He puz The Galva Incorporation A couple of weeks ago the county commissioners granted a petition from the citizens of Galva for the incorporation of tlieir town. A few days afterwards, however, judging from their action, they rememliered that the petition was from Galva of the county court house bond election fame, and thereupon took back their decree and refused to issue the nect-ssarv impers.

The county attorney declined to allow the name of the state to he used in comneling them to do their duty. Messrs. F. H. Robb and M.

N. Bremen went to Toneka, where they obtained from Att. Gen. Bradford the right to swear out in tho name of the state a mandamus competing the county board to issue the necessary papers tor making Galva a city of the third class. The laws of the state of Kansas grant the county commissioners the authority to incorporate but not to disincorpiirate a city.

The plea that the decree had not been made because it was not recorded, is mighty thin. Such usage would repose the decreeing power in the clerk and not in the board itself. Another thing: if the principles of local which our government is professed to be based, are ot any force, the commissioners have no right whatever to deny tlie prayer of the petitioners in this case, unless it can be proven that the ietition is not genuine. If Galva wants incorporation she has a rijjht to tie incorporated, and it is no business of other people whether incorporation is best for her or not. Our county commissioners are in mighty small business, and in shielding them our county attorney is in a trifle smaller.

Take 500 old fogies and misers men who do not believe in giving capitalists anything for risking money in their town and put them on the good site. Then take 200 good, live energetic, get-up-and-get sort of fellows, who never let an opportunity pass to advertise themselves and their town and put them on the poor town site; then watch these towns for five years and you will very rapidly catch on to the secret Of town building."
