The Farmers Alliance is growing

Cattle are thriving wonderfully this
spring. Every thing is lovely in Kan

A great deal of work is being done at
the Walnut Mills elevator towards
getting it in shape to receive portion
of the wheat crop.
Corn is In nice condition; the stand
is good also the color, but it should re-
ceive more cultivation. Frequent
cultivation greatly augments corn
crop.
r. l.. Harry brought in fine sample
of oats last evening. 1t was grown
one and One-half miles northwest of
town and stood five feet high. He says
the crop is very thick on the ground,
and even.

REPUBLICAN journals call Cleve-

the next presidential campaign. The
organs speak truly. tits the keynote
the grandest keynote that can be
uttered. 1t demands the equalization
of burdens, the rights of all citizens,
low taxes and trade enlargement. Who
asks for better keynote? The demo-

ONE Squires, chief clerk for Pension
Commissioner Tanner, attempted to
ruin young lady clerk in the pension
Office. The fact became public, and
Squires was fired, so was the young
lady clerk. Afterwards Squires was
appointed to a fat Office in the north
west, as timber inspector. The injured
woman, however. will not be heard of
again. Thus does the present admin
istration move smoothly on.

From "Seward."
Harvest! Harvest is here, and every
one wants his grain cut first.
For amusementS on the fourth see
posters; there is to be dancing after
noon and evening.
Mr.. Morehead had quite big crop
of cherries this year, and the promise
of lots of other fruit.
Jas. and Pat Keenan, are both OH
the sick list. Better not make haste
but go slow boys, this hot weather in
the harvest field.
Corn is doing we'll, though the stand
is a little uneaven. 1t is good color,
clean, and growing fast, since the
weather got warmer.
The proceeds of the celebration on
the fourth. is to make start towards
buildinga church, as we have none here
yet, and the meetings are held in a
hall.
I haven't heard much preparation
about the Bend to celebrate the fourth;
it's most here, better come down to
Seward, as they are going to have a
big time they say.
The headers are running over time
and doing their best, and the ricks are
mounting up thick and fast. The grain
is IN excellent condition, bright and
clean, and promises the largest yield
ever harvested in the valley.

THE government crop report is a
complete surprise to Kansas City and
every other territory tributary to the
Missouri river. 1t says that the coutry
as a whole will not produce an average
crop. While we do not rejoice at the
eastern crop failures we feel pardon
able gladness in contemplating western
prosperity. Missouri shows percent
age of 80 in corn; 100 in oats. Nebras-
ka has 100 in corn and go in oats, and
glorious Kansas 102 in corn and 119 in
oats. The failures in the east mean
good price for this magnificent yield,

What Are We Coming TOP

This question flashes across our
minds after perusing some of our last
weeks exchanges. The Finney county
Democrat contained the intelligence
that Geo. Orner and III. p. Myton are
candidates for special agency, and
that one was backed by Peters and the
other by Plumb. The Sterling Bulletsn
caused q smile to creep across our woe
be-gone countenance by saying that
Chapman will be register of the Larned
land Office, and will be missed very
much in the senate. Then our good
old friend, Judge Lester, of the
Syracuse Journal, skaters our faith in

Sol. MILLER, of the Troy Chief, is a
republican who speaks right out in
meeting without the least hesitation.
He refers to the presidsnt as Grand
pas Hat" calls old goody goody
Wanamaker crank, and roasts the
administration numerically for its
nepotism and the appointment of the
''sOns of their fathers" to high offices.
Sol will be read out of the party one of
these days, but if he is present when
the reading is done there will be a
sulphuric smell around the premises
that will turn Satan green with envy.

Two week now. We mean those
that left last fall. are coming back at

Our lumber merchants are realizing
quite an increase in trade in the last

Farmers, don't rush your wheat into

more ways than one.

turned to Pawnee Rock ON Tuesday.
We can count up to Is of our old
citizens that left last fall for, we don't
know where, have returned in the last
week.
Nat Breed, one of Pawnee Rock
township boys, who went to Wash
ingtOn Territory last fall, returned on
Monday.
j. 81. Bement, living north of town
says he has apple trees so full of apples
that they will have to be propped to
keep the limbs from breaking.
j. NJ. VanAken of this city. handed
us sample of oats this morning that
measures feet and inches. He has
10 acres on his place adjoining town, of
which this is fair sample. He says
he will have 500 bushels off of 10 acres
at the least calculation.
Seeing is believing they say. Thurs
day evening while in the Bend, we
called at the Democrat Office, and while
there brother Stoke showed us a stalk
of grass, that grew just south of the
Bend, that was 20 feet in height, all of
this seasons growth. This is only a
little over again as high as our wheat
and oats are in Barton county this year.

DR.. j. w. Smith, of Iowa, advises
that one stove be required to be carried
in each passenger car in winter in the
cold regions, even when heated from
the engine; to provide warmth to the
inmates by the use of wood or coal in
such stove in case of the train being
stopped by snow drifts or other causes,
and miles from station or perhaps
from dwelling, in some of the new
regions of the north and west. Such
amount of coal or wood used in the
stove might prevent great suffering
and even loss of life-the engines
the source of warmth-being often dis
abled, and if not. the supply of fuel
would frequently be insufficient If used
that way. Only people who have been
caught in blizzard on a train, can
fully appreciate the subject

THAT is happy thought of President
