Gems From Tho Plains.

0Suso VbVUu bu0 Vs0ssos
Capt. w. Fl. Stricken has been invest
with the sobriquet of Julian del Llano. u
by one of Dodge City's favorite and fair
!. est of daughters. which literally, or in
western vernacular, is bill Of the
Plains" or Prairie Bill" He has gal
lantly accepted the same at the hands OF
the fair donor, to be used as non de
plume in his future writings. OF him il
can be truly said. he has never turned
! his back to foe, nor his face from a
friend. and his heart is always in the
right place."
A sense of bonor, gallantry and mag
unanimous feeling, are the attributeS of
Capt. Stricken. and he is certainly q
cultivated gentleman of the prairie. and
his pen is rapidly making him famous.
The following is self-explanatory in
relation to the production of book up
on which he is at present engaged. styled
Gems From The Prairies"
So soon may follow when friendships decay,
And from Loves shining circle The gems drop
array!
When true hearts lie withered and fond ones are
flown,
Oh who would live in this bleak world alone:
Believing that every human life is q
romance. thrilling drama, ever shifting
its checkered scenes from tragedy to
comedy, from grave to gay. from gentle
to severe. and deep in the heart are its
buried histories and treasures, too deep
for utterance, except by the few whose
impulse to expression. overlapping its
barriers bursts forth, as a song bourne
by the silvery notes of the running
brook. that all the world may listen and
take pleasure from its melody.
If the ensuing pages enlist a fair share
of interest and be the means of helping
show the world. that the SLOUGH hat, and
garb of the western are not necessarily
emblems of rOughness and brutality. but
often cover head and heart of nObleness,
honor, gentility. and intelligence. great
part of its mission will have been accom-
plished.
Given the honor of selection as an expon-
ent of this assertion, coupled with life
of years of unalioyed happiness, and Of
the brightest sunshine on the broad pra-
tries of south western Kansas. hence the
Gems from the Palms." as they appear
herein. No claim is laid to any classical
delination in their production they are
simply the responsive echoes Of a COM
munion with Nature, and they have all
originated and been written by the auth
or under the influence of, and in direct
contact with the spirit of Nature, as ex-
perienced on the plains.

Tie Election a Complete Tic
tory 7Hroneh0nf!!

Early on Tuesday morning the friend
ly strife commenced, and was waged
with determined purpose, until the
word went fourth that the battle was
over, and the enemy were ours. While
few may feel sad at the result, the
heavy vote cast with corresponding ma
lorities for the ticket headed by the
mayor elect. the Hon. Il. W. Evans,
caused our oldest and best citizens to
rejoice. knowing full we'll, that new
era had dawned upon our city, and for
the next two years at least, the affairs
of the city would be conducted in an
able, economical, and judicious manner.
There will be no more Jobs let at
fabulous rates, and other enterprises
inaugurated OF a questionable character,
and while it will be necessary to keep
pace with the times, and elevate the
standard of our city, methods will be
Instituted, aud while liberal, will be
strictly in accordance with law and
good government.
\ majOritity of the ladies displayed
their usual good judgment in casting
their ballots for the winning ticket;
that of itself is a prima facie fact, that
all is well and the followers of the
''Grand Old Leader have made no
mistake. The ladders and abettors"
of the mayor are not only practical bust
ness men, but rank among our most in
telligeat citizens. Ne bespeak for the
incoming administration hearty CO.
operation of her citizens. To those
whose ambition, has been slightly nip
ped, We coDdole with and urge them to
Join in the band, tina. there may be
harmony, and with one determined eff
fort place ourselves as city upon
plain that will be the pride of all our
people.

An EASTERN WOMAN SPEAKS.
She Sustains Miss Clements, the
PlUCkY Little Kansas Girl.

She 8ustalns Miss Clements, the
Plucky Little Kansas Girl.
In a recent issue of the Times noticed
an article taken from the Wichita News
Bacon relating to young lady of Wichi-
ia leaving an eastern school on account
Of certain reflections made by the princi-
pal on Kansas; its ignorance and destitu-
ton. Last year l attended the same
school at Auburndale, Mass. beautiful
suburb of Boston, with the young lady
in question, Miss Mabel j. Clements
She was quite dear friend and from my
knowledge of her beautiful Kansas home
l evince no wonder that she felt indig
nant at the insinuatiOns cast on her state
know the principal of the school well.
He has an erroneous impression that be-
yond the cultured east there is moth
ing but ignorance and godlessness, and
that prairie towns are composed mostly
Of mud huts. In this opinion he is not
alone. and like many others. judges from
hesr-ssy; whereas, know positively he
has never trasersed his part of the coun-
try except through the newspapers
With such ideas imbued in me l came
west few months ago expecting to find
q few small! cities, endless tracts of prai-
RE land and the Mississippi river. Judge
OF my surprise on entering Kansas City
to find small New York, with its ele-
giant residences, elevated railroads and
and the finest system of cable roads in
the country; and all through Kansas were
thriving business towns filled with live
business men; towns whose growth was
visible almost daily.
1t is an acknowledged fact that in ed
ucational advantages the east possesses
superiority over the west, and eastern
institutions are largely paironized by
western people; but the west is matur-
ing rapidly in this particular, and it is
safe to say the time is not far distant
when the sons and daughters of the west
will pursue their advanced studies near
er home. and where their patronage will
be better appreciated.
In staid old New England one stops
longer to consider the correctness and APP
pearance of a thing. and the reticence
characteristic of the eastern people arises
from an old feeling of personal pride and
precision, which has been handed down
from generation to generation.
Foreigners, as a rule. are more favor
able impressed with the customs of the
east and some peculiar mannerisms of
the west afford them food for ridicule.
However. although an easterner by ed
ucation and association, yet l firmly in
dorse Miss Clements action in standing
up for her state, and must say that in my
opinion there was by far more rudeness
and greater lack of good breeding e1-
hibited in the conduct of the principal of
the school to his western pupils than in
the disregard of conventionalities with
which eastern people so frequently dub
their western brothers and sisters.-Mrs.
