Poor old John P. Samsel, late of Hia-

dead again. He sold his house and lot
in Hiawatha, for a good price, and then
he and his old woman started for Lon
don, as they said, where they had
friends. Arriving in st. Joseph, last
week, he got on drunk, and was put
in the calaboose, where he died that
night. He used to boast that he ''con-
sidered himself better than niggar,
YETI" but we have doubted if, for many
yeas. Now he is just about as good as
dead niger. ''-Kansas Chief.

We find the following in cores

a few days ago: SIN the southeast
corner of Davis county, some gentle
men from western New York, have
bought within few weeks, a whole
township of thirty six square miles.
They picked alF the vacant land and
most of the homesteads, paying good
round sum in hard cash for them. And
the best about it, the purchase is no
land speculation. They will, at some
central point, establish a creamery;
will bring along small farmers, and

A NOBLE TRIRUTE.

The Rochester Democrat and Chron-
icle says that two little girls of that city,
perhaps eight and ten years of age stop
ped before the Lincoln Clubs fine pict-
ure Of Lincoln, Displayed in Main
street store. s'The taller one asked
''Eho was Lincoln?.' The other one
answered, with charming directness and
simplicity, she was a great man; he
freed the slaves.''
How very short time it seems, to
those of us then living, since Mr.. Lin
coin was assassinated, and how vivid
were the impressions left ON our minds
by that dreadful event. In a speech in
this city, some years ago, Senator In
gals said that there was probably not a
person living in America, over fifteen
years old at that time, who did not re-
member where he was and, what be was
doing at the moment the news of Mr..
Lincoln's assassination was made
known to him.
These impressions are SO vivid we are
apt to forget that generation of boys
and girls, who know Mr.. Lincoln only
from heal say, or from the stories of the
school-books, have grown up since the
war.
OF the events and issues of that ire
mendious struggle; of the fierce white
heat of patriotism with which the lanu
blazed during it's continuance; of the
terrible sacrifices and sorrows and the
splendid heroism and self-forgetfulness
it demanded and inspired, they have no
personal knowledge. The whole story
IS, to them, as strange and impersonal
as the history of the Revolution, or the
campaigns of Caesar.
But this little Rochester girls tribute
to Lincoln was one that would have
pleased him, had he lived to hear it.
'sHe was great man; he freed the
slaves It was child's simple speech
but it expressed a great volume of his
tory. Long after the generation that
| bore upon their shoulders and in their
hearts the great burdens and sorrows of
the war, shall have passed away, this
will be the verdict of impartial history.
The great Emancipation could have no
nobler epitaph than the simple praise of
! this little child. champion.

THE RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS.

THE RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS
The execLti,e col n I'll has been en-
ceedmgiy fortunate in its selection of
the railroad commission, and three bet
ter men could not have been selected.
The Democracy is represented on the
board by Judge Humphreys, of Riley
county, an able, pure man of fine legal
abilities; while L. L. Turner, of Chau-
tauqua county, and Major Hopkins; of
Leavenworth, the two Republican can
didates, are men of whom everything
can be said in their favor and nothing
against them. The three gentlemen
represent combination in which good,
sound business sense-just what is need
ed could not be more strongly repre-
scented.
We are sorry to loose Major Hopkins
as warden of the penitentiary, a posi-
ton which he has filed with such re-
markable ability; but we have the salts
faction of knowing that he is transfer
red to one of the most honorable posi-
tons that there is in the state to-day.
The Times can assure the people of
Kansas that they have a railroad com
mission which will be just and honest
in all its dealings, and in which implicit
confidence can be reposed.-Leaven-
worth Times.

The Otoe lands will not be sold this
year as recently stated. The reason of
the delay is occasioned by the failure of
the House to pass the amended Otoe
bill adopted by the Senate d year ago.
This matter will now hang fire until
Congress shall take some action autho r
ling a disposal of the lands. People
who have been hanging around waiting
for the Otoe lands to be thrown on the
market, will materially improve their
present condition by coming out here

Western Nebraska. The soil is just as
