Savonburgh, kans., Dec. 18th.
We have had quite cold snap for the
past few days but the weather is now
moderating.
Mr.. Albert Huff and wife are at lola
trying to settle up their affairs.
We had the pleasure of visiting the
literary and debating society at Sunny
Side school house last Wednesday night.
They had a good time. The question
debated was, Res, That the Indian has
more right to complain of the treatment
received at the hands of the white man
than the Negro has up to the time of his
freedom" After good deal of talking
on the subject the judges decided in
favor of the affirmative. Their paper
was good. 1t is called the "Sunny Side
Gazette" Edited by James Lakin. The
society at this place is still fourishing.
There is some disease among the hogs
at this place. Several have died.
Mr.. Editor, please excuse me this
week as news is scarce. KENN.

As Usual.

If there had been any doubt before as
TIA the election of Republican President
In 1880, that doubt is now dispelled. In
their eagerness for power to even slight
and unimportant degree, the Democracy
have again shown the cloven hoof by the
action recently taken by Gov. Garcelon,
N Maine. 1t Ii sufficient to state that
The Republicans carried Maine, fairly
and honestly, and that the majority in
the Senate and House was large enough
TO convince the most skeptical that it
could not have been done otherwise than
IN a right manner.
= BY refusing to recognize a law .of
Maine declaring it unconstitutional,
GOV. Garcelon and his coadjutors count
il Democratic majority. We do not
ere argue the case but simply present
tie fact that New York, Ohio, Pennsyl-
ttaia, California, Oregon, New Jersey,
;Innecticut, and all the doubtful north
ri States except Indiana are controlled
b. Republican legislatures. They will
see that the Maine example is followed.
= re fight for the Presidency is now con-
i.aei to the fight for the Republican
domination.

Schools reported small but progressive.
The 'hedge FLASHER" has been in this
region and did work for E. H. Toby and
Others. 1t lays the hedge that is from
four to ten years old down at an angle OF
perhaps 500 and it is tied in that posi-
ton with wire and we thin it will make
a hog tight fence of a good stand of hedge.
Mr.. II. Travis has finished q good
house just east of J. ID. Carriers and now

'saly, but Natural to the

There seems to be little hope tina
the editor of the Humboldt Union will
lever overcome his insane Jealousy of tn,
editor of this paper or cease his lying en-
beavers to injure us. Commenting upor
some "Law and Order Resolutions" pass
ed somewhere by somebody sometime
we stated that there was no such associ
alton that could rightfully claim to bs
an Allen county organization. This the
Union says is untrue and states that We
knew it,
Now we defy the Humboldt Union
noted for its truth and varacity, () ia
lind any such organization in Geneva
Deer Creek, Usage, North Marmaton,
Elm and lola township. And their ter.
rltory comprises over one half the coun-
ty. In Elsmore and South Marmaton We
do not believe any such organization
exists.
Now stop your tricks and just put forth
any proof that will implicate any of the
above townships first named. That a
few men in Humboldt may have organic.
ed and styled themselves an Allen couns
ty association may be true. But we do
not recognize any such organization up
this way. And finally, to Close the mat
ter, we can say that no such organization
is needed in this county, to our knowl-
edge at least
So far as injuring the trade of any
portion of the county is concerned, it is
simply fair sample of the bray usually
INDUCED in by our puffy little fellow
down below, and was printed for effect.
1t is, of course, utterly false.
LATER.-Since the above was in type
the Inter State, published at Humboldt,
has notice in its advertising columns
offering $25 reward for man charged
with resisting an Officer 1t is signed {:
s. H. Stevens, President: c. P. Ives,
Secretary. From which we judge there
is an organization OF the kind spoken of
above at Humboldt. We know Col.
Stevens and Mr.. Ives and they are good
men so far as our knowledge extends.
We still cling to the opinion that the
proper officers are fully able to admins,
ter the law and that the people of the
county generally are as law abiding as
can be found anywhere in the State.

Fair Lawn Notes.

Fair Lawn, Dec 18th.
Our. reportorial ramble of the past
week resulted in very little news.
Rev. L. L. Holden preached last Sat-
urday night and Sunday. Rev. j. S.
Kline will preach next Sunday at the
usual hour.
We made mistake two weeks ago
about Keith's and Rhoadcs 8 millet.
They threshed, respectively, 80 and 125
bushels instead of 60 and 100 bushels as
we stated.
Several horses have died and many
more are sick with the different forms of
the disease known as water farcy. A
prominent veterinary surgeon of Fl
Scott says: "Horses app ar poor with
out apparent cause, loss of appetite. and
sometimes one of the eyes becomes
watery and in q short time becomes
white, and tbs horse cannot see out of it.
Sometimes they swell in the head or
legs, but ofener under the abdomen
from the breast to the groin. The cause
is too much thin or alkali blood" His
remedy is: 'Bleed from six to eight
quarts and then feed him two pounds of
my condition powders" His powders
are composed mostly of iron and cost 81
per pound. When asked how it was
possible for horse to have thin or alkali
blood when fed upon the best of feed
and watered with pure cistern water he
said: at is the air that causes it. A
barrel of rainwater when left exposed to
the air will harden in two weeks, conse
quently the air poisons the blood" As
far as we have seen we can recommend
his powders as the best in use. He saws
that he will warrant two pounds of his
powders to cure the worst case of farcy"
If anyone has horse sick with this dis
ease we would recommend them to go to
Fl. Scott and get his advice.
Mr.. McGlashan has been to Parsons on

Wednesday evening of last week, at
Allenbaugh school house, ROcklOw post
office, MarmatOn township, young man
named Herschel Mclaughlin was shot
through the breast by William Jennings.
Mclaughlin fingered until Saturday
last and died. eA
The particulars Of this brutal murder
are u follows: Jennings, q young man
OF about 20 years of age, had been pay
ing attention to a neighbours daughter,
and had heard that Mclaughlin had
made some sighting remarks about
them. This coming TO Jennings ears he
became angered and was probably insti-
gated by revenge in his murderous act.
Wednesday evening the parties met at a
debating society and almost Immediately
upon the arrival of Mclaughlin Jen.
nings and two companions went outside.
Here they were overheard talking about
killing Mclaughlin.
During the recess the three, Jennings,
Theodore Hamilton, and Seth Stewart)
came into the room and after q parley
invited or dared Mclaughlin out doors.
Although previously warned the latter
treated the matter as joke, and went
out. Young Jennings then demanded
to know whether he had made the state
ments. Mclaughlin denied the language
and said he would tell him what be- did
say. Jennings thereupon drew back and
shot him. Immediately leaving and going
home where he secured horse and lett
for parts unknown. Parties at once
started in persuit. Monday he was ar.
rested by j. o. Clark at Montrose, Mis-
souri,. and brought to the State line,
where, after some sharp manoeuvering he
was seduced over the line and was imme.
diately captured by A. NJ. Atkinson,
who in conf any with Mr.. Clark, brought
him to lola where he now is in Jail.
A warrant was also issued for Hamil.
ton and Stewart, as accessories, and they
were placed in Jail. There will be no
preliminary examination of Jennings as
he was arrested as a fugitive from justice.
The preliminary examination of his sup.
posed accomplices was being held yester-
day afternoon as we went to press We
do not here give all the facts as we learn
them for the reason that it might cause
some difficulty in securing a jury. We
can say, however. that it seems to have
been dastardly and unprovoked murder.

The Western Spirit says that Paola
merchants frequently have to pay as
much for freight from Kansas City to
Paola as the same goods cost rom Chi
cago to Kansus City; and thinks it un.
just on the part of the Fl. Scott R. r.
1t is the exception, we believe, that
freight from Kansas City to lola does
not cost double the amount from Chica

corporations have no souls and in these
days of pools, even two railroads do not
help the matter much. Some day the

unflinching champion of that Republicanism
which came into power IN time to save the Union

the war forced upon US by the rebels Of the
South, aided by the Democrats of the North:
We have opposed all forms Of compromise and
Cancellation that seemed to aim Ut restoration
to power III this country of the men and the
organization which involved US in the horrors OF
civil war. The Democratic party is now in the
field for the next Presidential election with the
doctrines of State rights and notification en-
blazoned upon its banner. Ii successful, it will
most assuredly carry out its promises to repeal
all the legislation necessitated by the war and its
results, and will inaugurate policy which will
encourage and assist another attemp; at secession
and rebellion This is what the boast of the
''SOlid South'' means. There Is but one anti
dote for Solid South and the untold evils which
it threatens, and that is Solid North, united in
Nation in section which sent forth its loyal
legions TO crush rebellion and restore the integ-
rity of the Union: Events have Enthusiastically
pointed To Gen. u. ). Grant as the inevitable
candidate of the Republican party for this great
contest. There are Others as worthy as he but
there seems TO be no man certain to consolidate
in his favor all the elements Of success. Hence,
we have supported and urged his nomination
keeping in view solely the welfare of the Repub-
lcan party and the best assurance of its triumph
