= just as there is ebb and flow in
the tides of the sea, so is there OF
the population of the country. Men
move back and forth-some for
better and some for worse. The
other day woman came into the
Pioneer Office and tried to trade
some Morton county land for land
in Nebraska. She was told that
if anybody in this Office had any
Nebraska land, he would be de-
lighted to trade it for land in Nor
ton county but alas, a shortage in
Nebraska holding prevented the
proposed trade. What was the
matter? She had come with her
family from Nebraska; had bought
three quarters of land here, and be-
cause she had come among strang-
ers, and saw no old faces, wanted to
go back to her home again. One
would have supposed that she and
her family would have taken these
things into consideration before the
change was made. She had esti-
mated at their true value the lands
Of Nebraska with their sand hills
and light character. But her move
was not made after due considera-
