Senator Chandler Dead.

Senator Zachariah Chandler died a
the Grand Pacific Hotel, Chicago, las
Sunday morning, from congestion of the
lungs.
Zachariah Chandler was born at Bed
ford, New Hampshire. December 10, 1918
and was near the close of his sixty.sixtf
year. He received only an academic ed
ucation, removed to Michigan while
young and engaged in mercantile life
He was elected to the United States
Senate to succeed Lewis Cass, serving
from March 4, 1857, to March 8, 1875
and again elected last February. He
served as Secretary of the Interior dur
ing the closing year of President Grants
econd term, and gained new laurels a:
an able ministerial officer.
There were greater men than Zach
ariah Chandler, but none of more exalt
ed and eager ratriotism,-none who low
ed the country more dearly or regarded
her honor more highly. 1t is also to be
said to his credit, that in an age and
time not noted for such virtues, he was
scrupulously honest, both as private
citizen and as public officer. The
country will miss Mr.. Chandler. He
was not man whose place can be filled
every day.

A novel election occurred in Chetopa
recently. Over. two years ago the Muir
ply movement swept the town pretty
clean, and at the spring election follow
ing the temperance people carried the
day, securing majority in the city
council. Since then there has been
something of reaction and the council
has been persistently importuned to
grant licenses. Finally the council de-
cided to submit the question to vote
of the people-men and women. At the
time set for this vote the ladies assem-
b'ed at the NJ. E. church, held prayer
meeting. and then marched in body to
the polls. They kept focking to the
polls all the afternoon, and completely
carried the day by storm of smiles, en-
treaties and earnest work; and 10! and
behold not one vote was cast for IL
cense. The victory was complete; 1S9
votes cast, 123 women and &c men vot
ing. and each and every one against IL
cense.i ri ..t

An Eastern outlet.

The Chicago & Alton railroad have
determined to build branch from Hig.
ginsville, Mo-, to Fit. Scott, Kansas,
which is to be known as the Higginsville,
Holden & Fl. Scott Railroad Company.
This, in brief, is the substance of an
article in the Kansas City papers of last
Friday.
We believe the management of the c.
& A. Z. r. to be one of the most enter
prising and substantial in the country.
We also believe that now our citizens
should be awake to the importance of
securing an eastern outlet. This, it seems
to US, there is fair chance of securing,
if proper steps are taken to present the
advantages of an outlet via. Holden
through southwest to lola or west by the
way oft. Scott. THERE'S large scope of
country east and northeast of lola that
within few years will sustain railroad
through it, and even now it is demanded.
Believing that the G. & A. could and
would build line through by the line
mentioned if the advantages were prop
erly presented, We urge our people to
talk the matter up at once. The prime
necessity for the road is admitted and
there is good fighting chance" to Sc
cure it. We are in good shape to offer
fair inducements for responsible road.
Other localities are not. We are sleeping
away golden opportunity. Gentlemen,
let us meet and consider these matters.

The Elsnore Trouble.

The citizens of Humboldt held claw
and order" meeting few weeks since at
which time committee of fifteen were
appointed to draft resolutions expressive
of the sentiment of that place upon the
recent trouble in Elsmore township, in
which it was claimed that al officer OF
the law had been maltreated and defied.
From the reading of the articles in the
Humboldt press the impression will go
abroad that Elsmore is to day infested
with set Of irresponsible, reckless and
dangerous men. Men who will for pure
deviltry do their utmost not only to check
immigration, but among whom it is act
-ually unsafe to go and live. The circum.
stances which led to this meeting have
been the growth of years. 1t is the old
land trouble again ION deck" OF the
more recent trouble-the assault of an
officer while in the discharge of his duty,
so claimed-we do not now desire to give
the facts as we understand them, for the
reason that the case will come before the
District Court at an early day for trial.
But in regard to the effect of the arti.
Giles which have already been published,
we wish to say that in our opinion they
had better been left unsaid. The i'm
preston Il stranger or an eastern man
would naturally have in regard to the
southern portion of our county will be
that it is a dangerous community. And
that the land league is terrible engine
of iniquity. A community should not
only be judged by the acts of its people,
but also should receive credit really due
them. For the second time in our life
we visited ElsmOre last week We
drove through several portions of the
township and met many OF their people
We found there old, we'll established
houses and fine cultivated farms, we
passed over good roads, and by we'll
filled granaries, corn cribs and stock
pens. We were treated courteously and
we'll fed. We saw fine country school
houses and the finest school yard, well
set out with thriving trees and surround
ed with good fences. the equal of which
in country school district we never yet
have seen in the State. In short, we
found an average Kansas community of
twenty years growth We were assured
that their community would and had de-
nounced all wrong doors and that all
they asked was a chance in the higher
courts. This latter, we understand, they
now have better chance of obtaining than
ever before And in conclusion, we urge
anyone who has gained the idea that the
Elsmore community is bad and dagger
Dus place to dwell or stop, to visit it be
fore making up their minds. Outside
appearances and reports are against them,
but the actual appearance of that people
and that community is good. That land
matter should be settled at an early day.
