WHICH WR ARB laUAHIQ HOGBACK TO THE FBONf A Town to be Started at that Tue "Future Great of the West. It has been a common by word for a long time, whenever anyone wanted to convey an Idea of the ridiculous by saying, "Ob, I'm going to buy lots In Hogback," or "wait tiil Hogback commences to boom then I'll But that day has gone by. In i few short weeks It will no longer be a byword among the nations of tho earth. A town it to be started at Hogback which will soon rival Hays City as a commercial center, and the, place which now boasts of only a side track and a few prairie dogs and owls for inhabitants, will soon resound with the sound of saw and harumor. and the busy hum of trde, A company or twentv five capitalists from Illinois nnd Iowa headed by O.

From conversation had with gentlemen who have traveled over lull state, we learn that Ellis county has the best prospects for good crops of any In the state. Anyono who will drive over the couutry for twenty miles around Ellis will bo convinced that the crops never looked better thai! they do now, and unless out of the ordinary course of nature should happen we shall have splendid crops to harvest this fall. Tbls will natural! lvo this county a good name all over the UaJau.

and will attract land buyers acd settlers from all over the country. Our citizens business men, land agents, should sound forth thq, praises of Ellis county, especially. now that we, have such good crop prospects id back up our awaer-fiOns. Now ia our lime to secure a large Immigration arid have these fertile prairies bought up by actus! settlers The town of Ellis has made a good At Lowest Prices, will be pleased to have everyone G. call If any of our readers have friends Iu the east who are desirous of visiting Kansas this summer, they should be encouraged to make the trip A great dal misconception end -mlsunder Sending Is current in eastern states In regard to the Kansas boom.

Local pa pers alarmed the removal of Jarge uuribers of the most substantia) tod members of their respective com-' inanities, have adustriously disseminated qpd fostered the belief that tho Kausas boom was principally wind, and destined to collapse at au curly day. All tbut Is needed to convince an Intelligent person of the of this be Hef is for him to spend, week or two iu this state. Even the most thickly settled portions of Kausas are sparsely pvpul.al.od.es: yHnparoaV-wltH' many of the oidtir jitaios, and i sure to coufinuo. steadily and increasing volume until wo have five or six: millions of If oue thing" rejoices us more than another, it is the character the people Who are coining amoug us. Very few of tho anarchists, socialists aud plug uglies from the slums of Europo so loudly com-plaiucd of id the Atlantic stutes find their way to -Kansas.

The great bulk of the influx is composed ot moderately well to do people from the older states who ore shrewd enough to sos the immense advantages of the country. The result of all this is just as inevitable as any result of the laws of na-' ture. The value of all real property will continue to advance. as the density of populatiou increases.

WATER growth this year. Business bouses and residences are still going up, and tho hot weather which has laid out the boom in other towns seems to have no effect on it here. An addition to the shops will undoubtedly be made it the near Uis together with the good crops, will give Ellis a boom such as Ellis has cover had before. To all who are contemplating coming west, we would say come toEilis county and sie for yourselves if this. Is not destined to be tho garden spot of Kansas.

The Daisy" englno a cute contrivance that looks as if it would make a pretty plaything and which serves in the capacity of passenger, sleeping and baggage car, engineer's and fireman's cab and might be used for a provisipn depot iu an emergency passed devn the branch after supper yestorday, Engineer Bascom in charge, and returned, later in the day. The "Daisy" comes from the west on the main line. She isout onau important mission. Engineer Baseoin, tindor instructions from headquarte.s, is flllin? a two-gallon jug from every tank on.

the road for the purpose the water, to learn which sample is most suitable for engine ioilers. This morning the Daisy want up to Lincoln Center and came back, and then went down to Solomon City to make a forward and return trip to Beloit over the Solomon Valley branch, and going down the U. P. will pass over the Junction City branch C. C.

Fleck found In engineer Bascom an old cornrado in tho Virginia campaign and went down with him over the McPherson branch. Fleck jays this journey after a jug of water reminds him of Hunter's raid in tho Sowell mountains (in which Bascom and hint self were participants), when they were forced to go a long way oftentimes to fill their contpens. They fared in about the same manner for provisions. Sa lvia Journal 27th. At a certain debating society an Eng lish doctor recently argued that the Irish were naturally a depraved dishonest ract, and in support of his position be adduced his own experience.

He remarked that he had at Manchester eight hundred Irish patients on his books, and out of this number only thirty paid hira his fees. An Irishman rose when tho doctor sat down and said: There is never an effect without a cause; there is never a phenomenon which does not odmit of an explanation How, sir, can we explain the extraor dinary phenomenon to which the doe- tor has called our attention? He finds an explanation in the natural depravity of the Irish nature. sir, have an-. other explanation to offer, and it is this: That the thirty patients who paid hira were the only ones that recovered. A dweller in Western Kansas in a letter to the Kansas City Time, thus describes this country: Western Kansas will without doubt, in time be found to be the moat populous and prosperous of this great state.

Nowhere in tho west are better opportunities tor money making than hi what was once a portion of ibe great American desert, but which is j3w a beautiful expanse of ccimtry with boundless possibilities. To say that the section is settling up rapidly is but telling a solemn truth. The land is as rich as any in Kansas, and it will grow anything. As for rain western Kansas now receives its full quota, in fact for (wo years past it has been experiencing a heavier rainfall than eastern Kansas. Last Saturday I was caught in the heaviest shower I ever experienced iu tho Sunflower stale, Tho floodgates of heaveu veined to bave opeucd up aud tho raiu came domiu perfect sheets and torreuts.

It continued this way fcr nearly an hour arid then the sun came out again In all its radiant beauty, rqaking a per feet day. The therniiQmeUr. In arain risinij to the top, Althotigi in Its infancy th pulse of the city of Cilia ia quicken inf in response to the new life blood which Is throbbing through the veins of the country, nnd Kllis will icon be known one of the most thriving and important business and commercial poiists in Ceii intl Kansas. The population of our city is about 1.200, and is vnudeup of intelligent and industrious people, who will extend the right hand of fullowship to any who may cast their lot nmong u. Surrounded as we arc by the finest agricultural and stock country in the stnte, we must boom.

Ellis is the central division of the Kansas Pacific Railroad, the roost important division on the road. It is the house batwten Kansas City and Denver. The railroad oompany have chosen Ellis on accsunt of its central location as well as its natural advantages as the locution for its works. Combine the railroad influence witn the. agricultural and stock development, then take into consideration the fact that the country for thirty miles both north and south is tributary to the city, that this country is as fertile as any in the state and is baintr rapidly opened up, and WP think we have reason to belicvo that Ellii is destined to lift one of the best points in Central Kansas.

It la well to rememispe ajso that the country from Brookville to Denver, 441 miles indirectly contributes to the business and prosperity of Ellis. Forastheoouutry is opened up and developed the business of the road increases, in a like measure does the shops of the road at this place and the importance of Ellis as the end of the division inc rease. There are some flne residencots is HIGHLAND ADDITION and bnsl-lots in the city which can now be bought at low figures and which are increasing rapidly ip value. He tout could not bo satisfied In Ellis would grumble at paradise. Then come grasp the goldenj opportunity and buy a home ot bust' cess in boautiful hoaltby Ellis.

lent character oi' our people, our schools and churches and colleges, together with the spirit of enterprise aitsl progress manifested ou every hand point to Kansas as the most location for the order loving aud intelligent man who desires to better his condition. The Kansas boom rests ou a solid basis, and il only needs a personal Inspection to make it apparent. Come and see us by all means. We are willing to stand pr fall by the result. Dr.

Newman, ia hij lecture before the Chautauqua tocjaty at Topeka, took some pride in believing that -woman would have a two third majority iu heaven. He is reported as saying: 'J have bo patience with these indq! snobs. They say two-thirds of the membership o-rhurcbes consists of women. Well, what of it? If the membership on earth is two thirds women and one-third men, then the membership of heaven will be two-ihirds women one-third men. If this be true then the population of hell must be two thirds men pd one-third According to the doctor's picture the Inducements for men to go perdition are not brilliant nnd C.

Every! i t-yts ore turned toward Kaiitm, Ed tLsy never grow weary lister. it tu the reports of otir wonderful crnpj aud uuparalleled growth and prosperity. Kausas this year will have the largest corn crop it has ever raised, and with the oxception of tho wheat crop, all ils other crops will be proportionately good, Thk Chicago Inter Ocean says; A Taxes judge, by the name of Cook, don't seem to like Kansas people.

He says, they go to the hotbed of New England for their isms, to John Brown for their religion, bind tho Bible and a Sharp's rifle in the same and will go to boll for their meanness.5' But there is hope for Texas yet. Tho schoolmaster is abroad in Texas, the state is aroused to the subject of temperance, and when the stata has educated, sober judges, they will not be heard uttering such calumnies. The following tough one came from Indianapolis last week: A novel sight was witnessed yesterday as the result qf the high temperature of the past three weeks. Borne time ago a firm received a consignment of eggs packed in boxes after the usual manner. Tjho eggs were placed io storago and yesterday morning the consignee had occasion to open case.

Whten the lid was ra mpyed the low call of chicks sounded in bis ears. One entko layer of eggs was found to be hatching out and iu a few minutes after the eggs were brought to light, fifteen well developed "or' phaps" picked their way through tho shells. Auother layer of eggs began to hatch out about noon, and it now looks as through the entire woyld batch.
