The Sylvan Grove SENTINEL says: "The Salina Gazette evidently don't think much of that meteoric body known as the Kansas legislature." Did you ever hear of people swapping themselves off for a "yaller dorg," "and then shooting the "dorg." -Salina Gazette.

It reaches Sylvan twentyfour hours ahead of all other dailies. Elsewhere in this week's SENTINEL will be found the schedule agreed upon by the trustees as a basis for assessing property. It is much lower than last year.

Three families from Washington county, who had purchased farms in this locality, arrived here on Thursday morning to take possession of them.

Rev.

B. F. McMillan held services in the church edifice on Sunday. He is an earnest laborer in the Vineyard, and the community would be greatly benefitted if arrangements could be made to have him hold Divine services in this town every Sunday. A little effort in this direction would undoubtedly be crowned with success.

-Lucas Advance. Ino. Duell, trustee of Elkborn township, J. P. Webb, of Colorado township, and J.

R. Wolford, tee of Indiana township, under instructions from the county commiesioners last Tuesday inspected the land which it is claimed is assessed too high. They will report to the county commissioners, who will probably act in the matter in accordance with their suggestions. Once in a while you find an eastern paper that is willing to tell facts about Kansas. Read what the New York World says, in a late issue: Kansas is the poor man's home.

She is a little over 25 years old, and more people have risen from poverty to affluence within that short time, than in any other State of our Union.
