-A..W. Purinton, of Salina, formerly

the week. Mr.. Purinton purchased some
cattle from A. j. Shelton and some sheep

-Remember the republicans of Wa
Keeney township nominate officers to-
day Saturday at one o'clock p. n.
there is nothing secret about this and all
republicans are requested to turn out and
have say. Don't forget it.
The Kansas City Star says there is
not living stream OF water in Thomas
county nor tree of natural growth. We
cannot positively deny or affirm the
statement but We did not suppose there
was a county in kansas where both OF
the above conditions exist.
Our contest this time is not SO much
political one as it is question OF
principle The main issue in this
county, as in most other counties in the
state, is the material success of Kansas.
We therefore invite the assistance of all
irrespective Of party, to help us stand up
for Kansas.
There is absolutely no question
about the success of the straight party
in Trego county. The only question is
of majorities. Let every republican
stand firm and, with the assistance OF
those who are Disguised with the combi-
nation for Office only, we will roll up a
rousing majority.
W. B. CIPHER returned from Kansas
City last Saturday morning. MIR. CIPHER
shipped several car loads of cattle and
disposed of them at reasonably good fig
ures. On his return he visited our old
friend D. E. Spangler at Enterprise,
Kansas, and found him prospecting. Mr..
CIPHER and J. L. Parrish are preparing
to make another shipment soon.
"A very pleasant and interesting
time was had at the Shorthill school
house on Columbian Day. A beautiful
flag was raised and there were songs and
other exercises by the children. The
patrons of the school, generally, turned
out and a dinner at the school was one of
the features of the occasion. Mrs. A.
Milligan is the teacher and her energy
and zeal is entitled to commentator.
Geo. D. McCready and family have
returned from Iowa and will make Wa
Keeney their future home. Mr.. and Mrs.
McCready are well known here having
formely resided in Wa-Keeney. After
several years years absence they have ev-
identity concluded that western Kansas is
good enough for them. We welcome
them back.
"A letter from s. G. Peacock, formerly
county commissioner in this district, in
forms us that he is candidate for trus-
tee of his township in Reno county, of
course he is on the republican ticket.
His son "Dock" is attending Central Col
lege at Enterprise but will go home to
cast his first vote. Mr.. Peacock had Just
finished marketing large crop of broom
corn and speaks of other evidences of
prosperity. He has no use for calamity.
1t will only be a year or two until
the peoples party like the Greenback
party, labor reform party and half doz-
en- others of similar character, will be a
thing Of the past, and those who vote the
straight republican ticket in the year of
our Lord 1892 will always be proud to
refer to that fact. Right now is the time
to make up your mind to vote for
Kansas.
Geo. B. Sweet, OF Trego county, was
married Thursday October 9th 1892 to
Miss Effie Martin, of Denver. They ar
rived last Saturday morning and went
out to their homestead, on the Saline,
where they will reside in the future.
George is first class young man in every
regard and we are satisfied that he has
done the proper thing. We extend
congratulations and wish for them much
happiness.
Judge A. j. Harlan has been in the
habit, for many years, of making a
republican speech on the eve of the

custom this year delivering an address
upon the political situation at the Court
house in Wa-Keeney on November It'll at
: 80 o'clock p. m. The public generally
