An AuDE CLAIM.

+. L. Auds. who wa candidate for the
Office OF District Judge in this county ON
the Democratic ticket, and Of course
beaten by Richard Rising. says no is go
ing back Of the returns and will be
Judge anyhow, whether elected or not.
He claims that the State Constitution.
when framed. decreed that the First Ju-
dicial District should have three
Judges; that in accordance with such
wsishree Judges were elected
Risins. AIesick and Burbsnk-who
held position. for two years; that the
subsequent action Of the Legislature
abolishing two Of the Judges was uncon-
stitutional, consequently that he, having
been before the people aud received
many Of their votes at the late election.

On the same hypothesis a third eandi.

also have been elected. Judge Auds would

taken. were 1t not for another
clause in the Constitution. giving
the Legislature full power to increase
or diminish the number Of those judges.

situation might demand. That settles
the matter. and apologies from Aude are
in order. Aude's claim will be audited
by the Board OF State Canvassers and

Considering the extremely crooked and

natural difficulties surmounted in Its

more TO do in the premises than any
thing else. Men who have well proven
themselves TO Be- faithful. true and
and thoroughly efficient are retained,
regardless OF cost, and thus We see con-
structors and engineers, who have been
running over the road for years. still
kept steadily in employ. Their faces
are familiar TO the travelling and trafiek-

the right sort Of men to depend on.
No accident occurs which can fairly DO

No trouble or expense have been
spared to make tho road.bed as hrm and

from time to time. from the

Fifty Per Centum Buttom Land

From the agricultural report, as also from
surveys, halt Of the entire area OF Sedgwick

county in the State comes within seventeen
per cent. OF such showing There are one
thousand and eight square miles OF land il
Sedgwick county. or six hundred and forty
four thousand one hundred and twenty acres.
three hundred and twenty-five thousand and
twenty acres of which is valley land proper,
making two thousand aud sixt cen bottom
land farms. Probably in all the United
States there cannot be found such an extend
ed tract of rich valey--any place where over
a quarter OF million acres of bottom land
can be found within the limits of single

Sedgwick county is the grandest agricultural
county in the State of Kansas, and she will
be the richest in a very few years.

those OF Grand, Glen, Marble. Knob and

characteristic hunting sketches, Bisbing by
several exceedingly attractive mountain
sketches, Lancelot by spirited drawing Of the
remarkable rock-sculpturs on White River,
and Henry worrall by iui page views at We

Our Church Privileges.

Kansas has always been especially proud OF
sill her interests concerning the home, the
school and the church. Eastern people very
often hesitate about removing 10 what they
call the ''iar west" because they imagine
that life here is rough, society in chaotic
state, religion not respected, and the church,
which they have been accustomed TO attend
may not yet be Established. This is mistake
The truth is, our society is made up Of the
very best and the most entsrprisng people OF
the east--only the liberal-spirited and broad
gagged ever leave their old homes and asso-
Citations Tor the west. Wichita boasts seven
church organizations, all fiourishing and all
harmonious. and our Sabbaths here are as
orderly, quiet and well observed as they are
in the oldest settled communities OF the east
And in the line of Sabbath schools, literary
societies and social parties, New England
does not excel those exemplihed aud Illus
