Should we be so fortunate as to secure the
crossing of the S. K. railroad and the Ft
Scott railroad at our town, there is no
doubt but what we would make one of the
best towns on this side of Wichita. Our
citizens are all jubilant over the present
bright prospects for this new road.
Anticipating boom in real estate trans
actions at this place, the Courier Land
Agency is making extensive preparations
so that they Can receive all strangers in a
proper manner. They have good rigs to
ride them oyer the country in free of
charge. This firm is doing some hard
work for the success of our town and coun-
try, and should receive liberal patronage
from all interested in the future of our
city.
Mr. Dressel, of the Wichita wholesale
house, was in our city Thursday and sold
our merchants quite large bills of goods.

Henry Anderson, while in Peabody last

handsomest carriages our country affords.
There is considerable talk of putting in
water plant at our town, on a cheap scale.
We have within one mile Of town one of
the finest springs of water that we have
ever seen in the state. 1t would furnish
water enough for town of seven
or s, 900 inhabitants OF course talk is
cheap, but then we are strongly of the
opinion that these water works will be in
operation before another year rolls around
The probable expense would be $4,000.
If everything now under headway in our
town is made to work successfully we shall
soon be q city of two or three thousand in

Comments of the British Press.

Comments of the British Press.
LONDON. April 9.-The newspaper
throughout Great Britain and IrelanI
comment at great length on Mr.. Glad
stones scheme for an Irish government.
The Liverpool Post says that whether
Dir. Gladstone is successful or not in car
rying his bill through parliament, he ha,
surely killed opposition and coercion IL
Ireland.
The Manchester Guardian says it is q
scheme substantially for the repeal Of leg.
~islative union between Great Britain and
Ireland. The representation Of ireland
at Westminster must be retained. Then,
with this modification, the measure may
pass.
The Newcastle Journal declares the
scheme to be cumbersome aud unwork-
able, and certain TO be rejected.
The Newcastle Chronicle says:
Though the measure may admit OF i'm
provement in detail, it is the best scheme
ever presented to parliament"
The Edinburgh Scotsman says; The
bill will not do as it stands. The exclu-
sion of Irish members from Westminster
will be fatal. Mr.. Gladstone has APP
preached the subject with an heroic
spirit. but his desire to be generous to
Ireland has carried him too far. He was
asked to give home rule. and he proposes
to give repeal. 1t is safe to say the coun-
try will not sanction the scheme"
The Edinburgh daily Reriep recognizes
G~ladstone's pure, lofty and patriotic
aims, and says it is disappointed at the
exclusion of the Irish mtmbers from the
imperial parliament. n4
The Edinburgh Scottish RJormer com
mends the scheme and pleads for Scotch
home rule.
The Aberdeen Journal pronounces the
proposals repulsive to every instinct of
the British people and fatal to Giadstone's
reputation.
The Liberal papers, the Aberdeen Free
Press, Glasgow Herald, Belfast Wing,
Londonderry Stan dard. all oppose the
bill. The Leeds Mercury says it is in
g%enious, able and original. The Dublin
Fireman. Journal approves the scheme
The Dublin Irish Times and Dublin Ea
pres both disapprove OF it In Cork
there is excitement over Gladstone's pro-
p%osals, but the general opinion of the
people il favorable to them. This after
moons London Globe ~pronounces the bill
a ''rhinly yelled project for total separ-
alton and says the measure is already
doomed to failure. The Pail AEaH Gazette
devotes its leading article to the bill and
heads the article This won't do" The
editor repudiates the scheme and says
that as it stands it places a premium on
separation.
The Standard says: If Lord H~arting-
ton is prepared to act on his own advices
the fate of the Gladstone scheme is sealed
already. 1t is rumored that the land bill
proposed to give the task Of collecting
land revenues, after the appropriation of
Of landlords to an imperial board which.
under Mr.. Gladstone's proposals would
collect the excise duties. This board
would be responsible for IN annual
contribution to the sinking fund
and the repayment Of the imperial ad-
vances. THIS will be a charge not merely
upon the revenues Of the land, but upon
the whole of the revenues Of the board,
after the payment Of Ireland's share of
the Imperial taxation out OF the excise.
Thus any loos by the nonpayment Of rent
will fall upon the Irish exehequer.
