RAILEOAD TIMB CARD VVlieii coming to Grinuell do not fail to rente ruber that vou will find ft a lirtet-elasH stopping place at HNTHftSn AT TUB POST OFH-ICn A'l' mm 3 ism III 1 13. E. The champion liar of northwest Kansas evidently lives not very fat 'from Grain tield. The Cap Slu-af ol Saturday last states that the Setitine' of the previous week claimed that Rock Springs coal could bo bought in Grinnell and Buffalo Park foi $5,50 per ton. The Sentinel claimed nothing of the kind, but it did say that kind of coal could be had in those two towns per ton.

The Cap Sheaf in another column" refers to Kansas with its 1,500,000 people as the most populas state in the Union, Great Jehosaphat! Does that paper regard all of its few readers as either knave or fools? IlO'xie Sentinel. There yon will find clean beds, large, airy hri'lroom, nice offiep, cozy parlors, convenient sample rooms, and every thing that goes to make one feel comfortable. Don't frill to stop whore CHAHGES AllE HEASONABLE. S0VTH OF DEPO ON ADAMS STREET, 0R1K1IEL, KANBAB, BAN IEL LAND a WESTWARD In one of our eastern cities wo see standing a long train of passenger coaches attached to a strong, stout swift wheel locomotive. The engineer is watching the steam while the lirenian is heaping more coal into the blazing furnace.

Croiv.ds of sturdy looking young, middle aged and perchance aged men with their fitmihcs, with valises, paper boxes and packages of all descriptions, are wending their way toward the train and getting on. Here, amid the push and throng to get on before the train starts, we see touching scenes; the devoted mother bidding adieu fa her devoted son; the brother to brother; the sister to sister; and thus of all the family tits. Soon all is ready, the conductor pulls the bell, toot, toot, signals to start, and as the smoke rolls in clouds from the great iron steed they speed Oul of sight. Those who had come to ho depo to bid adieu to their friends return to their homes often sad and heavyheftrted, bnt the train that bears their friends away is speeding on and on westward, while the minds of the pilgrims, though pleased with the ever-changing Scenery brought to view as they swiftly glide along, wandering back to friends they have parted with; but withal, they are filled with bright hopes, the prospect of gaining independence and. free homes, h'omes 'that are un IT A Deeded Lands, Churns and liclinquLshmoiits For Locates Railway Lands and Contests the isaji 'through the Land Department.

While business in Grirlnell if nothing to be compared with what is expected in the spring, yet not 'a merchant here can complain of the trade they arc having. Wo have stores well tilled with good that are selling at prices astonishingly low, We have accommodating merchants who wait upon customers with pleasure, and their low prices bring them much trade.

Grinnell of to-day cannot be compared with Grinnell of a year ago. Numerous requests for sample copies of Belt are received at this office. Many are thinkingof coming west soon, and are making tip their minds where to go according to the inducements offered through, the newspapers. Now is the proper time to advertise, our. town, and each 'should consider l.t his duty to help as much as he can.

One good newspaper docs more to advertise a town than three or four stores will. Let us offer oar inducements now before it is too late. The man who places a dollar advertisement in his local paper and flatters himself thai he is a liberal ulvertiser, will be surprised to learn that a yearly advertisement, one column in length, in the Chicago Tri-'iiine, costs the advertiser The New York Herald receives for its lowest price column $39,008, and for ils highest $48,000. The New York Tribune for its lowest 829.754, ind those papers it is stated, are never at a loss for advertisements to till their eolmns. The fact, is that liberal advertising pays.

It is stated that a Nemaha coun-y man proposes an amendment to ho prohibitary lawj obliging to place on a bulletin board he names of all those Who have liquor there during the lay, and that a duplicate list be veil, to the papers for publication. The Neheni'i county man might have id Jed that; druggists should place on dicii; lists samples purchased, whether lloek, arid Rye, llostetter's, dro.wnX or Soothing. Syrup! "A any other name smells just is Ex. One thing we would urge iipon our people, and that is sociability, Keep the social circles perfect.

Nothing attracts a stranger, quicker than to find that the town he enters is made, up of people who are friendly toward one. another, and who can take him by the hand and introduce him into good Churches aref becoming necessity the prosperity: of oUr westerli-towns. To show the average stranger, good church organization is speaking innch -a town, A dollar spent toward keeping up or building a church is worth five spent in many other wavs. Here is a. sample of the many letters Belt receives almost tlsiily Red Oak, Iowa, Jan.
