which he fought. If the time should
ever come, and it were necessary, there
are 10000 men in Maryland who would
stand for their cause as Douglass did

years to live as good citizen, and have

I have no sympathy with that slush and

What is this but as rank and malig-
nant talk as that which led to the fir.
ing on Fort Sumter?
He walked his hearers to loud ap-
plause by his allusion to JEFF Davis:
II recall the sentimentality exhibit
ed by some just before the 8Oth birth
day of Jefferson Davis, a man who, Of
all the confederates, has been singled
out by his enemies and branded by mall

ism. hope he will 60 down to his
grave with the disfranchisement his
enemies have put upon him, for 1 am
sure he has no desire for it to be other
wise, and would never accept the right
of suffrage except by unanimous con-
sent, of which there is not the remot-
est hope. Let him rest in peace in his
old age"
In the face of such defiant disloy-
alty-such glori6cation of treason as
this-can those who believe in the sac
redness Of our cause afford to relax in
their maintenance of the high standard
of loyalty? Not for an instant.
The Grand Army of the Republic
must still be on guard, with its old
time vigilance. 1t must meet the poi
son of these reasonable teachings with
the antidote Of patriotism, of unwaver-
ing loyalty, of devotion to country as
the highest of all duties. It is the
only organization which continually and
practically inculcates this grand lesson
upon the people, and Gen. Johnson s
words, coupled with daily-occuring
manifestations, show how imperatively
necessary this teaching is.
What pity no use was ever made of
that sour apple tree!

THE NEW NORTH AND
SOUTH RAILROAD,

Inquiry from many of our country
subscribers along the route proposed,
and from subscribers back east who
have land in the county, as to what il

what Is the prospect of its building;
and what they want prompts US r. give
the facts as near as they en- be learn
ed. The railroad is chartered by the
state and is proposed to run from rail.
road connection in the north part of
the state southwest to Dodge City,
where it will connect with the Dodge
City, Montezuma & Trinidad railroad
now being rapidly built southwest from
Dodge City. In the directory are gen.
tlemen from different counties along
the proposed line, H. P. Wilson rep
resenting this county.
If the survey shows feasible route,
and the counties, townships, cities and
towns along the route do the nice, fair
thing it will run through Mankato, in
Jewell county, Osborne City, coming
into thi. county west of Fairport, and
running through Saline, Catherine,
Big Greek, Hayes, Lookout and Smok-
ey townships to Nc Cracken, thence to
Basine, Jetmore and Dodge City. The
gentleman now at work at it are from
Dodge City, backed by Dodge City's
business men. Mr.. Gallagher, the
principal one, lately completed a road
from Dodge to connect with the Rock
Island. In that he was backed up by
the town Of Dodge in the survey; this
he took to eastern railroad men, who
found it practical, and who advanced
the money to build it, and now it is a
part of the great Rock Island system.
He proposes to do the same with the
proposed north and south railroad. He
asks the towns along the road to pay
for the survey and profile; this he will
take east and submit to financial rail-
road men and try to push it through
the same way. Whether he will sue
coed or not can only be told BY trying.
All the towns along the route have
raised the money for the survey. Hays
raised $1,000, and the surveyors have
started this way from Dodge City

TRAINS TO CHICA-
GO.

The Vestibu!e train is new factor
in western railroad transportation. 1t
is claimed for these trains that on &C
count of there being connected by steel
hoods all danger of telescoping in case
of accident is removed, the train being
practically one long car. tits Ger
tain that the oscillation of the cars is
greatly reduced, and it is also certain
that the vestibule trains afford the
greatest comfort yet known to travellers.
The adoption of this style of train by
the Chicago, Santa Fe & California rail-
way between Kansas City and Chicago
is strong bid for the passenger traf-
fc between the West and Chicago.
This new road is in many particulars
ahead of its older competitors, and will
undoubtedly be the popular road to
Chicago. tt

DODGE SCHOOL OF THEOL-
OGY.

DODGE SCHOOL OF THEOL.
OGY.
We think but few persons appreci-
ate the benefits that may accrue to the
property holders of this city by giving
proper encouragement and support to
The Dodge School of Theology. Let
us look at few facts,
l. The Methodist church has no
school of that kind west of Evanston
III.
2. The Garrett Biblical Institute at
Evanston has caused the property ow-
ners of Evanston to become wealthy,
and many are millionaires now who
would only have been in moderate cir
cumstances without the attractions the
school furnished.
3. Many of the wealthiest and best
families of Chicago live in Evanston,
and transact business in Chicago, be-
cause the school at Evanston has so
improved the state of society by its up
lifting power, and by attracting the
best class Of citizens that Evanston is
now called "the Athens of the West"
and this title it has justly earned.
4. The Methodist church is strong
in all the west. We have many col
leges, but no theological school west of
Evanston, and we see no reason why
we should not establish one in Dodge
City. Some city in the west will awak-
en- to the Importance of this movement,
if Dodge City does not, then some
other city will and our time of oppor-
tunity will have passed. Now is the
time to secure it by showing your ap.
probation of the efforts now being
made.
5. Some have withheld encourage
ment because it was supposed to inter
fere with other enterprises of an educa-
tional character. This is a mistake.
Rather it will aid and encourage them.
It occupies different field, it performs
a different work. It will aid and en-
courage every laudable enterprise, and
make Dodge City famous throughout
the union as centre of learning and
moral influence.
The Methodist church is gro wing to
be great power, and any city or town
that obtains one of her Theological
schools becomes at once . city of i'm
portance. In the near future there
will be q school of this character in
the west. There will be IN effort
doubtless to take it to Denver or even
to the Pacific coast. But having taken
the initiative in this matter, Dodge
City deserves the benefits accruing
from such an enterprise. Besides this,
Dodge City is soon to be city of many
beautiful lakes and groves, in
\ state that takes advance ground on
Ill questions of social and religious re-
forms. This is the place for such
school. Let every body encourage the
enterprise, and the prediction of our
citizens will be realize, viz:
"And We shall be as famous now for
.ighieousness a. we have been in sim
hing for long, long time"
