KANSAS BRAG AND KANSAS DEsTITUuoS.-
Kansas relief agents are traversing the East, SO
liciting aid for the destitute in this State, while
the Kansas papers are boasting of the grand
crops produced in the State, the past season.
This. of course, causes much comment to the dis
advantage of DEMONSTRATING the best crops of
any State in the Union, and sending to other
States TO beg. We have frequently spoken of
this matter Kansas is not responsible for these
begging agents. They are, without exception,
cheeky beats, who are travelling at the expense
of Kansas sufferers, and who apply ten dollars
to their for every one they send TO Kan
sas There is considerable destitution in West
ern Kansas, but the State is able to take care of
Kansas are sending liberal supplies and are he
ing thoroughly organized to send still more, as
Winter advances. Doniphan County has been
contributing. Brown County is now completely
organized, and is furnishing large amounts of
aid. Major Morrill,. of that County, is alone
contributing fifty sacks of -four per week. 9th
Counties being organized for relief, and
Kansas will supply all the wants Of the destitute.
Relief agents travelling in the East, should be
sent home with flea in their ear.
We notice that an old seed named John Pun
shon has written a letter to a IIiawatha paper,
slangwhangiDg those persons who object to re-
lief agents going East. Perhaps PunshOn him
self wants opportunity TO take pleasure trip
through the East, ON the strength of Kansas suf-
fering. Let him contribute his share to aiding
the destitute, and il will amount TO more than
all his newspaper blowing.

WANT NEwsPAPERs.-The latest Democratic
scheme is to raise a fund of several million dol
lars, TO establish five or six frst-class newspa-
pcrs in various cities of the North, to advocate
clean-strained Democracy. The party is almost
without frst-class paper in the North, that it
can depend upon. The Chicago Tines, long a
staunch Democratic paper, several years ago
wandered off into the independent field, and has
been doing more against the party than for it.
The Cincinnati Enquirer is now travelling the
same road. The Democracy seem TO be perfectly
blind to the irresistible current of events. The
cause that is driving all men of enterprise and
progressive feeling out of the Democratic party,
is driving the progressive newspapers out. A
newspaper slavishy devoted to Bourbon Democra-
cy, speedily falls into obscurty, and dies ont.
Life and progress is necessary to keep paper
prosperous, and that surely leads them, first to
independence of the Democratic party, and then
into the Republican party 1t is the irresistible,
and newspapers, as well as men, must yield to
destiny. The world is moving, and they must
move, or 20 under. Democracy is of the dead
past, and is place for those who full of life
and energy.

GEN. ROsECRANs' QUEER CONDUCT.
hi. Chinesr Record Made Public Too Late
Indecent Abuse Of General Garfield Anrr the


SAN Francisco, Nov. There is question that
the M0rey letter had much to do in this State in
curing the large and unexpected vote given To Han
cock. last Tuesday. Many fair-rhinded but ignorant
people confused by the charges apd deniRls-
and settled the problem tAey conld solve, by
giving Hancock the benefit of their doubts The
result in the First District, however. is most
markahlc Of misunderstanding. The district is
solid against Chinese immigration and this issue
the record of Horace Davis the present member, is
clearly consistent, and ought to be satisfactory.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Davis has been set aside, and
Rosecrans elected in his place, who, it appears.
united with Col. w W. Hollister of Santa Barbara,
in petition 10 the President, asking him to veto the
Fifteen Passenger Bill. the ground that Chinese
immigration acceptable and n benefit to the
country. Had this been known before the election.
the First District would have been obliged aban-
don Rosecrans altogether, stultifcd its position
on that question. Roseerans is. however, proving
troublesome to his party already. At a serenade
given him few evenings ago, he said that he had to
regret that majority of the people of the United
States had elected thief and perurer President of
the United States. This declaration was of course,
in harmony with party tactics prior the election
but the merest novice in politics knows that snch
statements without excuse after election.
Decent and respectable Democrats disgusted at
the vicious and ungrateful conduct of Rosecrans
toward his former friend and comrsde. General Gar

Notwithstanding the part the tariff played
in tiattenng out the Democracy, their papers,
since the election, are again filled with the
threadbare and repudiated free-trade sophistry.
In this connection it is worth while to note that
the writers who pile volume upon volume to con-
vince the American people that the tariff is rum
ing them, are almost invariably foreigners-g,n-
orally Frenehmen or Englishmen, with an occa-
siOnal Scotchman. The English and French are
deeply interested in the efforts of the Democracy
to break down the tariff, that they may he en-
abled TO break down American industry, and
supply this country with their own goods.

~ We notice that large number of our ex-
changes are publishing the advertisement of the
Home Lamp Company, Of Cincinnati-on the
promise, we presume, of handsome lamp in
payment. The feeling runs down our back-b bone
that they will be swinded out of their advertise
ments. We have received three propositions, in
the last four months, from this concern, to pub
lish their advertisement on the same terms.
Each time, We wrote them that we w0uld accept,
if they would send the lamp in advance. Each
time, their excuse was that they were just out of
that particular style of lamps When all those
publishers send in their bills they will find that
the Home Lamp Company are just out of the
lamps. When publish that advertisement,
it may be set down as a fact that we have receiv-

- The last desperate resort of the DemOcra-
cy was to ruin Garfeld's chances by. forging the
Chinese letter. But since the election, the facts
relative to Chinese cheap labor are principally
against the Democracy. All through that great
Democratic region, the Solid South, they are I'M
porting Chinese labnrers by the thousands to
work on the plantations. They repel white Ia
bor from the North, and import Cinnamon.

about Blaine. They say that Garfield is to be

shoulder to Blaine and his friends. In the mean
