Goo cash, balance ou time. great value, ulaces Sedgwick county at the passing throngh the western portion the Indian Territory and Texas ou way to Mexico it will cut every southern line of railroad by which the Fast and the West aVe being bound together. The Fort Scott railroad will bring the coal of south-eastern Kansas and southwestern Missouri to ai a fraction of the price we are now paving for fnel.

It taps the Gould system of roads in the Neosho vallev and at Fort Scott. At the lat ter place its St. Louis connection over the Missouri Pacific is direct now, and the construction of the Chicago Alton railroad to Fort Scott at early day has been detcrmiaed npon. This will let ns into both St. Louis and Chicago over tins route, and the building ot the line to Ells worth will give ns another outlet over the Kansas Pacific to the Rocky Mountains.

This is the situation as we see it. Wondertul possiblities are now within our grasp. The above, from the Hepublicun, indicates the present feeling and fut lire prospects of Newton. It fondly anticipates becoming the railroad ceil ter of the Arkansas Valley, though it not in the valley. A few years ago its chief distinction consisted in being the point at which people got off the main line, which ran out into the wilderness, to go to Wichita.

Rut the Newton of 6ome years ago, is not the Newton of to-dav. The town is stead ily growing and is becoming imbued with a vaultuiff ambition. It is no longer a suburb of Wichita. The road that runs through it is a continental line, reaching out tor the Pacific. We have long seen the benefit of being on the main line, and the disadvantage of being switched off on a side track It was the influence of this situation that induced our enthusiasm for the San Francisco road, which promised to put us on a great through railway.

It was the dishonest and infamous ac tion of the road in not only failing to carry out its contract witb the city aud county, but in obligating itself not to fulfil the contract, in selling out a controlling interest to the Santa Fe, that has induced us in the past to oppose the issuiug of any part of the $230,000 in bonds to the road. It onlv needs the extension west of the L. G. attachment of the San ta Fe from Harper City to the mount ains, or to a connection with the main line, say at Dodge City, to complete the discomfiture of Wichita, which will be ground to powder between the upper and nether mill-stones, or rail ways, and the county will suffer will the city. We have already begun to feel the "grinding." It may be a slow process, but it will be steady and sure.

There is no use in concealing from ourselves what every body knows, and none see clearer than the active, united aud enterprisingtowns around us. We must get into the great cur renf of trade east and west. We must secure the Fort Scott road, aud encourage its extension through to the mountains, as an independent com peting line. The Wichita and McPherson road would give us the advantage of the two leading and independent lines of Kansas. To secure these results there must not only be unity of purpose in the city, but between the city and county, for the latter would reap as rich a reward as the city.

If Newton gets the Fort Scolt road, and builds to McPherson, and we do nothing and get nothing from the do-nothing poli cy, Wichita will he a good county town, but nothing more. We want not only unity amonjf ourselves, hut we want a different representative in Congress. Tom Ryan i the servile tool of the Santa Fe road- We may thank him for defeating the Wichita and Fort Smith enterprise. But for him we would have had the franchise and riurht of way through the Territory to Fort Smith and the road under construc tion. The business man in the city who can't see that we want a main line running west irom tins city to me mouutaius, is a fool of the first class, The tuaii who wants every road tastop at Wichita, is a consummate ass, and should be in the lunatic asylum rather than blurting out his insanities on the streets and in tho councils of her business men.

We are in a pocket. We are being bottled un. All that is left to bedone is to put the cork in. AVe must get out of this pocket, off the tide track, and we must make up our minds to spend money in the attempt, and it can be done. Guiteau's Divorced Wife Interview ed.

Cixcixxatti, Ohio. Nov. 22. The Gazette will print to morrow the ac count of an interview held by one of its reporters with Mrs. Dunmiere, formerly wife of Guiteau, and Mrs.

Julia Wilson, of Leadville, said to be a relative, but certainly well acquaint ed with Guiteau. lhese women are on the way to Washington as- wit nesses in the trial, and have escaped till now all newspaper attention. The Gazette's reporter boarded the train here ami rode out far enough to ob tain the facts. He says Mrs. Dun miere is accompanied by her hnsband and two children, one eleven months old.

She is described as small in stature, not slender, with a pleasant but worn look, large, dark gray eyes, aquiline nose, and a month which indicates a sensitive disposition. She was wearied with her journey, which lcgan last Saturday night, and could not talk at great length. She said she had been twice summoned to go to Washington, and obeyed the sec ond summons. She was sent for by the prosecution. To the questions whether she regarded Gniteau insane when he was her husband (from 1S69 to 1876), she answered "Oh, no he was of a peculiar temperament, very irritable when he could not have his own way.

but was perfectly account able lor all he did. lie was not in any wav less sane than most men are, He was very vain. He liked to have people talk about him, and always en joyed any kind of notoriety. Why, he enjoys all tins notoriety lie has now, and is delighted to have bis name in the pers, and to think the people, of the tinted states are talk ing about him. lie never montionca im-auitv in his family, and would have resented such a suggestion by others." Mrs.

Wilson, who is well known as a worker in religious circles, was weary, and declined to give any hint as to what she would testify to. She merely said she knew Gniteau when she was a child. His mother died i.n'i.n ra i-nnnir. and he srrew un as any boy would without proper witt rtti lit "ilia fumilir was an honor- able one, and felt deeply the disgrace he had brought on the name.

Political parties have figured so largely in this country, that it is ma- terial to know the origin and status those which have had a leading influence in controlling the public affairs of the United States. The present Republican parly is not the old original Republican party of this country. The original political par ties of this country were the Federal and the Democratic or Republican party. The latter was called origin- ally, in some of the states, the Re pub- lican party, and in other etates the Democratic party, although one and the same party. Jefferson is universally acknowledged as the founder of the Democratic party, and yet he called it the Republican party and speaking of the then two existing parties, in his first inaugural address, used the expression "We are all Republicans we are all Federalists, etc." In Virginia, the Democratic party was originally called and known as the Republican party.

while in Pennsylvania and other states it was called the Democratic party. Shortly after the Constitution the United States went into opera tion, the people became divided as to the powers of the Federal govern merit on the one side, and those of the states and the people on the other. The Federal party espoused the cause of the Federal Government, insisting that the weak point in the political system was a tendency to accumu late too much power in States and the people, and render the Federal Government weak and inefficient while the Democratic or Republican party espoused the cause of the 6tatcs and the people, insisting that the weak point in the B)r8tcm was a ten dency to centralization, and to accu mulate too mucn power in the Feder al Government, thereby encroaching; upon the reserved powers of the states and the people. After the Democratic or Republican party had acquired a complete ascendency under Jefferson. Madison and Monroe, the Federal party was disbanded, but the leading elements of it were, after some years, revived in the name of the AVhig party, under the aus pices of Clay and Webster.

And when the Whig party was abandoned in 1S54, its ambitious politicians joined the National Anti-Slavery par ty, and in 1850, organized the present so-called Republican party, on the anti-slavery agitation mainly. It was necessarily a sectional party, and its founders proclaimed it a temporary party, the mission of which would end with the settlement of the slavery question. Hon. Lyman Trumbull, who acted originally and during the war with this so-called Republican party, in a speech in August, 18S0, gives the following exposition of the origin and conduct of this party, to-wit Before proceeding to discuss the questions which now divide parties, it may be useful to inquire whether there is anything in tho present atti tude of parties which requires a Re publican ot 18bb, or 1880 to support that party now. This question will be best answered by inquiring what the distinctive characteristics of the Republican party of that period were, and comparing them with its preseut attitude.

The Republicans of 1856 declared in their national platform that they were opposed to the repeal of the Missouri compromise; to the exten sion of slavery into the free Territories: in favor of admitting Kansas as a free state of restoring the action of the Federal Government to the prin ciples of Washington and Jefferson, and that that a railroad to the Pacific Ocean, by the most central and prac ticable route, is imperatively demand ed bv the interests of the whole coun try. The national Republican conven tion of 1860, which nominated Lincoln for the Presidency, adopted substantially the platform of 1800, to gether with these two resolutions: "Fourth That the maintenance in violate of the rights of the states and especially the rights of each state to order and control its own domestic institutions according to its own judgment exclusively, is essential to that balance of power ou which the perfection and endurance of our political fabric depends and we de nounce the lawless invasion by armed force of the sou of any state orterri- tory, no matter under what pretext as the gravest ot crimes Sixth That the people iustly view with alarm the reckless extravagance which prevades every department ol of the Federal Government that a return to rigid economy and account ability is indespensible to arrest the systematic plunder of the public treas ury by favored partisans, while the recent startling developments of fraud and corruption at the Federal metrop olis show that an entire change of ad ministration is imperatively demand ed." So important did Mr. Lincoln re gard the fourth resolution, asserting the rights of the he incorporated it in his inaugural address. These resolutions of the Republican party of 1856 and 1860, distinctly announce the principles npon which it attained power. For the ascendency of those principles 1 struggled, and lor all that remain unsettled I am struggling to day.

But how many ot them are now living issues And of those which remain, how many does the Republican party of to-day represent Theeflect of the Missouri compro mise, which prohibited Blavery north of 36 degrees and 30 minntes north latitude, and the question of extend ing slavery into free Territories is set tied forever by the Thirteenth Amend ment to the Constitution ot the Unit' ed states, which declares that "Neith er slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime, wherof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction Kansas was admitted into the Union 19 years ago a free State, and the Pacific railroad was completed and has been in operation for many years, which ends all those questions. r-LASKS IN LINCOLN PLATFORM REPU DIATED BY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OF TO-DAY. The only things left to be accomplished by the Republican party, as proclaimed in the days of its purity, are "The restoring of the action of Ihe Federal Government to the prin cipies of Washington and Jefferson the establishment of the right ol each state to order and control its own do mestic institutions according to its own iudgment exclusively the re turn lo rigid economy ana accounta bility as indespensable to arrest the systematic plunder of the public treas urv by favored partisans; and a change of administration to correct the recent startling developments of frauds and corruptions at the ederal metropolis. For which of these measures to-dav is the Republican party of to-day the advocate? Not one. lis most trnsl ed leaders denounce the effort to re- store the Federal Government to the principles of Washington and Jeffer- son, and to maintain the right of each I state to order and control its domes- tic institutions according to its own judgment exclusively, as little Jess I than treason, ine recKtess extrava- gance of the Federal Government in it to as of in of flicted with the policy of the Saint Johns, of the grand old party, and with Grant, the Marlborough of American history.

He gave the ountry the only clean and honest administration it has had since the war. In the light of the developments of the last three administrations, his administration will be the wonder and the admiration of the future. In the midst of the most bitter political feuds, crowded to the wall by a partisan oligarchy which bred the most corrupt gang of political scoundrels the world ever saw, there was no charge of personal dis honor or dishonesty attached to him, even the beginning of one of the most gigantic swindles and robberies rings and combinations of fraud that have ever demoralized and degraded the politics of the country and covered the nation with shame, was ever traced back to his administra tion. When honesty and purity and patriotism are lifted up from tinder the dirty hoofs of partisanism, when the rings are broken, and the honest people rule, the administration of An Johnson will stand out like an alto relievo in the degraded panorama of the past twenty years, with no whis ky rings, navy and war and postofhee and treasury, and law, and state do partments' rings no Iilack Fridays, no Belknaps, Shepherds, Fisks, McDonalds, Robesons, Wil liams, nor Grants, with no Dorseys, Dradys, Shermans nor Hayes, with no Credit Mobiliers, to Mast its high in tes-ritv. No detective ever traced a conspiracy of fraud to the threshold of Andy Johnson's office in the White House.

It is hausiating to have this small potato of Kansas prating of his lovaltv to that barnacled old hulk, that rotten and corrupt old Ring, yclept the Grand Old Party while Andy Johnson played Iago to his Othello 1 IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. Guitean will never be convicted of the murder of Garhcld. 1-or some time we have thought that there were the manifestations of a pressure behind the court that will result in a verdict of insanity. The motive is apparent. The most of us remember how frequently it was cast into the teeth of Johnson and his friends that he was made President by Iiooili, while none but the blindest partisan hater could, in any manner, connect Johnson with the crime of Rooth.

Of course, he was not in the remotest degree the inspiration of the murder of Lincoln. There is not the slightest parallel between the assasination of Lincoln and Garfield. Booth was the product of se8ession for which Johnson was no more responsible than any other man, north or south. Gniteau is the child of a corrupt, unpatriotic, selfish and devilish partisanship, which in its blind rage to rule and its iusatiate maw for spoil-, tramples, without compunction, upon every principle of honest government, and would hurry the nation into the vortex of revolution rather than lose control of the power and patronage of the government. But for the fends of the factions in the Republican party, Garfield would be alive to-day.

The hateful spirit of faction nerved the arm of the assassin to tire the cruel shot. The stigma rests upon both factions, but one faction reaps all the benefits, possesses all the power, nd is making use of it to promote its factional interests. The administration and the stalwart wing of this corrupt old party foolishly think that the sting of moral responsibility would be removed from ihciii by a verdict of nsanity. If Guiteau is found insane, the world will not hold them morally responsible. The stigma will not at tach to Arthur and the stalwarts.

Why not, even if he was insane The nsanc party feuds excited the crank. There is no help for them in this di rection. Whether done by a crank or a scoundrel, the spirit of faction, of partisanship, is directly responsible tor the murder of Garfield. A prominent physician, who is well acquainted with Guiteau; says that he was emotionally insane. It was not the insanity of his rational faculties, but of his emotional nature.

His passions got the betteF of his reason, and he holds him irresponsible for the deed. The would is full of snch luna tics, al! they need is the exciting and inciting cause to do murder or commit any other dastardly crime. An acquital upon the plea of the emotional insanity of Guiteau would break down all barriers erected by nature, by God and by the law, between the murderer and his victim. If some man incites a riot on onr streets, he is responsible if Stme other fellow In comes emotionally insane aud kill: his neighbor. He would be held le eallv responsible.

The factions of the Republican party are morally guilty and responsible for the death of Garfield, and it don't make any difference whether Gniteau is crazv or not crazy. It won't lessen the national shame in either case, but it will be a great national crime to let the assassin escape upon the plea of emo tional insanity otherwise ungovernable passions. The country i3 able to stand a reproach for the sake of jus tice in this case, but it can't afford to let tho stalwarts, the administration or all the factions of the Republican party combined thwart justice, prostitute the courts and endanger life, because of the cranky notion that the stigma will be removed il Guiteau is found by a jury to be insane. WHAT ANSWER. Two propositions have been secured for the construction of railroads through this county.

The St. Louis St Fort Scott company propose bnild diagonally across the county from the southeast to the northwest; and the Morris, Marion Western company offer to enter near its northeast and pass out near its southwest corner. Each of these companies asks as an inducement for the construction of its road across the county the exchange of $75,000 of bonds for a like amount of its stock, and both promise to build to Newton within twelve months, and across the the county within two years. The amount of bonds asked will not more than pay for the right of way for the two roads, and as we sid these bonds are not asked as a donation. For every dollar of them we shall receive a dollar of railroad stock which is likely to become quite valuable.

As it is well known to most of our readers the counties that held their stock in the Santa Fe railroad finally realized almost Its face value for it. A few years ago the M. K. T. railroad seemed hopelessly bankrupt and yet to-day Lyon county is offered 44 cents on the dollar for its stock in this corporation.

R. K. Elliott, counsel for Wm. Jones, the young farmer who is charged with assault aud battery with intent to kill Charles J. Guiteau, yeslerdav requested Mr.

Blunt, the prosecuting attorney at the Police Court to have Jones brought to the Police Court, so that could be released on bonds, This waives all the formalities of a hearing the Foliee Court. Mr. Blunt slatted that the witnesses were to go before the Grand Jury to-day in this case. The Police Court van made a special trip to the jail for Jones at 9.30 o'clock. In the court-room he had wait until several cases were tried.

There was crowd attracted by the presence of the alleged avenger, and was watched for an hour by an admiring audience. Mr. Elliott arose with client beside him and said "If your lienor please in the case of assault aud battery with intent to kill, against Wm Jones, we have bondsmen present and are ready to give bonds. Mr. Elliott also said that he wished to waive the hearing iu this court, and have the defendant give bonds to appear before the Grand Jury.

The court assented, and Mr. E. G. Wheeler, the well-known junk dealer, and Mr. Sebastian Aman, keeper of a restaurant on Ninth were ollercd by Mr.

Llliott as securi tips. Jones and Ins securities were recognized in the sum of 5,000 for his appearance before the Grand Jury. Jones left the court-room with his counsel and friends, and a minute afterward the court-room was nearly deserted. Tho witnesses were before the Grand Jury to-day, and it is under tood that Parry Carson, conductor and James Leonard, driver, of the van, and a hoy who was running after ihe van, were ail quite positive hat Jones was (he one who followed ind fired tho shot.

It is probable that a presentment will be found at once. Scoviile. Scoviile is making a reputation. Prior to the assassination few people even in Chicago, had heard of him, When he so modestly went to Wash ii.gton, the only man on the face the broad earth who would undertake the defense of Guiteau, people said ell. it is his duty, being the man 1 relative, but it is quite evident that he isn lawyer enough to hurt, am tho assassin is welcome to all the help be can get from Guiteau had no confidence in him, the court regarded him wita commiseration the Washington bar said: "What pity their great lawyers on the othe side ain't going to have anybody to light, ami so the proceedings began Scoviile knew nothing of criminal practice; he told the court that he was trying to secure counsel for the prisoner who could do justice to the gravity ol the case.

11c wrote dozens of prominent attorneys and besought their aid, and, when for on reason or another, they all declined he expressed his sincere regret that the case must rest with one who was so universal in criminal procedure Then he went ahead, doing better perhaps, than the most celebrated at tornev could have done. He first won the good will of the court by hi modesty, and then won the respect of the bar by his shrewdness 111 the ex animation of witnesses. Robinson who was assigned to the case, blun dcred frequently: Scoviile never. And when the former withdrew Irom the defense after a most ell'ectiv speech showing his failure to agree with Scoviile, Ihe latter, with the manner of a man who must do his duty, however disagreeable, accepted Robinson's retirement in a speech so kind but so telling that the ashing ton attorney looked small beside the humble lawver Irom Chicago, who, assuming to know nothing, seems to understand everything. And Ithen Scoviile proceeded to open the case for the defense.

The speech shows how much can be done by quiet talk without oratorical display or any of tho tricks to gain sympathy. Wheth er it is shrewdness or superlativ modesty and candor that inspires Mr, Scoviile, it is hard to say, but it 1 certain that he captured the crowd and presumedly theiury by his ad dress yesterday and the day before. He seemed to be saving: "I am her to defend this miserable wretch, not because it is a pleasure, not because there is a fee awaiting me, but be cause he is the brother of a wife I re spect and love, and because I believe him to be mentally irresponsible lor Ins actions. I sorrow with you over the foul deed it racked my heart as did yours; I cannot afford the lime am spending here from my practice, which is small al best I cannot hope to cope with the great lawyers array ed on the other side but if this man is insane, it behooves me, not only as a relative, but as a citizen, to do what lntte 1 can to save him Irom the gal lows." So he went on, in language much more effective than this, but conveying the impression indicated until it was plain to sec that he had the good-will of all 111 the com room. And we believe Mr.

Scoviile has the respect and good wishes, so far as he is personally concerned, of the entire country. It will not do to say any more, however, that he is no law yer, that he is a humble and unknown man in Ihe profession, etc. He is already known to everybody in the country as a gentleman of modesty and good sense, and if he shows the same judgment to the end of this trial that he has thus far displayed he will wake up some of these days to find himself with about as fine a reputation as a lawyer- as any man al the bar.

THE OLD REPUBLICAN" NOT WITH THE PARTY. The Republican party of the last ten years has been no less hostile to the men who founded it than to the principles upon which it achieved success. Seward, Chase, Welles, Blair, Greeley, Sumner, Adams Palmer, the men under whose auspices the Republican party chiefly won its tame, ceased to act with it when the.

war was over, slavery abolished, and the party departed from the only vital issues re maining ol ihose on which it came in- to power. At no period of our history have reckless extravagance and systematic plunder of the public treasury by favored partisans beeu so flagrant as during the last term of General Grant's administration. It was dur ing that period that Robeson, Williams, Creswell, Delano, and Belknap were memuers or me uamnet that the whisky rings, the Indian rings, and custom house rings most did flourish that Indian were sold; that the fraudulent claims of Secor and Chorpening were allowed and such was the waste and mismanagement in the Navy Department that Admiral Porter testilied on oath be fore a committee of tho House of Rep resentatives 111 it)d, that "Our navv, taken as a whole, is worth nothinLr. and the sooner the country understands that fact the This was alter Robeson had been Secretary of the Navy for nearly eight years, and had used more (ban 000,000 of the public money.

After reaching the prisoner's room, tuiieau partook ol heartv breakfast, and expressed himself satisfied with the police arrangements made to insure his safety. He thought the same precautions should have been observed at the outset. The court-room Was crowded in every nook and corner. John liuiteau, Use assassins brother, was in the court room soon after 9 o'clock, and obtained subpic nas lor six additional witnesses. None of the gentlemen publicly in vited by Gniteau to assist in his de fense have vet responded.

It is un stood, however, that Scoviile expects to secure the services of Trude, of Chicago, later in the week. Several medical experts summoned by the defense are in attendance this morning among them Dr. Uice, of Wisconsin, who has long known the prisoner, and who, it is said, advised his commitment to an insane asylum four years ago on the ground ol emo tional insanity.

He called tho attention of the jury to tli plea set up by the defense in crimina cases, lie cited numerous rases, am rulings iu several noted ones. He claimed that the plea of insanity hav ing been set up by the defense, the burden of prool rests with the prose cution. At one point in bis argument Mr. Scoviile, 111 detailing the more en lightened treatment ol the insane now iu vogue at asylums, said other words, those in charge of asy lums act with a little more reason than do the inmates." This sally seemed to amuse (iuiteau, immensely and a broad smile broke over hi features, which reappeared two or three times, as if his mind recurred to it. Scoviile allude! to tho prejudie which undoubtedly existed against the plea of insanity generally, and especially in the case of the prisoner.

There was just as much ground to indicate Guiteau's insanity. "Why," said Scoviile, "even President Garfield said. 'Why did this man do it? He must be Blaine must have believed Guiteau insane."

The Times has the following dispatch from New Haven, Conn. "Al a meeting of the Protestant clergymen of this city much dissatisfaction was expressed with the revision of the New Testament. All preseut acknowledged the necessity of a revision of the King James translation, and were equally unanimous in the opinion that the recent revision wa3 too faulty to be adopted. The great burden of the criticism upon the revision was in relation to its bad English, and the Rev. Dr.

John E. Todd, of the Church of the Redeemer, said he had counted 150 instances of bad English in one of the Euistles to the Corinthians. A re vision so faulty, he said, could not be approved by scholars of this age. The Rev. Samuel W.

NOVEMBER 30, 1381. TOO UTTERLY UTTER. A charge is being circulated by the TteDublicm press of the state, or a part of it, to the effect that Got. St. John stumped ltiloy county anent the Republican nominees.

Father Milling-ton, of the Winfield Courier, who has in keeping the character aud reputa- lionofthe Republican party in gen rnl. and ot St. John in particular, writes hi excellency about the mat ter. and the Governor, as he did about his Lawrence speech and his dicker for support with the Leavenworth sa loon keepers, furnished Mr. Milling- ton with the denial desired.

The Governor takes up a half column of nonpareil in explaining his and what he did do in hiley county. He made three temperance speeches, (he calls them temperance speeches.) in the north part of Riley mimtv. in meetinz houses. One of them was delivered to a colony of negro refugees, and was only fifteen long, lie asserts his loyalty to the "grand old party." "He has beeu a life-long Republican." "Ihave nwn exnense. (not at the ex pense of the party,) entered heartily into every canvass for Republican principles." In 12 he supported Grant and not Greeley (and he is not ashamed of It! En.

Now, althoug this is too thin, too awfully utter, ou credulous old friend of the Courier swallows it like a lazzarone would string of slimy rm.arone. Why di not the Governor state what kind a ticket the grand old party in Riley put up for the people to vote for We could then have decided, for our self, and ay other man could have done likewise, whether the Saintly John had. in making four temperance speeches, spoken for or against the nominees of the g. o.

Suppose the Saintly had come to Sedgwic a week before the election and given us and the "negro refugees" four of his speeches, or his speech four times (which is nearer the truth), don't you think Ihe Ring would have roared i self hoare and damned John from John Groat's to Land's End, as a traitor to the g. o. nominees? Well, we smile, not a ghastly smole, either. Why, our esteemed brother, Rain, delivered his temperance speech, (which he paddles around the country at so much a pedt'le,) twlco in this city.tm Saturday night at the Presbyterian church and on Sunday night at the M.

The fact is, no doubt, that the grand old party of Riley did just what the grand old party in Sedgwick did nominated a whiskey ticket. It, the g. o. point ed with pride to the amendment and the law, and then button-holed the "toys," in the alleys and around the corners, and at St. Marks, and with their thumbs on the ends of their pro bosces and with a loud guffen, said, "Boys, look at our ticket! Smell its bref Who has the bald headed el-froutery to say that a temperance speech in' Riley or Sedgwick county was not, and would not have been, against the nominees of the "publi cans and sinners?" This pious fraud says he was against "Retrenchment and Reform." Who doubts it? This shallow pretender rails and sneers at Horace Greeley, whose boots he nev er wa- worthy to black.

This Cheap John snd canting hypocrite denounces Andy Johnson as a traitor. Why, the nation owes more to Andy John son than it does to ten thousand St Johns multiplied over and over again If the present, emaculate and petti coated by the too numerous St. Johns, does uot do justice to the name and memory o' Andy Johnson, the com ing centuries will. Why, that grand old man, gran with all hi faults and failings of tern per, stood like a pillar of adamant in the senate chamber while the waves iecesioi nd treason dashed with iubitant wrath asralnst the capitol of the nation. Solitary and alone, with out quiver or quaCT, he stood for the loyalty of his section and denounced secession as treason, while the haugh ty southern senators stalked from the senate chamber and the northern doug'ufaces offered concessions aud bcirged for compromise.

Andy John eon stood there pre-eminently th grandest figure in America, and the memory of that heroic history ought to, in the hearts of a generous people. cover a multitude of failings and mis takes. It never need cover a mean act or a dishonest act.
