To the Editor Of the EvHEINs JOURNAL.
SIR Supposing the six ballots cast in
the Ninth ward on Saturday, June u,
should have read John X. Kirby,
or John any other letter Kirby, would
they, or should they have been countsd
for John w. Kirby simply because there
was no John X Kirby or Joha any other
letter Kirby ia the ward but
John w; or suppose six ballots
had beeu cast for John Kirby without
stating for what Office they intended to
vote would they have been counted for
John w Kirby for Counciig
The Republicans argue that we
cannst 60 back on the ticket
as Il reads; II this be 30, why not count
these six ballots where thew belong, and
as they read for John Kirby and not
for John W. Kirby? cannst
see that the Board Of Elections
or any one else have any right to guess
ballots IN can anything but what they
read This thing of Democrats allowing
themselves to be bull dozed from the
polls and being too timid to demand their
rights is demoralizing and weakening
the party. Let us have ballots counted

Settlers in the Western Part of the State
Suffering for Lack of Fuel.
TOPEKA, KAN, Jan. 9.-The State Board
of Railroad Commissioners is in charge of
the work of furnishing relief to destitute
settlers in Western Kansas and has invited
the cooperation of the various Kansas rail-
roads, most of which agree to transport relief
supplies free. The State Board announces
that Rawlins county seems to be the center
Of interest at present, owing to the immi-
nent peril of hundreds of lives and the re-
fusal of the only railroad in the county to
give free transportation to supplies, On
Saturday the Aid Commissioner at Atwood
wired the Railroad Commissioners that the
Burlington and Missouri River demanded
full tariff rates on corn and coal.
As several cars were then en- route for
which the people were suffering, the Com
missioners telegraphed the railroad COM
pany an urgent appeal to desist from Its de-
mands. This was declined, and notice given
that hereafter no supplies would be trans
ported free. The board is now ordering sup
plies for this locality to be shipped to Colby
by the Union Pacific or Rock Island
great need OF food, fuel and cloth
ing on account OF the present cold
weather. The mine owners In Usage county
who have heretofore been quite liberal,
have resolved not to donate coal to the suf-
ferers. on the ground that it may be stolen
or misappropriated, and further that the
State has coal mine of its own from which
it should supply those unable to purchase
fuel. In view of this fact, the Legislature
is to be called upon next week to provide
the destitute with coal from the State mines
at Leavenworth.
