Horticultural Society

On Saturday, February 10, meet
ing was held at the Fravel building to
take steps toward forming a county
horticultural society.
The meeting was organized by the
election of Sam. Andrews chairman
and F. D. Smith secretary.
After an informal discussion it was
decided to adjourn to February "a at
2 o'clock, at Keener's Hall, for the
purpose of completing an organiza-
ticn. The discussion developed a
general desire for the formation of a
society, and it is hoped that the at
tendance at the next meeting will be
general. At that time fuller informa-
tion will be had as to details of or
ganization, and the proper way to
proceed.
The objects to be obtained by such
an organization are manifest. We
have now in this county a number of
experienced orchardists who have
made success of the business. Fine
fruit raised in this county is NO longer
a novelty. Nearly every freeholder
in thiscounty is setting out fruit trees.
What to set, where to. get them, how
to grow and care for them, are big
questions. If man sets put six trees
he wants good ones, and wants to
knew how to make them live and bear.
The experience of others right here
in this county will be invaluable and
can only be obtained by association.
In addition to that, by having county
organization we get the Invaluable
publications and reports of the state
society as fast as issued, and are
thereby placed iu touch with all the
best fruit-growers of Kansas, and get
without charge the benefit of their
knowledge and costly experience. 1t
is hoped to meet at least once month
during most of the year.2and inter-
change ideas and experiences. Every
individual in the county who is inter-
ested in fruit is invited to attend. 1t
is expected that there will be no ex-
psnse, and the benefit and savsng to
our fruit-growers will be very great.
The following gentlemen were pres
ent and signed the call for the next
meeting: Joqn Domain, J. G. Mar
shall, John E. Wire, K. Schwartz,
David Frolick. Samuel Andrews, The
odore Force, c. w. Jenkins, I, B.

Anarchist Taylor. ofKentucky, who
has been governor for short time by
virtue of bayonets and in 'defiance OF
law, has finally deciden Ito let the law
take it's course. This means that his
brief strut in the public eye has come
to an ignominious end. The funny
part of the whole show is, that while
his every act has been in defiance of
the laws of his state, not a republican
paper in this ,brod land has called
him an anarchist, while such gallant
eXonents of the strenuous life" as
Teddy Roosevelt have been shouting
at HIM through the columns of the
corporation press, to stand by his
guns. If a populist or democrat had
done one half of the lawless things
that Taylor has, the war in Africa
and the unpleasan in the Philip
pines would have been crowded entire
ly out of print to make room for full
reports of the doings of the anarca-
lists. The corporations own Tayto
aud are the true anarchists.

How We .Pounded" the Pastor.

How We sPOunded" the Pastor.
And it came to pass the ladies of the
church concluded we should pound
the pastor. accordingly. Monday
evening last was decided to be suita-
BILE for the occasion. Now the gentle
men of the church informed the ladies
they intended to protect the pastor
and, ever equal to the emergency, .the
ladies prepared quantity OF refresh
ments, which OF course silenced all
objections of the gentlemen.
Mouday evening came, beautiful
pleasant evening, and from all over
he city might be seen in groups,
couples and slngly, many vending
their way to the parsonage, all bent
on having good time and bearing
with them a token OF regard to the
minister and family.
The pounding was intended to be a
surprise but as Rev. Cummings had
intended to leave on the evening train
tor district conference, some little had
to be told; however, Brother Cum
mings and wife were just as surprised
as could be and Mrs Cummings ex-
ceedingly SO.
After some little time spent in games
Calvin Priest and Clarence Leshure
captured the pastor and before he had
recovered from his surprise, Calvin
with few short remarks, in the name
of the young converts, presented him
with purse of $40. Brother Cum
mings responded 10 his delightful
way, thanking them for the gift and
again welcoming all to the parsonage.
In short time the ladies said re-
freshments We're nearly ready SO Bro
ther Cummings called attention and
in few words explained novel and
original plan of serving them. The
plan was this; The states were taken
in sets. one sfase in each set. Each
one present, who1so desired, was Civ
en- slip of paper ON which was one
letter OF the State and the number of
the set. After receiving their letter
and number they We're to get together,
and write piece OF poetry on Spring.

poetry being served first. Fifteen
minutes We're given. Time being
called, Judges were chosen, and poet
ry read. This made very nice liter
ary program. They were all good
and exceedingly original. Kansas
carried off first honors, Kentucky a
close second, then on down.
After refreshments were served, as
some had to leave, we joined in sing
ing "Blest be the Tie that Binds" and
Brother Cummings led in prayer. The
rest of the evening was spent in a
genuine. good time. L. was late hour
when the company departed to their
several homes. Everone present en-
joyed themselves to the utmost and
we predict 1.-The pounding of the past
Or" will be an event long to be re-
membered by those present.
We forgot to say that Brothr Cum
mings bore the pounding exceedingly
we'll and as it was administered Gin a
very substantial manner, We congrat-
ulate him ON his courage.

The republicans have been getting n
little gay lately over the fact that two
laws passed by the populists have
been declared unconstitutional-thc
law taxing judgments and that COM
pelling railroads to issue return trans
portation to shippers of single cars of
stock. They point with pride to the
fact that those laws were passed by
the populists. the inference being that
all laws passed by the republicans
are able to stand the test of the courts
We are all aware that the republicans
seldom pass a law that is declared
unconstitutional and the reason is not
far to seek. 1t has been said, with
some show of reason, that the laws
which the corporations object to are
UNCONSTITUTIONAL, and those they do
not object to are all right, and AS the
republicans take good care not to
hurt corporations. of course their
laws are not annulled by the courts.
We do not pretend to say that the su-
preme court is in error in saying that
these laws should not have been
passed. What we do object to, how
ever, is the republican Joy over knock
ing out of laws that had for their aim
the tightening of the loads on the
backs of the poor fellows who are un-
der the load.

Revival services at the Methodist
church closed the sixth of this month.
These services commenced the last
night of the old year and continued
five weeks and three days. During
the first three weeks the pastor-in-
charge, Rev. Cummings. was assisted
by Rev. W. II. Lee. an evangelist.
Up to the time Rev. Lee left there had
been thirty-one converted or re-
claimed. Since that time Rev. Cum
mlngs conducted the meetings alone,
resulting in seventy-six conversions.
There is no question but these SER
vices have done great deal of good
In Kinsley. AT the Sunday morning
services before the close of the revival
one OF the prominent members of the
church, with few short remarks,
suggested a collection being taken up
as token of good will to the pastor.
There being no objections only those
raised by the pastor. a collectition
was taken amounting to $15. The
meeting were well attended, there be-
ing large crowds nearly every night
and excellent behavior all the time.
A vast amount of good has been done
by these services; how much only time
will tell. Suffice us to say the Meth
odist church is on a more solid foun-
datien than ever before. Rev. Cum
mlngs and wife have labored faith
fully among us for nearly two years.
During the time they have been here
the growth of the church has been up
ward. They have made many friends,
and should Bishop Vincent say to re-
turSe they will be received heartily
and we know they will feel at home
