In Polk county has broken out in earnest and
as result Of the first battle three negroes

trouble Is between white and black laborers
employed on the grading work of the Kan

the negroes shall not work on the road and
are being backed up by citizens who have
armed themselves for the purpose of runnins

steamship companies have resolved to
make Galveston. Texas, one Of their

with the Western railroads not to
ticket immigrants for points of
