Bates Detendant in x# Suit to Recover on Unpopular Railread Bonds. In May, 1870, Bates county voted bonds of $1,000 each to assist the | Lexington, Chillicothe & Gulf rail- Two of thess bonds subse- quently became the property of C. Wesley Talbott of Philadephia. The promised railroad was never built and the taxpayers of Bates county found themselves in a position simi i lar te ihat of the people of St. Clair and Cass counties. The bonds had fallen into the hands of innocent purchasers in the east, each of whom brought suit in the amount of his holding. Talbott, by a» suit just begun in | the United States circuit court here, asks judgment for $2;000 with $200 for back interest. There is little deferse tu be made to the suit un- der the law, and if, after judgment, Bates county shall refuse to pay the | debt its judges will probably be sent ‘to jail to join the Cass county judges who are now tue guests of Marshal Stewart for exactly the same offense.—K.

How is it that protection raises wages while protected indus- tries are those which are always cut- ting wages? The national prohibition conven- tion held at Cincinnati June 30th, nominated for president Gen. John Bidwell, of California. The platform ignores free silver and declares the tariff should be levied only as a de- fense against foreign governments which levy tariff upon or bar out our products from their markets, reve- nue being incidental. The residue of means necessary to an ecovomical administration of the government should be raised by levying a bur- den upon what the people possess instead of upon what they consume. There are twenty well built towns in Kansas withouta single inhabi tant to weken the echoes of their deserted streets. Saratoga has a $30,000 opera house, a large brick hotel, a $20,000 school house, and a number of fine business houses, yet there is nobody to claim a place to sleep.
