GOOD ENOUGH.

John T. Tucker, of the firm of Nc
Cracker & Tucker, who invested some thir-
teen or fourteen thousand dollars in lots and
lands near the city short time since with a
view of establishing canning factory in
Wichita, writes A. L Austin, who had sold
them their lands, that he had read an ac-
count Of the action of the board of trade
touching the Madison Canning Factory
company, and that he thought the offer
more than bonus but generous, and he
thanked Mr.. Austin for making the state
ment he did. The McCracken g. Turner
company had asked nothing in the way Of
bonus, only deserving the good will and
cooperation of our citizens, which they
will be entitled to most surely.

Arkansas City has been compelled to re-
sort to an occupation tax, so the Traveller
says, because of the licenses cut off by the
prohibition law. We do not believe that
our down-river friends will find an occupa-
ton tax a good or popular move. 1t is an
unequal expedient. Better make a direct
levy of taxes, under the law, which falls
with great deal more equality. So far as
licensing whisky permit drug stores, that il
the proper thing. Some Of our towns will
be overrun with drug stores unless a stiff
license is fixed.

Reports reach the city porkmen that
there is lingering germ of hcg cholera
among the swine of this section. There is
nothing particularly alarming that such is
the case. 1t is a reminder that people who
have hogs should see that they have healthy
quarters, healthy food and good water in,
stead of pens in cess-pools, then the disease
will be off of itself The hog raisers cannot
take too many precautionary measures to
prevent its spread.

and their report of the progress of affairs
generally in that new town and country is
very encouraging indeed. The town is in
the midst of fine section of agricultural

satisfactorily, the corn being in advance of
this section. Secretary of State Allen and

hearty.

denominations to establish religious services

school work, was present last Sunday and
heartily congratulated the teachers and
scholars on the success of their undertaking.
1t is pleasing to note that large proportion
of the scholars in attendance are children,
who did rot go to any Sabbath school pre-
viously. The school. conducted by efficient
officers and teachers, is increasing in effic-
iency and interest These services will be
held regularly every Sabbath morning, and
an evening service will soon be commenced.
All those living on the south side of the
city, particularly, are earnestly invited to
attend all these meetings.
