Governor Anthony is Catching
e" from most Of the Democratic pa
pers, on his letter to the editor of
the Troy Chief. We see one of these
papers rsviVes the old story started
By . political hack, that Anthony
once said he had "no sympathy with
the debtor class" New, IL they
have no better capital than that 90
An eiectiOneering dodge against the
governor, they had better stop,
That was worn thread-bare two
years ago, and even its author ad.
mitted It was . lie manufactured
for the purpose Of making votes
among the people against Governor
Anthony.

Here IL the way the gold bugs

have been false prophets. The
Philadelphia North American of
the 18th inst, says: "It Is hardly
worth while to keep repeating that

We haven't had any poetry ''hand-
cd In" on apriRg, so we take this,
which is next to II, from the Com
monwealth:
HAnd Kansas In the spring of
1878 Is a. pretty as 9 picture. Those
@real Kansas days" that our news
paper men talk about, when the
weather IL perfection, have follow
cd zach other in March, usually the
worst tempered of months, in al
most uninterrupted succession. The
'imover,' whether in the swift train
orelow wagon, sees the emerald of
the springing wheat; the rosy
flames OF the peach orchards light
ing up the prairies black or brown,
90 where the blue sky comes down
20 the distant bluffs along the far
stream"

The practice of issuing immigra-
tion papers in Kansas first origina-
ted eleven years ago with The
News. Frequently through the
years 1867 and 1868 large editions
were gotten up specially devoted to
this locality, and scattered broad
cast by the people.

The Topeka Commonwealth says
that Henry Ward Beecher visited
the State house, while in Topeka
the other day, and among other
things, said that the public schools
Of Kansas as evidenced by their
work then on exhibition, had no
peer in any State in the Union, and
that our system OF education was
equal to that of the New England
States. A very high compliment
indeed.

The bank of England having rails
ed its rates of discount to the nee
essary figure, gold is now being
shipped to London. Several MIL
lions OF dollars In gold have been
thus shipped during the past two
weeks. Thus goes the "basis OF
Values" under a specie payment
policy, and q very nj ce basis it is to
rely upon. Now you see it, and
now you don't see it.

In order to accommodate the bu-
slness men who demand space for
advertising, the New York Herald
has several times of late been CON-
PEELED to publish a quintuple sheet.
New York merchants have goods
to sell, and they want the people to
know it. No man can be success
full In trade without advertising.

senator Howe, of Wisconsin, has
always stood as q very respectable
If not very aggressive member of
the Senate. There is no doubt but
that he 'let himself down" very con-
sidearblY in the estimation Of the

Gus and rather coarse attack on the
Praaidant.

The Anglo-Russian situation re-
mains unsettled, and not materially
changed. There is an abundance oil
bad feeling on either side, and Yari-
Gus knotty questions must be ad-
justed before public apprehension
can subside. Whether the opposing
powers will prefer to cut the gordi-
an knot by the sword to untyiug it,
may be revealed in q few days.
