dALATIA.
From "Ananias"
Harvesting is the order of the day.
S. Wilkinson gave the young people
a dance Friday evening.
Mr.. Butcher, recently from Odin, has
put in complete stock of hardware.
Miss Hattie Thompson who has been
attending school at the Wesleyan Uni
versity at Salina, returned home, Satur-
day.
Blood creek which has been practi-
cally dry for the past four years again
bears unmistskeable evidence of its
mighty presence.
Stella Hutton, Hattie Thompson and
Arthur Ross went to Russell, Wednes-
day, to witness the ball game between
Russell and Hoising-On.
The Galatia and Millard mines cross
ed bats on the Galatia ball ground, Sat-
urday. Both places are justly proud of
their respective teams.
Mr.. John Gorrel, formerly of Grant
township, but now of Oklahoma, Is Wis
iting his old home. MIR. Gorrel is we'll
pleased with the land of his adoption.
Monday evening the remains of the
g. o. p. in Fairview township met at
Galatia and organized a secret, free
trade saciety, under the guise of KING hts
of Reciprocity, with a membership of
seven.
The county bridge on Blood creek
north of Olmitz is in bad shape; about
one-third of the west wing has fallen
and should be repaired before the
county is called on to pay damages.
Mr.. William Titus returned to Gala.
tia, last week, from Horace, where he
has been engaged in business for some
time past. Mr.. Titus reports crops in
the county to the west as being in good
shape.
Monday evening Galatia wrs honored
and the town hall filed as never before
by most august body in grand con-
clave assembled. But why wonder?
The township had previously been care
fully ploughed and the faithful impor-
tuned to be on hand which they did to
the number of four business men and
three farmers.
What is the object and purpose of the
order known as kui .hts of Reciprocity ?
They propose to commune their strength
to compel the g. o. p. to bring about a
reciprocal trade with the Latin repub-
lies, something it is, at present. utterly
unable to do and which it would not do
when in power, but it is plot, repub-
lican, pestiverous, hyperbolical plot to
restore the party to power and perpet-
uate the slavery of the agricultural
| west.
Consistency is jewel not possessed
by many and especially by those who
quit the alliance because it arose in its
strength and delivered the state in its
lncipiency from the clutch of its OPP
pressors. Now those party blind, secret
society hOwlers under the leadership of
the immaculate Saint who presumes to
edit the puerile, Insignificant, postoffice
adjunct at Great Bend are forming
societies purely political; societies
whose great and only aim is to fan the
breath of life into party out of which
the breathing apparatus was extracted
on the fourth of November last.

HOISINGTON.

HOISINdTON.
From the Dispatch
1t is time the political aspirants were
announcing their names in the county
papers.
Nettie and May Jones left Thursday
morning for Sheridan, Mo-, to visit
relatives.
The weeds are becoming obnoxious
in some parts of town. They should
be cut down.
Merchants have been kept busy tho
past week filling large orders for gro
ceries to be used in harvest.
The harvest season has just begun
and will be a very busy one. The acre
age is 0ne-half more than has ever
been known in the county. Harvest
hands are scarce and command as high
wages as 81 per day.
On account of the busy harvest sea-
son it has been decided not to have any
celebration in Hoisington during the
forenoon of July 4th, but in the after
noon there will be a ball game, races,
ETC., and in the evening fine display
of fireworks.
The Sterling Bulletin tells of family
in Rice county that has eleven humid
red acres in wheat. Pretty good but
Barton county can beat it. We have
one farmer with over two thousand
acres and another with eighteen hund-
red acres.
The matter of employing a night
watch in the city is being agitated. It
is suggested that each property owner
pay a small amount in order to raise
the sum necessary to employ a man to
do the work. Our recent narrow escape
from fire should cause us to do some
thing of the kind in order to better
protect our city.

SILVER COINAGE LITERATURE.

The meeting of the American Bankers
Association at New Orleans has been pro-
life of silver literature. Two papers es-
pecially attract notice-that of Secretary
Foster on the silver act of July IA, 1890,
and that Of Mr.. William P st. John, of
the Mercantile National Bank of New
York, on the free coinage question. The
first gains Importance from the official
standing of the writer. The second is
noticeable for the radical and bold style
in which this exceptional New York
banker argues for free silver coinage.
Secretary Foster argues in favor of the
act, with a statement of its provisions and
the operations under ii. AS to the notes
or certificates under it, he says, first, that
they are ''redeemable in gold or silver
coin at the option of the Secretary of the
Treasury" But in a subsequent para
graph he speaks of exactly the same notes
as chased dollar for dollar on the cost
value of silver bullion, redeemable on de-
mand in gold coin and with the pledge of the
Government to maintain it at par" Here
are two statements which in a matter of
the utmost importance do not agree In
one breath the Secretary Of the Treasury
declares it is at his option to redeem the
notes in either silver or gold coin. We be-
lieve this is the best construction that can
be given to the law; but it may at some
future time make vast difference to the
holders of the notes if the Secretary of the
Treasury should take it into his head or be
forced by necessity to make his payments
in silver. But in another breath he asserts
that the notes are redeemable in gold, and
that the Government is under "pledge to
maintain it at par" How does this state
ment cohere with the first, and what au-
thority is there in the law for it? If it were
TRUE what would the issue of these notes be
bat putting out promises to pay in gold and
beaping up lot Of silver bars to make the
promise good? If the Secretary should
administer the affairs of the Treasury as
loosely as be makes statements concerning

A PROMISED FUEL.

Interesting news with regard to the use
of oil for fuel is contained in the statement
that process has been in successful oper-
alton for some months by which it can be
successfully used in factories and dwell
ing houses; that natural gas pipes can be
utilized for its consumption; that it is
equal to natural gas in freedom from
smoke and dust, and superior to it in
safety, and, finally, that its cost is one
half that of natural gas. If these claims
are substantiated in real practice it will be
a boon for both domestic and industrial
consumers in Pittsburg. The oil process
that can be safely, economically and sue
cessfully substituted for natural gas will
meet with an enthusiastic reception
But demonstration of these claims is
what is wanted That should include the
guarantee that can be given to consumers
against repetition of the experience with
natural gas, that after the people have in
vested their money in appliances they will
not find the rate Of charges for the fuel
multiplied at intervals by two or three.

THE CITY FARM BUSINESS.

Chief Elliot is understood to say that,
when he recommended the Alexander
tract to Councils for Poor Farm at $3.50
an acre, he was not aware that, but few
days before, the Court upon the testimony
OF the parties in interest appraised the
same tract at but 5000 an acre and ordered
q sale 10 private purchaser at the latter
price.
But the Chief is certainly aware of this
fact now. The records of the Court have
been published and are not disputed. We
should Judge about the best disposition to
make OF predicament which cannot be
agreeable is to withdraw as soon as possible
accommodation which, if adopted, would
subject the taxpayers to plain extortion
OF about IS per cent upon the sworn value
Should this course not be taken Councils
can only reject the recommendations
When they do, it is to be hoped they will
bring TO an end a business which so far re-
fleets anything but credit upon the city
officials They should order specifically
just what is needed, and no more, viz: the
purchase of farm not exceeding 100
acres at the usual price of Allegheny
county farming lands, that is to say from
500 TO 5000 per acre.
Public attention has now been aroused
to the extent Of complete assurance that no
eXtorionate prices will be allowed nor
any biz profit for a middleman out of the
taxpayers money.

SPEAKING of the fact that the census re-
port shows an increase Of lO0 per cent in the
output of iron ore, decrease in the cost Of
mining of 50per cent, and of the value of the
ore at the the mines of 95 per cent, with an
increase of 80 per cent in the wages
of the ore diggers, the Philadelphia
Record says that the increase of 80 per cent
in wages and the decrease of so cent in the
cost OF mining do not tally well. "Such a
result" says the Record, might possibly be
explained by the use OF improved machin-
cry or by the opening up OF mines more
cheaply workable; but the Porter census is
SO thoroughly .discredited that no part of it
can be accepted without q questioning hesi-
tation." 1t is pretty well known to be the
fact that the recently opened mines have
such heavy veins that large increase in the
output is possible at the same or greater
wages. But as the decrease of 95 per cent in
the value of ore at the mines means that the
ore is now worth just one-twentieth of what
it was in 1879, it is plain that either the typo-
graphical arithmetical error has been
getting in its deadly work.

AN INDUSTRIAL LEADER.

1t is unusual for a man to be honored
with monument in his lifetime, and the
case is still more exceptional when the
honor is paid to an employer by his en-
ployes. Nevertheless the monument to
Captain J. B. Ford, unveiled at Ford City
yesterday, has peculiar appropriateness.
If he who causes two blades of grass to
grow where one grew before is public
benefactor, how much greater is the claim
to public gratitude of the man who has
founded two great industrial establish
ments, and caused an industry to expand
from small. proportions to a mammoth
volume. The plate glass works at Ford
City, Creighton and Tarentum are monu-
ments to Captain Ford's enterprise; but
the personal recognition of his work in
building up those communities is most
fifty rendered in the statue which the
people of the first place unveiled yester-
day. 1t is a satisfactory evidence of good
feeling between employers and employed
that this testimonial comes from Captain
Ford's employees as a spontaneous offer
ing of their esteem and appreciation of his
successful efforts in building up a great
industry.
