Ed. Register:-It seems to be be-
yond the power Of human endeavor
to collect enough items to make o re-
spectacle showing in the paper just
now, but as we do not wish to practi-
cally sever ourselves from your corre-
spending staff we will try to note a
few sentences. The topic most gener-
ally discussed is the winter, It's effects,
etc. Many are complaining Of having
frozen their feet, which will doubtless
serve for several subsequent winters
as a reminder of the severe weather of
the present one. Others are greatly
exercised on account of their corn that
yet remains in the field. And some
express the distressing belief that our
winter supply Of stock feed will fail
before spring comes, but, Mr.. Editor,
as we have the utmost confidence In
your capacity to prognosticate, and be-
lieving you prophecy in the REGISTER
last week to be logical and well
grounded we will try and comfort our
selves with the belief that spring will
come sooner or later. AS we have
drifted into train of clatter we wish
to ask If it happens to be q clear day

that for Southern Kansas ?......... Mr..

Wednesday from their extended visit
through the states Of Illinois, Indiana
and Ohio, where they have been visit
ing for some months past. Mr.. Stanley
gives very discouraging reports of the
grain crops in q great portion Of the
country through which he has trav-
eled. He says Kansas Is ahead in all
things and he is contented now to stay
in Kansas, the garden spot of corn
fields. And he says to the farmers, go
slow and hold fast to what you have
on hand for better prices are on the
road to Kansas for all kinds of eata-
bles. Yes, we all will see better times
in the spring, financially speaking.
The boom has started in Ohio and the
wave is coming west pretty lively.
And believe it, for pork has gone up
25 cts. since he got home, and is still
on the rise. We are getting even 4
cents now and will soon get A and be-
fore long cents you bet. Such greet
ing news will straighten up lots of ears
that have been hanging down for

to where she was one year ago, in re-

ey. We think we have tough times

lawyers If three fifths of their cases
were settled without their help; but
then it wouldn't last very long. The
only result would be that about three
fifths of them would drop out of the

are, it seems to me that it would be
better-for the remaining two fifths at
