The Arkansas to DO Surveyed.
HOUSE, OF REPRESENTATIVES,,
Washington, ID. c., May1,
10 C. II. Scott, Esq:

10 C. II. Scott, Esq:
DEAR SIR:-Ysurs OF April 25th received.
The provision survey of the Arkansas was in
corporated into the river aud harbor bill, and
passed the House several days ago-is now
pending IN the Senate. THos. RYAN.
If the bill passes the Senate the river
will be surveyed and an opportunity
be made to clear it of snags and other
wise improve it. The more the river
is tested the more confident we become
of its practicability for boating pur-
poses. The water is as low now as it
generally gets, and the boat now ex-
perimenting between this place and
Wichita meets with comparatively lit
tie opposition.--Arkansa City 1rav-
eler.

Not less than ono hundred thousa nd
immigrants will become citizens of
Kansas this year, and many of the
shrewdest judges place the number at
one hundred and fifty totwo hundred
thousand. From every town in the
State comes the story of 'houses all
full,' and "heavier land sales than for
years. If the immigration of last
year was one hundred thousand, the
present Indications would warrant the
expectation of two hundred thousand
this year. With an average yield from
the present crops, the immigration
next year will certainly be far beyond
all nt.-1ndustrialist.

The Eastern War.

War matters in the East still look
very threatening. Large numbers OF
Russian naval officers have arrived in
America, and it is supposed for the
purpose of taking charge of American
vessels being purchased by the Rus
sian government. Austria is also
massing troops along the Danube.
Peace is as far off as ever.

The recent terrible explosion in the
Minneapolis mills is attributed by
some TO a product technically known
as "red dog" among -four manufacture
ers. The cred dog" is extracted in
the process of publication, and much
care is taken in disposing Of it by pru-
dent millers. The stuff appears to be
as deadly as dynamite. The subject
now win be likely to receive much
more attention by parties interested
than has been given it heretofore.

The Communists.

Our friend, Mr.. Ross, Esq, takes u:
somewhat to task this week for Ger
tain reflections on the Communists
who have been drilling in our princi'
pal cities East. We guess friend Will
liam received a wrong impression from
our article. No reflection upon the
laboring man or his rights was intend
cd. We had III our mind at the time
Megy, who is said to be the murderer
of the Archbishop of Paris, and who
last week was parading his gang
through the streets of New York, and
who tried to kill an editor who criti-
cized him. The cry of the organiza-
ton is 'Down with all priests, preach
ers and churches, and down with all
property rights" Such men are dan
gerons, and their sentiments imperil
the life Of every principle dear to the
liberty-loving and law-abiding citizen.

earnest fight to eliminate from the
Indian appropriation bin the clause
providing for the removal of the Mes

A. the time ror the new wheat crop il al
most upon u, things around tho elevators
begin to look up, repairs and improvements
are going on, and facilities for handling grain
the coming season are being greatly incrsas-
ed, new buyers are putting in an appearance,
old buyers are assuming more of business
air, and things generally among the bulls and
bears in the grain trade are wearing a differ
ent look. Our grain reporter interviewed
squad Of them yesterday that were hanging
and perched on hitching rack near the do
pot, waiting for chance to bid on load of
wheat. They unanimously agreed to pay fer
| choice cid wheat 95 cents; No. 8, s. cents;
No. 4, 70 cents. Corn, "a to 30 cents. They
were also OF the opinion that during the COM
ing week, If the weather proved favorable,
that some wheat would be cut, and within q
very few days thereafter new wheat would
be on sale, and the crop being good not only
in Kansas but in Southern Illinois and other
wheat-grewing localities generally, there
would be considerable decline in the price.
They al,o claim that there is quite large
amount of old wheat yet in the country and
that will have tendency to weaken prices.
However, it is our opinion, that prices will
not change materially for some time to come.
Hogs are worth from S2.15 to S2.25.
| No cattle in the market; stabilized cattle are
about all disposed of, and its between hay
and grass for sll other kinds.
