Very much like summer.

From Remington.
Very much like summer.
Mrs. Thomas Harper is reported on
the sick list.
The farmers are beginning their
spring work.
John D. Mitchell is now smoking
cigars manufactured in Boston.
There will be a spelling bee given at
Dist. II, next Thursday evening.
George WOODBURY., student of the
C. n. c., spent Sunday with his parents
near Heller.
Quite number of people in this
vicinity are attending the revival meet
ings now in progress at Albert.
The entertainment given at Dist. II,
last Saturday evening, was grand
success. The program consisted of
songs, Rotations, dialogues, etc.
The long looked for and much talked
of water in Walnut creek has at last
made it's appearance. This gives much
| relief to farmers who depend upon it
as water supply.
We must admit, ''Spunk," that mod
est little Albert is daisy. But yet
you can't compare with modest little
Heller. She is getting to the front and
don't you forget it.
Cal Ridenour. who moved to Illinois
last fall, is, we are glad to state, on bis
way back TO sunny Kansas. He will be
received here with. a warm welcome
Cal is a good citizen, and is held il
high esteem by all who know him. Blu
| he should learn this maxim: ''Once 8
Kansan and always Kansan."
The large boiler and engine. an(
other repairs for the creamery, las ar
rived, and steps will be taken immedi
ately to place them in their proper pc
sltions, preparatory to making butte
and cheese on large scale. A de
fectiye boiler and an increase in thu
amount of milk received induced then
to make the purchase. A mechanic
from Kansas City is expected to set vi
the machinery and put everything il
running order. Our creamery ha
been success in the past, and is bount
to be in the future. Let everybod
give it their support.

The Reform Editors,

Having business in Hutchinson this
week we made it convenient to be there
on the Oath, and to look in upon the
meeting of the reform editors of the
state. Our old townSman. j. u. Vie
ner, was master of ceremonies and had
the honor of calling the meeting to
order, and we must Say he surprised
and pleased us greatly in the eloquence
of his address to the few struggling
journalists present.
Hutchinson's mayor. Hon. E. A.
Severance, delivered an eloquent adj
dress OF welcome, paying Il hue tribute
to the Kansas press and newspapers in
general. He said he was republican,
but he never believed that the business
interests of the country should be sac
rifced to the interests of his party. E..
B. Keis, of Wichita. responded to the
address of welcome. He was rather in
| clined to picture the situation III a
gloomy manner, among other things
stating that the mortgage Indebtedness
of Sedgwick county, as ascertained by
alliance committee who examined the
records. was twenty millions of dollars,
and thought that other counties in the
state We're as bad off. He thought that
if Hutchinson salt would not save
Ralph Easley, the peoples mo, ement
would, and intimating that Ralph was
already on the anxious seat and about
ready to cone up and receive forgive
ness.
| In the afternoon the organization was
completed by the election of officers,
adopting constitution and by laws, etc.
TWenty-six of the reform editors signed
| the constitution and composed the as

which. by-the.way. is not near as large

during Senator PETERS address. He
