at is hardly necessary to state q fact
so well known that but little Of the
public domain in Kansas is open to
pre-emption and homestead settlement
For 800 miles west of the Missouri
river the unoccupied public lands are
worthless for any known agricultural
purpose.-F. Scott Monitor.
That short item will give the public
a very fair idea of the intelligence OF
the men who edit papers in some por-
tons of Eastern Kansas and Western
Missouri. 1t is unnecessary to de-
nouuce it as a falsehood, for every boy
in the State of average intelligence
knows that there is not shadow of
truth in the entire paragraph. Within
200 miles of Fl. Scott there are tens of
of acres Of public land, bet
ter for every known purpose of agri-
culture than can be found in Bourbon
county. 1t is short-sighted wisdom
and a non-paying policy that gives out
to the world such pretended facts.

DEAR EDITOR: Here sit facing the

keep up your steam. Now let me add
few resolutions for husbands for the
new year:
l. Be on good terms with your neigh
Dor, even if you have to keep a dog
and SHOT gun to help you.
2. Have good word for everybody
and if you have good luck, stretch this
rule so as include your mother-in-law.
8. Allow your wife some privileges,
and if she wants TO get up and build
the fire in the morning, don't be mulish
and insist OH doing it yourself.
4. Don't be galloping about the
country with subscription paper for
the heather, when the woman next
door is perishing with cold and hum
ger.
5. If you must swear at your wife,
have some system about it, say devote
one day a week to that kind of recre-
alton, but don't mix it in along every
day.
6. Do something for the day and gen.
Grafton in which you live, if its moth
ing more than to speak all encouraging
word to your wife while she is putting
up the winter stove.
Z. Don't teach your boy to work, for
if you do the first thing you know he'll
want to pitch in and get living for
himself and then who'll squander your
property when you're gone.

Ex-senator Pomeroy's Views on
the Cuban Question.

Ex-senator Pomeroy writes the fol-
lowing letter to the editor of the
Marysville Ne,as:
WASHINGTON. d. c., Dec. Is, 1875.
DEAF SIR: A stray copy of your
paper dec. 11th) has reached me here,
and your editorial on the Cuban
Question" is worthy of all commenda-
ton. have had it copied b. one of
the city papers and it has been most
favorably commented upon.
Why should not these struggling
patriots-so long trying to burst the
chains of tyranny, and a foreign des-
potism-be recognized, and have such
rights accorded to them as bslligerents
are entitled to? All the presidents
among civilized nations point that
way. They have maintained a war
for seven years. and still maintain 1T,
and our Government should at once
recognize them. Indeed, would not
only give them "belligerent rights"
but recognize at once their independ-
ence. And then we ought to make q
reciprocity treaty, the same we have
with the Sandwich Islands, taking
their products free Of duty, and they
in return take our manufactured
goods. This would give us one of the
best markets for the products of farms
in the west-snch as bacon, flour, etc.
and make us as independent of the
rest of the world for sugar, molasses
and tobacco as we now are of cotton.
This would add to the price of those
products sold by Kansas farmers, and
cheaper those articles they have to
purchase. If other nations objected
to our course in this regard. would
listen to the Cuban appeal many years
ago ard annex them at once. Then
the long agony would be over. They
would have both peace and freedom.
To this end l am glad you have a
voice to speak. Truly, ETC.,
S. G.. POMEROY.

Kansas.

The Chicago Railsyay ReUiec speaks
as follows of the rapid aud substantial
growth of Kansas during the past five
years:
"The Kansas State census, March l,
1885, gives population of 52S, 427, an
increase over the United States census
of 1870, 164 ,03S, or more than six per
cent. per annum in spite of the terrible
wears of 1873 and 1874. In the United
States the increase from 1850 to 1870
was 2 1-5 per cent. From March l,
1874, to March 1, 1879, the emigration
from the State on account of drought
and locusts exactly balanced the i'm
migration. The growth of some of
the new counties since 1870 is striking;
Clay from 2.942 to 1872; Cloud from
2,123 to 7,l70; Cowley from 1,175 to
S,963; Howard from 2.79l to 1851;
Jewell from POI TO 1850; Republic
from ,2Sl to S,O4s; Sedgwick from L.
O95 to S,3ll; Smith from &C to 1876;
and Sumner from % to 1925. The
oldest counties and those of more re-
cent settlement, but well settled in
1870, alike show good progress.
Atchison county has grown from Is
