They All Hell Ov r to Tills Side The ItlehnntKOti-Scott Case The Pnik FlKlit Tlio Council. Queer Award of Printing. There is considerable indignation ex pressed over the recent action of the county board of supervisors in regard to the county printiug. The county uses over u hundred different forms of blanks. It was decided , as usual , to re ceive bids on these. The board is com posed of three democrats and two re publicans , and it seems to have been the deliberate Intent of the democratic members to award the contract to the democratic organ here , no matter what bids were received. At least this was indicated by the subsequent result. Of the bidders the Avocu Mail proved to bo by far the lowest. The board concluded the bid of the Mail was too low , and as some one suggested that the Mail could not buy the white paper for the price at which they offered the blanks , it was concluded that the Mail must furnish a bond. This did not , however , knock the Mail out of the ring , for it came up smiling with a lirst-elasibond for & ! ,500. The only way left was for the three democratic members to boldly face the situation , and vote to give the print ing to their democratic pet in this city. The two republican members of the board protested , and had the roll called so as to put themselves on record , but the majority ruled , and the parly plum was given out. It is felt by ninny that it is the county printing is thus to be given to a party organ , as a part of the party spoils , it would be much more honorable to give it outright , with no pretense of trying to save the county expense. The ask ing for bids , and the going through the motions of opening them , anil figuring them through is labor and money thrown away , for the lime is past when the tax payers can bo fooled by such a bit of pleasant play. The n..iuit of such procedures is already manifest. There are some olllcci which have put in bids in the past , thinking that the board really wanted competition , but on finding that it was a sort of farce. and that the print ing would bo awarded irrespective of thc-bo bids , now refuse to bid at all. In tliis way the county does not get the benefit of such lowprieesnscompotition , honestly considered , would bring. The binding was given to a republican paper which chanced to be the only bidder on this clnss of work , and satis fied with getting this crumb it is keep ing very close-mouthed. There are one or two other papers which hope to get a share of the money to be paid for printing the proceedings , and as that award has not boon made they doom it the part of discretion to say nothing which will otlend the democratic major ity in the board. The Br.K has no bid in , hia no oeea.- ion to fear or furor , and its readers will therefore have the benefit of the facts n the matter as they will probuhly be trough t out in the courts. It is ( iiiite ikely that an injunction suit will be itarted to prevent the board awarding , ho contract. Such a suit is being alked of , not by the bidder who should lave b-'on gi\en the \\ork , but by citi- : ons of the republican faith , who do not 'iclieve in submitting to such an over riding of the interests of the taxpayers 'or the sake of rewarding a party organ.

Grcenamuyor. fjniulloril null Tenant. In the diutrict court yesterday the long drawn out ciu > o of Mrs. Riohardsor against Colonel C. R. Scott came to the closing arguments. The case has heen fought sharply on both sides. Mrs Richardson claims damages growing out of the trouble she had with the de fendant while renting his farm. She claimed damngos because he had forci bly taken possession of the farm , eject ing her and take the personal prop erty , crops , tc. Also for maliciously prosecuting her for conlcmut of an in junction issued ugiiinst her interfering in farm mat ttirs ; also for calling her a blister , " this being deemed slanderous. Colonel Scott justified his taking pos- session of the farm by her violation of the contract , and that this matter had been tried and adjudicated in court in his favor , An injunction wns issued by the court , and when informed that she was. violating this he had his three informants make voluntary affidavits of the facts , before he made any complaint. She was lined , and this , ho claimed , was conclusive evidence , in the absence of anything to the contrary , that ho had acted ns uny prudent man would who desired to protect his property. As to slandering her by ailing nor a "blis ter , " ho explained that her brother , a stranger to him , cnmo 10 him and in formed him that she was a ' "blister , " and that she had leased a farm of u man in Nebraska once , and had just such trouble with him , and stuck to him so that it nearly ruined him. Colonel Scott wont to one of tier bondsmen , who was supK)3ed | to have some influence over her in th.u matter , and told him that ho wanted his assistance in avoid ing litigation with tha woman , at ? ho hud been informed J > y her brother that she was a regular blister , and that another of her brothers had written him about the same effect. The plalntilT claimed Urn * , this appel lation was a slander upon her chastity , but the defendant insisted that it was not used in any such sense , and that the person to whom It was said did not so understand it. Tlio pl.ilntilT , through her attorneys , pictured very vividly how grasping and abusive Scott had been- , that ho had bo- pun annoying' ihis woman voon txftor she went onto hi fnrm ; that ho had charged her with stealing sheep polls , with kill ing the pigs , and doing other aets , and had Interfused with her pioper use of the farm. Then' ho took advantage of an Iron-clad contract , drawn with hid woll-hnown legal sharpness , took poises- sion 'of everything , and proceeded to have her arrested on one pretext and another. The verdict In the case will probably bo reached and announced to-day. Special Hnlcs Thin Week nt 401 Ilrnmtwny. Wool dress goods 110 per cent dls- lount. Wool blankets 110 per cent dis- ount.

A bill has been simultaneously intro duced into both houses of the legislature legalizing the action of the city in con- doming the ground for Fairmount park. It has not been reached in cither house , but it is probable that it will como up in a few days. The attorney who are fighting to got the park away from the city lool : upon the introduction of this bill us a practical admission on the part of the city that its right to the park is Biased on a defective title to say the least. On the other hand it is urged that this is no such admission of weak ness , but that the bill if passed will for ever prevent any more such suits being started as are now annoying the com- milssonors and alarming the public. If tlio present suits are decided in favor of tlio city , this bill , if passed , will make tlie clinching so certain that tlio re will bo an end to all future trouble of a like nature.

A Locomotive lioat In the QuickKand Wichita Beacon. "In the construc tion ol the Kansas Pacific and Atchi- wm , Topeka & Santa Fc railroads , " bait ! II. I. Carter , a railroad contractor ol St. Joe , the other day , t-one dilliculty of frequent occurrence was mot witl which , ns far as my experience goes , is unique in railroad history. I refer to the trouble arising from quicksands From western Kansas to the mountains quicksands uro to bo found in nenrl ; every stream , no matter how small am to successfully bridge them required an expenditure out of all proportion to the size of stream to bo crossed. Wo tried pile driving , but the longest piles dis- pcarcd without touching bottom. Then filling with earth nnd stone was tried , nnd met with equally poor success , as the quicksand was apparently capable of swallowing the entire Rocky moun tains. The only means of crossing a quicksand was found to be to build snort truss bridges across them. This was very expensive , but , was the only thing to bo done. ' As nn instance of the practically bottomless nature of the quicksands , I may cite the case of an engine that ran oil the truck at RiverBendnboutninety miles from Denver , on the Kansas Pa cific. The engine , a largo freight , fell into a quicksand , and in twenty minutes had entirely disappeared. Within two days the company sent out a gang of men and a wrecking train to raise the engine. To their surprise thoj could not find a trace of it. Careful search was made , magnified rods were sunk to the depth of sixty-five feet , but no en gine could bo found. It hud sunk be yond human ken , and from that day to this has never been discovered. Cattle and horses are frequently lost , the only animal that is safe being a mule the only animal that never gets caught. No greater instance of the intelligence of this much-maligned quardrupea can " > o cited than the skill and cnro with ivhlch it avoids all unsound bottom , As ts hoofs are much sniallorand narrower ban those of a horse it would mlro In ilnces where a horse could safely pass. ; { ecognizing this fact , whenever a mule 'cols ' the uround giving way under its eel it draws back and cannot bo in- luced to advance u step , although a ivhole drove of horses may have inline- lintely preceded.
