From Neosho Rapids.

TUESDAY, March 20.
Items are the scarcest thing at the
Rapids. II is almost impossible 10 find
any as nothing is going on except the
railroad and that is going in hurry.
m. L. Richmond's family leave here
to take up their abode in Emporia after
tomorrow. We understand they in-
tend opening restaurant or boarding
house. - No new postmaster as yet.
The schools here are diminishing in
size rather rapidly since The weather
has been SO pleasant. ;, Houses are a
scarce article here aud butter is still
worse. Parties are plenty just at the
present time. Our Original Virginia
WaFblera were oVsr at Chicsgo Mound
last Thursday night and made the snug
sum of $15.. "A report is current that
one of Neosho Rapids incest boys
is intending to commit matrimony.
We don't know who the lucky lady is,
but hope to find out. More anon.

The absence of sectional animosity in

The absence of sectional animosity il
the deliberations of the late congress IL
considered g promising sign by the
Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun. He believes that the
Republicans have laid aside the wal
iPsues and that they will play no part
in the next PresIdsntiaI campaign.
''rhe political situation" be says, SIN q
number of States of the South, notably
Virginia, North Carolina, Louisiana and
Florida, is such that with wise manage
mont and the avoidance of stirring up
local prejudices, the Republican party
can contest for them in 1884 with very
reasonable chances of success" The
Republicans will no doubt have an en-
tirely new situation to face next year,
and it will be well for them If they rec
ognize the fact in season.

A large majority of the republican
papers commend cordially the new tar.
i'll law as q whole. The dissent is much
less than those who watched the com
ments of the press while the bill was
under discussion In congress, had been
led to expect. The general opinion is
also that it will strengthen the repubii-
can party in the country and add to its
chances Of carrying the next presiden-
tial election. The democratic papers
that frankly express their opinions in
favor of protection find very little fault
with the measure. The free trade or
gans and those that have NO convictions
on the subject are of course red-mouthed
against it. Their anger arises largely
from the fact that any tariff bill at all
passed.

DisgracefuI.

BRAIDwooD, ILL.,, March 21.-There is
liable to be some digraceful scenes at
the Diamond mines before the bodies OF
the unfortunate victims are finally laid
to rest. The corOners of VIII and Grun.
dy companies are both there for the pur-
pose of reaping a reward of S11 per
corpse for holding inquests, and each H.
sists that he is the proper person to do
the job. There is also said to
be serious trouble in the
ranks Of the relief committee
The water is now less than three feet
deep and it is hoped that the work of
removing bodies can be commenced
next Sunday. A fence is being built to
keep the crowd back when the work
begins. The mine has been explored a
short distance and it was found not
caved in. John Marshall, an escaped
miner, died yesterday from the results
of the nervous shock and exhaustion.

publican, the pet Of the Tribune
and the like. The Democrats have
not yet held caucus, but
probably will to-day and hence just who
will be their choice is not known. The
name of Judge Seagrave Smi h, however,
has been mentioned, and no better choice
could be made. Placing these two legal
gentlemen side by side-while it is urged
that comparisons are odious-the con-
trast must be striking. Judge
Smith, as criminal OF general attorney,
has no superior in our city, and as to
Cross-well, his legal ability is pretty we'll
known, and it is needless to make mention
of it at this time. If he wins in the con-
test every one will understand that it is
simply because the Republican aldermen
were pledged to support him previous to
election. Had the Republican caucus used
good sense it would have either nominated
G. 81. Benton or Judge Grove B. Cooley,
both of whom are eminent among those
of their profession in this city, and in
whose hands the litigations of the munich
pal government would have been properly
taken care of.
While the Democrats in the council are
still in the minority they are relatively
stronger than they were last! year, and
consequently have more voice. Let them
use that voice in the best interests of the
city by voting for only honest and capable
men for Office during the ensuing year.

The Br0yj2J Of -3sses.

The ultra Republicans who we're SO eZer-
cised because Mayor Ames blocked the
little game of stealing $1,000 for Prof.
Tousley year ago which was rendered
him from the public school fand in corsid-
era ion Of the valuable services he had rem
dored The Republican party III taking the
55ump and delivering bombastic and
spread-eagle speeches during various hotly
contested campaigns, are now bobbing up
Eerenely and shouting Justify for an in
junction against The aldermen who are
about to take $500 each for q whole years
services IN their official capacity
in accordance with the act of
the legislature amending our city
charter in that respect. The members of
the city council do not care q picayune for
the injunction. There is not one of that
body who would accept under any circum-
stances penny from the city unless he
was justly and legally entitled TO it. This
is true of Republican and Democratic al
derman alike. 1t is not, as matter of
course, party issue and it
is no one but conceited
and picayunish jackass who can interpose
the slightest objection to an alderman
drawing $500 for a years service for the
city. At that rate common laborer gets
more pay for the work done. The alder
men are conscious of the fact, and further
have had the personal assurance
that the Hennepin county delegation
to the state Legislature had in
contemplation the payment of this
salary when the law was passed. TIE
new law was in full force, and the old law
had been efeotually wiped cut when the
salaries CT the aldermen we're fixed, and
hence, as the law Is not retroactivethe sal
airy had to be fixed under the new law. If
these assinine kickers could steal 81, DOCTOR
Prof, Tou5ley from the public treasury
anf send It to him in Europe
| so as to insure his certain
return to Minneapolis to make stump
speeches for the Republican party Just so
soon as his term Of Office as minister
should have ended, they would throw up
their hats for JOY, as did Bill King when
he and his wealthy consplrators over The
victory Of the park scheme on Tues
| day, but when It comes to act
honestly with public servants
and allow them one-half the amounts they
have well earned, they howl like pack OF
chattering monkeys and bray like asses
But let the matter be tested in the courts
II the district court decides that the Ole
law was in force and that the aldermen:
salaries should have been fixed under it al
800 for the year, there is not one member
of the city council who will not cheerfullJ
| accept the decision.
