. MISTAKE SOMEWHERE.

We have been informed by Il party
whom we believed ought TO know the
facts that the assessment of railroad
property in Kansas for 1892 was about
100000 less than it was last year, but
upon reading the following statement
in the Topeka Capital we judge that
somebody has either been greatly mis-
informed or made grand mistake.
The Capital says:
The railroad assessment for 1892,
amounting to $5l,257, 620.25, is about
completed by the auditor of state and
the certificates are being mailed to the
counties having railroads. The valna-
ton is 1891, 794.6l more than 1t was for
1891, which is largely accounted for by
the increase of rolling stock added by
the different railroad systems.

rHr NEW ELECTORAL COLLEGE,.

THE NEW ELECTORAL COLLEGE.
In the electoral college TO be chosen
this year there will be 444 votes. OF
which 223 will be necessary 10 a choice,
says the Kansas City Journal. The
| increase since the last presidential cleo
ton Is forty-three. Twenty OF these
will be cast by the new states, namely
Idaho, Montana, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Washington and Wy
oming. The remainder twenty three
are the additional votes based on the
new apportionment of the older states,
as follows: Alabama, Arkansas, CAL
ifornia, Colorado, Georgia, kansas,
Massachusetts,, Michigan, Missouri,
New Jersey, Oregon, Wisconsin, one
each; Illinois, Minnesota, Pennsyl-
vania, Texas, two EACH: Nebraska,
three. 1t is easily seen that the increase
is largely to the advantage of the Re
publicans. The new states are reason-
ably sure to go Republican; possibly
one or two may go Democratic, but
this is improbable. The majority OF
tho additions in the older states 60
into the Republican column. With this
increase the Republican party can dis
pense with New York and one or two
other doubtful states and still be vic
torious. If the Democrats lose New
York, there is no combination within
the bounds of reason that will enable
them to triumph. The chances, the
candidates, the issues in all these par
ticulars the Republicans have. the de-
cided advantage in the coming
struggle,

The following pertinent remarks we
find in the Star Courier, and as they
arc fully as applicable to Baxter
Springs as to Columbus we reprint
them for the benefit of our readers:
There are some people In every
town, we suppose-we know there are
some IN Columbus-whom nothing In
a newspaper ever moves, provided al
ways II the affair Is of any Importance.
They seem to think that the editor, or
contributor, as the case may be, is jok.
ing, or that he is writing just for the
pleasure there is In ii. II he an
nounces that there will be a meeting
of the citizens at time and place
mentioned, for the purpose OF inaugu-
rating an effort TO cut down taxes, or
IL NAV be to secure, without cost, the
location of another railroad or TO es-
tablish a smelter, nine-tenths OF The
business men will pay no attention to
it whatever. This fact was fairly IL
lustrated last Monday. For several
weeks the four papers of this city have
said there would be a meeting Of the
citizens of this county, in this city, on
the 9th day Of June, TO complete the
organization of an effort to have Cher
okee county represented IN the worlds
fair at Chicago, in the year OF 1893
The 9th came, and fewer than twenty
persons attended the meeting. Two
were from the country. There was
not merchant of any kind present.
There was not banker there. There
was not carpenter or builder on
hand. No real estate agent put in his
appearance. We have mentioned these
classes, because they will be immense.

of vital interest; :" of measures "indis-

On Monday last the bill introduced

On Monday last the bill introduced
by Senator PETER TO "increase the cur
rency and provide for circulation, to
reduce rates of interest and establish
bureau loans" was taken from the ia
bic and PETER addressed the senate on
it. 1t provides for the appointment
by the president of three commissioners
to hold Office in Washington, whose
duty it shall be 10 establish loan agen-
cics, one at the capitol Of every state
and territory and other convenient
places, such agencies TO be known as
the central loan agency for that state
or territory. The business of these
local agencies is TO lend money to peo-
pic Oh the plan of well regulated real
estate and loan agencies secured by
real estate. The loans are to be not
less than 500 or more than 1880 10
one person or family. In order TO pro.
vide funds treasury notes are TO be
issued equal in amount to Tl.t0 for
every dollars worth of gold or silver
coin and bullion belonging to the Uni
ted States. At the end of his speech
the bill went over without action.

A question has arisen as TO whether
the worlds fair should BIZ dedicated in
Chicago on October u or October Il.
The 18th of October is generally
locked upon as the anniversary OF the
day upou which Columbus discovered
America, but as matter of fact when
that day arrives this year. four centu-
ries will not have been completed since
the interesting event. This is ac-
counted for by the change in the cal
endar, which caused nine days TO be
dropped, thus making the 2lst of Oc-
tober the Tooth anniversary OF the
discovery of this continent. Washing
tons birthday is celebrated on the 22nd
of February instead of the llth, the
former being in accordance with the
new aud the latter with the old style.
Other anniversaries arc fixed in the
same way. If it is proper to recognize
the 2snd of February as Washing:oA's
birthday, it follows that the 2lst of
October should be observed as the
4O0th anniversary of the discovery of

The Force OF Habit.

A business man of this city who has
peculiar views concerning the ameni-
ties of language, sent for one of his
clerks recently and said:
Simpson, am told you are in the
habit of using a great many expletives
in your conversation.
"Great scott! sir, what are. theyp"
asked Simpson in awestruck tones.
There, have the proof from your
own lips, you see, and desire more
correct form of speech from you in fut-
ure."
Holy Moses!" exclaimed Simpson
excitedly. ''were not running Y. NJ.
c. A. are we, sirp"
mo answered his employer, ''but ia
there any necessity for employing such
emphatic language in your daily con.
versationp"
"Great Cesar! How can man help
Il beg your pardon, sir, will set q
watch on my lips-it's the force Of
habit, know"
Mr.. Simpson bowed himself out and
his fellow clerks at once asked him il
he had been called in by the boss to
have his salary raised.

the presence of another crisis; one to
be fought out, however, on lines of
peace and with peaceable methods, the
results of which, in certain sense, and
80 far as material interests are con-
cerned, will be more far reaching than
the one fought with arms and in which
everything was lost. The raw mater
ialsof the South are worth thousands
times more than it's slaves were worth.
Democratic Southern leaders stand
ready now, as in the past, in order to
hold political power, to sacrifice these
mighty interests which should make
the South rich and her people prosper
GUS. Will the South, guided by passion
and prejudice, living over the past, un-
mindful of her opportunities, and nour-
ishing the bitterness and irritations
growing out of the war, refuse to listen
to reason and again stand by her leaders
in a contest where 30 much is at stalker
