We make some extracts from letter in
the Hodgeman Independent, written by W.
G. Haun, on the aid business:
There is a class Of men who receive aid
who are not entitled to any, and ought to be
ashamed to ask and receive. l think it IN
manly and dishonorable. mean men who
have herds of cattle, teams, &C., &c. Many
OF this clsss have taken their teams, gone
east and begged loads of provisions, grain,
&c, pretending it was for the needy at nome
but on arriving at home sold their cargoes
and returned for more charity.
l am and old man and came to Kansas be-
cause was poor. have suffered from
dIouth as much as any one of you. There
is one thing have not lost with my crops
and that is my native energy and industry.
Look to yourselves and see that you have
retained in your own bosoms that sentiment
which makes men self sustaining and hon
orable. To beg certainly is not an occupa-
ton to elevate the mind of man. Then
arouse, wake up to the circumstances which
surround you; 60 to work and you are all
right.
Wages are good and in demand along the
line OF the railroad. The santa Fe have re-
Gently raised the wages on their road from
81 10 to Sl.25 per day, on account Of the
scarcity of hands. One months labor at the
above price will give more money than any
one man or family can hope to get during
the winter, unless there is thorough sitting
of the plan by which aid is distributed. No
man should receive or be allowed TO take
aid unless it is positively known that he can
not do without it. No man who distributes
aid should be allowed to receive a dollar s
worth on his owe account.
A grain and produce dealer Of Larned in
formed me that he had bought three car
loads of stuff which WIS begged and pretend.
ed to be for sufferers of Hodgeman county.

If there should be wool famine within a
year or two there would be nothing in the
fact that would surprise some Of the princi-
pal authorities upon wool matters. Bot has
carried of many sheep in England and on
the continent. and it is said that sheep are in
numbers far below the average. 1t NAY be
that the American wool-grower is at las'
about to find his reward for having chung
patiently to bis sheep through the long pc
riod Of low prices.

When the Observation-Disclosures alley
Convention WAS held last March We said the
move was not calculated to gain the purpos-
Is sought. The last Republican State Con.
vention demonstrated that fact-the Arkan-
saw gets nothing. A dispatch from Wichita
sends this moan: The news Of the nomina-
lions by the Republican State Convention
was received with great dissatis faction. The
whole OF the western and southwestern Kan
SIS, comprising over half the population Of
the State, was ignored, the nominees being
in pocket comprising less than one-eishth
of the state territory.

LARsEp, KAs., Sept. 8, 1880.

LARSED, KAs., Sept. ., 1881.
To the Editor of the Times.
Who ever saw better country than Kan
sac; rain nearly every night, and now and
then on Sunday. Weather very fine, neither
too hot nor too cold; too wet or too dry; ev-
erything growing on the run. Here We are
ceiling better and cheaper grade ewes and
finer and cheaper rams than any one else
car; putting up wind mills for mere trife,
that bid defiance to the strongest gales, and
furnishing Lsdd's sheep dip al cost.
We are eating our drilled sorghum that
was put in last Of June, with our reaper and
four horse-; il stands Eve to seven feet high
and as thick as hair or dog; and part OF
il grows on a sand bank that we had left al
ter rolling our rams in it before We ehesred;
we lost the big boom but got the sorghum
and the balance Of the sand. Our sowed corn
is equal to the sorghum; our rice corn that
was planted late in July stands highe. than
q short mans head with heads like mallets
four acres Of sow.d corn that was lightly
plowed in first of August is IS inches high,
and thick and fine. Broom corn planted fore
part Of July is less than rod high, and
heads just coming out; where will it be when
il gets its growth. Millet never looked bet
ter. The grass on the plains almost hides
our sheep. All the deserted ploughed lands
are covered with heavy coat Of blue grass,
and all we lack is million OF sheep to eat
the feed, and the owners to hunt jack rab-
bits. We have made up our minds that it l.
worth starving one year to enjoy the luxu-
ries of the next. When look over the hills
and plain, covered with luxuriant green
grass, cannot help shing that more sheep
men would find locations here; there are
plenty of vacant claims, and good houses
waiting for occupants.
We have 20 acres of ground ready for
wheat, and will SOW as soon as our seed
comes. All our farmers are preparing to COW
wheat. Some are coming back who left las
spring; say they are sorry they left; they dc
no. find any place better than Fawnes coun'
". They will know better the next time.
Mr.. Bennyworth has his sugar refinery
about ready for operation; and We are an1
iously waiting to get come Of the first pro
duciion. Bat if our sorghum hay suits GU
horses and sheep this winter we don't wan
anything better than wooden mill, and vi
think the sorghum will improve the favol
Of the mutton. / forgot to say that wher
our large corn and sorghum is growing j
where We scattered our sheep manure. Don
never say that manure is of no use in Kan
sas; or deep blowing, cultivating and roll
ing. We have been abe to pillow all summe
but it is stent to get the crop of of tn
ground. What will it do to the wheat j
the question now before us. W. J. c.

In addition 10 the flow Of gold to this
country the tide Of emigration at New York
continues in steady volume, almost every
nationality in Europe contributing thereto.
The arrivals in August were $500, about
1000 in excess Of any month during the
last twenty years. At Philadelphia there
has also been large increase. The steam.
ship companies anticipate a continuance Of
the movement until late in the autumn. 1t
is estimated that at least seventy per cent. Of
the August arrivals went west.

Advice to a Young Man.

My son, don't DC in too great hurry
to accept advanced opinions" IT is
the thing to be advanced" in this
progressive day and generation, but
there heap of shallowness in it. Did
you never notice, my son, that the man
who tells You he cannot believe the Bible
Is usually able to believe almost ANYTHING
else? You will find men, my son, who
turn with horror and utter disbelief of
the Bible and Joyfully embrace the teach
llngs of Buddha. 1t is quite the thing
Just now, my son, for civilized, enlioht1
ened man, brought up in Christian coun-
try and an age of wisdom to be Budd-
INST. And If you ask six men who pro-
Tess Buddhism who Buddha was one of
them will tell you he was an Egyptian
soothsayer, who lived two hundred years
before Moses. Another will tell Won
that he brought letters from Phonicia
ana introduced them in Greece a third
will tell you that she was beautiful
woman of Farther India bound bv her
VOWS to perpetual chastity a fourth will
with little hesitation, say he was a Brah-
ma OF the ninth degree and holy dis
ciPie OF Confuclus; and of the other two
one will frankly admit that he does MT
know! and the other will say, with some
INDIGESTION, that he was either dervisb
OF the Nile whatever. that isl or a feLo de
SC, ne can't be positive which.
Before you propose to know more than
anybody and everybody else, my son, be
very certain that you are at least abreast
OF two-thirds of your fellow-men. I
don't want to suppress any inclination
you may have toward genuine free
thought and careful honest investiga-
ton, my son. l only want you to avoid
the great fault Of atheism in this day
and generation; l don't want to see YOU
try to build a six-story house on one
story foundation. Before you criticise.
condemn, and finally revise the work of
creation, my son, be pretty confident that
you know something aboutit as it is, and
