WE ARE MAKING NO MISTAKE.

The EAGLE must not mistake us in our
ranIv 10 his threat of 'Forcible Resist
ance.'' We do not wish Mr.. Murdoch to
misunderstood us, nor think Tor one mo
ment that we, almost Stranger IN the
state. would attempt the task OF suggest
ing to him, much less 10 enlS hteh MIN Oh
the spirit OF Kansas. We only express our
sunrise that one who has led so long IN
The good way should now refuse to even
keep pace with the times. We nave placed
= very high estimate OF the abilities and
earnes1Dess OF the great editor or the
matchless EAGLE and 1t grieTes Us to read
MS threats of insubordinatlon provided
the majority of the moral people OF the
state should institute measures to enforce
a law aC7opted by them. Had we not had
some bitter experience with those who re-
belleC against the law in Iowa, and dId
we not know the benefit CT the Search
and Se.zuren law in aiding in the en-
forcament we would not urge its adoption
here. True we have not been long cltl

be as able TO suggest the needed leglSlatlon
as be. We are not saying Mr.. MURDOCH IS
not honest in his opinion, but we DO can
didly think he is making great mistake
when he adopts Calbounism to. deter tie
neople from using all reasonable means to
enforce a law they have made.-Meade Re

We are not mistaken, my dear sir.
The man who has a sore thumb man
ages to run it into and against every
thing and everybody. The Republican
party has other interests than that of
prohibition. Prohibition may be the chief
concern of the Republican party of Kan
sas, but it ought not to be the whole,
the only concern. Besides, Kansas dld
not borrow her prohibition ideas from
Iowa nor her methods Of enforcing the
law. The very thing that worries US Is
a fear that Kansas may make as dismal
a failure and as sorry spectacle of her
self as has Iowa over this very question.

The reported condition of affairs in
Stevens county ought to serve as an eff
fectual warning 10 every other county in
the state where there is the slightest
probability of a contest over the location
or removal of the county seat. Such
scenes as have been enacted in the
county named are not only exceedingly
damaging to the community where they
occur, but are hurtful to the good name
Of the state. 1t is a repetition of such
occurrences, often with no less excuse or
provocation, that has made Kentucky
notorious throughout the country as the
dark and bloody ground" notoriety
not to be coveted by any intelligent
community that makes pretense of OBJ
serving the ordinary rules OF civility and
the observance of legal requirements. 1t
is to be hoped that Thursdays deplorable
transactions in Stevens Will serve to end
the unfortunate strife, and that here
after wise discretion will take the
place hot headed impetuosity in dealing
with matters involving not only the
peace but the material interest of the
people concerned, and that includes all.

ANOTHER CHESTNUT.

The Chicago Herald has struck a new
lead of pay dirt. 1t publishes the rec
ords of a convention held eighty-six
years ago to show that the grandfather
Of the Republican candidate for presi-
dent was in favor Of allowing slavery in
the territories. Thus" exclaims the
Herald. .if old General Harrison could
have had his way, slavery would have
obtained a foothold in the northwest.
Thomas Jefferson tried to keep out
slavery. General Harrison did his best
TO establish it here"
Democratic papers, when it suits their
purposes, can go back to slavery and
ante bellum days, but if Republican
paper even so much as refers to the last
Democratic administration, the wall
goes up, "Oh. now you are waving the
bloody shirt again.
By the way, Republicans used to tell
Democrats, when they were upholding
slavery, That jefferson was opposed to
1.-The peculiar institution" at that
time they denied it with virtuous indig-
nat on.
Such are Democratic tactics. Jefer-
son is cited in defense of slavery and as
opposed to slavery-as in favor of pro-
lection and opposed to protection-ac-
coiding to the time, the place, and the
people the campaign orators and organs
are speaking to.
If jefferson was on all sides of these
questions it must be true, as claimed,
that he was the father of the Democratic
party.
After all what has the record of the
elder Harrison on the slavery question
to do with this great campaign of prin-
ciples.
