A Gem OF ThouQht.

Meath a sunny sky but yet within
the grasp Of chilling winds, we await
with Impotence the coming Of the
glorious spriDg-time. All Nature
yearns for the soothing touch Of its
fairy fingers and silent plea through
balmy zephyrs, To burst forth from
prison walls aud proclaim again the
beauty OF vegetative profusion.
All ready has the timid dandelion
reared It's golden crest to smile IN mute
content, aud the dainty v!olats IN the
woodland peep from beneath the leaves
of summers past. The winter chirp OF
the wren has changed to notes OF song
and the robins lacOnic call has given
place to warbling melody, while the
mocking bird hops mersilv among the
leafless boughs and now again ventures
a note OF impatient delight.
Ii the Designer thus assures the
dropping violet, after the frosts Of
winter have scared Its petaled face u
bloom again mid summers realm, and
gives ~ the sturdy oak, whose leaves
lie whitening at rs feet the certainty
60 live again, will He-can lie forget
The spirit OF man when death, the frost
OF LIES winter, claims the bodyy
II He causes each waning night,
whose end Is foretold by the crimsoned
Z istern sky, to pass-O, 80 gradually
aud 10 surely into the bloom OF another
day, will lie with hold life hereafter
from the souls that have gone?
Can God give To iDanimate matter,
that which human heart rendered
cold and pulseless by Ills divine decree
dare not claim or expecly
All Mt! His every law made plain by
natures force, bespeaks a life beyond
the grave. We know not how, OF
where We will spend eternity, but at
the PROPER time and with the Masters
bidding we shall understand.

REUNION COMMITTEE GETS
BEST SPEAKER OF THE
LAST CONGRESS TO
HEAD LIST OF
SPEAKERS
.SHOuLDBt GREAT ATTRACTION
Statesman Of National Fame,
Brilliant Speaker and is a
Veteran. Colonel Of
Second Iowa Cal
vary

The Committee on speakers for
the next annual reunion Of the South
west Veterans Association in the
city park here, is making a success
Of it this year. O. NJ. Beeson Of
the committee, has just been notified
by Congressman Madison that Col.
VIM. P. Hepburn. who was the best
speaker in the House in the last
congress, has accepted his invitation
to attend the reunion at Dodge City.
Mr.. Madison writes that Col. Hep
burn is what they call "cracker
Jack" in the west, and that he will
make the greatest speech ever heard
"in the woods" [Wright's Park.
Col. Hepburn is known nationally
at present as the author Of the
Hepburn rate bill, but in war times
he was known as the colonel of the
Second Iowa Cavalry and he will be
among friends when he speaks to
the veterans here. Aside from the
fame be has won publicly, he is
known among his acquaintances as
a great man and good fellow in
general. At present he is con-
gressman from one Of the Iowa dis
tricts. Col. Hepburn would be a
/ big attraction as speaker anywhere
in the United States, and better
selection could not be made for the
reunion il we could take our choice
out Of the whole Union OF states.
Senator Cummins, ex governor Of
Iowa, is also expected to attend the
reunion, but definite information has
not been received regarding him as
yet, Mr.. Madison will know pos
lively regarding Senator Cummins
in a short time now.
The senators from Kansas have
agreed to be here, and other members
Of the Kansas delegation.
This is going to be a great year
for the reunion, and it will be a
rousing meeting and the bigg est
event Of the year in Western Kansas.

Busy In this Part Of Kansas

A few days ago there was an
article in one Of the Topeka papers
regarding the government land
offices in Kansas, and in the article
it was stated that there was not
much business in the office at Dodge
City. The same day that article
was published the writer happened
to be at the government land Office
here and noticed that there was a
lot Of business being done. There
were a hundred cases, Homestead
entries, ETC., considered by the force
here that day. About $4,000 worth
Of proofs were stacked up to be
gone over, and over $4,000 in money
had been paid in to the government
at this Office up to noon for that day.
There is, on an average about thirty
contest cases to handle each month
in the Land Office here and on an
average 100 letters written daily.
The force at the land Office here
certainly have steady hurry up job.
The new Serial Number Index System
|inaugurated last July facilitates the
wsgk Ii the Office and the force is
able % handle d good deal Of work
but they are kept busy just the same.
The government land Office, the

Office in Western Kansas that has
any thing to do with land, is always
working overtime.
