The young men who receive promo
ton are the men who don't drink on
the sly. They are not men who watch
for the clock to strike | 2 and then leave
their picks hanging in the air. They
are not tie men who growl if they are
required to attend to business five min
utes after the whistle has sounded.
They are usually the men who pay the
closest attention to the details of their
business, who act as if they were try
j g to work for their employers interest
Instead of to beat him at every crook
and turn. They are the men sho give
the closest attention to every practical
detail, and who look continually to see
whether they can do anything better or
not. This class of men are never out
of Job. They are scarce, they never
loaf, and they do not ask for their pay
two Or three weeks before pay day.
When the years summary is made
up it will be seen that no state in the
Union will be ahead of Kansas on the
balance sheet for the year. The sale
of lands ard the entries Of government
lands were never greater in the state
than last year; and the people who have
taken up and bought homes in Kansas
are most desirable acquisitions They
are mostly thrifty persons who have
been educated in the cast, and bringing
the system that has been enjoined upon
them by the barren lands Of the east to
work on tie fertile soil OF Kansas, they
Will soon make all that region of western
Kansas bloom, which at one time it was
held could never be adopted to agricul
tural purposes. -Enporia Republican.
