A stabbing Serape.

About 4 O'Clock Saturday after
noon an alteration took place be-
tween J. {. Powers, late manager Of
the Herald Co., and J. NJ. Davis,
resulting in what might have proved
serious injuries to the last named
person. The trouble was over the
proposed transfer Of the news fran
chise lately useC by the Herald, to
J l.. Brady, Of the Republican. Ii
has been announced all along that
the last named person proposed to
step into the HcrdId's shoes and
publish an evening daily. J. NJ.
Davis made the pretensiou that he
alone could transfer the franchise,
while Mr.. Powers, in behalf Of the
late Herald Co., claimed that the
franchise was in their name and
their property. Il was over this
matter that the fracas arose.
Davis attempted to strike Pow
ers with chair, and then
AAAN MN MlAh MS A1A III AAAE
face several times. Powers, in self
defense, stabbed Davis with a peck
et-knife once near the temple, once
in the neck and once in his side.
The report went out that Davis was
very seriously, and perhaps fatally
injured; but that evening he was on
the street apparently in pretty fair
condition, and is now about town as
usual. Powers was arrested, but on
the request Of Davis was Immediate
ly released. Davis is quarrelsOme,
but in his quarrels manages usually
to tackle someone smaller or weaker
than himself. People have long
since grown weary Of his repeated
attempts at balldozing somebody
after the approved Missouri bully
style. II he persists in these kind
Of fights he will not fail To meet the
fate Of all bulIes-"die with his
boots on"

There is no more paiHstaking
manager on the road than John
Halliday. He labors from early
morn till late at night 10 give the
people, wherever he goes with his
company, q first-elass entertain
ment, always demanding Of all
artists in his employ a Withholding Of
everything pertaining to the vulgar,
or which could in the least offend
any patron attending.
He is endeavoring to demonstrate
to the amusement loving public that
while NEGRO miDstrelsy" Of the
''lOng time ago" has deteriorated
among AngiO-saxon imitafors, there
still remains in the African race q
natural aptitude to carry out the old
plantation character and sing the
old darkey songs--SGH Lake, Utah.

There has been n great EXODUS
from Saline county since last Fri.
day. As the saying has been, "Ev.
erybOdy who had SIS. 20 has lit out. ~
The depletion Of our population 1:
quite noticeable. Ask for anybody,
snd the invariable answer is: 80, he
has gone east" II is Of course
impossible to enumerate all the
departures; nor shall we attempt
il. The Santa Fe road on Saturday
sold Il tickets to Columbus, and on
Sunday, "a. The two special coaches
which went to Kansas City Sunday
by this road, represented 10 tickets.
The Union Pacific on Friday sold %
Columbus tickets, Saturday, so;
Sunday 100. The Rock Island alto
gether sold about $50 tickets. The
Missouri Pacific did not accept the
rate.

Sunday as a party consisting Of
Miss Sophia Brown, Of this place
Mrs. McNltt, Miss Clara Bryant,
Mrs. Metcalf, AL. Grunblad, and
Mr.. Neal, all Of Lincoln Center,
were driving down the steep bill at
the Robt. Graf place, east Of town,
dog came rushing at the
horses, and frightened them SO
that they became unmanagabIe; aud
as the team reached the
foot Of the hill and turned
to the east, the carriage was
overturned and the inmates thrown
out. All were more or less bruised,
but Mrs. Metcslf very severeIy-heI
injuries being conclusion Of the

No one in Salina-exeePt it be =
few pOlltieians-seems TO be very
much in favor Of having another
evening paper. But ali seem to be
in favor Of = good morning paper.
The evening paper is confined solely
in its circulation to the town in
which u is published. With the
patronage iI usually receives it can
not be made such a paper as viii
reflect any credit upon the city, and
is really Of more harm than good.
It makes conspicuous the fact that
the place is unable to support a
better paper than itself. The morn
ing paper gathers its patronage
from all portions Of the state, and
has to be q good paper TO compete
with its rivals from Kansas City and
Topeka.

The objection Of J. N. Davis
against the scheme Of moving the
Abilene Gazette to Salina and con-
sOlidating il with the JOURNAL for
the purpose Of starting a morning
paDer, Is based upon the fact that he
has implored Mr.. ROhrer to buy the
old, crippled, played out Herald for
5000, Mr.. ROhrer promptly respond
ing that he had no use for the outfit.
Davis claims the JOURNAL property
to be worth only $1,000. Admitting
for the moment that il is only worth
that amount, the Herald property Is
not worth One-half that amount
Hence Mr. ROhrer's good judgment
in making q choice Of which paper
he wanted in his business.
