EARLY EXPLORATIONS OF KANSAS

HENNEssEY, Ok, March 90, 1890.
N. NJ. Murdoch Esq:
Dear Sir-In your editorial on 4 Gold
Mine l notice that you state that DeBer-
I ergInont set out from Santa Fe with his
expedition to explore Canzas. In this
you do not give the correct starting
point. DeBerergmont was commissioned
at Paris. January Il. 1922. to establish a
fort on the Missouri river. He located
his fort near the mouth Of Grand river
and named it Fort Orleans. From this
fort he set out July /, 1924. accompanied
by twenty Frenchmen. one hundred and
eight MisSouris and sixty-eiEht Osages
to effect q treaty between the Missouris
Osages. Kansas. Otoes, Iowas and other
river tribes on one side and the Padu-
cabs or plains Indians on the other. The
object of this treaty was to ally the Pa
ducahs with the French and ALLEVIATE
them from the Spanish 50 that the
French would be enabled To more
easily repeI the threatened encr1achment
Of the Spanish who had been repulsed in
1919 by the OtoeS. Pawnees and other
Kansas tribes In their attempt "a reach
and DESTROY the French post ct ka-ka=kia.

change its mind, with particular reference
TO resubmissiOn, the EAGLE will be a very
good sort OF Republican after alL-Capi-

The EAGLE will not have to change it's
mind to be in accord with the National
Republican party whose platform utterly
ignores prohibition, as has several Re
publican states utterly repudiated it of
late, and We can understand why a Kan
sas Republican should differ with the
national party on this question. The

The feeling against Congressman Com
stock in the Fifth District seems to be
growing very strong. Hon. kittle Hal
version, a member of the lower branch of
the legislature of 1887, who has been
nominated on the farmers Alliance tick
ct, will draw heavily from the Scandina-
Wan Republican vote. At the meeting of
several Fifth district Democrates and one
or two Republicans at Merchants Hotel
Saturday, very strong movement was
begun in favor of nominating a young
LAWYER bv the name of Calhoun, of st.
Cloud, on the Democratic ticket. Mr..
Calhoun has never held office and would
go into the campaign with his hands
clean ofanv previous connection with the
POLITICAL machine. He is a bright law
yer with good prospect, and i'll entering

Frank Searle is in the field for re-elect-
ion to the house and will be candidate
for speaker-it he isn't he ought to be, for
he would make an excellent presiding
officer. He has every qualification for
successful and popular administration.
The following is from the St. Paul Globe
of recent date.
Frank Searle, who graced the seatin the
last house of representatives from Stearns
county, is candidate for reelection. He
is a banker with considerable means, and,
although he vigoursly fought the bill tor
a lower rate of interest on money, and
for the abolition and punishment for
usury practices, he combines many ele-
ments of popularity in his party. 1t is
said by his Republican constituents to be
beyond a question that he can get the
nomination. In the house he would
figure as an aggressive candidate for
speaker. on several occasions during
the last sessions, by the grace of Col.
Graves courtesy, he occupied the chair
pro tenn, and he has taken quite fancy
to it. Mr.. Searle believes the alliance
cannot cut much of figure in Stearns
county, and he is sanguine of his ability
to null through,

The Otter Tail county alliance propos-
es that the local newspapers shall sup
port it whether or not and the Fergus
Falls Journal doesn't seem to like that sort
of coaxing. Itsays: "The alliance don't
let newspaper men take part in it's pro-
ccedings. They, like the bankers, are
barred out. Then the alliance passes a
resolution that it won't support the
newspaper that won't support the tick
et-which is indirect bribary. When the
Republican, Democrat or Prohibition
party expects people to support it, they
invite them to join in their deliberations.
The alliance bars out people until the
pins are set up and then threatens to
boycott them if they don't sup
port it. All right"

The Board of County Commissioners
have appointed Barney Vosberg to fill
the vacancy declared by the Governor in
the Office of County Auditor OF Stearnes
County, the vote standing three for Mr..
Vossberg and two for E. P. Barnum.
While Mr.. Vossberg has every qualifi-
cation for the office, yet it was great
disappointment to the many friends Of
Mr.. Baruum who earnestly hoped he
would be the fortunate candidate. 1t
seems in this instance as in every other,
the claims of Western Stearns in matters
political are persIstently ignored. 1t is
quite probable an appeal will be taken to
the ballot box next November. Western
Stearns will then have an opportunity,
at least, to express her appreciation OF
one Of the most capable aud loyal citi-

A city is Judged by it's newspaper to a
greater degree than any one kind of en-
terprise it possesses. Every business
should be represented in the newspaper of
the place. The advertisements comprise
an exhaustive index to the trade and in
dustrial features of the city, and are so
regarded by visitors, strangers and any
one. Aside from this view, however, it
pays to advertise constantly. No one is
asleep these days, and no merchant has
such wonderful pull on the public that
his place will be spied if he does not adj
yertise his attraction.-Northfe News
