TOO MUCH 4RBIIR4RINESS.

Geo. ". Stinson, county attorney, was
in the city last Wednesday, looking up,
it is said. evidence for the purpose of
prosecuting violators of the prohibitory
law. We understand that the hunt was
successful hir7,Tn ChitJ.
A similar hunt was made in Lenora
to-day, by the county attorney and
probate Judge, and one man deprived of
his permit, and we understand that if
another party is not very careful how he
sells whisky FOR headache, pain in the
back, coins, ETC., he will be served the
same way. It is foolisbness to try to
make a community that has the intelli-
gepce of herd of horses believe that all
the whisky sold i'll Lenora is strictly for
medicinal purposes, especially SO, since
there have been SO many drunk men IN
town during the last two or three weeks.

1t is SO nearly everywhere in Kansas.
The probate Judge should not have been
given the power to revoke licenses with
out even the form of trial preceding
the revocation. AS it is now, a judge
who can rise entirely above wronging
that druggist, and thereby beneftting
this one, is simply an angelic being.
There is, however, one way in which
the people, collectively, may prove them
selves as powerful as the probate Judge
of their county. They, can watch his
revocations, and compel him-if not in
one way. then in another-to revoke the
permits of all other druggists who have
done as the judge charges the object of
his revocation or revocations with having
done. When a probate judge has revoked
one mans permit to sell whisky. on the
ground that the man had violated the
law, he should be given the grand bounce
if he is caught in the act of shielding
any other druggist who is violating the

day, May q, when the governorship OF

Just received a peculiar letter from New

as principal reason why he should not
be selected for so important post that,
Notwithstanding he had been United
States senator, he had degraded himself
by working as common printer. At
torney General Garland Immediately ex-
claimed, IF that is the case am for

fervor, sand SO am II" Thereupon the

over which the southern cattle might pass

committee has done aside from mapping

will be constructed at once for the
passage of beef cattle across the through
trail at various points along the route as
they may DO needed, at which points the
trail will be very limited, not to exceed
the width Of an ordinary highway, which
bridge or crossing is to be fenced with
wings of mile CT more on each side of
said trail or crossing. A southern
boundary line or fence is also proposed,
and may at once be put UP, which, if
done, will make a trail of upwards of
fifteen miles in width, and leaves all

STOCK FARMING.

The Phillipsburg Herald of last week,
after copying our criticism of its former
article on Climatic Changes" remarks
thus:
The Herald does not in anywise wish to
mislead its readers, and especially that
class who have left their old associates
and every tie of endearment that has
bound them to their eastern homes, in
order to come west and start afresh in
the new, vigorous world before them.
The WORLD will notice that the Herald
used the following language: "Of course
it takes several years to produce this
transformation, but it is sure to come in
time" There is at present great rush
to the HON estead country = the extreme
west and southwest portion of the state.
AS an act of prudence we would advise
parties locating land to select it with a
view, always, to its stock, as well as its
agricultural advantages. In this county
the crisis is past, and all kinds of crops
are comparativ > ertainty, but during
the preceding hall Lozen years, the men
who have kept considerable stock are the
men who have made it win. During the
dryest seasons the farmers can raise
coarse feed enough to keep their stock,
and when there has been partial failure
of small grain and other crops, this has
carried them through. The Herald has
always advocated mixed farming as the
surest and best. With our mild climate
and luxuriant herbage stock is always a
profitable investment, not only in the
homestead country, but in the older
court tics as wei. Brother Tilton's head
is generally level, it certainly is in this
instance, and we think that there is really
no point of difference between us. A
little of all kinds of crops, plenty of stock,
and good sprinkling of energy are sure
to win. Mixed husbandry is our watch
word, first, last and all the time.
Brothers Lewis and Horns, "there is
really no point of difference between us. y
If people continue to come to this New
West for the seeming purpose Of blowing
their money into exclusive farming, the
Herald and the WORLD will not be respon-
sible, either directly Or indirectly, for
such depravity of logic
