There are all sorts of rumors about what the
Kansas Pacific intends to do towards injuring
and annoying Saina, because Of that railroad
meeting last Saturday. Now our citizens need

A correspondent OF the Ellsworth Reporter
thus speaks of the territory west OF Salins In
1867:
At that time from Salina west to the Rocky
Mountains OF Colorado, q distance Of four hun
dred miles. by about three hundred miles
broad. there was hardly solitary farmer In
the whole domain.
Think of the change ten years has made!
There seems to be pretty general impress
sion among our citizens that Mr.. wellslaxer is |
to engage in the banking business in Mr.. Sher-
rims new room, and has even received several
applications for clerkships. Mr.. W. Is not in
any way connected with the business. nor has |
he any acquaintance with the parties he un-
derstands are to occupy the room. Mr.. WIS
office is with Messrs. Foster & Banks. and he |
has no thought OF making any change.
Some OF the boys about here who realize the |
truth OF the Spanish proverb that "A kiss
without mustache is like an egg without salt" |
are doing their level best to cultivate the soft |
down which periodically makes its appearance
onthe upper lip. When years shall have flown,
and that mustache shall have developed into
a real bristling ehecal de trise, impentrabe for |
the tender, regulation ruby lips.-then will
there be regret that so much time was spent
strapping that dull old razor over those unsat-
isfactory boot fronts.
Louis Schiller, one OF the Oldest citizens of
Salina. died Of lung fever last Sunday. He was
A years Of age. The funeral services occurred
at the Methodist church, on Monday afternoon. |
Mr.. Schuier first started in the clothing bust
ness here some IL years ago. His store was
in the south room of what is now the Pennsyl |
vania House. He sold his stock Of clothing in
about years time, and became stock dealer, |
which business he has pursued ever since. lie
leaves quite property to his widow and her
children.
The commissioners were busy with the NJ. \
X. & L. Railway petitions the first Of the |
week They have dacided that man who
pays a poll tax is not such Taxpayer as the
railroatl-law contemplates. They have strick- |
en- several hundred names from the petitions,
and as they now stand there are not enough |
signers. Theipetitioning will have to be done
over again, unless the commissioners will al
low supplemental petitions to be circulated.
Nothing more has been heard from the gen.
eral Office of the N. X. & L.
From the Tazewell County Republican, pub |
lished at Pekin, HIS, we gather the particu-
lars of large surprise party given MIR. and
Mrs Gllmun, who have purchased the farm Of
Mr.. Freeman kingmsn, on Gypsum creek, and |
will soon remove here. The affair occurred at (
their home In Morton, on the 18th of Deem
Der. Their neighbors gathered there from
miles around. bringing with them good and
substantial elements of comfort and good
cheer, and from the warm, rousing endorse
meut given them, We judge that they are just
such persons as we should like to See settled |
in this country.
We stated last week that Evander Light had
been arrested in st. Joseph, No., for compiled |
ity In a train robbery which occurred last
August; that he had been bailed out by the |
railroad Companies, and had returned to Sail |
ma. The case came up for trial at st. Joseph, |
last Monday. Mr.. light started for that place |
last Saturday morning; his attorneys, Moh- |
