Kirk wood, in his temperance n'-eech Sunday bel. t e la t. told a .story of the temis r anee agitation in Ohio, in which a IhhIv oi women had g..tt. n U.g ther for the pursiseof taking certain needful steps in securing the enforcement of the liq uor law, when one of the women was called out by her hu.-d-and who said to In r : "Keep out, Mary. Fa is a candi date for the legislature, and if you make too much fusH !4!ut this, they will I- at him sure." The story was concluded by the .statement that Mary kept out. It do s not tako eyes Wronger than those of a very ..superliicial observer to see that the prohibition lpublicans of this county are plajin.r; a heavy game of "Keep 01. t, Mary.' The Newton (Kans.,) Democrat has discoveied that a vote for the llepuhlic an ticked is a vote lor free whi.sky ; For the untaxed suloou ; For the jHitical saloon; For higher taxes ; For Urn dfstruction of millions of property, built up under tho sanctum of the law ; For the desolation of the vineyard. A vote for tho Democratic ticket is a vote against free uhi.sky ; For agoodbVi nse; For tin! destruction of tho trilc of sal-ion f)litieians ; For lower taxes j For the just administration of law ; For t'i'j maintenaco or tho pledged faitli of the state; For agricultural prospTity. And ppeaking more particularly of Farber county, we will say that a vctc for the H.-publican ticket is a vote Tor tlie party that middled tho he aw ttonded debt 011 t!ie county ; i'he party that has allowed whisky sold contrary to constitution and law"; Tlie party that ha entirely neglected tocunvictthem.my persons charvdwith cvinm in this county; Ilio jnrty t!i it has collected heavy taxes for lie improvement of streets and ro.i(!i, and allowed bth to re:,iain the worst 111 tho state ; The pari) that has Permitted the land surveys to become terribly mixed; He party that has kepi iiiellicient and iiii-omp-tent nu n in olhYe, And the party that is.ued Nmd fjr :i court house and did not build one. Any change from this order of party rule would le' an improvement, 'fry the Dem x-ratin ticket for luck. Kansas C.ty is Worked 1111 ovt-r tin- subject of d.se:ued meat, which the rimes of tint city claims is being s-dl to a large extent there. That paper has interviewed parties who say that a leg lar business is made of killing for the city trade diseased and crippled beeves snppi-.i into tho stock yards there. A gentleman whoso business takes him to the stock y:;rds frequently said to a re loit( rot the Times : Well, sir, I have stood at the stock yard 1 and seen diseased cattle come in by the car load. The farmers and stock dealers would pick all their big-jawed and otherwise diseased cattl" out of their herds and would ship them into Kansas 1 it: knowing full well they can market them here Ftithennore, there is at the present tiun being built across the Kaw river, m arly opittMte tho stock exchange, a slaughter house for tho ex- piess purjHisoof butchering the 'jam med" n:d crippled fit tie for home use. Although no such cohbblooded, delibcr ate and extensive arrangements have been heretofore made for nuttini? this dis ased nn at up i!i our market, it is a fact that tho meat markets here have bc n constantly supplied with this kind of n.eat, and if at any time the supply execcdeil the deiuau.l, thedise;used meat w.m shipps to Chicago or St. I.uis as dresvd b ef. Then the canning fa lo ries bn diseased lK-cf, but that doesn't coi.ei ni the public si greatly as the out rages of which I s'HNik, for any one who eats canned beef must do so with a sus picion nn to its character, while those who buy fresh meat are entitled to have at le;ist a healthy aiticle." Cattlemen of mis section will rend the alsive without a pnngof guilt touch ing their consciences, for we suiios no county is freer of diseased and big-jaw ed cattle than this. Our cattle are gen erally allowed all the territory they can travel over ; th- water they drink is as pure as If it 'lowed from mountains of snow .ind Ice, met then our ranchm- nre to conscientious to shipdiscased.au imals even if they owned any. We suggest t theepieures of the city by th Kaw that if they w ill demand of their butchers none but lUrber county Ins f, with nam. of the breeder branded in the flesh, they need never fear about eating any th.it is diseased. K01E IA5D FOR KANSAS. Throngli th 1 tTort of State Agent Crawford, who was appointed for the purpose by (Jovcrnor (Hick, the I'nitod States governtnei t has iet red to the niiukct over a m llion ncr s of land that had leeu withdrawn for the Santa Fe railroad and claimed by that road in its land grant. The Utter informing Gov ernor (ilick of the result attained is us follows : WaMIINoTOS, Oct. 0, 1vn1. Sut : Th commissioner of the gen eral land oiliee, lion. N. C. McFarland, has directed that all lands within the in lemnity limits, so-called, of the Atch ison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, be immediately restored to market, under tlie homestead, pre-rmption and tinuVr culture laws. Hy this order of the commis.doncr. l,nu, Ml acres (and more) of the public lanls in Kansas, which have ltcen wrongfully withheld from the market some ten or f leven years, under the pre tense of satlstvlnj an over sati.sti. ! grant, are restonsl to the settlement rights 01 the iks'I 10. The lands thus restored are situated lietween Irnet and the w est line of Kansas, with tho exception of a few tracts in tht Wichita land district. Lists of thalandj mentioned uro now bing preparel in the general land of fice, and w ill, within a week or ten days be transmitted with the order of restor ation to the local ofllces at Wichita and Lamed. The restoration of this large Isnly of the public lands, which is equal to fl.nno homes of lot) acres each, is the first tangible fruit resulting from this railroad contest.

S. this week decided that the first and second sections of the Civil Night bill are un constitutional. There were five cases tofore the court, all based on tho first and second section of the civil rights an 01 .j and were respectively prose cutions umler that act for not admit ting certain colored persons to equal accommodations ond privileges in inns or hotels, in railroad cars and in thea tres. The defense st up in every case was the alleged unconstitution:.lity of the law. The tlrst and second sections of the act which wen the parts directly in controversy, are as follows: Stction 1. That all nersons within the jurisdictirtu of the United States shall be entitled to full and equal mjoy of aecomnjdations. advantages, faeili ties and privileges in the United States that the public can on land and water theatres and other places of amusement subject only to the limitations estat- lished by law, and applicable alike to citizens of every race or any color, re gardlss of any previous condition of servitude. The second section provides that anv person who violates tlie first section shall le liable to forfeit $-'jo0 for each offense, to be recovered in civil action ami also to a penalty of from $.jO0 to Ji,(MJ fine or Imprisonment for thirty days to a year, to be enforced in a crim mat prosecution. Exclusive iurisdic lion is given to the district and circuit courts 01 the tinted states hi cases arising under the lawg. The rizhts and privileges claimed by, and denied to colored persons m these cases were full and equal accommodiitiona in hotels, in l U UV iVM, ladies cars on railroad trains, and in th tlrtJi3 circles in theatres. The court in a long and carefully pr?- , suuJiford, Toumans & noycrs is bead pared opinion by Justice Bradley holds: Q"rtcifor our Fkmr in Medicine Lodo. They Flrst-Tbat conzrets had Kocoiisti- wm &y ttltional authority to pass the law in question under either the thirteenth or fourteenth aim i.d.nent to the constitu tion. Second that the fourteenth amend ment is irdiibitory upon states only, and the legislation authorized to be adopted by c mgross for enforcing that amendment is direct legislation on mat ters respecting which tlie states are pro hibited from making or forcing certain laws, and ordaining certain acts, but Is corrective. The legislation necessary and proper for counteracting and re dressing the effects each of law or act. That in forbidding the states, for exam pip, to deprive any person of liberty or property without duo process of law and giving congress power to enforce the prohibition, it was not the intention to give congress power to provide a due process of Jaw for the protection of life liberty or projicrty, which would em brace almost all subjects of legislation, but to provide modes of redress for counteracting the operation and effect of state laws obnoxious to tlie prohibi tion. Third That the Fifteenth amend ment gives no power to congress to pass the sections referred to, because that relates only to slavery, a!id invol untary servitude, which it abolises and gives congress power to pass laws for its enforcement, and that this power on ly extend" to the subject matter of th amendment itself, slavery or involunta-. ry servitude and the necessary incidents and the consequence of these conditions. That it lias nothing to do with the diff erent races or colors, but only refers to slavery. The legal equality of the diff erent races and classes and citizens le ing provided for in the fourteenth amendment, which prohibits states from doing anything to interfere with such equality. That it is not an in fringement of the thirteenth amend ment to refuse to any pt rson equal ac commodations and privileges in an inn or place of public entertainment, how ever, it may be violative of Ins legal rights. That it imposes upon him no badge of slavery or involuntary servi tude w hich implies some sort of subjec tion of one pe:s m to another and in the capacity incident thereto, such as inability to hold property, to make con tracts, to Ik-parties in court, etc., and that if the original civil rights' act which aliolished tlies incapacities might lie supported by the thirteenth amendment, it does not therefore fol low that the act of 177 can be supported hy it. Fourth That this decision affects on ly the validity of the law in the states, and not in the territories or the district of Columbia, where the legislative pow ers of congress are unlimited, and it does not undertake to i.ecide 'what con gress might or might not do under the power to regulate commerce with 'for eign nations and amongst the several states, the law not being drawn with iiny such view. Fifth That, therefore, it is lb odmi- ion of tho court that tho fir.-.t and sec ond sections of the HCt of eoteT.-svj of March 1S77, entitled "An act to pro tect all citizens in their civil and legal rights," are uneon.stit itional and void, mid judgment should be rendered on the indictments accordingly.
