THAT STATE TEMPERANcE UNION

The Eagles dispatches, the other day.
contained the announcement of the res
ignatfon of DIR. Roby as secretary of
the Kansas State Temperance union.
but the wires failed to give the full and
true reason of the rupture. This is
the society, or organization, which was
principally instrumental in urging Gov
ernor Morrill, on in his fight on Wich-
ltsl, It's officers and members subSe-
quently threatening 10 sink him polite
ally if he listened for a moment to the
protests Of the great majority of the
people Of this city. But the reason
of Roby's resignation is all out 1t
seems that for some time there has
been a row in the State Temperance
union, of which one Rev. Wake. a
Methodist minister, is president. a man
by the way. with n record in south
west Kansas county. Wake is an
EnsliShman. but naturalized. Since
his residence in this state he has made
himself conspicuous by his frantic en-
deavors in getting the annual Metho-
dist confereaoeS 10 pass resolutions de-
manding that the Republican party in
corporate a Prohibition plank in its
state platform, after which he would
regularly use all his power to defeat
the Republican party at the polls. Wake
Is man of small calibre but a scheIner.
kind of human ferret Roby in re-
signing Says that the Temperance
union is failure. that it does not ac-
compliSh good but harm. He saws
that II has been Of no use whateyer
except TO pay Rev. Wake n good fat
salary as president and to keep in nav
a few other preachers as lecturers. who
otherwise would have To be on the sun
erannuated or charity roll. In other
words that these sleek fellows who
have been keeping the state in an nm
roar and whose work has defeated the
Republican ticket in this county. are
simply howlers for their salaries. DR.
Roby seems To have been an homes,
man and he is TO be congratulated on
severing his connection with such an
outnt OF schemers and hypocriteS.

JOURNALISTIC SLAVERY.

The dear old Chicago Trib., new price
now 1 cent, dubs as a peculiar acci-
dent" that which last week befell one
John S. Patterson, newspaper man
of New York, who, while standing in
front Of Seizel Cooper & Co.'S trade
emporium, on State street. was seized
! with an attack of vertigo" and fell
into the street. Albeit immaterial TO
the point in hand, the chronicler doth
relate afreSh, being studious of all ac-
curacy. and AYERS that the young mans
right ear, inclding the lobe, was smash
ed off by an express wagon. AS a
medical man, with due submission, we
humbly suggest that the Tribune might
with Infinitely more propriety, have
| spoken of this as a lamentable at
/ tack of the literary blind-staggers, in
stead of vertigo" 'Tis. nor is It pos
sible, for us to mistake the true dag
noSis Of this case, because, from many
like instances of everyday occurrence
we have learned infallibly TO draw
the line between vertigo, as /. affects
persons in actual life. and the aliiictiol
referred TO, which is strictly confined
to journalists and literary persons. We
think that reflection will convince all
of the business of this view. Let the
managing editor glance at the younger

down, absorbed, unseeing, and at;en-
tive as devotee 10 the laws of prosidy

gloss in his eve that he has but half
comprehended YOU. You are letdng

no more belongs there than one in a
dream. In some cases the attack will
continue and the patient like enough
fall into the street. like Mr.. p, when in
reality he thought he was setting down

upon the surface, where in finding its
level 1t filled the pits and cavities in
the ground.
Be this as it may, the secret Of the
mines are known only 10 this mysterious
tribe and they guard il Zealously. As
to the silver mountains, Atkins's only
theoryis that it formerly contained vast
veins Of the metal and when highly
heated by the continuous eruptions, the
molten metal was forced out, and adj
hered to its sides as it ran down. He
thinks there must be tons upon tons
Of the metal in sight and still other i'm
mense quantities beneath the snow and
ice that the Indians have never searched
for. After spending a week in the val
ley the return journey was commenced,
and after repeated tOrtures and hard
ships, during which Atkins suffered the
most fearful agonies, the Indian village
was reached. The party lost over two
thirds its numbers by drowning, freez-
ing, falling, and attacks from wild
beasts during the TRIP. 10 the memory
Of those who persisted, the Indians
erected gorgeous totem poles, richly
embellished with the silver. After
spending over six months in the vii
lage, Atkins prevailed upon the Indians
to help him reach the Copper river, by
appris.ng them of the value of the sill
Yer and promises to get them guns and
fishing hooks like his own; things they
had never before heard of. In this way
he was guided to the head-waters Of
the Copper river, where the Indians re-
fused to go further. Promising them
he would soon return, he struck out and
following the river eventually, met
party of prospectors with whom he re-
turned to Sitka and from there home
to civilization.
