LAND OFFICE.

We have said but little about those in
tangible, uncertain things which we ex-
pect to have, for the reason that we have
in actual possession enough upon which
to base all our claims to consideration as
a prosperous, growing city. The remov-
al of the q. S. land office to this point
would be an important advantage to
Dodge City, and is a matter which has
at last been seriously considered by, the
Secretary of the Interior Department
The matter has gone so far that the gov
eminent has sent special agent here to
examine the situation. This has been
done, and his report has been made, and
is understood to be favorable to the re

U. S. SIGNAL SERVICE STA
TON.

Though man cannot make the winds and the
waves obey him, he has advanced his knowledge
of the natural laws, which COMPEL the winds and
control the rains, until he is able to forecast their
coming with remarkable degree of certainty;
and it is not assuming to much to say, that the
day is not far distant when this study will be
dHced to almost an exact science. We shall be
able to forecast the weather with reasonable GER
tainty, for weeks and possibly for months in adj
vance.
The signal service station at Dodge City, was
established Sept IT, 1874, and is one of the most
important staf ions in the service, being situated
midway between the storm centers of the noun
tain and Mississippi regions While not i'm
portant business enterprise, the Signal Ser
vice station at Dodge is very important and val
liable feature Of the city, and its practical value s
ton is under the charge Of Mr. j. E. Lanouette, an
experienced and reliable observer

OF all the grain growing states. both
old and young, the most remarkable is
Kansas. She springs to the front in her
average yield per acre of the cereal crops,
while her nutritious native pasturage af-
fords an inexhaustible supply of food for

fifty-twO millions of acres that is not
adapted to agricultural or pastural pur-
poses-New York Herald.

WATER WORKS.

The public enterprises of a community al
ways indication of the character of its business
men, and form one of the most reliable guides by
which We can measure the enterprise and pro-
gressive character of it from business stand
point. If these are in keeping with the needs of
the community liberal in their management and
generously patronized, it is safe to conclude that
it is index of the character of the business men
of the community. Dodge City is indicted to Mr..
A. T. Sonle for her splendid system of water
works. The matter was undertaken by the bust
ness men of the city, in the summer of 1886, and
in the June following passed into the hands of
Mr.. Soule, who completed and perfected that
which had already been well begun. A stock
company was formed under the name of the
Dodge City Water Supply Company, with W. W.
Munsell president; j. W. Gilbert, secretary and
treasurer, and F. A. Heineke superintendent
The works were completed June 4, 1887, and are
complete and well appointed in every respect
The well is situated about eighty rods from the
river, and furnishes an unlimited supply of the
purest water; free from all impurities, and with
out trace of alkali. The pump house is situated
at the well, and is supplied with two 6O-horse
power boilers The machinery consists of two
compound pumps, each of 10000 gallons daily
capacity, one low pressure pump run at one
hundred strokes per minute, used in supplying
water for daily use; the other high pressure
pump held in reserve, and calculated to be used
in case of serious confagratons. The stand-pipe
pressure is ninety-one pounds to the square inch
This pressure is sufficient for the use of the fire
department under ordinary circumstances, but
can be increased to three hundred pounds if nee
essary. The company has nine and One-half
miles Of mains, ranging in size from twelve to
fonr inches, with fifty street hydrants and sup
The water supply of: Dodge City is of the best
possible character, the supply unlimited, and it
is furnished at very moderate cost; an important
consideration to manufacturing enterprises.

PROHIBITION.

AThe temperance movement which has found its
best expression under the prohibition laws of
Kansas must be counted as one of the most promi-
nent reasons for the unprecedent growth of our
state. Those who doubt that prohibition prohibits
could very easily be convinced by coming to
Dodge City, and observing the effect of the law
here. Three years ago the saloons and dance
houses crowded each other for room on our prin-
cipal streets. To-day there is not one in town.
Our city has beed purged of this demoralzing
traffic only after bitter fight, but the law has tri
umphed, and all good citizens whether prohibi-
tionists or not, rejoice. No reasonable man can
doubt for moment that the state is better off and
more prosperous, rid of this fruitful of pau
perism, misery and crime. Prohibition has been
decided success in Kansas-the people are pleas
ed whit it, and it has come to stav

,lar, Is a great JOY and It will look after
The women and the babies. 1t believes
that HIfe deserves not only respect but
love, and the Ola South gives both. It
remembers that the greatest OF men all
had good mothers, and realizes that after
all the baby. in the milk 1t loves, draws
the Joy and life from its mother, Dolly, it
may be old fashioned, but it ought to be
an enduring fashion for the benefit Of all
who are inclined to what an old darkey
calls the lOveiiest OF acts Sometimes
the Prohibition party accuses the Old
Suulh of getting drunk well, that is more
or less true; but, my dear, Southern wives
would rather take care of drunken hus-
bands than unfaithful ones. That is the
key to the whole SituatiOn-it was during
the long years of the War-to keep faith
ful to good and evil, through suffering
and through want.
