pOrtant offices-school director and road
Overseer, and he has capacity enough for
two more. If you meet him you will md
he is a gentleman and scholar. Then
there is our former trustee; the people
made grand mistake when they laid
him ON the shelf. He Is one of the best
big hearted men that we have among US,
and made splendid officer. He is no.
BILE christian, a class leader in the NJ f.

undertakes. and has thoroughly reorgan-

We have as fine a settlement Us there

Mr. Editor:
| If il is not asking too much will you,
for the benefit of some parties here that
are making arrangements to settle in
per, in regard to the improvements of
Dodge City and Ford county. Will you
please answer the following questions:
What is the population of Dodge City?
Have you a street railroad in operation?
Have you fonnd coal in paying quaint
ties: How many railroads have you
completed to the city, Are there any
others thai will be built in the near fu-
ture2 In short. will you give us de-
seription of the improvements and ad-
vantages Of your city and county,
Would say to my Indiana friends in
! Ford county. We have had very mild
winter On the 29th of this month the
mercury marked two degrees above zero,
which was eight degrees colder than the
coolest weather We have had here this
winter Ice men are feeling blue, and
every one is of the opinion the season is
two far advanced to secure an ice crop.
The wheat crop never looked better at
this time in winter. Roads are in bad
condition Railroads are doing light
business. and times is what might be
called dull Health is good. and people
! seem to be enjoying life after the same
old ''Hoosier" style. Democrats here
are rs gentle as Mary's little lamb, but
have tented IN the late political battle
field and are keeping their powder very
dry. feeling confident that the Dudley
Quay method of running elections will
not be tolerated in the future, and in
1892 the power will go back into the
hands of the Democracy. where it will
remain in all probability for quarter of
century; so mote it be.
X. c. HART.
To the above questions we will say:
FIRST. The population of Dodge City
is about 5000.
Second. Our street railway is not yet
in operation. but we have hopes of it 60
ing ahead this summer
Third We have found a splendid
vein If coal. and the same will no doubt
'lr out in condition TO mine during the
,;nc year.
Fourth We have three railroads now

Fin Ne have had splendid win
ter. with just enough cold weather to
give US full supply Of Ice, and every
thing points to big crops the coming
year.
To see a genuine boom you and your
friends in Indiana want to
come to Dodge this spring or summer.

EditOr:-Enclosed please find SO cents
to pay for your paper. find it q much
better and more interesting paper than I
had expected. Am glad that your city
and country around has such good pros
poets. l see your college is making q
grand start. How is it that the people
in this section of the country have an
idea that the people down there are des-
titute.-that the farmers have not raised
anything for several years. Seems to me
there ought to be something done to dis
ahnse the people of that notion.
