agreed that no return from any State

TO defeat . stringent temperance law
Its adoption win result in Constitution

sation, and sale of spurious liquors. alb
solately, aud place prohibition beyond
the reach of the law-making power,
stripping municipalities Of the authority
to restrain, to control, or TO protect
BY license or otherwise. As prolIibi-
sion measure it is farce, denying the
Legislature of the State the authority to
regulate. however strongly the people
might demand. During the pendency
Of the measure last winter we suggested

4 WuTERN CoNGREssMAN's VIEWS
The Democrats are very careful not to
give any definite opinion as to the situ-
alton OF affairs in Maine. Yet it is no.
ticeablc that those whose opinions are
worth the most, and who represent the
dominant force of the Democracy South
and West. very much regret the occur
rences in Maine, and fear that they will
have disastrous effect upon the party.
Mr.. Buckner. of Missouri, Chairman of
the Committee on Banking and Curren-

TERRIBLE IF TRUE.

The dispatches 10 the Denver Tribune
from Los PinOs intimate in strong terms
that theGwOrn testimony of the Meek.r

crime for which hanging would be too

From Los PinOs this morning there Is
a hint Of something which Colorado has
suspected for some time. II relates to
the women who were captured, and that
it is true beyond all doubt. Indeed,
their own testimony under oath, rs vet
unpublished, is the authority. This
fact Inns been in the possession of the
Interior Department for six weeks, vet
il has carefully concealed Il from the
pShlic. Al = time when q debate was
in progress In Congress in relation to
these savage ravisliers il kept from the
representative Of the Nation a story
which would have played . very large
part in teaching those representatives
the character Of the demons for whose
they were to loaislate. Ia

A JUST CLAIM.

We are glad to see that Senator Plumb
is determinedly pushing forward his bill
to secure to Kansas her five per cent. on
the amount Of public lands disposed OF
within her limits by the location Of mil.
litary bounty or land warrants. BY the
act Of admission Kansas, like the other
new States, was to have five per cent.
Ut the proceeds of all public lanes sold
within her borders, and IN consideration
Of that five per cent ON all lands sold she
bound herself not to levy any taxes on
United States lands until they were
sold. This was o fair and square bar
gam and Kansas has lived up to her
part to the letter, but we think that the
government has not.
The Executive Department has ruled
that the five per cent. was only to be
paid over to Kansas land the other new
States) when the lallds were sold for
cash, aud hence has refused to pay for
much the greater part Of the lands dis
posed Of ON the ground that lands taken
up by soldiers On land warrants were
not sold" Senator Plumb contends
that these lands were use to fulfil con-
tract Of the government to pay debts
uue these s0luiers ~ whom the warrants
were issued, aud henoe tho lands are rs
truly ''s0id" when disposed vi in tins
manner " when they were sold for
cash.
Senator Plumb is . member of the
Committee on Public Lands, and we
shall confidently expect u successful is

Importance, as it will give to Kansas
something like i've hundred thousand

whole Of our State debt.
There are seventeen other States who
are alike interested and Of course the
