The brick on the new post-ofiice building is finished. Itoscoe Conkling, of New York, died yesterday morning at 2 o'clock, Street commissioner Litel is doing a large amount of street grading.

Some cf our exchanges claim that Lew Hcadley, of the Gaylord Herald, will move to Ilill City and start a paper. We do not believe Lew Headley is doing a pood business in Gaylord which he will never leave to go to such a town as Hill City.

The Abilene ttonrd of Trade have taken a four-column advertisement and one hundred copies oftheGa zette per day for thirty days, and ordered by G. W. ltohrer to iuint forty thousand posters and folders all to boom the town. They are alive at Abilene. The Republican convention at Osborne last week, elected the following gentlomen to attend tht Wichita Convention: J.

B.Craney, M. Moh-ler, J. W. Smith, Dillon and Ilahn and to the Topeka Convention, Han-back, Cochran, Iiogers, Hull andMc-liride. When you seo a newspaper bragging on its own town and booming her for all she is wort look at the advertising columns of that paper and see if the boom is solid and substantial or a mere mockery.

The ed-ltoiial columns may deceive, but the advertising will not. Why can't Downs have a Building nnd Loan Association? About every town. of any importance in Western Kansas has one. and the p.ipcrs speak in high terms of them. There should be one organized here, and every laboring man who wants to build for himself a home could do so on the installment plan.

D. Lark in Son received an order this week from parties in Alabama for samples oE dress poods. They are the same people who sent to their t-tore here last summer for their fine dress goods. The Banner Store is known far and wide. Judicious advertising and good goods is what accounts for it.

chairman congressional committee, Kirwin, Kansas. Frank II. Clark, thirteen years of age whose parents live live miles south of Fremont, Graham county, Knnsas, left Ids home in the fore part of last November, and was heard of shortly aftei wards in Norton, Norton county Kansas, going by the name of Reed, and was in a wagon going east. His parents are very anxious about bis welfare, and any person knowing of his whereabouts will confer a great favor by notifying them at once at Olean, 1 Graham county, Kansas. Within her boundary lines Kansas includes some of the grandest farming lands on the continent, beautifully located towns are dotted all over rolling prairies, the lest class of immigration has given her a most desirable population, the most heroic traditions, a universal fidelity to the principles of liberty and law, and long succession of wise governmental administrations have brought Kansas up to that place which it occupies in the estimation of the country at large, Tho tattler is on.

of the worst enemies mankind has to contend with. Many a fair name has been o'ercloud-cd with suspicion and many persons Las been started on the downward path by tho nimble tongue of the scandal monger. Be careful what you say nbout your neighbor. What you hear is not always true. Always remember that repeating bad reports about your fellowmen cannot possibly benefit you and it may do a great deal of harm.

Even if the person you aro disposed to talk about, is not just what ho or sho should be, still your speaking evil of them is not going to do any good and will probably cause great sorrow to innocent ones. Some newspaper writer of the present day and generation had laid it down as a rule that in the final shake tip. tho town that has done tho least lying about itself and its prospects will como out nearest the head of the procession. In that event Downs will stand a xood show of being very close to the baud. As a matter of fact there has; never been a lie told about the town, barring the exception of some enthusiastic citizen who will insist that the population is two or three thousand and still going, when it is only 1,000 or a shade below.

There have been no lies told about the many conveniences and luxuries we enjoy; no. misrepresentations as to prospects; no claims that absolute facts will not warrant. Investigation a fair minded man will always result to the city's credit. The Capital rejoices with Northwestern Kansas in the splendid pros-peet for an immense immigration which, will pour into that rieo and fertile section this year. The needs of Northwestern Kansas have been additional railroad faculties, but the completion of the Rock Island, the Santa Fe and the Union Pacific branches bring all the vast territory In closer communication with all sections of the state and insures a wonderful growth.

Northwestern Kansas offers greater advantages to business men and home-seekeis than any other section of our state; and the Various immigration societies together with the cheap railroad excursionists will aid very much toward developing herplendid resources. Tope- A Large Factory to bo Built this Sumner. Tally Another for Downs. What Downs has needed for years more than anv one thing vet. is some sort of a manufactory, or for thit matter several of them, and that want is about to be supplied, C.

Vog ler who has had much experience in the manufacture of crackers will at once begin the erection of a factory on the corner of Morgan Avenue and Peterman street. The main building will be of brick 25x40, two stories nignaoove casement. uacK oi tins will be another building of brick to be used as a bakery. The cost of theee buildings will be several thou sand dollars. Later on we will give more particulars concerning this new enterprise.

ork was begun yesterday on the basement, and it will be pushed rapidly forward. A New Enterprise. A long felt want is now being sup- Elied in this city by W. A. Berry, who as begun the manufacture of wagons.

He turned out the first one this week, and compares very favorably with any that are shipped in here from the east. Hundreds of such wagons could be sold here every year. Our people should patronize home industries, thereby giving employment to working men here instead of paying this money to eastern manufacturies. Killed by a Tlule. Will Oren, emplojed by Jackson Bros, at their lower mill, received a kick from a mule last Wednesday, which resulted in his death soon after.

He had led the mule out in the yard and in some manner the mule kicked him in the forehead, just over the right eye, crushing in his skull. He was soon after found lying unconscious on the ground near the barn; was carried to the house and a doctor sent for, but nothing could be done to save him and he died about two o'clock the next morning. His parents reside at Cawker, where his remains were taken, the funtral taking place on Friday. He was a young man highly respected by all who knew him. A Dirty Trick.

Last Friday night an old gentleman somewhat cracked in the upper story came down from Stockton and stopped at the Avenue nouse. He had no money, and wanted to go east. Sunday morning Marshal Litel put hiin on board the train and took him back to Stockton where he learned that the old gentleman had been given a ticket to go east on. but while coming down on the train some rascal exchanged a titket for Downs for the old ge'ntlemau's eastern ticket. It was a dirty trick, and as the perpetrator of it is known he will be arrested for itshould he return to this country.

At Stockton the court adjudged him insane and he was sent to the asylum. Died. At her home in this city, Friday. April 13, 1S8S, Elizabeth, the wife of J. A.

Forline, aged 51 years. The funeral services were conducted by Bev. Hoffman at their home, Saturday at 10 o'clock a. m. A large number of friends followed the remains to tho Downs cemetery where the burial took place.

The Odd Fellows, of which Mr. Forline is a member, turned out en mass. Elizabeth True was born Apri 1 10, 1837, and was married to Mr. J. A.

Forline at Matoon, Illinois, in 1859. They came to Downs in 1880 where they have since resided. She leaves two sons and one daughter, C. M. and Harry Forline and Mrs.

L. D. Lelloy, and a kind ami loving husband to mourn her loss. She was held in high esteem by a large eirole of friends in this city who will sadly miss her. The Chief extends its sympathy to the family of the deceased.

New Huildingti. We stated last week that Downs was entering upon a building boom never before experienced. This weok in looking over the situation we find that we were not in the least mistaken. New buildings are going up on every hand, and everybody is talking of building, either a business building or a residence. Geo.

Magee expects soon to begin tho erection of a three story brick hotel, 25x100 where his lunch room now stands, that will cost in the neighborhood of $10,000. C. S. Dittrnan will build a two story brick 25x75 on his lot adjoining the new post-office building. Several thousand dollars is now being raised to build the new Opera House.

When it is completed it will be the finest one this side of Atchison. Let the building boom go on, and before six months rolls around Downs will be in tho lead of all towns in the Northwest. Kaiiisa OnVr to the World. Kansas offers to immigrants a country to settle in as productive as anv there is a country well watered, level, or gently rolling. The climate is healthy and at most seasons of the year delightful.

It is not necessary to back up with statistics the statement that Kansas land is rich. With the state only partially settled, it has for several years past ranked either first or second in the production of corn, wheat, flaxseed, broom-corn and castor beans. Besides this, it has ranked near the top for oats, potatoes, dairy products, cattle and hogs. We are not speaking merely of quality but of quantity. As to quality, whenever Kansas entered in competition, her agricultural products and fruits have taken first premiums.

There are millions of acres of this rich soil yet unbroken. There are 52,000,000 acres in the state. Of this, only aoout 15,000,000 acres are under cultivation. All the remainder excepting a couple of million of acres, is god farm land not grazing land merely, but land to be plowed and sowed. With this goe3 the advantage of chnrches, schools and colleges, already built, and doing good work.

Another I'raiiU. Some weeks ago H. Meibergen, C. Tunnicliff and others took out insurance in the Kansas City Mutual Fire Insurance Company, of Kansas City, Kansas. A short time ago theyr were notified that the concern had quit business, and these gentlemen are out trir money that they had paid in.

Mr. Meibergen wrote to the State Insurance department, concerning the company and received the following reply: Topeka, Kansas, April 10, 1888. H. Meibekgkx, Downs. Dear Sir: When an Insurance Co.

stops business the jurisdiction of this department ceases and the courts come in. It matters very little whether vou retain or send them the policy. The history of the company is so bad that I think it will not pay whether you return the policy or not. Very Truly. D.

W. Wilder, Supt. It is a plain fact that the company is and has ben a grand fraud, and the State Insurance Department of the great state of Kansas is a greater one. The Superintendent, W. D.

Wilder, of the State Board of Insurance says, "That the history of the company is so bad" and knowing the company to be a fraud he has allowed it to swindle the people of Kansas out of thousands upon thousands of dollars This man Wilder is paid several thousand dollars per year to see that snide insurance companies are not allowed to do business in tho state, vet he has allowed this fraudulent concern to do business within the state for a number of years. The State Insurance Department was created to give employment to such blood-suckers as vilder, at the expense of the people. It jives no protection to our people, and should bo abolished- rock 16 F.

If every boy in the country wha has his way to make would sit down with the fact long enough to master it, that nothing but hard, honest work will bring anything worth having in this world, there would be fewer young men looking for some kind of work where they could keep their hands clean, lie in bed till eight o'clock in the morning.
