TIE Tom Cat wants to see q fair held

TIE Tom Cat wants to see fair held
in Thomas county the coming fall. It is
right in the remark that nothing speaks
better for county than good fair. The
ability of Trego county to hold splen-
did fair will not be questioned by anybody
who looked at the one in the fall of 1887.
The World suggests that early prepare
lions be made for the holding of another
the coming fall. BY our business men
being q little liberal, fair can be had
which will be feast of JOY to excursion
lists and big card in advertising the in
dustrial possibilities of this county.

on, and in tones whose beauty
was marred only by the trembling OF
his frame and the chattering Of his
teeth, this melodious and timely
song:
"Say, you fellow, come this way; I am
an ass, and want to bray. I am in hole
forty feet wide, a hundred deep; o! how
I lied. 1t was first that, then it was
this--Allen, then Legate; O! land OF bliss
I thought could lie; the judge said go,
and not be found out-be thought pure
as snow. My statements to prove-oi
this I didn't think; the judge here fooled
me with stink. dreamt
the accused, with the stain Of my stencil,
all battered and bruised-blacker'n a
darkey wench. He, methought, was
compelled to prove, in the absence OF my
love, that I was an angelic himself a
soiled dove. Since then I have learned,
by experience rare, the truth in the case
no shield for fool liare. When next
I attack and SANDER man, I'll have my
proof ready from Beershseba to Dan.
The plaintiff must convict; this I will
remember; I'll hear the judge again
twill be after December. Now, here's to
your health while I take to the brush; l
belong in the jungle, with the bulrush and
hush. Here's parting word, as through
the brush I scoot-Im circulation liar,
and bungler to boot. Tilton proved
amply this when the subject was up; I
then surrendered like docile little pup.
He scored a victory-this more than once;
while I, all broken up, posed as ID of
q Ounce"

THE FORESTRY STATION.

The state forestry station presents a
fine appearance this spring, and is greatly
admired by the many passengers travelling
on the q. P. road Sharon Springs
Times.
The forestry station is a great
institution, indeed. Land men from
the eastern part of the state are see
ing that capitalists from the East
visit it. The motive is to teach by
a grand object lesson that timber
can be grown in western Kansas.
In other words, intelligent people
will have nothing to do with re-
gion unless timber can be grown in
It.
