A DECISION withdrawing indemnity

A DECISION withdrawing indemnity
limits along nearly every land grant
railroad in the United States was is.
sued by Land Commissioner Sparks,
July 18th. This decision virtually
throws open to the settlers 10000, ,OOC
acres Of land heretofore claimed by
railroad corporations, and comprises
some of the best lands in the United
States. Every land grant in Mime
sofa is affected by this decision, and
those who have settled on what is
termed disputed lands" under this
decision, have a good show to hold it.

Our Bow.

AS announced in last issue, THE Sun
appears under it's new management.
| Our aim is to run NEWSPAPER in
every sense of the term, and one de-
voted to the interests of the public
the interests of Morris and Stevens
county. We will spare no efforts to
furnish to its readers all the interest
ing news of the county and to deal
fairly and squarely with all topics Of
public concern. We understand that,
In running a newspaper there is more
work than fun or money, but of the
former we are not afraid if we only
get in return value received in a lib
eral share of the public patronage.
The time is so far distant when
discussions of political nature will
be expected, that it may be superflu-
GUS for US to say any thing on that
score. But, we will state, however,
that in state and national politics,
THE Sun will endeavor to maintain
its recognized staunch democratic
principles, and in local politics the
most capable candidate for the office
will be supported.
In conclusion, to dispel any false
impression to the contrary, the pre-.
sent publishers wish to state that the
change of The Sun was effected by
absolute bargain and sale and that
they are the sole proprietors-that
they will alone share the profits, or
bear the losses, of its future business
career. Respectfully soliciting a
continuance of it's present liberal pat
ronage, we remain,

Local Advertising.

The virtue Of advertising is Of
more consequence, in general way,
than ii is often credited with. a
too contracted view is so fervently
thrown around its salutary influences
that those who read a business card
seem to think that its import is Of
but little consequence to any one
besides the advertiser. This, how
ever, is a great mistake. for the com
munity at large is benefited, accor.
ding to our way OF thinking, by
every business card Of a town store
appearing in the local papers. 1t
needs no very skillful reasoning to
clucidate the proposition. for there
can be no better method adopted to
improve a village, town or city, than
that which keeps the bulk of trade
at home. By 80 doing the results
Of industry are widely difnsed in the
expenditures made, society become s
co operative to q considerable eS.
tent, material improvements are en-.
couraged, and pride Of place is fos.
tered. Our live storekcepers are be-
ginning to understand the value Of
advertising. and our residents fail
not to reward them for their enter.
prise. a contemporary puts the mat
ter in this wise When the business
men Of a town fail to advertise ex
tensively they diminish the impor.
tance and trade oflthe place. and
permit more enterpr'sing localities
to take the latter from them. Al
though done for their individual in
terest, advertisers should be looked
on by citizens of the towns where
they reside, as 10 some sense public
benefactors, and they should be en-.
couraged accordingly. One mer
chant who advertises extensively is
worth to his own town and people
more than forty that never show
themselves in print. and should be
for this reason alone preferred, az.
suming that be is. Of course, q fair
