Prico inquire of John Clifton, Dexter, Kansas. Tho wind and regular fall weather that has beeu prevailing here for sev cral days is drying out the wheat stacks. maturing the corn and is first class hay weather. Hut a little dry for plowing for wheat. We have a sample of early Iowa corn in our orflee, which wo think would be profitable for our farmers to It is now very hard, with no sign of being worm caloii.

The average ear is eight inches long, good grain und medium sized cob. This corn will make its self planted early and properly cultivated if the dry season should set in, in July. R. C. Botirdctlc raised the corn and has quite a field of it.

It was grown on hidi prairie land. Last Sunday Afternoon In company with our family we took a drive over a section of country east of Dexter. In going out we called 011 Bio. U. C.

Bour- dette and sampled some of his fine peaches and grapes, of which he has an abundance. From there we drove east three or four miles, then north two or three miles and started west for home. In all our travels we found fine corn Melds with everything looking prosperous for the farmer. We came around past the farms of Smythe, Marr. llard-wick, Bullinglon, Furman, Barnheart and Merydith.

All showed signs of thrift and good prospects ahead by the heavy fields of corn. An editor who "caught on'' to the flannel shirt craze, gives his experience as follows: The liahnel shirt is a great institution. When it is brought home the proud husband and father don it and goes forth to defy the sweltering 1ieat of a July day. The next week it is just about the size for the 12 year old son. Another weeK rolls arounds and it is a perfect tit for the baby.

The fourth week it desends to Betsy's doll and the fifth week it vanishes altogether; disappears mysteriously. It was seen to go into the washtub, but that was tho last of it. It had shrunk away to nothing." Strong City Republican, Bro. Ilornady of the Udall Record, in speaking of a drunken row at ElDora-do says: "A bootlegger, after imbibing the Missouri medicine, attacked and seriously injured his wife and bis aged mother." And further says: The Dexter Free Press man would have thtse interesting incidents occur in every hamlet in Cowley co'inty he wants lively times, on the. Miusoun plan." Tho "self appointed" dictator of the Freb Press, who operates the Record, Rite' about as much sense as we have always given him credit for There never has been an article in the Free Press that would indicate the above and he knows it.

We urge the necessity of our people doing something to locate a cob pipe factory here. The present corn crop is the largest and best ever known. The cobs that could be worked into pipes would bring hundreds of dollars to a radius of country within ten miles of Dex ter. Farmers and business men look well to your interests, and do something at once to create a market for an article that will bring in cash returns. There is very few farmers this year but what will have corn to sell.

Feeders would sooner have it shelled, than on tho cob for their cattle, the cobs for fuel will pay for t-helling, while if there cob pipe factory here the large ones could be picked out and sold for as much as the corn would bring and the small cobs would be left to burn. This is no idle fancy but a few fignreu ill prove we are right. There is nothing like be ing eqninomical and make everything marketable that can bo raised on the farm. Let nothing go to waste that cau be turned into profit by the farmer and he will soon see the advantages gained bv being eqninomical. If 20 cents per bushel is realized for corn hen shelled Hie robs will bring as much at the fac tory for pipes.

This year's crop of corn will bring from 3o to 40 cts. per bushel with a prpe factory here. a to 1 Mis. May llavnood came In from Ksnsaa City laxt Tuesday inoriiiiiK for a visit with her parents Mr. mid Mrs HrhI and her little son Wait.

After the singing of Hie Alliance Song nt the Stale meeting last week by Bio. Geo, Crumley, we was requested by several to reproduce it in our col limns again, which we have done and- say to those ho wish the song to sing in their Alliances, can be supplied from tin's effiee nt Poets, per doz. or two do. for 2octs. printed on cards.

There is a slight difference between the Alliance papers and the political papers. The Alliance papers lias no "ax" to grind and aro not afraid to come out ana spcuk ineir sentiments for the laboring classes. Whiie the po litical papers, although, in a manner friendly disposed toward the laboring classes, have to wait until their ring bosses dictates what they shall say. This is American Independence, with a vengence. hope our citizens, both town and country, will all heed the Mayor's proc lamation in reference to the dogs, as it is very essential for the safety of the people in general to kill or put every dog in close confinement for the next thirty days.

Don't let any one for one moment refuse to do their duty, even they have valuable dogs, a3 the lives of all the dogs in the country could nev er compensate for the life of one citizen. We clip the following item from the Sullivan, Times: "Mrs. A. Whit man, accompanied by Tom Whit man and daughter Stella, left Tuesday forau extended visit to relatives 111 Kansas."

John Riggs and family, Since the world began to put on record its great disasters, the terrible revolt of nature against man ho would master her, there hayo been few if any such woeful horrors as the Johnstown flood. Ten thousand or more people were drowned, and nearly three times the number were heart-broken and suddenly reft of their means of support. It is important to have such a narrative as this given to the world 111 a permanent record, which is accurate as well as graphic. The last book on tho subject, entitled. "The Johnstown published by II.

S. Goodspeed Co. of New York, is full of intense interest, and telis its story with wonderful force. The author, we are told, spent considerable time at the ruined city and gathered his facts -ot first hand, having made careful personal study of the situation and all the circumstances involved in the catastrophe. To tell such a story accurately as well as dramatically involves a personal visitation and continued study of all the facts on the ground itself.

This the writer did, and as a consequence his narrative has a dramatic force and a life likeness which will thrill every reader. Enough time has elapsed since the flood to allow the genuine truth to be sifted out and settle down from the first and crude accounts of the great event, which were necessarily hurrred and inaccurate. To be sure nothing could ell surpass the awful reality, but much was sent and writr ten at first, which was not strictly true, and again much lias beeu added not at fust fully known to even the most anxious investigator. The author has evi dently taken much pains to do justice bis difficult task, and to give the world a strictly veracious as weU as a moving story of the death and ruin so swiftly precipitated on an unsuspecting and happy community. The publishers have embodied it in an adrairably-mads octavo book of 522 pages, with 48 full-nairB illustrations which all educated r- people will appreciate.

Atlanta Items. There has been some fine rains this week In this vicinity. Corn is tryiug to see how large it can grow. Peaches are getting ripe and the trees are loaded with them. When we look around and see the bountiful harvest the farmers will reap this fall, we think surely providence is already rewarding the farmers for coming out and taking a stand against monopolies.

The Atlanta Merrbantile'Company is doing a good business considering the capital they have to go on, the members should take more stock if possible. Under the management of Mr. Brosius the store is bound to prosper. We have indeed got the right man in the right place. The sub-alllancos iu this part of the county are prosperous, new members are iutiated every week and they show up financially extra well considering the length of time they have been un uer tno yoke or bondage but are now willing te step out and declare them selves a free people.

The new hitch racks loom up around the corner. Charles Lyles of Muddy creek Alii ance died August 10th. and was buried by the Alliance, August 11th. D. Cunningham was called to Pleas ant Valley Alliance in Butier county last Thursday evening for the purpose of instructing them in the workings of our order.

X. Y. Railroads. The Chicago Alton Bail way is look ing with longing eyes upon thefeitile fields and enormous traffic to Southern Kansas, and hankers after extensions in this direction. Cannot Mayor Scliiff- bauer resussitate his Panhandle road- induce the Alton people to take hold of it und thus bring them into and througl this city on their way to the Southwest An effort should be made to bring them heie, for it is evident they intend to push their line into Kansas in another season, and we can have it if tho pro per effort is made.

City Traveler. The Paubandle scheme is impract- able, and would notf reach the Alton by 200 miles if built; but the Chicago, Ft, Southwestern is a practable route aud connects with the other at Higginsville, and would bring the Alton to our doors and through the best parts of Missouri and Kansas. The road would pass through II olden, But ler and Rich llill, and Ft. Scott, Fredonia, Howard, Grenola and Dex ter in Kansas. The route over the hills between here and Grenola has been surveyed and found to be the easiest with the shortest and lowest grades, of any otner route over tne inns, ine road has an organization, with A.

A. Harris of Ft. Scott as President and is in a position to take any advantage of any opportunity offered. If the busi ness men or AiKansas uity want con nections with the Alton road they should lok alter this one. There are two other roads that Arkansas City ought to look after and which might be managed so as to be of great advantage to that city.

First, the Grouse Creek road might be extended north east from this olaje to Yates Centre or Toronto to connect with the Mo. Pacific at either of these points. Such a connec tion, would bring Arkansas City neirer to Kansas City than Winfleld, Welling ton or Wichita and give her a decided advantage over either of these cities in the matter ol freights and give the Mo, Pacific road advantage over the other roads in handling Arkansas City busi ness. The other road is the Kansas City, Wyandotte Northwestern, which now controls or runs a road from Kansas City to Carbondale and are building from the latter place to Wichi ta. This road will shorten the distance from Wichita to Kansas City and en able Wichita to letain the advantage of points which sheiiasheld heretofore Arkansas City it seems to us, ought to be able to secure a branch from that road, from some point in Greenwood county and running down the entire length of the Grouse Valley.

This would bring Arkansas City as near Kansas Citv as Wichita, and if the Grouse Valley road is extended will give Arkansas City the advantage in rates, even after Wichita gets the new road. The K. C. W. H.

we understand is backed by the Mo. Pacific and is sure to be built. Will our neighbors on the Arkansas be equal to the occasion now, as they have been in the pas. We will see.
