Capt. w. D. Covington was in
town Sunday, So was S. w. McElrOy
and David G. Clark, and one or two
other methOdical demOcr9 is. Just
where they held divine services is not
knOwn.-R araOi1 Independent.
AS the majority of the gentlemen
mentioned are from this place, we took
occasion to inquire into the matter,
and were informed by Mr.. Clark that

If you want to locate in place where
everybody is happy, where the air is
pure, and free from malaria where
there are no saloons, where there is
not an idle man or woman except from
choice, where the roads resemble race
track through a lawn, where homes
can be secured at q nominal figure,
where there are good schools and
churches, where you have good railroad
communication, where taxes are light
where water is plenty and easy of ae-
cess, come to Phillips county, Kansvs.
The hall in which the Republican Ma
tional Convention will be held is the most
admirably arranged auditorium ever seen
in this country. 1t is not so large as that
of ISS0-that was so large that persons
in portions of it could neither see nor
hear what was going on. But it will
comfortably seat 5000 persons and each
one of these will have a good seat. The
pressure for tickets is enormous. If
there were $4,000 seats, instead of 5000
they would all be covered by the appi
cations made.-CChampiOn.
