Most of the opposition to voting an appropriation of $50,000 fora new court house for Bates county was based on the pretended belief or fear that it would not be finished for that amount; that the people would be called upon to vote an additional appropriation to complete it, as was instanced in_republiean- Hlinois, and in St. Louis under republican regime, where vast sums were used, over and above the original estimates, to com- plete the city hall. A democratic county court pledged the voters of Bates county that the building as planned and submitted to them, would be completed for the $50,000 asked, and how well those refer to the statement below, made ee eee from the court records, = cartek ena ~ At the very beginning the court The price of oats in Chicago Satur. was faced with a problem few courts lay reached T2 cents .the highest ~rice since the vivil war, “his is the season for republicans ‘y the county and state, and} we aiould not begrudge them that safistaction, for it is all they will get mit of it or building boards have to contend with.

The train was delayed for various rea- sons, and when Topeka was reached the crew began leisurely loading way freight. Fisher demanded that they get out of town, but they said they were obeying orders. “Show me the man that gave them orders,” said Fisher. He was shown the way to the company’s general office, whither he went in haste. He asked for the man in charge, and stated his com- plaint. He was eurtly informed that the men there were running the road, ‘whereupon he did a little oratorical stunt in the gestures of which a big} six-shooter figured.
