laws and make good ones.-Work-

old parties. Turn over the pages of
history, and you will find them one
5ieoA record of crimes committed
in the name of liberty. The old
parties are dominated by spoilsmen,
and when they have once gone for
ward, they never turn back they
never undo a wrong. The bad laws,
several and all, were passed for the
benefit of those who are gathering
in the wealth of the world, and they
will not be repealed by either old
party or, if they are, worse laws
will be substituted The Fugitive
Slave law was repealed by the
SWORD, and the indications are that
when others are repealed, the sword
will be an important factor. Read
carefully the vaporings of such an
archistic sheets as the Leavenworth
Times, and be convinced.

Governor Lewelling says he has
not recognized the Douglass house

to do ST., which is equivalent to say
ing that he does not recognize the

In 1864, desolating war was
sweeping over the country, and the
flower of the youth of the land was
falling beneath the rain of shot and
shell. In the utmost confidence
that none but loyal men were on
guard, they gave not thought to
anything but the suppression of the
rebellion and while the patriots
were thus engaged, those who posed
as patriots in the legislative coun-
ellis of the nation were betraying
the country into the hands of that
other army of rebels-the money
power-and that rebellion is yet in
full run, and will be until right
triumphs.

AFTER many years, old John Sher-
man has put on his war-paint, and is
vociferously yelling, "Liar liar ~
1t is no use, John you have been
weighed in the balance. Too many
of your contemporary congressman
say they did not know the demon
etization clause was in the silver
law of 1878 for you to come, at this
late day, with your denial. Be-
sides, when the bill came from the
conference committee, it was not
read. The clause was there when
it came from the committee it was
not there when it was given to the
committee. You was a member of
that committee-chairman, we be-
lieve-and whatever of odium at
taches to it you must bear The
evil of that days work is far-reach-
ing. 1t has made miIlionaires by
the hundred and paupers by the
thousand, and the grind is still on,

ed down to posterity coupled with
the most Infamous Legislation that

THE Garrett Eagle is in trouble
about the patients at the asylum at
Osawatomie eating bull beef fur
nished by the dressed beef monop-
olyA. Now, does any one know of
any objection the Eagle presented
when/cte patients at this same asy-
lum, under Republican administra-
ton, ate bull beef furnished by this
same dressed. beef monopoly? If
any one doubts that such was the
case, just drop note of inquiry to
George Gardner, Lane, Kas. Every
effort of the Eagle to pick holes in
the Populist administration uncovers
some of the ancient rottenness of
the Republican gang.

call great convention of the west
ern states at St. Louis and declare
commercial independence of the
West and South from the Eastern
states. We don't know just how
far the fool notions Of the Populists
leaders will lead them. Already
their anarchistic and reasonable
utterances have Disguised many Of
the heretofore friends Of free silver
and this worse than fool talk about
a new confederacy, led by ex.rebels
and anarchists, will, or ought to-
damn the whole outfit.
The Garrett Eagle of the 25th
fired off the above rot, which is a
fair sample Of the utterances of a
certain class of Republican papers.
We have no desire to be uncharta-
bile, but if the editor of the Eagle
believes the above, he is bordering
on dense stupidity, and if he does
not believe it, he is .knave. A
shorter route to the sea.board has
been talked of in Kansas for years,
and there are plenty of Republicans
who believe that such a route is
practicable and would save to Kan
sas farmers many millions of dollars.
The only question involved is wheth-
er the people of the West and South
have right to market as cheaply
as possible, in common with the
people of other sections, or have
not that right. The position of the
Eagle virtually is that the men who
favor a shorter route to the sea board
are fools, anarchists and tfaitIris
A ten-year.ol4 boy can see that in /
the above is no attempt, even, to
show that "the Popufrsts' scheme"
is either uhwise Or unpatriotic, but
is simply an attempt to create preju
dice by calling names. We chal-
lenge the Eagle to show wherein
there is foolishness, anarchy or trea-
son in seeking new outlet tor
Western and Southern farm produce,
and until the Eagle has thus shown,
the charges of stupidity or knavery
of it's editor must stand as unrefut-
ed. In the days before the war, the
anti-slavery people were charged
with wanting too many negroes.
That was the standing argument of
the opposition F; but when the boys
in blue went south, they found it
hard to tell, in many instances, who
was slave and who master-the
slave was so white. 1t was the
slave holder who mixed the blood of
the races, and some of these fine
days the people, will wake up to find
that the men who charge others
with being fools, anarchists and
traitors are the real anarchists and
traitors. So far, even the courts
have not decided that the East shall

saw some trying service in the west
on scouting expeditions, and had good
opportunity to study the men selected
for this very essential and very hazard
GUS work. They were, and cannot re-
call an exception to this, the pick of
our cavalry force. When not detailed
for the work, because of their familiar

Acting on the advice of Lin Moore,

the Confederates. After we had placed
q ridge between us and the enemy, we
brought our horses down to trot and

were travelling in the same general direc-

Every day during the past week since
the tongers began 10 take oysters through
the ice on Tolley's Point Reef. of Raw
Ridge. the number has incre ased. Yes
terday there were ninety-two batteaux
on the reef, each boat carrying from
three TO five men, aud fully three hun
dred men were employed, taking and
handing the oysters to say nothing of the
large number engaged in hauling the BIZ
valves from the Ridge TO Annapolis. a
distance Of over five miles Teams OF all
kinds were brought into servic. some re-
ceiving from one dollar TO one dollar and
fifty cents load and many of the teams
making from three TO four and five loads

The CAPITAL man. through the cour-
tesy of Mr.. VIM. II. Taylor. was driven
to the Ridge Yesterday afternoon, and
witnessed the scene On our way down
we passed twenty two loaded carts and
wagons returning to the city with their
loads on, and as many more were on the
way and down on the beach loading no.
Several of the Annapolis oyster packers
were on the spot buying the oysters as
fast "a they were brought ashore Mar
tin & CO., had several hundred bushels
piled up on the shore and owing to the
lateness OF the day the packers refused
to buy any more at the price paid $100
per bushel, unless they could get them
hauled up, for which they were then
paying one dollar per load, and in order
to have them hauled, the tongers agreed
to pay an additional sum of IS cents per
load and many Of the carriers worked far
into the night, but the roads were so ter
ribly cut up that many of the teams got
stuck in the mud, and 1t was feared to-
day they would not be able to haul over
the road at ALL At least 800 bushels were
left on the shore all night and man en-
ployed 10 watch them. An effort was to
have been made to day to reach the reef
by tug. and If possible tow the oysters
In large boats to Annapolis The reef is
shut In from the main channel by ice
from eight TO ten inches thick, which
protects the tongers from the great cur
rent that sweeps around the reef, other
wise they could not tong there at all.
The oyster inspectors pounced down
on the tongers and packers yesterday and
arrested number of the tongers and
packers for violating the Gull law and
having in their possession oysters under
the legal size.
