Export of Kansas Grain.
WARREN BAKER

w. A. White, of Galveston, is in the
city in the interest of the Galveston EX-
port Commission Company, a new firm
of practically unlimited means Mr..
White says that with the very much i'm
proved condition of their harbor. which
now admits of heavy loading of ocean
steamers. and the unsurpassed handling
facilities of the finest elevator west of
Chicago. recently built by the Calves
ton Wharf Company, and reasonable
railroad freight rates. there is no reas on
why Galveston will not in the future
handle all the surplus grain in the great
state of Kansas. which is now princi-
pally in the western part. In fact. for
the past month there has been but little
grain from this part of the state but
what has been shipped to Galveston.

Last weeks Kinsley Mercury sounded
cry of alarm to stir up the people OF
Kinsley to make them realize that if they
did not look after this matter the road
would take its natural course continuing
the line on due west course to Dodge
City.
The Mercury's fears are no: altogether
unfounded, as the people of those two
townships would be more generally sat
isfied to have the road continue on its
present course, and there is tine densely
populated valley of Wheatland directly
on the route between Iuka and Dodge
City. Iuka, by the way, is situated on
the township line which passes one mile
south of the river, and if the company
has equal encouragement to come this
way it would never defect from its nat
oral course 10 take in Kinsley.

The proper thing for Ford county peo-
pie to do now is 10 confer with these
committees and operate together in this
matter. We are inclined to believe con-
siderable railroad construction will be
done throughout western Kansas i'm 1893,
and our people ought TO bestir them
selves.
The present terminus of the Missouri
Pacific at Iuka, Pratt Co.. is just sixty
nine miles east of the Dodge City stock
yards watering grounds owned by the
city The people of South Edwards
county must have had encouragement
from the railroad company or they would
not be holding township meetings on the
subject. Wheatland township is a
field for securing freight bust
ness, and it would not be wild goose
chase for Dodge City to make a pull for
this system.

Broom Corn.

This crop promises to be the most re-
muneratiye to our farmers of any prod
uct of our soil Should the season open
favorable from 5000 to 1000 acres will
be put out TO broom corn in our
country next year. Our climate is pecu-
liarly suited to curing the straw and our
soil is well adapted TO the raising of the
corn. Sod OF the first blowing is best
and in this case the crop needs no cult
walton whatever. The crop of last year
brought thousands of dollars into our
country and considerable of the crop has
noisas yet been marketed. Non residents
are taking an interest lii this crop and a
thousand acres will be planted by non
residents next year, Make your arrange
ments 10 put out a part of your crop TO

2SligrantS and Fine HorseS.

Our popular eX-candiJate for Secreta-
~ of State. ". Z. Edwards. was in the
city the first of the week inspecting
Ford county land on behalf of Illinois
farmers who contemplate investing in
some of our wheat producing soil. Mr..
Edwards has been doing some good
work for both Illinois farmers and South
west Kansas by making them better ac-
quainted with each other. He has made
a number of visits to the former state in
the psf few weeks and reports that at
least twenty families have arranged to
come out in time to make a crop next
season. Most of them have purchased
Pawnee county lands. though some deals
were for Ford county farms. and several
Others have requested him to find them
places in either Pawnee. Ford. Edwards
or Hodgeman counties. In making
sales of land Mr.. Edwards encountered
a number of thrifty farmers with fine
imported horses not required for service
in the neighborhood. and took in quite
a humber of such animals in his deals.
These have been shipped to his stables
IN Larned. and will give an impetus to
the tendency prevailing among the peo-
pie of Southwest Kansas to improve
their equine stock. With the natural
advantages of this region for developing
horses, aided by such work as this, we
will soon hare an abundance of the best
hOrseflesh in America.

Keeping the Vineyard.

Friends, the Lord of the vineyard will
after awhile appear at the gate. The
day of vintage will come. When the
grapes in olden times were gathered
there was sporting through all the land
and the sound of musical instruments.
What kind of clusters shall we be able
to show at last in our vineyard? viii
they be stunted and sour or ripe and
larger If faithful in the planting, and
the trimming, and the watching the vim
tage will be glorious. Let the messen-
gers of God put the full clusters into the
wine press and then, with all the ban
queters of heaven, the instruments
chorded to the right pitch, we will drink
new wine in our Fathers kingdom. God
forbid that ours should be the lamenta-

Signs Of Sin.

When look for the signs of Gin, see
it in the spirit of contempt, in the spirit
Of inhumanity, the spirit that does not
recognize the bond of common brother
hood or the existence of common
nature, the spirit that divides mankind
into cliquos and classes, the spirit that
perverts motives, misinterprets actions,
puts false constructions upon character,
delights in gossip, the spirit of unkind-
ness and injustice, sometimes of bitter
ness, sometimes of malignity, the spirit
that loves to paint the world worse than
it is. men as degraded, women as vile,
and chooses TO believe that devil is at
the bottom of all goodness--that spirit
is the one stubborn sign of sin.--O. b.

Jesus says, Eye are my friends ii ye

and what friend we have in Jesus
loving, constant, powerful. In our
worries, our troubles, our sins, if we re-

his help, his forgiveness; but it is not
when we are sad only that we want

with us when we are sad, bat rejoices in
our happiness.

All our happiness will share;

Slang in the Pulpit.

Tne wlJJiclsms and jocularities in
dulged in by doctors of divinity and
grave elders and pastors year or two
ago in the debate in the New York pres.
bytery concerning the revision of the
creed called forth at the time good
deal of criticism. 1t was argued that if
men are ever serious it should be when
they are dealing with questions and be-
liefs which involve life and death and
the eternal destiny of the soul. If creeds
have come to be thing to make a joke
of, it seems but mere form, farce iu-
deed, to receive or reject them. But
even more should we be serious when
we are laboring to lead souls to Christ.
Even more inappropriate are levity and
circumstances in the pulpit, the use of
coarse slang, and the rehearsal of Jokes
bordering on the unclean by those who
are commissioned to "stand between the
living and the dead" There is a differ
ence between such coarse and sensational
popularity or abuse and genuine humor
or the flashes of real wit. There are
pathos and power in the humor of Spur
geon or Wesley, and in the wit of some
great preachers there is fire that makes
their words electric. Very different are
slang and levity and coarse sensational
ism.-Cumberland Presbyterian.
