at high prices, something like 500 per
acre. are buying Iowa farms for less
money. Mr.. Sheldon was glad to get
back to his Kansas home. Though pros
perity is quite evident in Iowa. the cli-

He reports wheat and rye in splendid
shape out in the northern part of Ford

Last Saturday Sam Mellon, alias
"Pumpkin. drew his stipend as brake
man on the A. Il. & S. f. He Is of a
speculative, adventurous disposition, and
before liquidating little bills around
town decided TO win more wealth at the
great American game of draw poker.
He met with varying successes and re-
verses until his capital had been reduced
to fifty dollars, When he dropped into
Ben. Tunnels place and dropped the re-
mainder. On returning to the bosom of
his family he reported that he had been
dOped and robbed. a council of war
was held over the question of delinquent
grocery bills. ut the conclusion of which
Mr.. Mellon sought Ben Tunnel and made
application for the loan of twenty
dollars. This was declined with thanks.
Mrs. Mellon then took the matter in hand
and demanded the fifty dollars in full.
Mr.. Tunnel would not cough up. The
matter was then brought to the notice of
Mayor Fitzgerald, who took council
with Marshal Sughrue and instructed
that officer to get the money. MIR.
SughrHe found Mr.. Tunnel very firmly
resolved against liquidating, but referred
the marshal to Dad Smith. Smith said
Ben was the Boss of the card table.
Sughrue asked Mellon to make COM
plant against Tunnel. to which ''Pump-
kins'' at first demurred. Afterwards
hearing the riot act read to him he made
the necessary affidavit and the arrest
was made. Sughrue was about to begin
civil action for the recovery of the fifty
dollars when Messrs. Tunnel and Smith
paid twenty-five dollars and gave their
note for twenty-five more. The prose.
cution still ponds in the district court,
and will doubtless be tried at the May
term.

Gen. L. Sims returned last night from
Wichita. where he has been in attendance
upon the United States court as a juror.
Mr.. Sims says that farmers are coming in
there every day from Illinois and are buy
ing lands right and left. They pay twen-
ty dollars an acre for wild lands remote
from the city. One firm of four brothers
are doing a lively business in this line.
Two of them go to Illinois and bring out
parties desiring land, arranging to pay
their fare both ways in case they invest.
The landlord at a leading hotel estimates
that their profits average one Thousand
dollars per day. Some of those who
came to buy land met our fellow towns
man and. after learning something of this
region. decided to come here and invest.
They returned to Illinois to arrange for
a longer stay in Kansas and will be in
Ford county in few weeks.

terest of the money on the land he
grazed.
We get protection on wool, but, like
| the Republicans claim in other matters,
/ the fact brought the price down, but
| they don't boast Of this one fact. A few
years ago we could 20 to our factories

I don't manufacture the csssimeres and

while the farmer gets less for his wool
he pays more for goods not worth half
as much as the "home manufactured"

Mr.. editor, we remember back to

/ chance with the manufacturers, but
/ that was before the days OF
''fat" and "blocks OF five" and masses

/ other time say something more on this
subject. The outrageS heaped on this
