Every species Of fruit bearing tree, shrul
and vine that is old enough is loaded dowr
with fruit. J. X, Mead brought in a few
branches, broken Irom his peach trees, that
present fruitful appearance, almost passing
belief Over half the buds. which were As
thick n they could be, produced from double
to triple peaches. On one we counted eleven
double peaches in the space of an inch and u
half. Whether they can possibly mature 80
thick or not is question, and if they grow to
full size the trees could never bear UP under
the. rich load. The fruit producing capa-
bilities Of this valley is unquestioned.
Is it ''in1ation" that troubles the editor OF
the EldOrado ZaDses. or only simple attack Of
Financial prostraton'' that induces him to de-
clare that lumber is twenty per cent. cheaper
at Emroria than at Wichita, and that nails are
a cent per pound lower in Eldorado than in
Wichita. Lumber Is sold here at the exact
figures that it is sold in Emporia and partly
by the same firms, and q, for nails or any other
species Of merchandise, our merchants will sell
as low at retail as the same class of goods eau
be bought in any town west of the Missouri
river, with the difference of freight only. I he
staple article Of calico has been retailing in our
city this spring at from three to six cents, and
we will wager the cost Of our cremation that
Eldorado merchants have not dreamed Of ask
ing less than from nine to twelve cents for the
same goods. Our merchants are liberal and
entcrprising, and will not be undersoldb by any
other town or by each other Bring over YOUR
family, and you VIII be surprised at the amount
Of goods you can buy for years subscription

| We want no mob law in Wichita. Within
week or two there have been many knowing
looks accompanied by the sly information that
in certain events a mob would be raised IN
Wichita to deal out summary justice. Against
emn protest. That day in Wichita has passed,
and it would prove 4 burning shame if such n
thing is given any counteuance. We have law
administered by just and equitable courts,
clothed with full power TO execute their judg-
ments and mandates, and officers that will not
finch from any duty, and there is not the
shadow of an excuse for these threats. Let
all good citizens uphold the law and its officers.

shrcwd friend and correspondent, Farmer
Doolittle," was in town on Monday and paid
his respects by calling at the headquarters
where reliable information is dealt out at 81 90

can get it. The eognomen or rather nom de
pllms, ''Doolittle," has been rendered mis-
homer by our friend. who has been putting in
the spring breaking prairie-doing much, on
Canine creek, Dog, for short-which accounts
for the long intervals between visits and the

Spring creek that he was wont to indite. But
after harvest we hope to hear from him regu-
