"A gentleman whose name we did
not learn, and who lives in the north
part of the county or the south of Cove,
has made discovery that may be of i'm
portance to the entire state. This dis
covery is presented in very superior
quality of camel coal. This coal is
lighter in color and much lighter in
weight than ordinary coal and in burn
ing and heating far excels the best
Canon City production. The whole al
fair has, for personal reasons, been kept
very quiet, but we learn that shaft is
soon to be put down for the purpose of
testing the extent of the find: Every
indication points to the fact that west
ern Kansas will soon be able to supply
the whole state with a superior quality
of coal at greatly reduced prices.-DigA-
ton Herald.

To School Officers.

As have received several inquiries
in regard to the new school laws, wish
to say that I have a letter from State
Superintendent Gaines in which he says
that only two changes in the present
school law were made and that these
will be published in pamphlet form ;
and that the compiled laws will not be
ready for distribution before the last OF
June or later. AS the two changes made
do not affect school district business,
school boards may be governed by the
compiled laws of 1891, now in their
possession. A. S. PEACOCK,

There is perhaps no scenery in the
world that will surpass that of western
Kansas in the spring of the year. Our
broad prairies, extending in some direc-
tons as far as the eye can reach, cover.
ed with rich, green verdure, and richly
interspersed with bright flowers, make
a picture so grand and inspiring that all
other landscapes become exceedingly
commonplace. No, it is not monoto-
nous on account of its sameness. To the
right the prospect is relieved by field
of dark green wheat, and on the left is
fringe OF green of lighter hue, compile

DIR. NJ. ]. Davis is a prominent ply
stefan of Lewis, Cass county, Iowa, and
has been actively engaged in the prac-
tice of medicine at that place for thirty
five years. On the 26th of May, while
In Des Moines en- route to Chicago, he
was suddenly taken with an attack of
diarrhea. Having sold Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhpa Remedy
for the past seventeen years, and know
ing its reliability, he procured a % cent
bottle, two doses of which completely
cured him. The excitement and change
of water and diet incident to travelling
often produce a diarrhea. Every one
should procure bottle of this Remedy
before leaving home. For sale by Jones

The crop of candidates in the repub-
lican party of Trego county seems to be
unusually large for this season of the
year-owing perhaps to the exception
ally bright political prospects. For the
Office of treasurer, James Kelly, W. H.
Damn and T. R. Moore are in the hands
of their friends, and a possibility that
this list may be increased by the name
of G.. NJ. Bell, of Franklin township,
and five other townships to hear from.
For register of deeds, George w. Cross,
Captain Jones, George V. York and
Henry Robinson are the candidates that
have reported to date. For this, as for
the Office of treasurer, there are five
townships yet to hear from, and they
may all have their ''favorite sons" For
sheriff, o. L. Cook, A. P. Lawrence and
E. F. Bryant have been importuned by
their friends to become candidates, and
we understand that the friends of Cap
tain D. Foutz, of Collyer, are anxious to
have him nominated. We do not know
whether he would accept. For county
clerk the present incumbent, G. A.
Hoar, and G. w. Sweet will submit
their chances to the nominating conven-
ton. For county surveyor there have
been no announcements that we have
heard. There are not many qualified
surveyors in our county and there is
plenty of time. These announcements
are not official and they may not be
complete. Those who live at some dis
lance from the county seat like to be
kept posted and, with that object, sub
scribe for the WORLD. AS an item of
news only, we will supplement the
above list from time to time if necessary.

SATURDAY, MAY 20, 1893.
The people of Wa-Keeney and O

The people of Wa-Keeney and of
Trego county have always been very
generous to the WORLD and we have al
ways fully appreciated it. We believe
in reciprocity and have always endeav-
ored, to the full extent OF our ability, to
publish paper that would meet with
the approval and which would be an adj
,vertisement of the intelligence, enter
prise and public spirit of our commune
ty. How well we have succeeded must
be for our readers to determine. All
this is only preliminary to question
which we are almost toe modest to pro-
pound. Have you noticed that the
WORLD has bran new dress this week.
That it looks brighter and fresher than
ever before? Oh, you have noticed it I!
Yes, and we contemplate otherimprove-
ments in the near future. In brief we
expect to do our part and always keep
we'll up towards the front of the process
sion. We have passed through the hard
times with the rest of you, and were
compelled to wear our old clothes, but
now we see our way clear to have a new
dress and we feel as proud over it as the
maiden with her new Easter bonnet.
With sincere thanks for your kind pat
ronage, and hoping to merit continu-
ance of the same, we make a fresh start
in our efforts to contribute something to
the progress of our beloved western Kan
sas and the community in which we
have cast our lot.

State Superintendent Gaines has

State Superintendent Gaines has
given an opinion in reply to the inquiry
of school teacher of a western county
as to whether teachers can claim pay for
time lost in case school is closed on ac-
count of an epidemic, in which he says:
''The law is somewhat unsettled as to
whether you can be compelled to make
up the time lost during which the school
was closed by order of the board. am
of the opinion, however, that you can
not be compelled to make up the time
thus lost. Should the board desire you
to teach to make up the time thus lost,
you of course are at liberty to do so and
can collect wages for that much time.
If the school closes at the expiration Of
eight months, as stipulated in the con-
tract, l am of the opinion that you can
collect the full amount as agreed for the
eight months the same as though you
had taught the full time.-Capita.

-Trego county district court convene:

-Trego county district court convenes
next Monday. There are only twenty
seven cases on the docket which is per-
haps the lightest since the county was
organized. What few cases are set for
hearing are of minor importance-prin-
cipally e1parte foreclosures-and it is
doubtful if there will be a single jury
case. OF course this shows well for our
community and, we might add, that it
shows well for our attorneys also, for it
is a we'll known fact that attorneys, if so
inclined, can very largely control the
volume of litigation in a community.
We are in a position to know and only
speak the truth when we say that the
Trego county bar assists in eompromis-
ing many more cases than they ever try
