THE KANSAS MIDLAND RAILWAY.

The Kechi township election to vote aid
in the sum Of $4,000 TO the Kansas Mid
land railway company occurs next Satur-
day at the usual voting place in that town
ship. The aid asked is light compared
with the benefits which will accrue to the
township by the building Of this railroad.
Mr.. E. p Ford, county clerkof Sedgwick
county. authorizes the statement, that the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad
through Kechi township, is assessed at the
rate of s6,S19..0 per mile, and paid in
taxes in 1885, in that township, the sum of
81 264 Is on 1-2 miles Of railroad and a
total assessed valuation Of Sik,050 We
can safely estimate that the Kansas, Mid
land railway viii have 6 IL miles Of road
in Kechi township, assessed at fully the
same rate ~ the Santa Fe, as this is TO be 8
main or trunk line, which would make
s44 050 worth Of taxable property in kechi
township, placed there by the Kansas Mid
land railway company. The average rate
per cent in that township is about PEI
cent. The amount Of taxable property
multiplied BIZ the rate per cent would make
81. .264. A.. which the Midland railroad
| would pay each year in kechi township.
The bonds they are asking are thirty veal
six per cent. bonds The annual interes
on 500 would be $500. From these
figures it can be readily seen that the rail
road would pay in annual taxes in the
the township S66i 45 more than annua
interest. This sum multiplied by thirty
wears. without simple or compound in
terest, makes the sum of $19, 933. 30 OF
nearly double the amount Of the bonds
asked for by the railway company. Adde,

wise to appoint this commission. That

the spirit Of the law Nothing is more

The lands reserved for the acconmoda-
ton of the Indians are undoubtedly much
larger in entent than is needed for their
wants and accommodations. There can be
| no harm in recognizing the gradual cur
rent slowly tending in the direction of civ

ritorv, as the Indians themselves become
consolidated upon fewer residential points;
but rapacity and lawlessness will not abide
the gradual and gentle method of change,

to displace law and treaty and the sense OF
obligation to both, and ride roUghshod into

such transgressors that their way IS hard,
