VETERANS REUNION.
The Event to Take Place at Wa
Keeney.
Committees at Work and Success
Guaranteed.

At the meeting of Captain Trego Post
last Saturday evening, Commander Olson
appointed the following committees to
carry on the work of preparing for the
grand reunion of old soldiers at Wa.
Kesney in next month:
On Finances. J. Osborn, chairman;
Joseph Escher and s. M. Hutzel.
On Arrangements-W. S. Tilton, chair
man; Joshua Croft, Ben jackson, G. NJ.
PAUL. and I. l.. McGarvie.
On supplies-J. Word Carson, chair
man; w. 8. Harrison, Thomas Caddick,
j. M. WEIGH and Daniel Countryman.
The titles of these committees will in
dictate the nature of their duties. With
the encouragement from our citizens, and
especially from our business men, which
they will be well repaid for lending to
this movement, these committees will be
enabled to perfect plans for the holding
of one OF the grandest reunions known to
Kansas. We are not yet apprised of the
exact date of the reunion, but it will
probably come off about the middle of
September.
Many cogent reasons conspire to make
q reunion of soldiers from over a large
district matter of deep interest. In
this case, the veterans of northwestern
Kansas are expected to assemble at this
place. They will enjoy it. Their fam
lilies, as many of them as can come, will
be happy. The people Of Wa-Keeney
will think more than ever of their town
for being the meeting place of such a
grand assemblage.
It is expected to have tented field,
sham battle, martial music and all the
accompaniment of military camp, not
excepting the camp fires, hard tack, pork
and beans.
The news of the progress of the prep
arations will be given in these columns
each week. Let all our people become
enthused.

No Niger Funeral or Dog Fight.
GLENCOE TOWNSHIP, Aug, 6.

To the Editor of the WESTERN KANSAS WORLD.
SIR:-I see the Glencoe Lyre, in your
issue of August 8, gave the school meeting
in district IL quite send off, comparing
it to niger funerals and dog fights. I
think the Lyre must have been asleep
when he was reporting the proceedings
of the meeting by stenograf4y, for if he
had been awake he could have got q
truthful report, in which he has failed
most ANONYMOUSLY to do. There was no
one mentioned the Union Pacific railroad,
except Mr.. Staplin, (the g. L. There
was no one took the floor except Mr..
Staplin, who was on his feet making
considerable noise, but not saying any
thing of any importance-just baking
the legitimate business of the meeting;
and not being ordered down by the chair
man, one of the ladies present mildly re-
quested him to take his seat, which he
did, and all present felt very much re-
ieved. When the Glencoe Tyre says that
anybody ordered Mr.. Staplin to shut his
mouth, with clenched fists, he simply
lies. We down here would like to know
whom the Glencoe Tyre refers to as Mrs.
and the old gent of snow-fence re-
nown, which both had the floor at the
same time, as there was no one who had
the floor, except Mr.. Staplin. I was
present at the meeting in district no. II
from beginning to end, and saw nothing
resembling niger funeral or dog fight.
The meeting passed off very quietly after
Mr.. S. took his seat, and, thought, to
the satisfaction of all; and am very much
surprised that any person should stoop
80 low as to send you such scandalous
report of the school meeting in the dis
trict he chooses to reside in. The Tyre
must have gone mad.
Truly yours,
Ct. w. CRoss.

Clear Creek Canon, Colorado.

The canon is marvellous cliff worn
through the solid rock by Clear creek,
dashing and roaring near the track,
which crosses it at short intervals. Its
sides, timeworn into thousand grotesque
forms, rise from 500 to 1,5O0 feet, making
the sky look like narrow strip. In
places there are interesting gullies,
through which rivulets come silvering
down, and the sunlight strikes across the
sombre canon. Trees grow thick in
places, and crown a portion of the heights.
At Beaver Brook there is pavilion for
dancing, and other accommodations for
picnicers.

The Voice of the Old Creamery
DipecfOrv

On the assumption that it is known all
through the county that the creamery has
changed hands, invite your attention to
few facts, by request of the board of di-
rectors. They are Of interest to all OF us
While it has been known by many that
butter was very low, and that we were
running behind this season, probably
very few have realized just how much we
had to contend with. It is not my pur-
pose to hold up these obstacles and mag
nifty them as an excuse or apology for
our losses, but rather that you may fully
understand the difficulties that surround
the business under its new management.
This is on the assumption that, though
We have sold out, and lost about all that
we expect to lose, we still have deep in
terest in the final success of the Treeo
County Creamery. Mr.. Verbeck, the
present owner, has not the losses to con-
tend with which always attend the start
ing of business of this kind-no wells
to dig or buildings to move; but the
price of butter is extremely low. It is
from 3 to cents per pound cheaper than
it ever has been before in the history of
our country. The long distance to be
travelled each day in gathering a very linn
tied amount of cream is costly. Once
gathering over our routes, with the re-
turn trip, amounts to a total of about $50
miles, or, in gathering twice, to 100 miles
more than the distance from the east to
the west line of our state. After travelling
$50 miles we secure only cream enough
to manufacture from $50 to $50 pounds
of butter. We can see that the miles are
out of all proportion to the pounds.
With the immense crops of all kinds
which Kansas is producing this year, it
seems reasonable to expect large immi-
grafton to western Kansas this next year.
A creamery in operation will be one in
ducement for settlers to come to Trego
county. More settlers mean more cream,
less expense in manufacturing. and con-
sequently better prices. The day for
manufacturing butter at home, and get
ting good prices, is past, with perhaps
few exceptions. A few moments spent in
examining the market reports sent out by
dealers will, if you note the difference be-
tween the prices of creamery and dairy
butter, convince you, if you are not al
ready convinced, that we can not afford
to neglect the creamery and let it go
down. We can afford to make butter
here if they can back East on their high
priced farms. By preparing good place
for our milk, and putting up ice, we can
increase the quantity, rs well as improve
the quality, and thus improve the price
and insure the running of the creamery.
Mr.. Verbeck intends to start another
route Immediately in the northeast part
of the county, and has the cans ready for
the patrons. Let US help on the work by
milking our COWS, and encouraging our
neighbors to do the same. Mr.. Verbeck
has several advantages over the old man.
agement, and the creamery should be
success from this time on.
Yours respectfully,
E. D. WHEELER.
