The L., l.. 81 @. EkOad Must Ram
10 AeaVemWOrth.

The Leavenworth Daily Times of the
21st, says:
By kilograms received yesterday ev-
ening, we learn that in the case of the
State of Kansas against the Leaven-
worth, Lawrence & Galveston railroad,
in the United States Circuit Court,
Judge Foster yesterday issued an or
der to the receiver of the road to con-
struct the Lawrence bridge, and pro-
coed to operate the road, from Leav-
enWorLh, at once. From this order
there is no appeal. and it is said the
receiver, Mr.. Henning, accepts the sit
uation, and intends to proceed immed-
lately to carry into effect the terms of
the order.
This ends the controversy, and is a
complete vindication of the position
taken by the State. 1t is victory for
Leavenworth, and one of the most inn
portant she has ever gained in all her
multitariOus railroad struggles. 1t
grants her simply what she is entitled
to,-what the State and the general
government have paid for, and what
the road, when it accepted its charter
and its land grant, contracted to fur
nish. The Galveston road, If operated
as it ought to be, according to the
SpIEl6 rs VIII as the loG1cr VI It's CAaE
ter, would be one of Leavenworth's
most important lines, but as it has
been operated most of the time-if not,
indeed, all of the time-since it was
built, there has been nothing of Leav-
enworth about it accept in its name.
1t is gratifying to know that there is
a power, somewhere, that is able to
compel one Kansas railroad, at least,
10 take some steps in the line of its
duty,

what we want.

We want men and women. Tt is for
our interest to have them, and for their
interest to have some Of our soil. The In
terest is mutual. If we can get some men
and women they will do us good, and we
(Kansas1 will do them good.
Now, we don't want any more lawyers,
doctors sr merchants. Neither do we
want any more young men hunting stu
atious as clerks or peddlers. We have
nothing to say against these worthy class
es of society, but the supply is sufficient
for the demand. What we want Is strong,
vigorous, big-hearted aud courageous men
and women On new quarter sections of
land. tearing up the soil, raising stock,
one Of the principal sources of wealth Of
this country, and rearing homes. We
want one thousand new country homes
in Lyon county. Greenwood, Chase, Nor
ris and COffey- each want as many more.
III we can get these we will have solid
foundation for more of the classes first
named above. These men. and women
would increase our productions, Increase
trade, and make sslid foundation for 9
town. Before we can have much of
town, the country must settle. We have
the land and it is good. It can be obtain
ed at fair rates. We can have thousand
farms opened up, and still have plenty of
range for stock. We must not stand still.
It will add largely to the value Of our
property, to our business, and to the desi-
rableness of living here to have more peo-
pie, and every man in the county is inter-
ested in getting them here. Let US all
make strong and united pull in that d.
rection while the tide is coming.

How a EsIacExy HIlInOIsan saw
ed Ehe Passengers from
Robbery.
Special Dispatch to GIobe.Democrat.

Special Dispatch to GIobe.Democrat.
Houston, Texas, March IS-Two
robbers, with handkercbiefs over their
faces, armed with dOuble-ba-reled
shot-gans, boots over trousers and
siOuched hats, looked in at the door of
the baggage car. One of them said,
"Oh, hell this amt what we w2RE; It's
the baggage carr As tkey passed
the mail car the agent threw a sack on
the head of one OF the robbers, who
drew a pistol. The robbers seven in
number, then went to the express car,
broke in the door, with an ak, disarm-
ed the messenger, 81. A. Thomas,
who had put out the lights and hid
81, 900 in the stove, and made him open
the safe, where they got $3.50, which
Thomas had lett in as blind to pre-
vent his being shot. They took the
engineer and station agent, and put
them in front of them. Having gone
through the express car the robbers
attacked the mail car, in which Terrell
had extinguished the lights. One rob-
Der jumped in and demanded all reg
istered packages. Terrell had pre-
vIously hidden fourteen, and the rob-
Der opened a drawer and took five,
which he broke open and took out the
money, getting $1l8. At this juunc-
ture little Illinoisan, the only one of
any spunk among 100 passengers,
jumped out on the platform, and say
ing, "D--n my heart if they shall rob
me-" commenced firing with a seven
shooter at the robbers, who immediate
ly retreated, firing as they went. Fiji
teen or twenty shots were fired in all.
Expressman Thomas was dangerously
shot in the side of the neck and in the
right check, the ball entering the bone
under the eye A pistol shot cut the
front part of the vest of a newsboy
named David Jones. The affair has
created much excitement. The rob-
bers are probably the same that rob-
bed the same train at Allen some time
ago. The pluck of the Illinoisan saw
ed the passengers.

wheat Growing in Kansas.

Annual Official statistics prove that
Kansas is one of the best wheat growing
States IN the Union, and the increasing
acreage from year to year shows that our
farmers are finding it out.
In 1876 there were S57, 125 acres planted
to wheat, and last tall the secretary of the
State board of agriculture estimates the
amount sown at ,243 .515 acres, showing
an increase of 3s9 $3.50 acres. We have
good reason for believing Mr.. Gray's esti-
mate of acreage sown last fall below
rather than above the actual amount.
Probably the increase In acreage this year
is nearer SOC, 900 than 3S6, 800 acres. From
the S57, 125 acres sown in the fall of 1875,
there were harvested last summer, 9,7I4,-
I'll bushels Of wheat, or only Il. 33 bushels
per acre, while the year before the aver
age was 1888 bushels per acre. If we
multiply the acreage of last fall, as given
by Mr.. Gray, by the average of the last
crop harvested, it will show that the pro-
duction of wheat in Kansas in 1873 will
be 1S, S0S ,0I6 bushels. If the yield should
average as well as it did in 1876, of which
there is good prospect, that is to say about
fifteen and q half bushels per acre, the
production in 1878 will reach the enor.
nous aggregate of 1876, 49, bushels Of
wheat

What of the Futureq

This subject is now absorbing the at
tention of the civilized world. For ages
thinking people have been divided upon
the point as to literal He'll, some con-
tending there is a big one, to which rail.
road men and editors are rapidly travel
ing, others affirming there is only q little
one, sort Of pocket edition, which is car
ried with US daily in our hearts; while
others claim there is none at all, and only
as our actions in this world are guided
by pure motives and wise counsels, will
we find peace and happiness hereafter.
therefore,, in the future, as In the past,
people will continue to be divided upon
these points. But there is one point up
on which all agree, and the testimony
comes from the east, west, north and
south, and that Is that the old reliable
Hannibal q st. Joseph raIlroad is still the
peoples faVorite. Remember this is the
only line that can offer through day
coaches and Pullman sleepers, leaving
Kansas City daily for Chicago via the
Chicago, Burlington g. Quincy railroad,
and through day and Pullman sleeping
cars leaving Kansas City, Atchison and
st. 10. Daily for Toledo Ohio, via the Wa
bash railway, without change.
Important The train leaving Kansas
City At o:30 p. M, Atehison at 4:45 d. m,
and st. Joseph at 6:0S p. m, takes q

We have never seen in any paper
great truth concerning journalism
more vigorously and fairly stated than
in the extract published below, from
the Louisville Courier-Journal. The
st. Louis GlObe-Democrat having stat
ed that Gen. Boynton, the Washington
correspondent of the Cincinnati Ga
zette, had secured the Indictment" of
the late Revenue Agent Moore "tor
libel and conspiracy" and having re-
MAJ ked thereon that a newspaper
writer should defend himself "by the
use of vigorous English" without any
libel suit, the Courier-Journal takes up
this remark and discouTses well upon
the degradation of journalism by the
'Fuse of vigorous English" 1t says:
"The rule laid down by the Globe
Democrat would convert Journalism in
to a cess-pole navigsble only by mud
craft. The most successful journalist
would be the most Vociterous black
guard. Dirt singing is as easy as ink
singing. 1t requires neither wit nor
worth, simply action and utterance.
A man like "Brick" Pomeroy
would be an Overmatch for a man
like VIM. G. Bryant. The gentleman,
who shrinks from vituperative contrO-
ruffian, who, equally disreputable and
irresponsible. would see it in his sole
chance to seem to be somebody. The
development of truth would in every
case involve the development of filth,
and the lowest vagabOnd would be
raised to level with the most respect
able. The fuse of vigorous English is
leveler; and, but that iG overreaches
itself, it would defile the thought, as it
d )es the language, of the time"
Getting even with a criminal by the
fuse of vigorous English" may do,
says the Cincinnati Gazette, for those
who are willing to put themselves on a
level with the Yilest BLACKBOARD, or
who feel that they are there already.
But journalists who have any regard
for themselves or their profession pre-
fer not to get even at all, rather than
to get even in that way.--Champion.
