THE GREAT FIGHT OFF.

The Railroad Commissioners, on last
Thursday, passed the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, The Board of Rairoad CON-
missioners, on February ed, 1874, ordered
re-hearing OF the complaints of Great
Bend, Newton and Usage City against the
Atchison, Topeka e. Santa Fe Railway
Company, which was set for hearing on
March 9th, 1884; and
WHEREAS, Said re-hearing has been, for
good cause shown, extended until April 3,
1884 and
WHEREAS, In the opinion of the Board,
the granting of the re-hearipg in effect sus.
pended the operation of the rates Of tariffs
therein ordered by the Board;
Therefore, in the interim, pending such
re-hearing, il is the opinion Of the Board
that the tariff rates in force prior TO the
taking effect of said tariff of February 10,
1884, should remain in force. and the Board
also request said railroad company during
said interim TO cease taking airy further
steps towards the segregation of the branch
lines from the main line.
by order Of the Board.
Il j. TURNER, Secretary.
Mr.. Touzalin, on the part of the railroad
company, agreed to comply with the request
OF the Board and restore the rates in force
prior to the 18th of February, and also
agreed TO not cancel the leases with the
Branch roads. but continue to operate them
as heretofore as one road.
We congratulate the road, the commits.
sioners and the people on this happy solu.
ton OF the trouble. There will be time
now TO get full information on the subject,
and of such nature MS TO give the COM
missioners all the knowledge required to
arrive at just conclusions. The people OF
Kansas have learned much in the last thir-
ty days, and we hope that they viii learn
more, and that the whole question OF rail-
road freights will be SO presented that,
when 4 decision is reached by the commits
sioners, oil will understand Just how far it
reaches and what the effects will be.-Cons-

from one end Of the line to the other. He
does not plume himself on being great

that sort, but he is a thorough railroad

IMPEACH him.

The county attorney OF Atchison, who
had been criticised by DIR. Phillip Krohn, a
Methodist preacher. for failing to prosecute
violators OF the prohibitory law, called a
public meeting in which he proceeded to
resolve himself into an ass Of huge proper
tons. Among other things he said he
would spit upon the law, and that he defied
the law. abiding citizens to help themselve
or words TO that effect. We don't know
the officials name, but If he talked as rep
resented, he ought to be impeachcd and
onsted from his Office instanter.

A man who runs horse farm observes

The fact that n draft horse develops and
surpasses all the trotters. in no wise makes
any difference in the management of the

the common schools epentaaliy run the
country ought not to change our plan OF
education for the children as a whole.
1t is not emily duty, but it should be a
pleasure and privilege to assist in the es-
