WHERE is H0GANviLLE?

Amap of Kansas at the present time
would not show it, but new map of a
few months to come would show it.
We are ONLY sorry for one thing that it
is not in Trego county: but console our
selves in this, that it is or will be near
enough the line in Graham county that
Wa-Keeney will get much benefit from
it's development.
Let us see; forty or fifty families al
ready located on the north branch of the
Saline, with the new townsite on the
northeast quarter of 15-10-25 and with
more to follow, and you may rest assured
that the future of the country is solved
so far as agriculture is concerned. The
Russians are good farmers, and succeed
where others fail, so that with the soil
that is found in this part, there is little
doubt that few years will see our Sec
ton as prosperous and as valuable as the
lands which these people have already
developed.
J.B. Hogan is the fellow to bring them.
Heis more of Russian than appears at
first acquaintance. At all events he al

The Coxey movement is about the
rankest folly that has been set on foot
since the late Topeka unpleasantness, -
or Governor Waite's fool-hardy bluffs.
The idea of man starting to Washing
ton with lot of rip-rap fellows and de-
handing an expenditure of 500 millions
on public roads, when only twenty-five
out of body of 800 of those same fellows
would accept work when offered to them,
is simply the elimination of a desire for
notoriety. The worthy destitute among
men who are willing to work and able to
stand campaign from now until May
LIST, are very rare, except possibly in
manufacturing districts where demo-
cratic and populistic free trade threaten
ings have closed the factories. With
thousands of acres of tillable and cheap
lands still unoccupied in the states of
Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas, the
Coxey spectacle is nothing short of RI
diculous. 1t is idiocy, coupled with
shiftlessness. 1t will be composed of
the slums of creation, not one in fifty of
whom would do an honest days work if
he had the chance. Better spend your
time, Coxey, in teaching industry in the
field where labor would prove of some
productive utility rather than encourag-
ing pillage and vagrancy such as your
scheme promulgates.

for it with physicians and tried electric
belts, patent medicine and almost every
thing that is recommended for rheu-

me to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
was SO sure that it would help me that l
procured a bottle. 1t did help me,
right from the start; but it took five so
cent bottles to cure me, so you can
guess how bad was, as one or two
