statements to limits within sight Of
the truth. They do not bother 70
explain that this farm product will
do better or worse than that. They
brush the truth completely aside by
asserting to the land seeker that no
farming can be done here. and that
the country is not fit to live in.
Within the past year, we have heard.
from sources whose correctness we
cannot doubt, of men who had de-
termined to locate in this county
being sent out Of it completely dis
gusted by the stories Of these ene-
mics Of the community. These NAL
contents, we we'll understand. are
not to be shamed out of their posi-
ton by an appeal to their reason.
Malcontents never are overstocked
with this commodity. If these fell
lows could see the polished facts, as
they stand out before progressive
citizens, they would feel the force Of
the assertion that they can not in
jure the country without injuring
themselves. The only way to deal
with them is to frown them down.
They must be given to understand
that it is as unpopular to libel our
fair county as it is to defame the
name Of good citizen. The aver
age land agent, with his fervid
Imagination bent upon a sale, can
not keep pace with these malcon-
tents. It is time, therefore. that all
good citizens come to the rescue Of
the land agent. If the county must
be misrepresented, let it be in the d.
rection Of its Development!

Mrs. McCaslin, wife Of Geo. McCas-

The Herald states that she had for some
months been great sufferer, and that she
was in a dying condition for thirty-six
hours. Mrs McCaslin died in her thirty
ninth year. She and her husband used
to live in this county. Later they ran a
hotel at Ness City. Few women have
seen more of life on the plains than Mrs.
McCaslin saw. She seemed equally at
home, whether travelling over the bleak
prairies in storm or sunshine, whether in
a dugout or palace.
