THE RAGING POLITICIAN.


Nothing is truer than the following from
the junction City Union: There is talk of
new daily Democratic paper at Kansas
City. rs a result Of the Times course to-
ward Judge Phillips, Democratic nominee
for congress. The man who il this dav
and generation -predicatcs 4 newspaper en-
terprise upon political grievance, unless
possessed of an ineXhaustibe purse. will
find himself wearing linen buster in the
middle of January. Not newspaper in
Kansas City or elsewhere owes its prosper
lily to politicians or candidates \ great
many newspaper enterprises have origin
ated in the hot haste OF politicians 10 ret
even with incorrigible editors for dciin-
Guencies real or imaginary. Usually the
management of papers organized on this
plan devote so much time 10 IA fruitless ef-
fort To mop the earth with their rival that
none Is left to bcSlow upon the preparation
OF an acceptable newspaper.

WICHITA 6 TRINIDAD.

The st. Louis GlobeDemOcrat says that
The Wichita & Tainidad road, whose sur
vey has been lately completed between
Wichita aud Harper, is simply an extcn-
sion Of the Rock Island road" We hope
so, but Wichita has never had assurance Of
that fact, unless the mere hints Of individ-
ual directors could be so taken or held
The proposed line or survey would prove
tho most feasible outlet for the Rock
Island to the southwest through Harper
aud Medicine Lodge, but fully as valuable
as an on let to the Frisco line. The Santa
Fe. had it used good serse and less preju-
dice, would have occupied this line long
since. However, is is a very valuable line,
and will be utilized by some one Of the
great lines here il the near future without
doubt

THE RECEIvERsHIP SUIT.
Topeka Commonwealth.

] Topeka Commonwealth.
In the case Of the Union Trust company
of New York VS.. the St. Louis, Fort Scott
& Wichita railroad company, which is a
foreclosure of the first mortgage upon the
road, and which case has been in the Uni
ted States circuit court during the past, the
second mortgagee filed an answer and cross
bill. setting up its mortgage and rendering
| to the trustee of the first NOR; gage the
amount of the first mortgage. and asking
| to redeem from the same and he subrogsted
| to the rights of the first mort gage. and are
| closed and sell the property. When the
case was called in court the
counsel for the Union Trust COM
pany, Rossington, Smith 6 Dial
las, offered, upon the showing that the mo-
ton to redeem was made in good faith, not
10 press the motion Of the trustee for the
appointment of a receiver of the road
James Hagcrman, the counsel for
John F. Dillon and George J. Gould,
the trustees Of the second mort gage, made
showing that the bonds under the second
mortgage were all held by the Missouri
Pacific railroad company and that the
directors of the Missouri Pacific railroad
company has passed resolution directing
the treasurer of the Missouri Pa
cific railroad company to pay
the amount due upon the first mort
gage and redeem from the same There
upon Rossngton, Smith & Dallas, as solic-
itors for stockholders holding about ST.
300 900 worth of stock, asked leave to file
Il petition of intervention to the original
bill! and cross bill, and to defend for the
against SO many of the first mort
gage bonds as had been acquired by the
Missouri Pacific Railroad Company on &C
count of construction. and also to defend
against the validity of the second mort
gage.
After hearing argument by counsel the
court directed an order Of reference to a
master to find the number and amount of
bonds under the first and sec
Ond mortgages, and the amount due the
Union Trust company for expenses, ser
vices, etc, and also an order of reference to
a master in chancery to find the facts con-
corning the particulars of the stockholders |
and to report under both orders by the first |
Monday IN January, at which time the |
court will pass final decree upon the first |
mortgage. and will consider the question of |
the stockholders to intervene |
upon the facts reported by the master. 1t |
is likely that the whole matter will be adj |
justed in short time
The amount Of the first mortgage is now
over 81, GOO, 600, and is being III
creased by the construction of extensions |
from day to day. The second mortgage |
was orr finally 5 900, 600, and is being in
creased by the construction Of extensions
1t the rate Of s., goo per mile.

PEKIN, Illinois, Nov q, 1886
To the Editor of the Eagle.
DEAR SIR:-Will you be kind enough
to give me space in your columns to correct
q few statements concerning myself, which
was published in your paper of the 10Th
instant?
The article was headed, Bury him and
send me the rest, and was false from be-
ginning to end, as | can prove. First, War
rem McAboy was not my half brother, but
my father. Second, never sent a tele-
gram wordcd as was stated above. Ny
telegram ran thus: Bury him there; will
write today" which l did to Jas. Robson,
Of Towanda, Kansas, who sent me the
message
In the lettc7l gave my reason for having
him buried thee, and also especially di.
rected the Mr.. Robson to see that his ex-
penses were all paid. az 1 supposed he had
money enough for that, and to send his
personal effects to me. Third, | never
borrowed "a cent Of him; either when in
business or afterwards.
McAboy was in business with my brother
and myself about three months
when we first started up here
almost eight years ago and not liking it
sold cut his interest to my brother and re-
ccivcd full payment, can show by the books
and papers in his possession, and since then
neither Of Us have had any business tran
sactions with him whatever.
I am deeply indebted to the unknown
friend who sent me the paper, thus giving
ne an opportunity Of vindicating myself
against such malicious untruths as was
stated in the article 1t isa serious thing
to publish such statements against any
man, particularly when based on rumor,
and the least your reporter can do is TO
give the truth as wide circulation as he
did the falsehood, and through the same
medium. Yours Resp'y,
Preston p. PERRILI.

New York Tribune: The president
wrote an unnecessarily long letter about
Dristrict Attorney Stone. The difference
between the Benton and Stone cases is pal
pablo and can be succinctly stated. One
official made Democratic speeches during
the canvass and the other Republican
speeches. The Democrat accordingly
stays in and the Republican goes out. 1t
il very simple matter. The president,
owing to his diffuscness Of style-a grow
ing fault, by the way-makes plain issue
of facts needlessly intricate.

buildings were badly damaged. The
building Is heated by steam from the

cause Of the fire cannot be accounted
for. No Il was injured.
