THE TOWNSHIP BOND QUESTION.

In another column will be found a full
report OF the proceedings of the meeting
held in Washington township. last Sat.
urday, to consider the question Of town.
ship bonds. In our issue of January %
we printed, in full, the law under which
any compromise must be made, the
amount of the various debts, and all
other practical information attainable
regarding the subject. The meeting,
to-day, at Mayview, will largely deter
mine, Tor all the townships but Lexing-
ton, what Is to be done. We do not
propose to enter into an elaborate dis
cussion of the matter-the people have
pretty we'll made up their minds, and
the moment for action has arrived. We
do desire. however, to say, that in de-
batting the matter all prejudice and feel
ing should be laid aside. and such action
be taken as will conduce to the general
good. The tendency of the times is to-
ward Capitalization and toward acaui-
escence In the decisions OF the federal
supreme court. We are being crowded
closer and closer into the corner every
time a new decision is rendered; still,
We believe that the bonds can never be
collected while the state supreme court
stands as 1t does now, provided the peo-
pie act together. Are they united on
the question: Lafayette county has
gained four or five thousand in popula-
ton during the past four years. She is
beginning to feel the revivifying inau-
d of new blood, new muscle, new
money. Can she afford to remain In a
state Of revolution for ten or twelve
years longerP Will it not cost ten times
as much as to pay a reasonable compro-
mlseP Is it right to leave the settlement
OF the matter to our children We may
say, with Sir Boyle Roche. '.Posterity!
What has posterity done for usP" but
will it be far to bequeath to the next
generation a large debt which may now
be reduced, by proper management. to
bearable proportions ? Washington
township has acted wisely. Her exam.
Pile should be followed. We want i'm.
migration to the county. We want to
divide our large farms INTO small ones,
better titled. We want good roads, adj
ditional school houses, near neighbors,
more churches. We have a great u
ty, and people are beginning to find it
out. Remove this incubus of litigated
debt. and buyers will flock in, money
will be plenty, and our fields will bios
som as the rose.

Thomas Buiord, who killed Judge e.
iiott for a judicial decision which he did
not like, has been tried a second time at
Owenton, KY, and acquitted on the
ground of insanity. There was no doubt
of the murder-it was a wanton and cru
81 one--and now, by law, this man is
turned loose upon society because he is
proven to be insane enough to kill his
iellow-man. The Courler-Journal, in
speaking of the matter, says:-"The
accomplished, but unfortunate lunatic
will probably retire to ar asylum for Q
few weeks, to recover from the effects
of a nearly two years. confinement,
which resulted from a public mlsunder-
standing OF his case" This is very
neatly said, and, according to the pres.
ent code Of legal ethics, may be looked
upon as severe comment. but it never.
theless remains true that there is a rad
ical wrong in laws, or their interpreta-
ton, which permit human mad dogs to
run at large.

The republican papers still continue
the effort to make it appear that Gen.
Garfield received a majority of the pop
uIar vote. In his reply to MI. Beck's
great speech on free ships in the senate,
the other day. MI. Blaine said that the
people had declared in favor of a pro-
tectlve tariff at the ballot box. Mr..
Beck replied that in 1876, when a full
and clear declaration was made by the
democrats in favor OF free trade they had
carried the country, and he added =
"On the question even now, with all the
money that could be drawn from the
subsidized corporations of the country,
whether the Bessemer steel corporations,
the national banks, or any other mo-
nopolY, the record shows that our can
didate, Gen. Hancock, obtained 4,444,-
313 votes as against 4,437, 981 for Gen.
Garfield, being a majority of the popu-
lar vote for Hancock over Garfield of
6 $3.50, SO that the popular condemna.
tion was against US as the senator al
.leges." Neither Senator Blaine, or any
other republican, challenged the asser-
ton.
