The two democratic factions Of this
state have taken the parts of the two
cats in the classical fable Of the monk
ey and the cheese. The Click and
Blair factions have quarreled over the
COmmissionership of the General
Land Office, until Mr.. Sparks, OF III
inois, has gobbled the position and
the Kansas boys are left. The Click
crew attempted to play little sharp
practice on tn Blairites, and. headed
ed by Gov. Sharp, they collected their
.Osces, including most of the Blair
fellows excepting the leaders, and
called en- 17G8se upon President CIeye-
land. During that visit they sprung
a recommendation for Mr.. Click.
The Blair leaders, discounted. but
not overcome, presented to the presi-
dent the nefarious school land record
of Gov. Sharp, including the resoIu-
tons of censure of the last Kansas
legislature. The result was a failure
all around the Kansas camp. 'Bretn-
ren should dwell together in unity.

Are we Progressing?

To 81 person interest ed in the develop
ment of a new county, the study OF our
own since its organization. can not but
prove profitable. Organized rs d county
III 1872, it ranks as the hfty-sixth in pop
ulation. OF the eight counties organized
in 1872, but three, Reno, Harvey and
Smith, increased in population more
rapidly during the years 1888 and 1884.
The population of tue county, according
to the last Agricul ural Report (of 1888
84), was 1928, an increase of G92 as com
pared with that of 1888. The number
OF acres under cultivation IN 1884 was
1l4,2S3 exceeding tha5 of 1888 by &c.

the following: In 1888 there were cuI-

I.18I, while the number of bushels
in 1884 was I.778.245, exceeding that

Well, GIr. HERALD, I hardly know
what to write about this week, not he
cause there is nothing to write, but be-
cause there is so much to occupy a
granger that one can hardly find
time to look up news items, and as there
Is no war in this neck o'woods we lat
urally feel backward
We have watched the progress Of the
''onpleasautness'' between the reporters
from Brushy, and feel greatly relieved
st the termination of the same. .'Shake
hands across the bloody chasm, - boys
and never fight through the paper again.
Ed Clark and Frank Arnold killed
thirteen rabbits all at one shot. Fact.
The young men met at the den of ye
scribe enc evening recently, forthe pur-
pose giving US a surprise.
As the boys forgot to bring their girls
they turned the sparty into well, I
guess they called it q Goldfish ball.
Gymnastic performances were freely
INDUCED In. The boys showed that
they possessed muscle. and action, aud
seemed to enjoy themselves.
Frank Arnold has Sine Albaugh's
timber planted in good shape. If there
is not a good stand it viii not be his
fault.
Jim" Davis has bran new mule.
Everything points to a wedding soon,
Mir. ana Mrs. Adams, and Mr. Bough-
toA attended the II. E. quarterly meet
ing at Hillside. We would rather have
q hungry coyote loose among our chick
ems than those three n. Els. They
looked hearty when they returned.
Have not had time 10 search them.
J. II. Fleisher has extended his hog
lots. Had to do it. He's the 'hoggest'
man we know of on this flat.
o. r. Clark now has an addition to
his residence. 'Spect the boys viii
have a ''time" there soon.
Ed Clark now hourishes a bIaeksnake
over a pair Of mules. By the way, Ed
is quite a trader. Traded teams, traded
wagons, sold a goat and would not OBJ
ject to being Sheriff,
8. T. Miller has gone west to grow
up with the country.
Corn planting still goes on at a good
rate. A large acreage Is being planted.
Some think that because the weather is
so cold, we viii not raise any corn. 1t
always grows warm after a cool spell.
NJ. Osborne is building on his new
farm, and new improvements are con
templated by other parties.
Breaking sod is the order OF the day
now, and we al look forward to the
time, when the increased rainfall, and
the new railroad viii help us TO make
this one among the finest counties in the
state.
The Sunday School at Bethel is still
kept up. We have not been able to at
tend this spring, but hope to be soon
or send q hand.
