going to some old settled community

5 THE COUNTY SEAT.
While as yet the county seat remains
where it was first located when such
place as the now thriving city of Ashton
was a. yet unknown, and where a man
might drive back and forward and pass
and repass thousand times without be-
ing aware of having passed it, yet it will
be seen at a glance that Ashton must
eventually be selected as the permanent
location, for besides being the most avail.
able and central town, more easily &C.
cesslble than any other point, 1t is des-
tined not only to be the most important
town in Sphinx county, but Of this part Of
the valley. Besides its railroad facilities
it has the best natural communication
with all parts of the valley by means Of
wagon roads, all converging to COM
mon center here, and from their location
easily made available at any season Of
the year. Already has the postal depart
ment recognized its availability by locat-
ing mail routes to all outlying points,
with their headquarters here. It is
also the only town in the county located
on the river and will be the
most satisfactory location for nine tenths
of the people Of the county. Ashton
is also located on the best line of railroad
in the world. whose connecting lines give
communication with all sections Of the
country and has received at their station
here ITS cars Of emigrants' goods alone
since March l, last, which fact Of itself
indicates its central location.
ASHTON WANTS,
a Touring mill. q fax fiber mill, broom
factory and additional business houses for
all the different lines as nothing is as yet
overdone. The railroad company are at
once tobegin boring for an artesiau well,
and will do everything in their power to
secure the welfare and prosperity of the
town, and with class of stirring business
men, such as Ashton possesses, there
need be no fear for the success Of
the town, it is well assured.
Good business and residence lots can
be obtained at the most reasonable prices
for as yet speculation has net received q
big boom like some towns in Dakota.
Yet. when one comes to consider the
many advantages this county and city
possess which other localities lack, 1t is
no wonder that emigration is beginning
to turn toward this fertile and delightful
region, and that people begin to talk OF
Ashton as the coming city of the vally.
Let any one who loves the west visit
SpInk county and take in its ravishipg
beauty, aud if he has ever dreamt OF
perfect land he will find his ideal here,
where the thoughts revert to the beauti-
full poem of Lovejoy:
love the west, and my home shall be
On its prairies broad and fair,
My heart is light and my thoughts are
free,
When breathe its bracing air.
The west, the beautiful west,
I have seen thee in my dreams,
When q foreign soil my feet have trod,
I have heard thy laughing streams.

Broad vs.. Narrow Wagon Tires.

from the chicago Tribune.
We have often wondered why people per-
slst in the use Of narrow wagon tires in any
section of country where the roads are OF
teach men that the narrower the tire the
deeper the wheel will sink down in the
mud. The prevailing width Of road wagon
tires 10 one and three fourths 70 two Inches,
when they should be at least doub.s that
II the tire were four inches wide, the wag-
ON would not sink one-quartsr Us deep in
soft roads, and these terrible ruts soan in
vet weather would net exist. Broad tires
have the effect of smoothing and improving
clay roads. The surface OF roads VIA s,a..u

row tire of q loaded wneon cuts through it
like knife; whereas a broad tire four or
five inches wide would roll over it without
sinking. If the wagons ia this city were

Tho wide tire wagon Is coming into

THE OLD FAMILIAR FACES.

I loved love once fairest among women;
Closed are her doors on me- I must not ee

All, all gone, the old familiar faces.
I had friend, kinder friend has no man;
Like an Migrate, I left my friend abruptly:
Left him to muse on the old familiar faces.
Ghost like paced round the haunts Of my
childhood:
Earth seemed desert was bound to traverse,
Seeking to lind the old familiar faces.
Friend Of my bosom, thou more than brother
Why vert thou not born in my fathers dwell

How some they have died and some thoy hays

when two people OF no genius OF taste for
themselves meet together upon such set

valustion in the land aud cash Of b. tn
parties. In this case the young lady is no

goes with her fortune, rather than her fnr-
time with her. These mako up the crowd,
and fill up the lumber of thu human race.
without hene6cepce toward those below
them, or respect 10 those above them.
The VACATIONS life arises from a
conjunction Of two people of quick taste
and presentment, put together tor reasons
we'll known to Their friends, Ia which
especial care is taken to avoid what they
think the chief Of evils, poverty, and ensure
o them riches, with every evil besides.
These people live in a constant constraint
before company. When they are in
observation they fret at each others car
riags and behavior; when alcne they revive
each others conduct. The happy marriage
is where two persons meet and vol lntalily
make choice of each other. without princi-
pally regarding or negleoting the ciroum-
stances Of fortune or beauty. These may
live in spite of adversely Or sickness; the
former We may, in ONE measure, defend
ourpelf from; the other is the portion of our
very make.-SIr Richard Steel.
