TO England

Perhaps no country in the world
Aas ever received such thorough Ed-
vertisiug as has Kansas and Colorado
during the past four years at the
hands of Mr.. Beverly r. keim,
General Passenger Agent OF the
Kansas Pacific Railway. of course
this is Mr.. Keim's business never
theless we are conscious of the great
boon OF having the resources Of vast
country, WHOSE wealth rs yet com
paratively unknown to the world,
and to which our city Is, as it were,
the great key, thus blaz0ned abroad,
and we are correspondingly grateful.
In this good work Mr.. Keim has
been ably assisted by his friend and
coadJuior, Mr.. William Weston, the
General Travelling Agent of The
road.
The magnificent exhibition OF pro-
Sucts Of the great West made By
fkese gentlemen at the Kansas City
Exposition of 1873, and for which
they gained the gold medal, will still
be fresh in the minds Of thousands,
and similar displays were carried by
them to the American Institute Fair
I'm New York, the great fair at ST.
Louis, the Chicago Exposition, and
the festival Of Mardi Gras, at New
Orleans, at all of which it was con-
ceded by the multitude and heralded
by the press, that they outshone all
competitors.
And now they stretch their tenta-
Giles to grasp still wider, and early in
January Mr.. Weston sails from New
York for the British Isles. where,
with headquarters in London, he will
tell our cousins of the resources of
Kansas MS a stock. farming and sheep
raising country its pre-eminence as
the Eldorado of the sportsman, and
the glories and attractions of the
Rocky Mountains to the tourist and
invalid. He has no small obstacle to
overcome, in the unfortunate fact
that American enterprises are just
now very distnsteful in Europe, but
MS he depends on his references and
connections there, which are Of the
highest, we predict for him great
success.
Mr.. Weston is an E~ngiishman by
birth, his father having been a
banker in London for upwards of
thirty years, and he now returns
after an absence of fifteen years, dur
Ing which time he has travelled
round the entire globe, to forge a
link bet Seeu his connections here
and those in England, which, as long
ms he continues in his present pro-
fession. will be of equal Importance
to US and TO MIN, and with Mr.. Keim
on this side to do the honors to those
he may induce to visit us, we are
sure that they will meet a reception
worthy Of gentlemen and strangers.
Mr.. Weston has been five years
with the Kansas Pacific-three
among us-and has proved himself
an efficient railroader, a good citizen
and a well bred gentleman. He in
herits from his fathers the love of
horse, dog and gun, and his being
thoroughly posted on the field sports
of the West ION which subject he is
writing a book, will be of much
service to him in working up BUSH
ness.
lie has been appointed special cou-
missioner of emigration for the State
of Kansas by Gov. Osborn, and has a
similar appointment from the Gov
ernor of Colorado We wish every
success may attend this important
project, and as Keim and Weston
have never failed in what they
attempted, we anticipate good results
from the foreign mission Of the Kan
SIS Pacifc.-JoHHdE Of Commerce
