WpNSSDAY, OCTOBER I7.H860.
THE KDITOft OF THI QAZEITI.
Very unexpectedly to us, the sage
editor of .ike Grasshopper Falls Gazette
pays his respects to u personally,
that linM nmntiln fliat 'u l.
111
ibe hof, wepresarae,jthatwe liave
nothing else to do ibaa enter into a per
sonal controversy with him, and that'
by provokiugJu diKuesioB, lie. .will be
enabled, to attain some selfish end. If
lis be luVaim, we shall be under the
sBessitv-of disappointing hiai. Our
taMMon to Kansas is of a different char
ater,witb nobler purposes in view; and
wejaspe. tube able to accomplish some-
tbiapora worthy of the employment
of? ratiaaal powers.
Vfaatjre have ever done to the edi
tor of tbe0js2&LloJxcHe his ire or 111
Tvill.is.BJort.Uianwe are able to divine.
We hare BOt.ap much as mentioned his
name ;. bat.in onr prospectus stated in
advance .that we were not establishing
a press., ia Kar-sas Jbr .the purpose of
interfering will other. or ia any spirit
of opposition or rivalry ; but with kind
feeliiurs fur. all, .and a deTre to cultivate
friendly relations with the entire frater
nity, ic the territory; and we have" never
written aword for the Independent that
by the most tortuous construction could
lie twisted into an intimation of unkind
jies toward any one, editor or not.
Having thus conducted oarself and oar
journal, it was the least of our expect
ation that any one was watJnng for a
chance to soy tome tnalictout thing about
us.-. It would appear from the remark
of the" editor ia question, 'that he had
been on the look out ; 'for he says, "at
vx, expected' He was, therefore, deter
mimed in advance to'fatd fault or pick a
quarrel.
We cannot consent lo quarrel with
you. friend .Spalding ; but if you will
cone to Ohio, we will try to show you
how-to receive a brother editor with
courtesy, at last;'aud welhint we will
fchpw you how to receive onewith
politeness and cordiality certainly we
'should uot all upon 3 ou wilh malice
prepente, and welcome you lo our midst
with a growl.., . M
The least, one gentleman can expect
from another U courteous" treatment ;
and we ha4a.nghy$lAVIlru
our.brelhren of the pre in Kansas, and
on.thisjscore we have no complaints to
aaake. The Gazette alone .has seen pro
per -to prsue a different course, and we
are .satisfied Vliat it shall have all the
gtorfmud profit lcnn acquire by the
inveetment.it bss,chosen to make.
It isrwjbt "d proper for editors to
dia.oa questions of policy; bat in dis
cussing them they should not forget,
tha rules of jjropriejr. andneyer for a
inoaaeal presume that every one will
agree with as in all oar views ; and if j
we , tail to support our views by facts
and rgusaeatsjet then be demolished;
we ahalbbeas highly gratified to be
convinced of an error.asthe one who
may enlighten us aad -point out a "more
exeellealiway.", ; , t 4
We' have never entertained a single
feeling of ill-will to asy portion of Kan
sas., .In our .remarks, we hare always
spoken of leadiag principles and facts,
wh&a are ibeoundaiKMi of. all perma-
neat prosperity. We have not penned a
line in the spirit of "vengeance" against
Atchison jCity or any other town, coun
ty or.neighborh.ood; nor have we appeal
edtothe .prtjudktt of any locality for
premmt ttfed$r popularity, or to excite
unfriendly fftUngi in th breattt qft any
again enr &; . , iIfc

venturing out into aqnagniHCaud.arge
hira nTwheniWe either know hewill
sTak.orJielieve itfc we.nr- his enrmy ; it
we point out the danger, we are his
friend. Just so with cities. Those in
terested in them may be vmturing out
amid the bogs of a dangerous marsh,
and if we fall in with their withes, and
tell them there is no risk to run, go
ahead.when reason and experience' both
prove that there t danger, we are highly
culpable.
We say all. the river townt are trying
to outgrow the country from whuh they
mutt receive their permanent tupport;
asd pointing out the folly of such a
course, we advise them to hold up, take
breath and exercise a little wisdom
make fact and not their withe the sw
at of action.
Look at D.ivenport, Keokuk, and all
the river town of Iowa. Behold the
thousands, ay, millions 01 dead capital
invested m them, and while they stand
as monumeuls or light-house, let no
others be so foolish, as te run with eyes
open upon the skoals and quiukandi,or
iuto the breakers. That kind of folly
won't pay.
Now, as we said, we are friendly to
nil the interests, all the towns and all
the "cities" of Knnsas we wish them
all well; bat we are not going to be such
a knave as to tell the people of each
city or village that their place will soou
rival Si. Louis or New York 1
We art not goiBg to seek present
applause at the expense of truth, nor
present prosperity by catering to preju
dices which in ibe. end .will be exposed.
We design lo pursue ariUwaeetttaighi
forward course, and have a recordwe.
.hull not be ashamed to meet in a lew
.ears. As already it mailed, we may
be mistaken ; we make no pretentions
to infallibility or perfection ;. but we
shall require more than Mieers and
scurrility lo change our opinions.
We have made the foregoipg state
ments as a fuller exposition of our views
and intentions, and the motivet that act
uate ut. Truth ; right and honetty are
our guides ; ifiwe fail to follow them,
the mistake will be of the "head, not
of the heart." ""
Our neighbor of the Gazette has evi
dently a limited knowledge of the busi
ness dose on the Ohio. For his enlight
enment we will simpiv state that the
"freighting' at the single fort of Cin
cinnati exceeds that of he whole lerri
lory of Kansas put together, with St.
Joseph aud Kansas City thrown in !
Snreiprexuiue w would be entirely IS
ilie bounds of truth lo say that as much
leaves Cincinnati in a tingle week, wheu
the river is in good order lor boating.
as is carried by all the overhand train"
that go through Kansas in a year ! Of
course men of any real knowledge of
such again will net place much reliance
apoa statements made in so loose a
manner, and so wide of- the mark, as
that of our neighbor that the "overland
freighting each .year amounts to more
tonnage than the entire shipping of the
Ohio" ! ! Why. it would hardly take
more than the cargo of one of our
mammoth boats to load whole train 1
Mules and oxen are not equal to steam
yet ; but quite sa near it as the allege
lion of the Gazette is to th. facta ia the
case.
As we said at the outset, we have
bo personal quatrels wilbany one. We
have established the Independent in no
feeling of rivalry or nnkindness to any
one; we wih to culiiva'e kindly feelings
towards all and with all. We shall not
condescend to leave iLe higher purposes
which should actuate every journalist
to engage in petty squabbles. We have
no controversy with Grasshopper Falls
or the Gazette. We wish every body
and all localities well. We shall be
pleased to see general aad speeial pros
perity, aud hope that fortune may pass
by. none. If our wishes can be earned
- j 4
out, the iatercourse we have wilh the
press of Kansas1 aad the country shall
.be dii'nified.courteous'and gentlemanly;
and If any of our cotemporaries bbji-ci
to this couise, we hope, they will "cut
us at oBce; if we iraagress, let our at
tention be called to the faet on the'spot.
We liarbor no unkind feeling towards
our neighbor; we wish him well; but he
must b1 "thiuk haid of. us" because
we 'eaanot aesommeiUte him wiia a

toSeriMf in Xjuhs. -It
will be remembered that in our is
sue of August 1st, we published a short
editorial on the prospect for crops this
fall.in which we predicted lhal unless we
should be favored with hewy showers
of raia soen, the crops would fail; and
that in that event, unless srpplies eould
be procured from the middle and west
ern States, where they would have a
surplus of every staple production,
"the people of Kansas miht well 'des
pair of getting anything, more than a
scanty snbsisiance the coming winter."
Tlionjih we have tried to believe that
-uch would not be the case, or a: least
iliat Jefferson County would be an
"exception lo the rule," we have for
some weeks' been convinced that the
prediction we then iriatie has the mis
fortune of being loo true. Farmers
who.iwomoiiUis ago thought they wo'd
have from thirty to filiy bushels of good
corn to the acre, now say they canrot
harvest more than half that amount, and
that what they have is hardly" nt lo feed
to horses. We have examined loa.ds of
corn in vain to find a tingle tound ear,
and we believe that, taking nil the com
raised in the county, it will not average
one butfttl in ten that will make good
bread. The lectnl rains would have
made some late potatoes, but for the
early frosts,which have blasted the last
hoptnpf ever getting the amount of the
seed planted last upring. -"s, " '
We make ilie following extract from
call for a County Relief Meeting,
which was signed by more than forty
of the best cilixens of the county, all of
which we are compelled, by the force
of c ircuBMtance, lo endorse :
'It is now very evident tint, owing to
the failure of every production alapted
to the soil of Kansas, unless relief cm
be procured from the States that have
been favored wilh abundant crops this-
year. tery many of Hie citizens of the
Territory must suffer for the want of
protixions and clothing. There are nu
merous families in Jetferton Cmut
where, it was thought a few week Hgo,
there would be rufficient produce raised
for home coiisumpiion who now have
neither pro L-ioua nor money t buy
ititrttr Willi, NWIS lite urBWHUwrMUcir
equal to the number of the need) : and
there are scores of others many of them
men of properly who h..ve not the
ready or convertible means with which
to keep their families from suffering un
til ihe genial warmth ol spring will en
able them to resume active employment
under mom favorable auspices. Een
the well-to-do farmirs of K-insss hate
but little or no corn to sparo, and what
they have, will not turn out an average
of one bushel ia ten. thai ' (or bread.'
Measures are now being adopted to
organize a County Society for the pur
pose of obtaining relief for the destitute,
or those likely to be. and to obtain vari
ous' kinds of seed for the spring plant
ing and sowing. The object of this or
ganization is a Iaudble one; and we
hope every friend to the aeedy will lend
hi influence to facileate lhe objects of
the Society.
