There is something of truth and much of exaggeration in this paragraph, It is true that vice-president ial successions have invariably caused party disappointments, and that, failing to head parties of their own, such successors have not been wholly indorsed by tho opposition, but it is not true that auv one of the men named went to his grave covered with contempt, Andrew Johnson became a Senator, and died otllce.

For a paper published upon the frontier, the Advanck is a marvel in the quantity and quality' of its reading matter, and in typographical tion and we acknowledge that to be able to do this honorably is our highest aim. These broad prairies were intended for a dense population; of this we have abundant proof, which is the 'rich soil, the wealth of grasses the running streams of pure water, the abundance of everything that can be used for the comfort and ad vantage of man.

The time will come when every quarter section in tin's and adjoining counties will be occupied by a prosperous fanner and (his time, in our muiiblo opinion, is not far distant. To be able to render aid in this building up process which is now goin on is why we Liive selected this field of operation. Wo l'eol that our work here in the interest of the soil will repay the many who chose Jo locale here and while for the time being we work and wait, the time will come when journalism, near the one hundrcth Meridian, will be more remunerative than now.
