PARTIALLY UNITED.

Couriers from the camp Of the

that a meeting was held last Sunday
night, at which DR.. Jones received
q nearly unanimous endorsement as

A Grand Lecture.

That Of Rev. ]. T. Allen at the NJ. E.
church, January Is, on the Camp, Court
and Tabernacle OF the Hebrews. On a
platform of abost IA feet square he had a
model Of all this, in miniature form, made
almost as perfect as could be from the
description given by Moses. He handled
the subject in mastery manner. The
tabernacle. with all its furniture and ap-
pointments, became Illuminated, and the
use Of each part made so plain that Gods
great plan of redemption seemed moro
wonderful and glorious.
To do it justice one must see and hear
for himself.
It is to be hoped that more of our
Sabbath school children and people will
be permitted to hear the lecturer again
in the near future. ~

WORN OUT.

S. L. Wilson, who has imagined
himself an applicant for the forestry
commissionership, is virtually fiat
tened out. A perusal Of the COM
munication Of Attorney T. D. Ham

hardly fail to convince you Of this
fact.
And Mr.. Hamilton will have in

very strong dose for Wilson. Will

IMPROPER.

We understand that petitions are
out for the appointment Of c. c.
Yetter as forestry commissioner.
This seems to settle question
which was mooted last summer.
As lifelong Republican, as a
competent commissioner of forestry
and as an old soldier, Mr.. Robb,
ought to be appointed for at least
another term. The good Of the
public service requires that this be
done. It is wearisome to note the
distance to. which the contest for
factional success is carrying the Re
publican party Of Trego county from
its proper moorings.

A MOVE is on foot in the legislature for
the creation of the thirty-second Judicial
district. It is to be composed OF the
counties of Rush, Ness, Lane, Scott,
Wichita and Greeley. The Ness county
bar have petitioned for this action. In
the case of the passage of this act, our
judicial district will be cut down to the
counties of Ellis, Trego, Cove, Logan
and Wallace. This points quite clearly
to an Ellis county man for judge in 1880.
In saying this, we are making allowance
for some accidents.

would oppose the appointment to

which to save western Kansas. The Wa

self and the extravagant Shah came

he was the most abused person in

back the papers areindulging in more
sense and nonsense. The Springfield
Republican advises him to read Gen
Buffers scrap book, observe his but
ton-hole bouquet and learn wisdom.

coming back again and pleasantly
refers to him as follows:
"A man with a name which makes
a beautiful counting line for hide and
