The bankrupt law will bo repealed.
The house by a large vote has passed
the repeal and the senate will do the
same.
The fraud by which Hayes was elect
ed is coming ,out fuller each day al
though it was evident all along. Ihc
conspirators in that national dis
graco are, one after another, easing their
consciences by confessions.
Last week's Reporter contained Sena
tor Cenkling's story about the matter as
given by tho senator to a representative
of the World. In another column of
this issue we give the confession of M'•
Lin, ex-Sec V of State of Florida, w hich
show? how Florida was stolen from Til
den and falsified for the fraudulent
Uayos.
Let then be no rest until the whole
iniquity is laid bare, aud tho perpetra
tors of the groat crime have their merit
ed punishment.
If Mr. Hayes had a spark of self-re
gpect he would resign a east which he
holds by clear fraud.
Tho confession of M'Lin and lfennis
to having falsified the Florida returns in
favor of Hayes makes Montgomery Flair
feel confident that his Maryland resolu
tione will lead to tho ousting of Hayes.
The confession of these men has raised
n great deal of excitement at Washing*
tou. That llaycs holds the seat by
fraud every one knew long before these
men confessed —it is only addiug evi
dence with each day of the greatest of all
American rascalities.
Wo think tho IVnua legialatare should
pass a resolution censuring Harry White
for cxpoaing our trout streams in con
gress—ontsidera will now come in ar.d
catch all our tiah.
Tha Fhilad. Times thinks General
llarry White has a sure thing on the
Republican nomination for Governor
now. He is the only man iu the party
who knows the navigable rivers of the
Ftate, and with and Interna.
Improvements as the batUecrv of the
contest, who but the champion of
Kiskiininila? can lead tho Republican
forces ?
Harry White may know all about the
Kiskiminetas and some other tront
Streams, but will wager wo can pnxxle
him with the "Kaarondinhali," and no
congressman can step across it at low
water.
* Cashier Zeller of the Tifiin Nat. Rank
disappeared with ?40,000 of the funds of
that institution. Smart fellow, that.
Had he taken only 500 or 1000 he'd been
a rascal. The heaviness of the take
makes him respectable.
Jeff Davis has made a trip to Mexico.
An account from the city of Mexico says.
Jetiexson Davis before leaving this city
was complimented with a grand milita
ry review at San Laraxo. About 5,000
of all arms were in line. Mr. Davis was
mounted and in full uniform.
The mighty revenue raising effects of
the bell punch, can be gathered from
the New York Sun, which calculates
that the number of drinks sold in that
city is not less than 1,200,000,000 a year,
which under the Moffet law would yield
a revenue to the government 0f512,000,-
000 a year. The Sun begs the Legisla
ture to empower the city to collect reve*
nue by the bell-punch method.
At the republican county convention
©f Union county, the Cameron clan was
routed. Charley Wolf was after the
Winnebagoes aaJ carried instructions
for Wickersham for governor, against
Hoyt, the Cameron choice. Charly is
very litter against the Cameron clan,
and will fight it up to the hilt. Charly
is right enough in that job, but what
can he do outside of old Union ?
The Washington correspondent of the
X. Y. Ilerald takes down the republi
can cry of "Rebel Claims," by an inter
esting comparison with northern claims.
He says:
The republicans have recently been
publishing statements intended to pro
duce the impression that the "Southern
claims" business is a real danger to the
Treasury and the taxpayers. These
statements have been sent out from here
in large quantities to the niral districts
to inspire the voters with a terror of the
democratic party, which, it is charged, if
it should be allowed to get into power,
stands ready to appropriate not less
than $300,000,000 to satisfy the Southern
claims. This kind of business, however
can be done by both sides, and the re
publican exhibit of Southern claims
nave led democrats to go over the files
of the bills in the present House and
Senate with the result, as will be shown
in detail in a few days, that there are
Northern claims on file to the amount
ofsl,Goo,ooo. It will be shown at the
name time that the greater part of the
so-called Southern claims are in the
hands of Northern men, having been
bought up by them or originated by them
and being "Southern" only in the sense
of location. It will be remembered that
in the River and Harbor bill, which has
passed the House, the Northern appro
priations are two-thirds of the whole
amount appropriated, but it should be
added that these mountains of claims
from all parts of the country are con
stantly before Congress, with very little
danger of being granted. The danger
of the Treasury will hereafter be !e.--
than ever, because there no doubt that
Mr. Potter's bill sending all such claims
to the Court of Claims and making it
unlawful for Congress to pass upon any
that are not favorably reported from the
Court will become a law at the present
session. This Court has not a single
Southern judge, and but a single demo
crat on it. This whole fuse about South
ern claims is only a campaign buga
boo.
The railroads'arc again having a hit
ter fight over passenger rates. A dis
patch from Cincinnati April 2 0, says
that the war on ticket rates to the East
is becoming very hot, and rates are be
ing cut to a very low figure. The uomi
nal price to New York is now $lO, but
according to ccmtnon report tickets can
be bought for about lialf that rate. The
Enquirer says that the fight has become
so bitter that even the ticket agents
have lost their temper, and to-day rep
resentatives of the Pennsylvania and
Erie, the competing lines, indulged in a
free fist-fight in front of the Hurnet
Bouse, the Pennsylvania men coming
out winners.
When railroad companies fight the
people look on without sympathy for
either side, and are right glad if all con
cerned come out of it badly whipt, as
the people have nothing to loose and
are the gainers while the fight goes on.
We nevor enjoy low passenger and
"••eight rates unless these corporations
get into a fight.
At their meeting the other night in

follow ing closely upon the heel of sena
tor Conk ling's declarations to a W, .id
reporter, arc opening the presidential
steal afresh, and causing an a. .lenient
scarce less than that witnessed by the
countr\ when the monstrous fraud wat
perpetrated. How can there be quid
under so great a wrong The American
people are not toa>L of the kind ' ma
terial t© 1-eep quiet when it i. e'ear as
noonday that a man occupies the seat of
Washington by the greatest fraud *v*
perpeUated. No trap American desires
to see so great a eia.u upon our coun
try's good name, without :ui effort to
wipe it out, or giving an indication - t
the popular disgust with which the
American people behold their voice -et
aside and a usurper tilling the Jifiot 0*
chief magistrate. It will not do. The
people must not rest until the brand ol
infamy scorches the guilty perpetrators
of the fraud as well as him who now
holds the stolen place.
The judiciary committee on Friday
last liavjug adjourned without action on
the Florida controversy, several prouii*
nent democrats had a conference 'he
question before the house to wciun a
special committee or to instruct the ju
diciary to proceed at one© to the thor
ough investigstion of the whole matter.
It appears that purti~s are now in 1 lori
da procuring evidence, and from private
information with some succca.
General Butler says that IVuui* hud
all these facta before liim some weeks
ago ur.der a pledge of sccresy an I re
turned to Florida with a viewot inukai,
up the details. From what Dennis com
municated to hint, he regarded the mat
ter as serious and demanding a fuii in
vestigation. Mr. ltutlor stati- that Ju
lias important information touching the
Louisiana vote and the operations of the
' oresidential commissioners. He allege
that money wan used by Mr. Mack eagh
to bring about the result.
From Conkltng's declaration# aa a-i
as from the confessions of M'Lin and
Dennis it is plain that llayes had a
knowledge of the frauds ami tl--.it lie
sent Gov. Xoves —now his miu.-ter t -
France—to Florida L> make pr miscs
to the perpetrators of tLo frauds that
thev would be taken <are of.
it is rumored now that Ueecher in
tends bringing suit against rilton and
Monlton for conspiracy to blackmail. If
Elizabeth's confession is true lleecher
is about tws biggest black-male we knew
of.
The latest from Europe indicates war
inevitable between Russia and England
with Austria a little mad at England. If
these fellows want to fight why not go
about it at once instead of fooling about
it so long.'
The illegality about the unseated
land sale*, which has attracted atten
tion throughout the county, consists in
violating the law which provide* that
the tax-sales shall In? advertised in all
the papers. Treasurer Mussor without
cause withholds them from publication
in the Importer, a democratic paper,
which did it® full share to secure his
election. The fed w<*a nu*J t° -' '-j
per tract to cover advertising to all the
papers, and the share that belongs to
this paper, Mr. Muster either pockets
or wrongfully bestows it upon other.-
the first democratic official in t<® coun
ty guilty of such li.tlencss against a
democratic paper.
The gravo savant of the Journal phi
losophises thusly: "but the same men
differ on one subject at different times.
When we beheld our philosopher stri
king hands with those whom he had
despised as the vilest in the land, and
knowing his own political migrations
and imigrations— once training with de
mocrats then enlisting with the company
that wanted to hang all democrats and
then back again to join them, etc., we
think the grave philosopher of the Jour
nal saw himself in a mirror, ami then
soliloquised, "the same men differ on
the same things at different times."

CONFESSION OF EX-SECRETARY OF STATE
M'LIN.
Jacksonville, Fix, April ".'5. —The
Ilaily Sun and l'ross announces that M'-
Lin, secretary of state under <ov.
Stearns, and 1— G. Dennis, the "Littia
tjiant" of Alachua county, have made
confessions in writing of frauds in l-ii
by which 1-lorida was carried lor Hayes.
Dennis covers fully all details of the
Archer precinct frauds, which played so
important a part before the returning
board. He says 214 name* were put on
the return of Archer precinct after the
voting. M'Liu's confession is -aid to
coverall transactions before the state
canvassing board. These confessions
were in the bands of present Secretary
of State Bloxbam and have been for
warded to Washington.
After Dennis made confession eleven
indictments against him for fraud in
Alachua and i/evy counties were not.
pressed. M'Linn, it is said, was re
warded, but how is not shown.
The Daily Hun and Press of to-morrow
morning will close an editorial as fol
lows: "These gentlemen have uni>o
somed themselves and their written
statements have gone to Washington.
The Archer fraud is fully developed,
and the little crookedness in Raker is
laid bare, audtalso the secrets of the
state canvassing board at iallabassee.
THE ERA LD FILLY CONFESSED.
Enough lias been confessed to give the
State to Tilden by a large majority. Mc-
Lin, Chairman of the Returning Hoard,
has written an affidavit in w hicn he says
that lie is now convinced that he was
misled in the count and that the State
really weut for Tilden by fiOOortiOO ma
jority. He says: Noyes of < )hio, now
American Miuister in Paris, offered him
all sorts of preferment and reward if he
would only stand up to Hayes, adding
that lie was authorized to sjieak for
Hayes. McLin says he was influenced
pressure, by bis strong political
bill and by the tremendous stake at
issue. He was misled and gave the
dtate to Hayes when it should have been
gi ven to Tilden. His affidavit is gener
al in ita nature and is a mere premise ol
what he will say when occasion otiers.;
Two copies of this affidavit are in ex is-;
tence, one in New York and one in this
city.

A b>V York Herald ci-rrcspoudctit
telegraphing from "aris, Aj.ril 20.
says:
From a person who profesc . to have
an intimateucquaiutanct with the vat;-
can, 1 hear that a movement is on foot
which promises to be the uio-t impor
tant event in tLo religious history of
the century. This is nothing leas than
the secession in large bodies of members
of the English I'roUstant church to the
Kou.an Catholic church. Tho number of
seerders is p&ci: J at as high a figure as
a.UXIJA* 1 ol people.
Included in tliis exodus from Uic
church of England are bishops, rectors,
curates and deacons. Authorized dele
gates are, it is asserted now in Rome ne
gotiating the conditions upon which the
-occasion will take place.
Acceptance id the catholic faith is
promised c:i the following conditions:
First. The acceptance of all the doc
trines of the Catholic church.
Second. To solve the difficulties
among Anslicans relative to ordination,
bishojis, ministers and deacons consent
to receive fresh orders in the Roman
church under certain conditions.
Third. All new priests undertake to
observe celibacy.
Fourth. Ministers already married
shall not be asked to quit their families,
but shall bo debarred from hearing con

Fifth. The new Catholics to be plaes

This plan is modelled on iiiala<iu 4 ,.('d

for instance, every city has its special

FREI'ARATION Ok iJIKCREAY afOgA WliE .
Washington, April 21, 1878.
Delegate Maginnis of Montana Terri
tory, has received a letter from a fron
tiersman, one of his scouting constitu
ent*, giving some facts us to location
and strength uf the hostile Indians. '1 he
writer is an old Indian fighter, and says
Kit:it „ Bull has ueen working all y inter
to lorm an alliance of all hostile Indians
for a concerted movement against the
whites this summer.
Sitting Hull, accompanied by a small
escort ol about twenty-five of his \>ar
liosu *ii<> were with him at tliu Cutter
w.issai re, gogs from tribe to tribe mak
ing speeches to Inu.a:;. sml urging them
to war. Ilia braves are dre*acd;i)clothes
of Custer's murdered men, and Killing
Hull tells the IndianSNiointing to these
spoils, that's the way he does with the
whites, lie appeals to the cupidity of
the Indiana by promising them plenty
of plunder. Sitting Hull last visited the
Kantees, a small tribe near the Canadian
line, and by Liu appeals won them over
and they have joined hia war party.
The hostile Indians are mainly gath
ered near the Sand Hills, where buila)oi
are plenty owing to the abundance of!
grass. In the neighborhood of these
hills about twelve hundred lodges of
Indians are encamped, consisting ol
Hlackfeet, under llig Crow l oot and
Hiud Hull, Woods, under lied Crow,
4**)iiiboines, under Medicine Hull and
Hig Hour, C'rees, under l.ittle Chief;
V auk tons, uud.'r t'hif;f Wine; Kan tees,
under White lap; hiou*, ab.out three
hundred lodges, under Crazy Horse;
Yauktonais, under Hlack Cattish; tiros
VeiilreH, under White Eagle; also lodges
ol Picgans, Korceca, Koo tenuis and
Hrules, under other chiefs.
Kilting Hull is camped near the Hills,
' with several hundred lodges that he lias
gathered into his fold during the last
two or three months. The Indians are
well ariaed and well supplied with am
munition, soma having improved needle
guns. They are full of way spirit and
subject to Hittaig Hull, ia wlmtfi they
seem to have the utmost confidence. 1
This writer of the letter predicts a
bloody war unless provision is made
to meet the first hostile movement of
(lie Indians with troops enough to check
the war at the very start.

provoking immoderate laughter —Over

Mr- Bridges Dcin. Pa.) asked Mr
White whether, in low water, a person
could not ,t*p a> rox. thou. .
Mr. White iindignantly —No. sir. You
could not slop across ibcm. The gentle-'
man ought to know something about the
great oil region of Pennsylvania.
Mr Kenna (Dsn. IV. Va.) atkeJ Mr
Ellis what harm i ould be done by includ-i
ir.g the names of inconsiderable sitoau>s {
among those that should bo examined and
•urveyed. He also asked bow a commit
, tee could be blamed for acting on the as-
I surai.ces of member'- as to tbe importance
of streams in their districts.
Mr. RHis rcpli.d that that wu .be very
reason why the light of discussion should
he let in upon such bills in Committee of
the Whole.
Mr. Hrwitt Dem. N. Y ) said that he*
had signed the protest because ho had not
had a chance to study the bill. The bill
took out of tbo Treasury S7,UUO,(AW. by a
process of Comb.nation, from the hard
. arn 1 money of the people. The city of
New York had no grievance; $750,1**) bad
been appropriated for work in the vicinity
of If ew Yori. Thu district which he rep
n vented was very largely intermlt-a in the
bill, and yet he Voleqagainst it and pro-;
i. tcd against legislation which denied the!
House an opportunity to discuss iho bill. (
If the oily of New York never received!
another dollar be should still, so long as'
he had a sent on the floor, vote and pro- j
test against legislation so incongruous and
unconsidered in its character.
Mr. Roberts sent to the Clerk's desk and
had read from last year's record the names
of Mr. Caldwell ' Dem. Tenn.) Robinson
Hep. ltid,)and Kllis as having voted to
suspend the rules and pass tho Hirer and
Harbor bill, Iho same gentlemen having
this year signed tho protest.
Mr. Hamilton (Dem. Ind.) said that the
bill of last year be bad not examined, but
had taken it on the faith of the committee,
and had voted for it. lie lound bo hail
been grossly mistaken, and be would nev
er take another bill on the faith of a com
mittee ; nover, nevcf, never I (Laugh
ter.)
Mr Wright again brought up tho quel-j
tion of tho streams in the AlleghenyfMoun
uins, and excited his colleague (Mr.(
White) to renew tho contest. In tho heat
of the discussion they gradually approach
ed each other Irom opposite sides of the
chamber, and, amid iuue-cribaule uproar
and confusion, wrangled as to the sue of
the streams. Mr. \\hiteflourished a boob
containing an engineer's report on the
subject, and when, in answer to Mr.
Wright's oft- repeated question, Mr.
White spread out a map on which the
streams wero indicated, Mr. Wright point
ed at the man with an air of contemptuous
triumph, anu said that that (the width ol
tiie sheet o! paper) was the width of these
streams, lie suued and wared tho map
in"Mr. White's laco, for they had then
conic close together, and .Mr. Wbilomado
a motion as it he would throw tho volume
at Mr. Wright's head ; and all throughl
the ludicrous scene, as throughout the
whole Jay's session, there xyev® shouts ol
laughter, uproar, contusion and unbound
ed disorder.
WH V THERE IS NO RAIN JNPEKU
In Peru, South America, rain is un
known. The coast of Peru is within the
region ofpcrnctual south-east trade wind*
and though the Peruvian shores aro on the
verge of the great sea boiler, yet it never
rains there. Tho reason is plain. The
south-anil trade winds ill the Atlantic
ocean first strike tho water on the coast of
Africa. Traveling to tho north-west they
blow obli',uuly across the ocean until they
roach the "coast of Brazil. B.v this time
tliey are ladun with vapor, which they
continue to bear along across tho conti
nent, depositing it as they go, and supply
ing with it the sources of the Rio du la
Plata and the southern tributaries of tho
Amiiaon. Finally they reach the snow
capped Andes ; hero is wrung from them
the last particle of moisture that a very
low temperature call attract. Reaching
the summit of that range they now tumble
dojyn as cool and dry winds on tho Pacific
slope beyond. Mooting with no evaporat
ing surface, and' no' temperature iolJor
than that to which thfiy worb subjbct'on
the mountain tops, they roach the ocean
before they bppomo charged with fresh
vapor#, pnd btdere, therefore, they have
any whi.'H the Peruvian pliipgtu can ex
tract. Thus we see how tue Wps Of the
Andes become tho roservoir from which
arc supplied the rivers of Chili nnd Peru.

j KANSAS LANDS!
• • Wo own and control the Railway lands
; ofTKEuO COUNTY, KANSAS, about
! equally divided by the Kansas Paci&o
, Railway, which we' are selling at an aver
age of $3.26 per acre on easy terms of pay
' tnenL Alternate sections ol Government
lands can be taken as homesteads by actu
al settlers.
These lands lie in the GREAT LIME
STONE BELT of Central Kansas, the
* best winter wheat producing district of the
' United States, yielding irom 20 to 86
f Bushels per Acre.
The average yearly rainfall in this coun-
Sis nearly S3 inches per annum, one
ird greater than in the much-extolled
j ARKANSAS VALLEY, which has a yearly
[ rainfall of less than 23 inches per kunem
' in the same longitude.

very Remunerative. The winters are
; short and mild. Stock will live all the
year on grass I Living Streams and
are numerous. Pure water is
'found in wells from 20 to CO feet deep.
The Healthiest Climate in the World ! No
fever anW ague there. No muddy or im
passable roads. Plenty of fine building
stone, limn and sand. These lands are be
ing rapidly settled by the best cla&s of
Northern and Eastern people, and will sa
appreciate in value by the improvements
now being made as to mako their purchase
at present prices one of the very best in
vestments that can be made, aside from
the profits to bo derived from their culti
vation. Members of our firm reside in
WA-KEKNEY, and will show lands at
any time. A pamphlet, giving full infor
mation in regard to soil, climate, water
supply, &c.. will be sent free on request.
