said travelling man the other day. when
fellow salesman said to him in the office
of the Dodge House, Fred let's go to
tie barber shop"
Another was recently heard to say on
the train, I'VE generally pass the Dodge
City BARRIERS by, for we get as good work
elsewhere, and cheaper"
Again it was heard said in conversation
| between some parties on the train that a
certain family, ssthat preferred Dodge to
any other place in the southwest, was
prevented from settling there on account
Of high rents and cost of living. 1t was
said that ordinarily there was difference
| of ten and even fifteen cents per pound
OF the price of butter here and at Larned
and eggs in the same ratio.
These things ought not to exist against
the business interests of our city. There
| is no reason why there should be such
differences in prices The times were
when high prices were all right IN Dodge
but that day is past. The Dodge of that
| day is far to the west now, and the high
prices incident to frontier life have no
right longer to be tolerated; nor will
they, if those doing business do not con-
form to the demands of our present
Dodge in this matter, others will come
in. 1t certainly would be to the advan-
tage of all to encourage immigration and
the mere general fostering of home inter
ests. Let others be attracted by the adj
vantages given in trade and business, and
not repelled by high prices and extrava-
CANT demands.
We hail with pleasure the disposition
of some to conform to the new order of
things, and it is apparent to any one who
looks INTO the matter that those succeed
who have a readiness to accommodate
Others and who conduct their business
so that with quick sales they can thrive
on small profit, their motto being that
"a nimble penny is better than a slow
sixpence."
Much better, for instance would it lie
for the barber TO shave three persons 1t
ten cts. each than two at fifteen cts. each,
for the fact is that he would get four
persons at the former price to two at the
latter. And 80 with all trades and busi-
ness.
Certain it is that these matters are
worthy the consideration of all our bust
ness men and citizens generally.

In a recent letter to friend in Phil
adelphia, Mr. ingalls, says:
"When [ recall the course of the
Democratic party toward Mr.. Lincoln,
whom they habitually characterized as
baboon and clown, toward Grant
whom they styled butcher and drunk
ard, Hays whom they described as a
fraud and thief; and Garfield as pub
lie plunderer and Arthur as wine
bibber and glutton, it iSinterestlng to
inquire upon what theory Mr.. Cleve-
land is entitled to absolute immunity
from anything but praise and eulogy
adhere to my definition Of Mr.. Cleve-
land, and shall never hesitate to say
that when he was elected to the presl-
dency the public service reached low
water-mark, both morally and intellect
ally While we admire the manly
frankness of the man who like Mr.
Ingalls, has the courage of conviction,
we cannot help questioning the method
adopted and condemning the language
used. The fact that Mr.. Ingalls, stands
head and shoulders intellectual above
the average politician, does not give
him the privilege of using his fine in.
tellectual powers against his political
opponents in such way as to. belittle
their private as well as public charac,
ter, and while we are not Fast admirer:
Of Mr.. Cleveland or his politics, truth
and justice COMPEL us to admit that he
has many strong points of charctel
which ought to 60 Ear in covering GER
tain defects as seen by Mr.. Ingalls, and
perhaps others of his confreres.
Having had the example before him
which he says he has had in the past,
it would seem to be the part of wisdom
to have profted thereby. Mr.. Ingall;
can afford to be magnanimous and can
not afford to use language toward polit
ical opponents which may prove in the
not distant future boomerang TO des-
troy much that is to be admired and
approved of in one of our best and
most hanored statesmen.

THE METHODISTS WANT 1T.

The Globe Democrat has special
from Washington which says that Rep
resentative Peters has introduced a
bill, which is now before the house
committee on public lands, authorizing
the sale of 147 acres of the old Fort
Dodge military reservation to the Meth
odist College association of South
western Kansas. The tract in quest
ion lies four miles west of Dodge City
on the banks of the Arkansas river,
and contains the old buildings of the
military post. The association, desir-
ing the site for the erection of a college
building, asks the privilege of purchas-
ing the land, which is all that remains
of the old reservation, at the govern.
ment price Of sl.25 per acre. The
matter was referred to the interior de-
partment few days ago for recommen-
dation, and Monday morning Chairman
Holman of the public land committee,
received official communication concern
ing it from Commissioner Stockslager
and Secretary Villas.
Mr.. Stocks slayer approves the pro-
posed sale, stating that as the tract is no
longer needed for military purposes it
should be disposed of, particularly as
r. is all of the reservation remaining
nnsold. But Mr.. Villas is not so cheer
FIN, in his concent. He says the land
is worth at least s25 per acrd, and In
t;m.tes that it should not be sold at a
sacrifice to any person or corporation.
Besides, he argues, the government
has already given to Kansas its full
quota Of lands for educational purposes
and no reason exists Tor
making any exception in fa-

A DOUBLE MURDER.


OMAHA, Nov 4-On Friday last two
farmers, Hiram Rotter and VIM. Ashley,
living in Custer county. called on
neiehbor named Holstein to see him
about some furniture which had disap-
peared from the school house in that dis
trict. Ashley and Rotter were school
directors. They failed to return Friday
night and after waiting until Sunday
their neighbors became suspicious
and instituted search for them.
Yesterday afternoon they saw some
hogs eating at something in hay stack
in Holstein's field, and going there found
the dead bodies of the two directors.
Rottersface had been badly eaten by the
hogs Holstein cannot be found and it
is believed he took team which the
men had and left the country.
