Heretofore the principal part Of the i'm
migration to Kansas, by rail, has gone
into the southern and southwestern part Of
the State, on account Of the superior sd-
ver,ising OF the country, ant the extra lib
erali'y Of the railroads of those sections in
holding out inducements to immigrants to
settle on their lands. But at iast, after ten
long years OF waiting W., OF the great
northwest, are likely to be favored with at
least goodly portion of the immen-e i'm
migration destined to flow" into Kans as
this year.

Tie aboye statement gives the amount
paid by the Leavenworth TINES las; year.
We are now paying at The rate Of nearly
one thousand dollars. If this statement Is
true, the Leavenworth TINES is paying
more than any other paper in the Missouri
Valley, except our Kansas City name sake.
When the Kansas City Times says it il
NOR paying postage at the rate named in
the above statement, IT gays that which is
not true.
We will put up one hundred dollars that
it does not now psy one-half of that sum,
and we will accept the report OF the Post
master at Kansas City, for the fret quarter
Of 1879, as proof Of the fact.
We further ray, that the Leayenworth
TIMES sends oUt larger number OF it-
daily issue, through the male, than does
the Kansas City Tunes. and We challenge
them to the test.
