No "Blanks." Two Thousand persons will readily put a dollar each into a scheme offering a prize of $1,000, only one can get it, and 1,909 must lose his dollar. A publisher puts $2,000 into collecting and preparing useful information, and offers to everyone of 2,000 persons who contributes only a dollar or so, a printed duplicate of the results, so that each one may have theE ntirb benefit of what has actually cost or more. Is not this better than any chance scheme, full of blank tickets This applies to all good journals and all good books. Here i3 a good special illustration. The Publishers of the American Agriculturist expend $25,000 a year in gathering plain, practical, reliable information, valuabl to every person, to every family, in country, village, or city.

There are 700 or 800 ariginal engravings in each volume which brinar right to the eye and understanding a multitude of labor-saving and labor-helping contrivances, ard implements for out-door and in-door work, very many of them home produced. Thi3 great number of useful, instructive, and pleasing engravings, is a most valuable feature of the American Agriculturist, making it greatly superior to any other source of similar informntion. This journal constantly publishes caustic exposures of Humbugs and Swindlers, which save its readers many times its cost. Over $25,000 a year are expended in collecting and preparing information, engravings, giving thousands of useful hints and suggestions. Yet each and every reader gets the full benefit of $25,000 outlay.

The cost to single subscribers is only $1.50 per year, post free; four copies, and to clubs to ten or more only $1 each. Specimen copies 10 cents each, postage free. It will pay every one to have this Journal. Try it. Marshall's magnificent Steel-Plato Engraving, entitled "The Farmer's Pride," is presented to each subscriber sending 20 cents extra to cover cost of packing and pos' tage.

Orange tod Publishers, 245 Broadway, New York, A Monthly Eoyal Scrap Book-The most intelligent readers have Scrap Books for presorving the choicest articles clipped from time to time from newspapers, magazines and books. These collections, although comparatively very small, are often es teemed of more value than many they only embrace the most precious gems gathered from large fields of literature. If several persons of culture and experience, who are especially adapted for making these selec tions, should submit the results of their labors to a competent editor to classify and arrange into departments. 'embracing every variety of desirable household reading, and if this matter. thus arranged and classified, should be printed in book form, we should have something like each number of Wood's Household Magazine which contains one hundred large pages.

This Magazine is destined to be a Monthly Royal Scrap Book of the cream of the world's litera ture. The February Number on our table, be ing the second number of the sixteenth volume, embodies a feast of literary gems suited to the tastes of all readers, and its articles breathe a spirit of economy, morality and virtue which t-? highly efreshing in tfc Is age of folly and extrav agance. No family can afford to do without it. The subscription price i3 but $2 per year. Sam' pie copy will be mailed on receipt of onlylOcts Address, S.

4 public sale, to satisfy a debt due a type foundry in Chicago. Said debt was con- -tracted by G. F. Harnmar, who started the Sentinel, and whose father was se curity for the debt. We bid the office in at a certain price, but the asrent of the mortgagees raised our bid for the foundry, saying he would submit our bid to the holders of the mortgage, and if they accepted of it, the office would remain in our possession.

So we cannot say at this writing whether this is the last issue of the Sentinel or not. If the office is moyed away our friends will hear from us in the newspaper business again soon, as we have several offers to take charge of other offices. We have worked hard to make the Sentinel a good paper, and know that our efforts have been appreciated by the people. We have some friends in Highland whom we shall always remember. nere are many good people in this beautiful little town, but we are sorry to see a lack of public spirit here a want of enterprise, a sort of a settled apathy and listlessness as to the future of the town.

If Highland had a rail road, it would be the first town in Nor thern Kansas. And now if she loses her newspaper, the probability is, she will never have another. There are men ot wealth and influence here, who should take pride in the prosperity 01 the place, and see that it is fairly advertised. But they are backward about doing it. The men who wouldlielp the town and keep up the paper have not the means to do so.

Whether our bid is accepted or not by the Chicago firm for this office, we may accept one of the propositions of fered us to publish a paper in another town. But if all the business men of High land will advertise, if the people will work for this paper and help support it we will agree to remain with them. We will have to have a new press, and some additions to the office in the way of material, etc. This must be attended to at once, as other parties are awaiting a reply from us, which we must accept or reject very soon. Two papers ought to be able to live in this, the wealthiest county in the State.

The Chief reiterates the stale, worn ways-used-by-some-people phrase, "I told you so," in speaking of the sale of the Sentinel. kI told you you were trying to straddle too much. In view of the fact that this office was sold to satisfy a chattel mortgage, we can not see what politics had to do with the sale at all. Besides the Chief knows if it would tell the truth, that the editor of this paper has not changed his politics nor ever attempted two parties at the same time. We could with equal consistency, have charged the Chief with "trying to straddle too much" when it was a red-hot Greenback organ, or when it supported Democrats for office.

But the Chief is fed with pap from the public crib has all the official patronage of the county, and is bitterly opposed to any other paper being published in the county. Its editor has worked hard to make it a suc cess, but he always has had official patronage to keep his paper up. We are sorry to see Miller so unjust to rival printers who deserve success who w-'. rk hard to be successful but who fail because the official patronage of the county is all given to one paper. How long is this thing to continue? Will there ever come a time when the public printing will be divided among the papers in the county It is to the interest of every person living in this part of the County to maintain and keep up the Sentinel.

We have done our. part, so far, as far as we have been able financially, to give you a good local paper. And now we ask you to do your part in aiding to keep it going. We came here to make Highland our home, provided we could make a living, and it now remains with the people to say whether we shall stay or not. Half the business in Highland is not represented in the columns of our paper.

This ought not to be the case. Every man doing business matter how small, ought to advertise Every person getting mail at the Highland postoffice should take the Sentinel. Think this matter over, friends. It is reported that Hiawatha has the small-pox. The disease been raging fearfully at Fairbury on the Denver railroad, and the presumption is that the infection was carried by some one to Hiawatha.

J. A. Kennedy was down to St. Joe last week and reports trade brisk. The only draw-back to St.

Joe is that it is too close to Highland to ever amount to much. J. F. Johnson sold and shipped 7 carloads of cattle this week. Vcn der Pand Pcgins to Party for the Benefit of Highland Band.

the The party Tuesday night for the benefit of the Highland Band promises to be a big affair. There is some money yet to be raised to clear off the indebtedness on the instruments, and it is hoped that people will take sufficient interest in the matter to turn out in force, and besides having a good time, help the boys to get out of debt. Everybody is invited. Remember Tuesday, 25th inst. ffc John Misse "pads" now.

Guthrie's divorce notice is all right. Big thing, the band entertainment Tuesday night the 25th. Who will bring us some potatoes on subscription The snow of last week still lingers some of it at least. The first of March will soon be here. Newstoek of wall paper just received at Arch Campbell's.

Also a lot of clover and timothy seed. By Hiawatha papers just received we learn that the small pox is in that town, in the family of S. P. Gaskill. "I never fail to attend band enter tainments." What Never "Well, hardly ever.

Norman Case found his pigs. See what advertising does. They both came home after seeing a copy of the Sentinel. If you want Sale bills come to the Sentinel office. If you want eggs, call at this some choice Brahma office.

Todd's stock. Pure and true to feather. Eggs 2,00. per setting of 15, Austin George, one of the pioneers of Doniphan county, died at his home in Burr Oak township, last Sunday, of consumption. Men who are elected to office often forget there is a hereafter in politics.

And men who are defeated sometimes act the same way. Remember the band entertainment next Tuesday evening. Mr. Brim lost a valuable cow Tuesday night. Whether she choked to death, or died with some other ailment is not known Of course you will goto the band entertainment Tuesday night.

The Highland brass band is improving wonderfully under tutorship of Prof. Miuier. The boys already play some tunes remarkably well. We have received a lot of new type and are prepared to do sale bills in good shape at low rates. The tickets printed for the Band Festival at this office, are highly complimented.

Nice work. The Band Festival at the Masonic Hall next Tuesday night, the 25th, will l3 a grand affair. Billy McCoy of Atchison, was in town this week. Billy looks well, and feels well. The airjand things of -Pork-opolis evidently agrees with him.

Remember the Band entertainment at the Masonic Hall Tuesday night. J. P. Johnson has the only set of abstract titles in the County, but he doesn't advertise them. Procure your tickets of Oscar Long for the Band entertainment.

i We had a call from that old Demo cratic wheel-horse, Dan Williams, of Robinson Tuesday. Dan is bigger than he used to be when he read the Brown County Advocate A pleasant call from the Misses L.illie DeVoe, Liza Hubbard and Annie Forbes last week. They wanted to see Alf sling the roller. Call again, girls. The Leavenw orth Times' cut at us about that valentine is appreciated.

We did not receive any nary a one. Our friend Will Foster is a true son of old Massachusetts for which reason he feels grateful to his friends. Chief. How would it have been if he had been unfortunate enough to be born in any other State. II.

P. Robinson, assisted by his pupils will give a Literary Entertainment on Thursday evening Feb. 27th, consisting of Essas Dramatic Reading's and Dialogues. Tickets lOcts. Tickets to be had at the post office.

4 Should Pass A bill has been introduced in the Legislature, giving lawyers the right to designate in what papers Sheriff sales shall be published in cases in which they are the attorneys. The bill should be passed. It is a just one. One paper in the County would not then get all the sales to print. The Chief fights the bill.

By all means let it become a law. Such laws are wholesome. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1879. St oscpb Se Denver. Time TstTol.
