NEWS CONCERNG THE NASH COUN-
TY RAILROAD.

Mr.. ]. r. Young, President of the
Atlantic, Henderson & Virginia Rail
road, (the Nash county or "Go1den
Belt" line), is off this week making a
canvass of the country along the pro-
posed route for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning the sentiment of the people
with the regard to the road and to find
out what action they will take toward
the building of the same.
There was a large and enthusiastic
meeting Of voters Of Shocco township,
Warren county, at Shocco Spring,
Tuesday, at which speeches were made
by Mr.. Young, Gen. Cheek, Mr.. Har-
rell and others. The people, white and
black, were enthusiastically in favor of
the road and unanimously voted in
favor OF subscribing the sum of $40, 900
to take stock in it. Yesterday there
was big meeting in Fork township,
Warren county, the result of which we
have not learned. The people down
that way are cred hot" for the rail
road, though, and we doubt not will
vote $4,000 or $50, 900 for it. That
is one of the finest sections we know
and no part of the country is more in
need of railroad facilities. 1t is a fine
farming community, the land producing
well of tobacco, cotton, corn, grains,
&c, while the timber alone is worth a
fortune to the land owners if it could
only be properly utilized. The people
down that way know what is good for
them and they are showing their wis
dom by holding out inducements to
secure railroad through that territory.
Mr.. Young will go on down into
Nash and will return the other way,
along the edge of Franklin ria Cedar
Rock and Dukes store to Henderson.
The amount of stock subscribed will,we
suppose, have much to do with deter
mining which route will be chosen.
Mr.. James A. Coppedge, 4 success
full farmer and substantial citizen of
the Cedar Rock neighborhood, in a
private letter to gentleman in Hen
derson, extends a cordial invitation to
the canvassers, right of way seCurers,
and surveyors to come to his home and
make it headquarters while passing
through and operating in his vicinity,
which shows that he is a strong friend
to the enterprise.
Others have sent out similar invita-
tions. The people all down that way
want the road and will help build it.
They appreciate the liberal and pro-
gressive spirit manifested by Hender-
son and eagerly they stretch out their
hands to meet such plucky and push
ing and .enterprising town and market
The outlook is very promising for
the building of the new road, and the
GOLD LEAF earnestly hopes TO see work
commenced on it at an early day.

Kansas.

AS the evidence accumulates it be-
comes more and more apparent that
Kansas has made magnificent growth
IN the last ten years, and that even
in the last year she has been blessed
with splendid prosperity. We pub
. hshed yesterday a statement made
by Secretary Mohler which shows a
gam in ten years of SO per cent in
the value of live stock, of SO per cent
in the value of farm products, 116 in
the assessed valuation of all property
and of 159 per cent in the amount in
vested In manufactures. Besides
this our schools gained 43 per cent
IN the numer of districts, Sc per cent
IN the value of school property and
Sc per cent in the number of child
rem In attendance. And the churches,
which are always a good index to the
prosperity of a country, gained lob
per cent IN the number of edIfces
and 164 per cent in the value of
church property. And when we add
the gain of over $4,000 in popula-
ton we have a showing that is a com
plete answer to the calamity cries of
demagogues who seek to create dis
content by false statements of the
condition of the state.
These lying statements have done
the state great injury. They are
published far and wide and must
necessarily hurt the credit of the
state.
We published yesterday, also, sta
tistics showing that mortgages are
being paid off in this state verv ran
IDLY. The indebtedness of the state
is probably 100000 less than II
was at the beginning of the year
And yet one of these calamity
shrIekers writes to the Pittsburg Dis
patch that the state is sinking deeper
and deeper in debt and no power can
save 1T from bankruptcy.
People who have anything to saw
except in praise of the splendid growth
OF our state are unworthy of a
homein this great, free common
wealth. They would destroy our

ing. and home by way of Minnehaha
Falls and Minneapolis. An afternoon
run to Lake Minnetonka is considered
an easy one, and is another of the regu-
lar trips INDUCED in by the muscular
devotees of the wheel. There is nothing
new or novel to st. Paulites, however,
in the spectacle of a couple of dozen
knickerbockered young men speeding
along the smoothly paved streets of the
city toward

The bicycle was long regarded as
machine adapted exclusively to the
sterner sex. The advent on the streets
of this city of a member of the other
sex, clad la Jenness-Miller and wear
ing perched roguishly OH her head
Tam o'Shanter hat, would have been
the signal for any number of obs and
abs from all the other women in the
vicinity, and would, in all probability,
have landed the fair blcyclist at the
central station under a charge of dis
arderly condooct, Mearphy" Yet the
other evening five we'll known young
ladies traversed the principal avenue of
the town. wearing the divided skirt for
the adoption of which the fair Annie
Jenness has fought SO strenuouSly.
They were riding bicycles. too, and,
more than that, they were riding them
with an easy grace which even the most
accomplished wheelman cannot boast
of. There was nothing of that labored
appearance which most wheelmen pre-
sent in the style of these five fair BIZ
cyclists. A gentle undulation of the
body in harmony with the movement of
the pedals, graceful poise of the head,
an equally graceful extension OF the
arms characterized the appearance of
the coterie. The costumes worn by all
were similar in design, if dissimilar in
texture. The leader, very handsome
brunette, discovering something wrong
with her machine, dismounted with
gaZelle-like bound and proceeded to eX-
anime it. The others came up with her,
diSmOunted in like manner one by one,
and crowded about to aid in discovering
the defect. A nut was loose on one of
the pedals. Out came tiny

expenses of travelling around from
place to place no additional compensa-
ton is provided. The time taken up by
repeated preparation of his cases and in
going from place to place will prevent
the district attorney and his assistant

others have done. The new arrange

by the district attorney and his assist

j. G. Donahower is the efficient and
accommodating marshal of the district.
He has only been in the office since
June l, but has become familiar with
all the duties. His deputies are: Col.
Sheehan, Mai. Bracket, w. S. Daggett,
T. H. Beaulieu, E. l.. Warren and Will
lam Bircher, of st. Paul; Maj. A. A.
Whitney, of Melrose; Oliver Peterson,
of Waseca; j. w. Howes. of Thief
River Falls. and number of other spe-
cial deputies assigned to secret service.
The duties of the marshal and his dep
uties are to summon the jurors and wit
neSses, make arrests, pay the fees OF
jurors and government witnesses, and
be in attendance at all the courts to pre-
serve order, take charge OF the juries,
etc. His work will be largely increased
by the provisions Of the law. bis COM
penSation for services is measured by
the amount of duties rendered. He is
directed to take charge of juries after
cases are submitted to them, and to
keep them together until after verdict
is rendered or they are discharged by
the court.
While some of the features of the an
Gent courts of England were engrafted
upon the law. it did not go quite as far
as that old law did in regard to the treat
ment of juries. That law provided that
AFTER the proofs are summed up in or
der to avoid intemperance and cause
less delay, the Jurors are kept without
meat. drink, fire or candle, unless by
permission Of the judge, until they have
unanimously agreed.
eff they eat or drink at all, or have
any eatableS about them without cen
sent of court and before verdict, it is
Unable. If they do so at the expense of
him for whom the verdict is found, the
verdict will be set aside"
Blackstone's Commentaries say:
And it has been held that if the jurors do
not agree in their verdict before the judges
are about to leave the town, though they are
not to be threatened or imprisoned, the
judges are not bound to wait for them. but
may carry them round the circuit from town
to town in cart.
