Uisd.r the above heading General
L4fayette- Deardor.i Sims attempts onee
mere in his newspaper to tell who lie Is
This is the way he tells who he Is;
s.Mr. Sims is net a banker; Mr.. Sims
would net nave deputy, but would do
all the work himself: "Mr. Sims is a
prudent man" :.Mr. Sims has 10 chan
mel through Which, to make money;
Mr.. Sims would pay dollar for dollar on
county scrip There is the way he
tells ..who that man is Mr.. Sims is no
banker. we are sorry for him, but then
a poor business man never Will be u
banker. Mr.. Sims would have no dep
uty-what gall for Mr.. Sims to tell the
people that he can keep the books and
do the business of the treasurer office.
Mr.. SINS says he is prudent man
The way he has conducted his own bus
mess affairs during the past eight years
is sufficient for the people to know that
he is not prudent. Mr.. Sims says he
has no channel through which to make
money.-A business man dom say
that.
Let us see, re believe it was back in
Indiana, Morgan county. where Mr.
Sims started out with good sized for
tune to attempt to increase the same,
but his 'business qualifications soon
left him short, and yet he had a chan
eel through which to make money. Mr..
Sims moved with his sons to Meade
county and located on farm. Mr..
Sims then moved to Dodge and rented
house, but he does not own foot of
land in Ford county. All this compells
us to ask who is this man, that we
should put all the funds of the county
in his hands?
The absurdity of electing General
Deardorff SIMS to be the
treasurer of Ford county, causes the
voters to smile. Let Mr. Sims send
back to Indiana for endorsements and
after they are published in his paper,
he will begin to arrive at the much talk
ed of question as to '.who is that man.

The points made against the Senator

country. His bitter partisanship is un,
statesmanlikc. He is narrow minded.
He has remained at a standstill, allowing
his state 10 outgrow him.
Altogether, this is very tame way of
putting ii. Ingalls, is dominated by his
malignant passions. His voice is always
for war. His mission is to keep the north

have had enough of him. and they will
not rest until they send him back 10 pr

Some of the eastern mortgage com.
panies having brought suit against the
{. X. q \. Railway company, asking
for the foreclosure of mortgage held
by them upon the c. X. & n. and ask
ing that all stock holders be barred of
and from any right or interest in the
road; and this county owning 800, 600
in the stock of the A. X. 4 c. road,
which is controlled if not owned, by the
c. X. & ". the commissioners sent
attorney Madison to Meade Center to
consult the county attorney at that
place. Ford county is but little inter-
ested in the c. X. & n, except as it
affects the 4. X. & c. But as our
neighbor, Mead county, is greatly inter
ested therein, and in SO much as the
county's interest in the A. X. & G.
may bejeopordized. so are we. Hence
the commissioners thought it time to
awake to our interests. Mr.. Madison
and Commissioner karch will go to To-
peka this Afternoon to sift the matter to
the bottom.

The Republican in its last issue
makes mention of the fact that, as yet,
they had said s'very little about their
candidates" and further on says it is
their desire to do no mud Singing"

voters of Ford county think that the
Republican has said all it could when
the candidates received their write

Deardoff knows that when there is no

SUGAR MAKING INKANsAs.

The sugs: industry of Kansas will
be pretty thoroughly demonstrated this
year. Meade. Arkalon, Liberal and
Ness City, ir the western portion of
the state, and at Attica, Medicine
Lodge, Conway Springs and Douglas,
in the central part of the state. The
eight mills above mentioned are built
on the diffusion plan, and cost from
s75, 900 to $l25,G00 each. There is
also being built at Miuneola, Clark
county, sugar factory under the roast
ing process at cost OF so. 900. These
mills have a capacity Of from 100 to 800
tons of cane per day They are all
equipped with the finest and best ma
chinery that is manufactured Tor the
business, and managed by skilled work
men. The people of Kansas are watch
ing this industry with good deal of
anxiety and hoping that it will prove to
be grand success. And there is not
much doubt that it will prove to be the
biggest thing for Kansas that has ever
been developed within its borders, and
it will give Kansas new life and a
solid boom, something far beyond it
has ever experienced, and bring her to
the front of all other states in the Union
The most skeptic are becoming convin-
ced that this enterprise is bringing Kan
sas to the front, and that the future of
western Kansas is assured What does
this mean for the counties in which
these factories are located? 1t means
that as soon as they get to running prop
erty will more than double in value and
bring general prosperity to everybody.
Now is the time sor farmers who are
renters in the east to come west and
buy farm for themselves where one
good crop will pay for it and have
money left. Come while homes are
cheap, and get yourself and family a
home to keep you in old age.-Fowler
