FRISCO EXTENSION TALK.

II will be remembered that when
joplin was made main line sta
ton on the Frisco, there was some
talk about Galena being shown the
same favor, but the talk, and ap-
parently the project, fell through.
The latter, however. is not true. The
matter is still being considered
and Galena stands a show TO be-
come a main line station.
The way up yonder potentates Of
the Frisco line have been scratch
ing their heads, bordering, figur-
ing, scheming and devising until il
is now substantially rurnored that
Gaiena will be placed on the main
line, aud in this manner: The
branch road in this city will be ex-
tended to Baxter Springs and on TO
Columbus, which would let trains
make straight shoot in u man.
ner instead of going around by
Carl Junction, which il tiresome TO
the travelling public as well as ex-
pensive to the company. Besides
the proposed extension would not
only enable them to give the travel
ing public better service, but il
would give them "a line right
through the richest agricultural
district of the entire state of Kan.
sas. They could then have chance
at the hay and cattle business of
Baxter, the fruit business of the
Quaker Valley Fruit Growers As
sociation, and last, but not least,
the increased facilities il would uD.
doubleday give them for handling
the imports aud exports of the
great Kansas lead and zinc mining
metropolis. Now is the time for
Galena to get move on her such as
she never did before. If the com.
pany can be made TO believe that
such move would be advisable
and profitable, and think it strong
enough TO make the proposed ex-
tension a reality il will be "a great
benefit to the town aud railroad
company.-Galena Republican.
This move ON the part of the
Frisco. which has long been con.
sidered, may be made. but we are
of the opinion it is more for the
purpose of hampering the electric
line than for anything else. But
Baxter will get the electric line just
the same. Let the Frisco build.
however. We would just as soon

and have a through route to St.
Louis as not. Again we say, come
on with your Frisco and electric
lines. We're here first.

TO Hibernate THE BLALAcKs

]. p. Perkins began an action on
Tuesday of this week in the district
court in the interest of Jonathan c.
and William b. Blalack in the hope
that they may regain their freedom
or for u otoriety for Perkins.
Summons has been issued for
Governor Leedy, Attorney General
Boyle, Secretary OF State Bush,
County Attorney Stevens and
County Clerk Thomson. This is
done for the purpose of getting
service on the state, but there seems
to be some doubt as to whether 10.
seph can make his plan work. In
their petition the Blalacks ask that
the verdict of the court be set
aside. 1t will be remembered that
they entered plea of guilty of
murder in the second degree and
were sentenced to the pen for life.
This was in 1868.
In their petition they now claim
that the plea of guilty was not vol
uutary and a truthful plea, and
that II was made by them solely
under duress of their fears, excited
by threats and menaces of many
and divers evil and feloniously dis
posed persons 10 take their life or
main them or do great bodily harm
in case they did not enter plea of
guilty. They now desire TO with.
draw that plea and enter a plea of
not guilty.
Mr.. Perkins will undoubtedly re-
ceive much notoriety aud the Bla-
lacks but little benefit in the above
entitled action.-Columbus Advo-
cate.
