against adversely with large family to
support, she should receive the encourage
ment of the entire community"
There is a text for temperance lecture
in these facts, that would stir the must
caIloused heart. It will be utilized, no
doubt, in the campaign.
Many people wonder how 1t Is that
the temperance cause has grown, and IS
growing, so strong. Just such incidents
as those narrated above are the founda-
tion on which it rests. There Is prob
ably not family in the whole land where
a son, or brother, or father, has not fallen
a victim to this degrading and democrat
izing vice. Upon some hearthstone 1t
has cast the ineffacable shadow of crime;
to others it has brought want and priVa-
ton to others, sorrow and desolatiOn.
Into some homes 1t has stalked ike a
course, and the whitening heads Of faith
er and mother have been bowed with
shame and grief, others it has invaded
like thief, roboing the wife of love and
happiness. and chilling the hearts of iu-
nocent childhood.
This is why, throughout the land,
people are declaring war against liquor
1t is cry like that which went up in
Egypt when the first born Of every
household vas smitten, and the desola-
ton of bereavement filed every home

A great many people are under the
impression, when about to travel
East or West. that it is cheaper to
purchase tickets to the nearest i'm
portant city or town and thence to
their destination.
Inquiry of any ticket agent of the
Burlington routes will prove the rates
quoted to be the lowest to all points
via. this line, as they are invariably
based on the most direct routes.
Daily fast express trains are now
run between Denver and Chicago and
Kansas City and Denver, and by a
recent arrangement with connecting
lines, through cars are run in connec-
ton with the Chicago express via. Pc
ora to Indianapolis without change.
Throug tickets, quick time, bag
gage checked to destination, elegant
Pullman Palace cars and day coaches
are but few of the many attractions
that tends to make the Burlington
Route the favOrite with the travelling
public. P. S. EUsTIs,

a TAXI ron A LECTURE.

Abouttwo years ago one Bergman of
Hanover, victim ofwhiskY, abandoned
his family, leaving them without sup
port and with mortgage of $500 on
their little home in favor of one Chas.
Jackers. The wife, in dispair, commenc-
ed suit for damages against Jaokers,
who haG been keeping a saloon, for sell
ing liquor to her husband, and received
"a Judgment for 81 400 against him.
Jackers has managed to evade the judg-
meAt, and has, meantime. foreclosed the
mortgage, ana on Wednesday morning
turned Mrs. Bergman aud her seven
small children into the street. The
Hanover Democrat, from which we learn
these facts, says:
Through the kindness of some friends
another house was obtained, her goods
moved into it, and her aud her children
again settled to house keeping. She
offered, so we are informed, to pay the
rent in advance to remain where she
was, but this would not do, as the object
seemed to be that she must go. Mrs.
Bergman is a woman of unimpeachable
character, of good natural ability, who
has been and is yet living under very
trying circumstances, aud yet she is rais~
ing family of girls who viii compare

HOusei in Phil1ipsburg, Oct.

THE LESSON IT TEACHES.

The August dry spell has ruined the
corn crop of the western part Of the
State, and injured much of that in the
eastern portion But, in eastern Kan,
sas, the early varieties of corn that were
planted early we're out Of danger before
the drCuth sch in.
Year after year, che same story is told
and it IS now universally admitted that
corn ought to be planted early, and that
quick rpeuing varieties should be used
and Jet every fall a large number of
our farmers remark, "My early corn,
what there was of it, did well, but the
most Of it was injured by the dry spell.
Last spring, the early planted corn
came up, but, in consequence of the
long vet and cold spell, did rot grow.
However, as sooU as suitable weather
came, it shot ahead in manner that in
dictated that the roofs bad not remained
inactiVe-and is IN splendid condition
now.
Too many things are allowed to inter
fele with the corn planting. 1t has to
give way whcu ether things should. A
iarmer goes out after a rain and finds
the land where he left off too wet to
pillow. Another Pars of his field may be
just right, bat he stops altogether rather
than change has base-and month af-
forwards har1ies in his crop, is behind
in working 1t, because of the lost time,
aud, when he gathers his nubbins in,
glOomily remarks that farming in Kan
sas Don't pay
The ground rs now getting hard, and
come are stopping their plows to wait for
rain. The result will be late sowed grain
and smaller crops, if not All entire fail
IRE next year. The successful farmer
is ole who keeps ahead with his work
When two horses are not sufficient he
pu;s on three, and if the land breaks UP
cloddy he goes over it with harrow OF
roller. He prepare his land and has ii
ready to plant when the rain comes in
stead of waiting until then to do hi;
blowing,
Of course, it is often better to dc
things late than not at all, but, there can
not be too much said on the Importance
Ofpushing the season.-Kansas Farmer
While we endorse the foregoing arti
Gle as whole, VIC beg leave to correct
the total failure theory so far as Phillip.
county is concerned. We call the
FARMERS attention to Mr.. Nettleship's
offer, but do not wish it understood that
his is not an exception, but it is fac
that the corn crop of Phillips so unity is
far from failure, and other crops com
partive!y good. There is lots of corr
this year that will go 40 bushels pei
acre.

THE JUDGE" AT HOME.

Judge James belong has returned
to Independence, and claims that his
grand work of charity in aiding the co.
600 destitute Southern refugees has been
sadly broken into by Gov. St. Johns
letter denying that any suffering existed
among that class in this state. If St.
John has done this, and has stopped
fraudulent begging. he has wrought
great work, and is entitled to the graft
tude of the people of Kansas In this
connection, it might De mentioned that
the Judge" proposes to give "a complete
history of the whole affair" at a public
meeting In independence. If he was
called upon by a committee of citizens
appointed by public meeting and given
twentv-four hours to leave the state he
has disgraced and lied about, it would be
more in accord with the eternal fitness
of things,
1t might also be mertioned that the
Independence Star is very much ruff1ed
because the Times has exposed the tricks
of Friend" Daniel Votaw, who has
been engaged in the same business of
begging; and that paper proceeds to
give Votaw a good character. Now,
if Votaw will give the Star man reco-
mendation-or, Judge DeLong nigh.
do-the work would be complete We
have no donbt it would be easy to get the
thing done.@Leavenworth Times.
The time for permitting such frauds
to be Perpetrated we had hoped was
passed~and we hope that the next party
who travels through the east as this
man belong has done, will be arrested
for obtaining money under false pre-
tenco and punished accordingly.

NUMBER 20.


A correspondent writes as follows to the
st. Louis Journal Of agriculture in an
swer to inquiries respecting Washington
Territory:
IL would say to the Six.year Subscriber,
Jackson county, Illinois, that the climate of
that part OF Washington Territory, west of
the Cascade mountains, is mild, rs gen
eral thing throughout the wear. 1t is not
cold i'll winter, especially in the southern
part, except an occasional day. In answer
TO the inquir, in Journal Of Jan. 18th, they
bring Minnes"ta into comparison and say
that the southern houndar, of Washington
Is two degrees farther north than Minnesota,
therefore the climate is essentially the same;
that may do to tell, hut tile facts will war
rant no such theory. Muueso is strictly
an inland state. whilst Western Washington
is an ocean country and gets the brneiit Of
the warm Japan current the same AS England
receives the warm current uf the Gulf
stream which mmlties the climate. As well
compare blac, and white.
Last winter. 1850 aud 1881. all kinds of
stock grazed throughout the whole winter
in Clarke, Cowlitz, Lewis Wahkiasum and
Chehslis counties, and the 3lst day of
March, 1851. ut Cape Disappointment, 496
feet above the level Of the sea, all kinds Of
wild flowers were in bloom; also red and
white clover, aud the tame grasses wereover
six inches in height.
On the 3d day of April the writer Of this
visited Vancouver Barracks. located at Van
couver, Clarke county. Washington Terri
tory, and saw Wild pnms in hio-sou', and
lettuce, radishes, potatoes and other garden
truck, growing in the gardens south oi the
Barracks. Ia the markets VAS to lie seen
fat beef slaughtered right oil OF these pas
! tures, grass fed. In Missouri and Illinois
the weather WAS cold. and all kinds OF stock
had tu he fed with dry food
Washington Territory is far superior to
any part OF Missouri-they have advantages
there that far excel the most favored paint
here in Missouri. The Pacific Coast is the
place par excellence to 60 to above all other
places. &.
