Another LAND MARK GoNE.-Wm.
Clapp's old frame building has been
moved to give way for the new brick
which he ID about to erect. This old
building was put up in 1865 by Addi-
son G. Proctor, now successful st.
Louis merchant. 1t was the sixth or
seventh building erected in the place
il we remember correctly, and within
its walls was carried OH the principal
business of the town tor some years.
We remember that the county conven-
ton TO nominate officers under the
LeaVenwerth Constitution was held in
this building while it was being con-
structeG. Stephen G.. Elliott, who
lived in Fremont, was then quite
a prominent aspirant for political
honors. One VIM. Tam ahill, who was
much devoted to Stephens interests,
was u delegate in the convention. VIM.
made a good deal of merriment by
nominating Stephen for the different
offices as they were called. But Ste
phen's opponents seemed to be in the
majority, and he was unsuccessful.
Every few minutes Tannahill would
jump up and in lisping tones exclaim:
al nominate StheplIen G. Elliott"
Some gentleman would amend the
motion so as to prevent a direct vote
on Tannahill's champion. About the
close OF the convention, which was a
rather bOisterous one, Tannahill's ire
became uncomfortable, and jumping
up he exclaimed in thunder tones /:
"Misther Chairman, have anominated
Stheven G. Elliott theVenteen times,
and can't get him put" The convention
adjourned and Stephen went without
an Office. -F. -sF r

FREMONT.

Our township election resulted In
the election of the old township board,
J. s. Craig, Trustee; Coleman Hoops.
Clerk, and Hurlburt, Treasurer.
1t is TO be hoped that the newly
elected Road OVerseers will bear in
mind that they are responsible for the
condition OF the roads in their respec-
tive districts. The bridges across Al
len creek are disgrace to a town
which keeps its treasurer's pocket we'll
filled with greenbacks. A word to the
wise is sufficient.
The present wet spell comes just
in the right time for the spring setting
of fruit ard shade trees, which am
very glad TO see is being used for that
purpose. have time to mention but
a few names of those who are engaged
in the good work. Mr.. Field, on the
Lawrence road, heads the list, setting
500 apple trees, $50 grape vines, besides
pear, cherry, plum, and Siberian crab
trees, with a goodly number of small
fruits. y. B. Maxson is setting out
about the same amount. Mr.. Kirkpat-
rick, j. c. Maxson, II. J. Cilley, A. j.
Burdick. T. T. White, T. Hinshaw, Mr..
Ames, Cooper and Beaver, are enlaig-
Ing their orchards.
Peach buds are beginning to open.
The prospect for fruit is, to say the
least, good. C. D. B.

AGNES CITY.

Agnes City township is situated in
the northwest corner of Lyon county.
It is 9xl2 miles, and has about $64, 900
of taxable property. With the Raw
Trust lands taxed we would have
about half million.
As We are not troubled often with
candidates for oftice or visits from the
Sheriff, am afraid the good people
of Emporia think that nobody
lives up here. But propose to show
that we have quite a population. I
suppose it is owing to our being so ex-
tremely peaceable, attending to our
own business, and having superabun-
dance of Kaw Trust lands on hand,
that we are considered of SO little val
ne to Lyon and of So much value to
Waubonsee county. We think differ
ent from those who want a change in
our northern county line. We are
worth more situated as we are than the
whole of Waubonsee county.
notwithstanding all the draw
backs occasioned by the Kaw Trust
lands not having been put In market,
we are fiourishing young township,
and the settled lands are being rapidly
improved. Stock may be seen In great
numbers all over the country. It is
doing well at present. Notwithstanding
the severity of the weather.
Now to convince politicians and
others that we are worth becoming ac-
quainted with will state that we can
poll about as votes, and send you a
copy of the votes cast at our precinct
on the ID inst, for township officers

ORGANIzE.--What do our Lyon conn
ty Republicans say to rousing old
Republican mass meeting, to organ
ize for the campaign. Our enemies are
active, and we should move. Several
conventions, such as Senatorial, Judi
cial, Representative, ETC., are to be held
this fall. A new county central COM
mittee ought to be appointed; also
district committees. Judge Buck,
Judge Peyton, Major Bancroft, Cover
nor Eskridge, Mayor Jay, Col. Plumb,
Doc. Wright, F. G. Hunt and hosts Of
others we might name could give us
some good Republican speeches.
Lyon ought to continue to be the ban
ner Republican county. She is good for
200 Republican majority this fall, If
the work is done. Let us have a mass
convention ut an carly day, and get
the ball in motion. viii somebody
circulate a call.

A lady from Council grove who takes
THE NEWS intended to send to Leav-
enworth for certain articles of dry
goods, which she did not suppose she
could get in this part OF the country.
She read the announcements of new
spring goods by our merchants, in THE
NEWS, and concluded to come down
here and look. She found not only
much larger stocks than she had anti
cipated, but jast the articles she want
ed. onr merchants sold jest rs cheap,
too, as the Leavenworth merchants.
We are satisfied that there is no bet
ter point in Kansas to buy goods than
EmpOria. We see no reason why our
merchants cannot sell just as cheap as
any in the State, and we believe they
do it.

nate enough to possess one of the beau
timlly executed cards of invitation.
Many of EmpOria's "bright particular
stars" were in full dress, and to say
that they looked lovely would be but
tame expression. When the bridal
party arrived they found every avail
