H WEDNESDAY, NOY, 35, 1882. oo ii wo ef the most enterprising and solid towns of the many that flourish dipon, Bates county’s soil are Rock- ville and Papinville. They are within | ainermiles of each other, and the | countty around aiid between them is noted for its wonderful productive ice i and the wealth. of its in-} jabikants. | There are no small men who live | and: prosper in’ this section. They | a¢é all” big’ ‘heatted,” generous, and | iaw-abiding and consequently happy | sn the possession of much property H and the gradual amassing of young fortunes. There are glittering pos- sibilities in store tor this section and its people, and nore on earth are more deserving. ¢ Béneath the surface of this splen- | did soil there is a three foot strata of as fine coal as ever came from the | bowels of mother ‘earth and is quite | aécessable to the miner‘and his. ma- | chinery. Within gunshot range of the city'of Reckville are tHe famous | stone quarries whose reputation ex- ténds across,the-bouadagies of many States. For months past the question of building a railrgad into,this wealthy ‘ikiddet he abheulturd? region has Seen quietly but earnestly, discussed. ‘The St. Louis'and Ensporia railroad com y has peen veceptly ingorpor- ‘attermg for the commencement of ROMER TD ee rom Emporia, Kansas, direct ta.

Un- very powerful corporation, has pur- chased upward of a thousand acres ef coal land in Prairie and Hudson townships. About three miles from Papinville this company has sunk two shafts, and although a large force of miners are employed the supply is not equal tothe demand, so well is the coal liked by those who have tried it. Hon. Levi Moleris a member of the company and has general super- viston of the miners, and, by the way, appears to be as familiar and apt in the handling of the *‘black dia- faond”’ as he dees in manipulating legislative bodies. The officials of ihe company visited the mines last week and express satisfaction at the octlook, confident that ic 1s but a mere question ot time when the iron horse will be steaming around their | shafts. Sandeman Robert Tombs is said to be rapidly tailing in health. He is almost blind and can neither read nor write. itis sad to note such an unfortunate ending of a career so brilliant and | grand in the mornmg and time of its glory.

THEIR MISTAKE. At Rich Hill on election day the! chief issue made against the Demo- cratic ticket was that it was a Butler ling ticket ; and for no other reason than that the Butler Democratic press favored the abolition of the township organization system the cry was raised at Rich Hil! to main- tain its existence. In other words the issue with oposition—who by the way hold the money bags and are the chief pro- moters of Rich Hill sentiraent and the main props of its prosperity— was squarely Rich Hill against But- ler. ‘Ihe short-sightedness ot their policy detracts largely from the sa- gacious wisdom of the very promi- | nent gentlemen who urged it upon the unsuspecting citizens of our neighboring city. the} | theless it is true, and they will not joint ballot, deny the crushing, demoralizing ef- | publican i lows according ‘o the Rich Hill’s greatest demand has been tor a bridge over the river join- ing Lone Oak with Osage township. And the county court was called upon to make this imprevement. There was but one means by which this dermand could be acceeded to, and that was through the abolitign of township organization, This Messrs Brown, Cowles & Co., and their mouth-piece, the Review,knew as well as anybedy else, but be- cause the Butler Democratic papers favored this method in the. real in- terest of Rich Hill, it must be op- posed as 2 ‘Butler trick.”’ The result is unfortunate though irreparable. and Rich Hill must forego the mortification of defeat in that one thing on which her heart was most solidly fixed. because her leaders were possessed with a jealous spirit. It appears to de the disposition of ; the influence alluded to above to | cultiyate an untriendly relation be- | tween Butler aud Rich Hill rather } The fault lies, | than the contrary. however, with the other side, from | whom came the hostile shot but = =a z | which will meet with no response | | flom this quarter.

Here isa sample of its opinion: ‘Gov. St. John declares he will have revenge. The man has been blind for the past year. He could not see that the popular sentiment was against him before the nomina- tion, and cannot now see that the result of the clection is a rebuke to his demagogism. He is the worst played out politician that Kansas has ever known, and is no longer a factor in the politics of that state.’* | | } Missouri will send a solid Dem- ocratic delegation to the next Con- gress which meets on the 4th ot March.
