lola, the county seat of Allen county,
is pleasantly located near the confluence
of Elm Creek and the NeOsho River,
and on the l.. L. & G.. railroad. The
Neosho at this point only needs to be
improved to furnish good water power
for mills and manufactures. Good pure
water can be obtained at depth Of from
fifteen to twenty-five feet. 1t has three
churches, Baptist, Methodist and Pres
byterian. and an excellent school build
ing. The different branches of business
snd the professions are we'll represented;
and property can now be purchased at a
reasonable price which must steadily
increase in value.

the chief attraction of the town. The
wonderful cures performed by this water

this county with less than half their
land in cultivation raised corn enough
when sold at 25c. bushel to pay for the
whole tract. Any one looking tor new

The republicans of Orono, will have grand
rally meeting at the town hall Monday evening.
Hon. John \. kasson OF Iowa, and Hon. Charles
W. Slack of Boston will be the speakers, and a
general turnout may be expected. This Is one
of the towns that the democrats stole last year by
res0rting to the most mean and contemplate
measures, which were utterly disgusting to any
decent and respectable person. The democrats
went so far as getting boys under age 10 go and
throw votes for their tcket and when one of the
influential citizens went before the Grand jury to
get them indicted, il was afterwards found that
the Jury were seven for and five against That was
the political complexion Of the jury 1t Is disgrace

democratic pary, who are continually crying "lloN-

| Gober Iiden and the Shinpaster Hendricks on

wanted to be the governor Of this State, and at
the same time one of the bitterest enemies to all

man that the democratic party are supporting Tor
the Governorshp of this State. How long will 1t
