channels OF labor. They 90 to Tacoma,
Seattle, Everett, and other points on
the Sound where there is a big demand
for this kind of labor. But in this val
ley we do not need woodsmen factory
and mill hands; we could not give them
employment; we have no mills or man
ufacturing plants to sustain them:
therefore it would be folly to ask them
to come among us. What we ueed
mostly are men to cultivate the land
farmers Of small means to take up small
tracts of land to till on scientific prn-
ciples, subservient to the requirements
of irrigation. While we have received
pretty good body of this class Of inn
migrants this year, it is nothing com
pared to what we could accommodate.

numbers, SO don't be alarmed about not
receiving a share of the 1901 mmi-
grants.

! WHAT PEOPLE say !

Fred Parker-North Yakima is rap
idly forging to the front and it behooves
the citizens to so arrange the public
grounds OF the city that they may be a
source of pride and comfort in the future.
A park is one of the necessities of city
life and should be located within easy
access. believe that the most eligible
place available for park is in block
ing upon the entire block. 1t is not
particularly desirable for residence
property and could no doubt be had by
the city for park purposes for very
small consideration. 1t is bounded by
Natchez avenue on the west and is
accessible from all parts of the city.
Natchez avenue is one OF the best resi-
dence streets in the city and is in itself
almost park. The contour of block
los is such that it is most admirably
adopted for park purposes. With very
little expense miniature lakes and foun-
tains could be constructed. Sixth street,
which bounds the block on the east, is
being graded and sewer and water
mains are being laid, making block los
all the more desirable for park pur-
poses. believe the city council could
not do anything in the way of public
improvements that would be of greater
benefit to the residents of the city at
large than to secure this block at once
and convert it into public park.

st. Johns Day Celebration.

The Masons and Ladies of the East
ern Star, at Hoisington, appropriately
celebrated this occasion, Monday
night. One who was present reports
a most elegant time.
At Masonic hall the exercises opened
with an able address, subject:
"Solomon's Temple" by F. Vernon
Russell of Great Bend. The Hoising,
ton ladies then gave musical pro-
gram that was highly appreciated.
First was piano duet by Mrs. Geo.
Parker and Miss Siddorn, which was
splendid.
Miss Miller then gave a most pleasing
vocal solo.
A trio, composed of Mrs. Parker,
Miss Siddorn and Miss Miller, render
ed several songs in highly creditable
manner.
An adjournment was then taken to
Athletic Hall, where the Masons and
the Eastern Star ladies served a
magnificent banquet. The hall was
profusely decorated with flowers and
ferns, and all arrangements were per.
feet. To shake down the many good
viands and invite appreciated rest a
cakewalk was INDUCED in after the
banquet. although the Great Bend
visitors could not stay for this recrea-
tion-the ten mile drive home giving
them sufficient exercise.
Those present from Great Bend
were: Mr.. and Mrs. L. c. Breeder,
Mrs. M. B. Fits, DIR. R. H. Meade.
F. Vernon Russell and Geo. Thatcher.

By ssOur Special.
Gossiping is always a live
feature of a small town. But
our town had lately her share
of it.
First the estrangement be-
tween one of our bellies and
young heroes, the former en-
ployed in a general store while
the latter just returned from the
Springs and is said broke her
heart. But it was not as bad
at that. Only last night they
were seen lovingly together.
Another item is the reform
movement going on in this wide
open town.
The nice part of it is that the
dispensers of refreshing liquids
are in hearty favor of it. But
our young generation seems to
kick.
And another item was the
rumor of a new drugstore. Well
it fell in the water but our phar
macopolium changed hands and
now they are Jealous of the new
manager and like to drive him
out of town. Brethren use a
little common sense and a sprin-
kle of truly christian spirit and
you will see your folly.
Jno. E. Valerius is said to
take a vacation and have a look
at the Rocky Mountains before
he ventures in the new country
called Goods" land.
Our new druggist no doubt
took the steer by the horns.
Only 3 to 4 months here, he is
the proud manager of one of the
finest equipped drug emporiums
in this part of the state. Moth
ing like pluck and plenty of it.
The new parlors for thirsty
souls and dry, parched humani-
ty are said to be opened on our
Nations birthday. But
ssCarrie" has not been invited.
The bank will open it's doors
on the first of July, weather and
wheat permitting.
A gang of hoboes made our
town a rather dangerous abode,
but His Honor, our illustrious
squire, put a damper on the
movement just i'll time.
The long looked for change in
our renowned hosiery will not
take place, more on account of
proper material than anything
else.
If the wind would keep a little
bit quiet our brother farmers
would enjoy harvesting much
better and get more wheat too.
Our barber has left us of a
sudden in a bad fix and they all
blame cher" for it.
But for the prompt interven-
ton of DR.. C. l.. Katz, Mrs. D.
NJ. Maher would have succumbed
in case of mercurial poisoning.
After this, Sunday mornings
at Olmitz will be rather dull as
there is a movement afoot, to
keep all and every store closed
until services at our cathedral
are over, which will be about
noon time. 1t will no doubt be
a benefit to someone, and no
one is expected to be the looser.

grams.

We have received, from the
Abby Press, New York, book
publishers, a copy of '.The Queen
OF Appalachian" written by Joe
III. Borders, formerly publisher
of the Great Bend Register, the
Saturday Quidnunc and Borders
Odd Fellow. The novel is a
very happy effort on the part of
the writer. Its plot is laid in
the South, and Appalachia is an
underground world, discovered
by chance in the early days by a
party of white people while es-
Gaping from massacre by In
dams. After getting into the
cave, or new world inside of this
old sphere, they loose the COM
bination and are unable to get
out, SO they set up housekeeping
and in the course of years be-
come a strong and healthy ma
ton, ruled by a queen who is
set upon by a Jealous rival and
accidentally pushed out on
earth to become the heroine of
the story. There is a mysterious
vein of religious thought, some
thing after the pattern of Chris
tian Science, woven into the
story by the imaginative writer.

impair the right of said contractor nor
to impair the validity Of said warrants
