the strike was
over, so far as this community was
concerned, he marched a half hun
dred of tads here, mostly boys,
whom twenty strikers could have
effectually put TO flight, had there
been any strike worth mentioning,
and the result is the death of an in
nocent, peaceable and useful minis
ter by the utter lack of common
sense and military uses and skill in
one of his awkward squad" We
should think Governor Anthony
would feel proud of having sent over
the country by telegraph such DIS
gushing stuff as the above, after the
result of his military display here.
He had better bride the mouths Of
such toadies, under the existing cir
cumstances.

WASHINGTON, April e.-The Off
ciel excursion to Chester, Penna (,
returned this evening about IL
O'Clock. During the exercises the
President came very near meeting
with q very serious accident. In
leaving the steamer from which he
of Para, he made quick rush for
the steep gang-plank, and his foot
slipped. She Iurched suddenly for
ward, and had not one of the gentle
men with him caught him, he would
have pitched forward down a fall of
thirty feet upon cut stone below.
CHENoA, Ill, A pril THE wealth
er has been very favorable in this
section for the farmers, and they
have mostly got their oats and other
small grain and are now blowing
for corn. 1t is thought that the
frost has not injured the fruit in this
vicinity.
CINCINNATI, ONO, April Tt is
announced that the great trotting
stallion Smuggler, who has a record
of 2 :l5I, will not be run during the
coming summer, but will make the
season at Wilson's, Abdaliah Park,
Cynthiana, KY. He Is now enroute
from California and expected to ar
rive this week.
PoTTsvILLE, Pa, April THE
German Catholic church at this place
was entered last night by thieves,
who stole the chalices and other ar
ticles valued at about $4,000.
BATH, N. Y, April 7.-One of the
buildings of the Steuben County
Poor House, near this place, was
burned last night, and fifteen in
mates persisted. The fire was set
by an insane pauper, who perished
in the flames.

We learn tbat ToneIxa il stili ann.

We learn that Topeka is still arm
ing with the intention of suppress
ing the Emporia ''rioters.7 We are
glad to see that Governor Anthony
has procured the efficient military
services of the haired and mild
eyed G. F. Morse, his railroad friend,
late of Bosting, as cspliDg of q new
company which is drilling in the
State house. 1t thrills the blood of
the other fair-haired individual up
stairs to hear the "tramp, tramp" of
his soldiers, and the awful tones of
the drill master reverberating thro'
the State house. That is sweet mu-
sic Ia the ears of the wah governor.
We humbly make but one request,
and that is, as we have no more
ministers to spare, that the new
"malish" do their practising, in the
use of arms, on some one of their
own number. VIII the gallant
commander-in-chief, while resting
on his fresh laurels, please issue a
hsnd-biIl to this effect.

From Marion County.

EDITORS NEWS: 1t Is generally
supposed now that winter is over in
this part of the t'Great American Des-
ert,'' and complaining is going on
between showers at lively rate. The
Weidline brothers have about seventy
acres already up and looking well.
Farmers are well up with their work
this season, and the outlook is encour-
aging.
Wheat is far advanced for this time
of year, great many fields having al
ready jointed. If no evil befalls it a
great deal of wheat will be harvested
here in May and everything now in
dictates an abundant yield.
The peach trees are loaded with
fruit, except in narrow strip of coun-
try which was visited about a week
ago by hail storm that beat all the
fruit from some trees. The recent
trosts have done no damage in this re-
gion.
The towns and country are full of
strangers seeking homes and business
locations. Many have settled in our
midst, some having bought land or
property, and others renting; and still
they come.
Our towns are growing and and i'm
proving daily. Charlie Bragunier is
building a handsome stone business
house in Peabody. 1t is to be two
story building. The first floor he will
occupy as a store room, and he will
finish off the second story tor city
hall. Some good houses are being
built also in Florence, both for dwell
ing and business purposes.
Peabody is now a city, having re-
Gently been Incorporated, and last
week elected her officers. Walker, of
the Gazette, was elected one of the city
fathers, and wears his honOrs like a
hero. He also wears a bran new hat
(the Lord only knows how he got it,,
which is altogether becoming to his
style of beauty.
The Assessor is now abroad in the
land, hearing his tellow-citizens boast
of their poverty, and condOling with
them in their distress. If you want a
watch or horse, get him to buy it for
you, he always has the bottom quota
tions.
A great many trees have been plant
ed in Marion County within the last
few years and it is surprising to see
how many have grown in so short a
time. Almost every enterprising
farmer has nice grove of forest trees
near his house. and many have several
acres of timber. There are plenty OF
trees here only six or seven years old
that will measure "a inches in circum-
ference. And when land buyers come
among us for improved farms, they &C
for the trees every time. Trees are q
good investment. and there is no dan
ger of having too many.
Marion county can now boast OF
some as fine horses as the State af-
fords. There are several magnificent
specimens of that noble animal in and
around Peabody. Mr.. Jacob Brown
has beautiful imported dapple-grey.
Percheron for which he paid $500,
Mr.. Cation has fine horse of the same
stock, and quite q number of others OF
different breeds are owned in this vic
unity. JEEMs.

Beyond the Reach of Human Skill
Is the power to restore the hair to bald
heads when the bulbs at the roots are de-
stroyed by disease or age; but there are
doubtless many persons becoming bald,
whose hair by careful attention might be
restored to its original luXuriance ana

CANT preparation, designed 20 meet the
public want for q harmless hair dressing
and restorative. 1t acts like magic, COM
mencing at the very roots, removes dam
druf and all humors from the scalp, and
never fails to restore gray or faded hair
TO the original color. and the soft, rich
and glossy appearance Of youth By its
occasional use falling of the hair is inn
mediately checked, and luxuriant and
beautiful growth of young hair induced.
The exquisite perfume and the purity of
its composition are highly appreciated,

twill be remembered that an item
has been going the rounds of the pa
pers, copied from the Arkansas City
Traveller, to the effect that Pawnee
Pete, an Usage Indian, had offered a
white girl fer sale at Arkansas City.
It seems from an item in the Wichita
Eagle, that Mrs. Thomas Nickerson,
wife OF the president of the Santa Fe
railroad company, has interested her
self in behalf of the child. We clip the
following from the Traveller:
Mr.. Berry and brother, with James
Morgan, went to the Territory last
week and took possession of the white
girl claimed by Pawnee Pete. The In
dams at first refused to give her up.

The Lawrence Journal of We'd
nesday calls the citizens of Empo-
ria "mob-sym pathisers." We are
much surprised at such language in
that paper. There are many former
residents of Lawrence here, whom
the editor of the Journal knows,
and who are his personal friends.
No one knows the utter falsity OF
the expression as used toward this
city better than he. We shall be-
lieve, until we learn to the contrary,
that Mr.. Thacher is not the author
of the insulting and uncalled for
language, and that he does not en-
dorse it, but that 1t was written by
some ignorant and ill-bred snob in
temporary charge of the Journal.
Had there been a mob or any oc-
