Number Two. 'Will it pay to stay in Kansas and further undorgo tl'o privations incidental to pioneer life? I will say yes. and, as proof to sustain this assortion, I wifl giro a low of tho many facts: First, the climato ifPaifbe most fastidious could ask for, healthful and invigorating Iiere you always feel well. Socond. tho soil is of tho very best quality.

Third, tho water in the wells is pure and free from all mineral deposits. While it is trtio it lays a little too docp, yet the supply is inexhaustible, neither tho wetness or dryness of tho seasons affecting the quality or quantity, so all you have to do is to harness tho wind to- bring a plentiful supply to tho surfaco, not only for your stock, but to irrigate your garden as well, but as it is a conceded fact that deep and thorough cultivation will ultimately do away with the needs of irrigation, it hardly necessary to mention that question. Fourth, we now have all the rail roads either built or under con tract of building to give us tho ad vantage of close competition that we will need for years to como. Fifth, it is an almost assured fact that we will got tho appropriation by the present Congress for a doep harbor at Galveston, Texas. Should wo get this, then we aro in better condition for shipment to foreign countries than Chicago and her surroundings aro, for when our products are onco afloat at Galveston tho furthor cost of transpor tation is about eqnal to New York, while Chicago has to run all their products a thousand miles to reach Now York, and this by rail, which of itsolf, will bo greater per centago than from Galvesto to the foreign ports.

So if tho farming lands surround ing Chicago in a radius of from 4 to 5 hundred miles are worth from $20 to 3100 dollars per acre, what is our land worth lying adjacent to Galveston? Another important factor for us to consider is that already millions of dollars are being invested by eastern capitalists in and around GalvestOD for speculative purposes, which assures ns of tho help of those capitalists to develop this country. Already there is a bill oefore Congress to sink experimental artesian wells all over tho country, besides Major Powell's proposition to a slack water navigation from Galveston along the foot bills of the Rockies until it intersects the Missouri river, thereby cutting off the over-flow of melting sdow and surplus water that now escapes down the Missouri, carrying destruction to tho dikes and levees along the rivers below to New Orleans. This water will then be turned over this country. The consequonce will be that we will have hundreds of running streams all ever this country, and as one improvement-' calls for another, the capitalists, above alluded to, will see the great necessity of north and south railroads to carry the products of Iowa, Missonri, Nebraska, Minnosotn, and, in fact, all the great north-west to our southern sea-port city, and furthor, all of you will bear testimony to tho fact that those who came to this country and invested their money in stock raising have made a success, as must be the fact when we have free range and plenty of grabs 8 to 9 months in the ear, and wheat and rye culture has proven successful. So I will again say, "bo3s, stay by the ranch," More anon.

The Dependent pension bill passed both branches of Congress last week, the president has signed it and the soldier hating element will have an opportunity to kick on an appropriation of Kan-sas will come in for a large slice of this amount and a republican president didn't veto the bill ore among the reasons why our people are pleased. The editor of tho Emporia Republican will bo boustingof a clean undor-shirt shortly. Wo notice a laiiinlry card in their advertising columns. Harrison for' Congress by acclamation by tho republicans of the 4th district-, in convention irtKmporia Tuesday of last week. The Honso 'of Representatives knocked tho Silver bill, recently passed by tho Sonate, out last A commjtte, consisting of members from both branches of Congress; are now working on the bill.

Th5 Kansas representatives stayed by their constituents and voted for tho measure tuut gives us tree coin-ago of fllvcr. Somo day when' Kansas gots tr) bo a pivotal state, so that presidents will bo chosen from nmong her pcoplej and thistimo is not fur away cither, thoro wilt bo pictures' on tho campaign badges of dugout whero tho Hon. So-and-so was born. Dugouts would look almost as rustic as log houses. Tho democratic candidates in" Koarney county didn't' announce themselves soon.enough to suit Joo Dillon, editor of tho Hartland Her ald, so ho has announced himself aa a candidate for Representative.

Tho result cf loo's schemo will be watched with interest br the edi tors of south-west Kansas and if it pans out alt right it may bo tho ot helping tho fraternity ouC many ways. Tho following aro the reasons why prohibition Is a detriment to our state.

Then the J-T is in favor of defoating Ingalls; Con gratulations to tho J-T. Emporifi Republican. Is the defeat of Senator Ingalls tho only object the farmers have iril view? Wo understood they wero' working for cheaper necessaries of life and objects of this kind; and had, only recently decided td enter politics. It is a remarkable circumstance that the California vineyards that used to call for irrigation four of five times during the summer season, now in most cases, need irrigation only once in a previous winter; The land seems to have become filled up wiLh water, retaining much that is not evaporated. When years ago wells had to be sunk 75 feet td find water, it can now be reached by going down 10 to 15 feet.

Progressive Farmer. Irrigation, rains i plowing will some day produce similar re suits in Western Kansas and Eastern Colorado. George W. Boids has traded somo Kansas land for farms in Adams county and in fact Gcorgn has beoif doiug a regular ro 4 estate business since he returned from his western home. The latest Pale he niadd was for 220 acres of Kansas soil for which he received 5,600 in cash; This shows that Kansa land in worth more than most peoplo think in this part of the glolef.

Geneva, Herald. You old, slow who Ihir.k Kansas rio good will wuko up from the you are now faking r.f thee-e fine days and fin i nttd f-'v-a riistb-rn ae JfTl's Law IftoYiilrs Jlit "The County Superintendents of Public Instruction' shall hold annually in their respective counties, for a term of not less than four weeks, a Normal Institute for the instruction of Teachers and those desiring to teach." In compliance with this law, the Normal for this county will convene at the above mentioned place and time. Prof. W. II.

of Sprague College, Mo.i lias been secured as Conductor. His reputation a thorough-going conductor and instructor is so well known in this part of Kansas that it is unnecessary to present any of his credentials here in order to establish the fact with the teachers. KIlB tfuurse nl For Kansas Normal Institutes issued by the State Board of Education "as the official guide of conductors and instructors and as a hand-book for teachers" will be followed as close as circumstances will permit. Each one who is enrolled will be supplied with a copy at the beginning of the session or before as he may choose determined by the date of his enrollment. Board can be obtained at usual rates at boarding houses and private houses.

Those who desire to "club" together and board themselves can obtain rooms for that purpose. I jtytcnilanrc. If you desire to get the full benefit of the Institute, come the first day and stay till the close. Bring such books as you have and try to make the best of the opportunities presented. Invitation.

School officers and patrons are cordially invited to be present whenever it is convenient for them to do so. The law provides that a fee of one dollar be charged each one who enrolls, arid an additional fee of one dollar be charged each one who writes for a certificate at the close of the Normal. All persons who intend to come to the Normal are requested to enroll as soon as they can; get the course of study, and come prepared for good work. Young Folks. Boys and girls who think of making teaching a profession, should not hesitate to attend.

Wpactipr.s. Bring your note-books. Come prepared to do "deeper" work than ever. Write up the failures and weak points in last year's work, and have them strengthened. Everything possible will be 'done to build up the teachers.

Make a close study of the notes taken last year. Bring last year's note-books. Lrrtnrrs. An effort will be made to entertain and instruct the teachers with a free course of lectures. Among others, State Superintendent Geo.

W. Winans has promised to visit us and entertain the teachers with an evening talk. Wlis OSjcrt. One of the main objects of tho Normal is to give the teachers of the county an opportunity to mingle together and exchange views concerning the best methods of presenting the various subjects taught in the school room and by comparing notes, discard and cast aside all usages which are unanimously condemned. They become acquainted with and interested in the welfare of each other and thus the educational interests of the county are united by a bond of fellowship.

Will you belong to that union? Respectfully, MILTON P. HAMMER, County Superintendent. A Snep. Two hundred and twelve men's stiff hats, ktcst Mods, all browns, taus, pearl and col-rs with ventilator, now f.T.4 Fi-C fi Heasonahle. INGALLS, Sale Stable KANSAS, KANSAS J.
