EMPORIA.-Tt has been our pleasure re-
Gently to spend two or three days in the
pleasant city of EmpOria, as che guest of
our old friend Jacob StOIler, postmaster
and editor of the News. Ali good men
have n good word fer EmpOria. 1t is one
of our oldest and richest Southern Kan
sGs towns. 1t is q model of temperance,
sobriety, ENTERPRISE and culture. lt is the
home OF several who have been and are
still leading representative men Of. the
State. among whom may be mentioned
Ex-Governor Sam Crawford, eN-lieut.
Gov. Eskridge, ex-Speaker Plumb, the
ablest man south OF the Kansas river, and
eX-Speaker Stotler.
Our friend and co-Iaborer, Hon. p. b.
MaXson, State Agent of the grange, having
established his headquarters here may be
regarded as a resident of EmpOria. He
is one of the first settlers OF Lyon county
and owneS one OF the hest farms In the
county. lie is ore of the best men in the
State.
The State Normal School Is located here
with = splendid building and a flourish
ing institute of Jlearhing. The fpHblte
schools of the cay are Prosperous and
thoroughly equipped for educational
work. EmporIa has two national banks
and one OF the finest, if not the finest has
inesA street In the State. There are seY-
eral fine residences in the city, with beaII-
titully ornamented grounds. Business is
healthy, strong and prosperous. In short,
EmpOFia is just such . town as decent
men dislike to leave and ScalawagS haste
to shun.-ParsOns Sun.

Michigan VS.. Kansas.

A son Of MIR. Pearsail who is residing in
Kansas, the other day wrote his father 4
letter stating that his state beat the world
on corn and potatoes, and as AN Hlustfa-
tiOn told him of some corn stalks IL feet
high. The old gentleman thought the
matter over while and then walked out
into his corn field and pulled up four
stalks, each measuring IS Ieet in length,
and each bearing I large well developed
ear, and some of the stalks had two. Then
MIR. PearSall took his hoe and went out to
tle''tater patch and dug few small
pOtatoeS-One of which measured Il
inches in circumference, and 30 of them
weii he'd 81 pounds. The corn and pota-
toes were brought TO our OIL e by our old
friend Pearsali. Kansas may raise i'm
mense crops of grasshoppers-in fact in
that braich of agriculture she has 10
equal1but In corn and potatoes she. cam
not equal Michigan, especially that part
of it in which Sturgis is located. Kansas
Is great State, but with the Yankee we
can say that she Is ''small potatoes and
few ina hill" compared to Michigan
Sturgis, Mich, Times.
Hold on In our Office we have corn
stalks over 16 feet high. each having two
ears larger than the ears of the Michigan
editor who wrote the above. AS fer ,sota-
toes, Hank PearsaIl is now ont raisiB" his
big ones with 4 derrick.

A little plain talk on this subject is nee
essary. In the first place, W. In Green
wood county understand the Situation ex-
actly. Emporia, Burlington and Hum
boldt want railroad extending through
this county. They want it to secure the
trade Of GrePnWO God county. 1t is merely
n business affair. Now Greenwood coun-
~ wants railroad; she has her prefer
ences, but a road from either OF the above
named points would be u good one. 1t
would do much to secure to either town
the entire trade of the county. In fact
We think that the three towns mentioned
are well aware that 90 win or lose this
trade Will be life or death TO them. Hith-
erto EmpOria has managed to secure the
lions share of our Grade. She has acted
on true business principles and has made
it for our Interest tn trade there, or in
other words, she has offered the best bar
gains. Now IL she wants To keep IL she must
Keep up the same policy. The Ottawa
road will be completed TO Burlington.
Then burlington will he our shipping
point unless EnpOria pushes her railroad
enterprise. Greenwood county has 3 trade
worth competing for, and time will show
which town will get IT. Eureka Herald.

the above facts. The narrow guage, now,

were saved. There was no insurance
on the property. The citizens are sub
