BALE'S GRIST StILL. North Central Avenue, CoWwater Kansas. The Avilla Democrat comes out this week in support of both propositions. That is true patrioism. Comanche county needs both of the roads, and should not tail on next Saturday to give both a rousing majority.

Let all Sectional feeling be nopped and find its proper grave in the past, t'o couutv can be prosperous with a continual broil at her door. Prosperity knows no tenitory built of riles and contention. Capital finds no employment there, and live, wide-awake, energetic men seek no such fi Ms lor engagements but spurn it with contempt. Unite! we progress, divided we -link backward, contending we destroy and cripple the future brightness ami success of the dainty, we have taken so much pride in building up and advancing. Let ery man be ready with a sturdy hand to advance and strengthen the interests of all.

This done, hoth propositions will carry. Cwmaitci.e will boom. Saturday's wank at the tolls in Comanche comity, will brlgu or darken, build up or tate down, ike strong or weaken, the hope of our future progress frr mouths to c- me. Saturday's vote at the Hills on the railroad propositions before us, will give new lite to business transactions or shut them down with a dull thump, will open wide the doors to die busy world, or close them up with a restless groan, will command the attention of capital ami energetic speculators or drive them to foreign fi Ids. ij my dear farmer, business man and Comanche count voter, on which side of this mighty avalanche of humanity will you take your stand, Will it be for advancing, improving, developing, a ng capital to capital, trade to trade, and booming wi the.

spirit of Kansas heroe. the county in hich you live and for which you have entertained high hop or will you take a stand again-1 the bonds, against progression, r.gairibt trade and close up the doors now open and welcoming you to join hands with a live, busy world. Think well, think long and deep. Fling open our doors to commerce. Welcome railroads, and energetic men will follow and the boom and hum of business will make you rich and happy.
