The Political Outlook,

The next presidential campaign will have
one important featufe--it will virtually ex-
press the pc opie's verdict upon the questions
at issue between the leading political parties.
For behind our government, behind our pol
iticians, behind all the legislative machinery,
rings, and petty partizan organizations, is the
real ruler and director of our government
the sovereign people. Every official will be
brought before the inquisition of the peoples
tribunal, and all proved unworthy will be ig-
ANONYMOUSLY sent home to tend their farms
and their own business. The people will en-
dorse nothing whatever, be it a president or
a pill, that has not proved itself a genuine
article. That the American people have so
long acknowledged, by both word and pat
ronage. the genuineness and value of DR..
Pierce's Family Remedies, is proof conclu-
sive that their use fully justifes their discov>
erer's claims for them. No other proprietary
medicines sell so largely. The Golden Medi-
cal Discovery is sovereign remedy for all
scrofulous, blood, and skin diseases. 1t has
pretty thoroughly superseded tie old-time
sarsaparillas. The Favorite Prescription has
no equal as remedy for those chronic weak
nesses and painful affections peculiar to wom-
en-. Pleasant Purgative Pellets, sugar-c coat
ed and scarcely larger than mustard seeds.
are now the popular laxative and cathartic.

Norton county was first settled in
the fall of 1872, and the population
in 1878 was about 1000. The i'm.
migration of the present season has
been very large.
The northwestern portion OF
Kansas is beautiful rolling prairie.
Our county is about 80 per cent.
prairie and about 62 per cent. up
lands.
What timer we have is q fringe
along the streams aud are the box
elder, cottonwood, ash, willow and
black walnut varieties.
A great many claims have been
taken under the timber culture act,
but the trees planted are yet very
-msl.
The principal streams are the
Solomon, flowing ,stward through
the southern tier OF townships, the
Prairie Dog creek through the cen
trial part and the Suppa flowing
northeast through The north western
part of the county. All OF the FORE
going have numerous small tributar.

erous as in Grant county, Wiscon.

here. Good wells can be obtained
by digging from 80 TO 100 feet deep.

various parts of Tn county. Lime
