Wellington is the southern and western terminus of the Southern Kansas li. and the great Kock Island and Santa Fc systems, enter and pass through the city, givfng an i outlet in every direction for tlte agri-. cultural products of the county, and manufactured articles uf the city.

The hotel accommodations are i ample and first-class in every re-i spect. A commodious and finely ap- pointed opera house attracts tht best concert companies and troupes on the road, so that the people can enjoy high class intellectual treats and amusements. 1 While almost all branches of husi-j ness are represented and successfully 1 carried on here, there is still room for more, and especially in the line of manufacturing in almost any of its branches Wellington offers superior inducements and advantages over other western cities for their establishment here. A fruit and vegetable canning establishment, a cracker and candy factory, a sorghum sugar manufactory, a paper milL, a boot and shoe manufactory, a clothing manufactory, novelty machine works, would all find a lucrative market for their output in the country surrounding, and would prove paying investments for eastern capital, r.

Wellington, the county seat of Sutnner county, the iient and inoHt productive county the great istato ui Kanwaw, in HituatecJ very nearly in the centre of tiiiH fsrand county, and in, hei efore, Hiirroiinduii by a body of an Hue farming land, rh the Hunever ahone upon. The ground upon which the city in located weeimt to have I teen ordered and coiiHtruct ed hy a beneficent Providence wulely for the location of a great metropolitan city, it wlopes gently from the centre in every direction and thenat-ural drainage of the city in wiinply perfect, livery dwelling can have a perfectly dry cellar and good cintcrn, advantage! powweHtsed ho extennively by but few cities in a coinparatively level country. The city in laid oiit on a liberal Hcale, with broad MtreetH and avenue running north and nouth and eunt and went. Her principal Htreetti are all graded and have uniform wide-walkw, twelve feet wide, of Haghtone and cement, with frtone crosHingH. The gutters along the nidea of the Btreetn ai-e of HagMtone, and after a ra in or when Hooded by the h.ydrantx, glisten in the huh light like marble.

PUBLIC BUIl.DINGB. Few cities of twice her size can boa.Ht as fine, or an many, public building, Her large Htone court house, all paid for, would be a credit to any city of 50,000 population. Her four tine brick school houses will compare fa vorably with those of far more pretentious cities. Her church buildings a re also commodious and nightly edifices. The Methodist outurown their old building are just now completing, at ifccost of about $25,000, a magnificent structure, that would" be a credit to any city.

Her bank two and three story marble, stne nnc). brick blocks, with plate', glass fronts, of diversified architecture, Tery pleading to the eye, cannot be surpassed in any city Vof twice her size, It is said that there! are more single pane plate glass fronts in the city Wellington than are to be found in any city of the same population in.the United States. She.has neaf sfx miles of streetcar track running north south, east and west from her business centre, and the service is of the teet. In tl way of light she is awny in the leadw, She has two electric light plants, the Excelsior and Thompson-Houston systems, furnishing for a small monthly consideration arc lights of 2,200 candle which light up her business streets and houses brilliantly as thenoon-day sun, while for the more remote streets and residences the finest gas plant in the west furnishes a superior quality of gas at a moderate cost. She has an elaborate system of water-works with miles upon miles of mains and innumerable hydrants and tire-plugs, furnishing an abundance of pure water and ample protection from fire.

Also a well equipped and well-oC-Icered fire department. She has a telephone exchange, liberally supported, which, besides connecting nearly all offices and business houses in the city, puts her citizens in connection with nearly every city or village in the county, as Sumner county, the banner agricultural county of the great state of Kansas, is, in the language of one ot the most intelligent and observing of the early settlers, one of the southern tiers of counties, and near the center of the state east and west. In extent it is thirty-three miles from north to south, and thirty-six miles from east to west. Its territory lies mainly west of the Arkansas river, and is bounded on the north by Sedgwick county, on the east by Cow-, ley county, on the south by the Indian territory, and on the west by Harper and Kingman counties. The county is splendidly watered by the 'Arkansas, Chikaskia and Kinnescah rivers, Cowskin, Slate.

Shoo Fly, Bluff and Fall creeks, ana numerous smaller streams. These streams furninh water power for mills and manufactories and supply an abundance of stock water. Excellent springs abound also; while well water is obtained anywhere at from five to fifty feet from the surface. The water thus obtained never fails. During the drouth of .1874, when wells were few and the consequent drain upon their resources constant and heavy, not one of them showed signs of failing.

The surface of the county is undulating prairie, free from boulders or flint hills. The soil is a black, sandy loam, from eight inches to twenty- five feet in depth; twenty per cent, of it bottom land; forty pprcent.second bottom, nnd forty per cent, upland prairie. The numerous streams of the county are skirted by lieltsof timber ranging from a few rods to one and a half miles in width. Cultivated forests grow rapidly and surely. Limestone, sandstone, gypsum and other varieties of building stones abound and are easily quarried.

1 trick clay of the bestquality is found in many localities. The southwestern prrtion of the county is intcr-spersed withinniimernblesaltsprings, which yield a brine which has been demonstrated by analysis to lie the richest and purest brine found in the United States. In the same section are found the Oeuda mineral springs, which possess remarkable sanative properties. The first building within the limits ot Sumner county was a stockade ranch, erected early in 1800. The first marriage ceremony performed within the county was celebrated at KANKV KANSA 1 KANSA KAJS'HA SUMNER AN J.

LEWIS, Wellington, Kan. WHO IS UNACQUAINTED WITH THE 8KB BY Bummers and autumns, delightfully pleasant, and our winters short and mild. It is true our summers are: sometimes hot during the middle of the day but it is not that ennervat-iug heat of the eastern and northern or more southern states, and in the evening we invariably ha ve a delightful breeze which makes the night pleasant and gives refreshing sleep, enabling one to do more work with, less fatigue than anywhere else "on this continent. Come and see us investigate for yourselves, and test the truth of our assertions. this ranch in the fall of 1869.

The first town Bite in the county wan located in 1870. The first railroad constructed into the county came in 1879, and the first locomotive to enter Wellington, the county seat, came in on the 9th day of September, X879. Since that date heven othem have entered the county and traverse it in almost every direction, affording shipping facilities to nearly every neighborhood. These various roads ojerate within the county today a little less than 300 miles of road, all built within the past eight years. Among the principal roads running through the county are the grea Santa Fe, Rock Island, Mis-Kouri Frisco and Southern Kansas systems.

The population of the county has grown from a few squatters in 1870 to in 1887. The wilderness of prairie grass in 1870 has given place to well cultivated farms, fine orchards and magnificent artificial groves of timber, and the sod shanty to the comfortable dwelling houses and commodious barnsof thousands of prosperous and happy farmers, composed of the best blood, brain, and muscle of the old states; and the school house and the neat house of worship, with its spire pointing heavenward, is to be found in every township and to lie seen in every direction from every hill-top. The. wild buffalo, the antelope and the howling coyote, with the native red man, have given nla.ee to thousands of improved cattle, sheep, blooded horses a nd swine, and the lest society, with all the educational advantr ages and church privileges to befoiind in the older states awaits the settler to-day in Sumner county. Although there is now no government lands to be taken up in the county, fully one half its rich and fertile lands have never yet been tickled by the plough, nnd can lie purchased for little money.

All things considered this county offers ii r. iiitM-iii- industrious home-seeker from the east, mifierior to any county in this great state, and Kansas holds out greater inducements and advantages to the jxior man nnd the man of moderate means, as well as the capitalist, than any other state in the Union. Come out, carefully look over this lieautiful html of promise, and see if the bait has been told. KANSAS KANSAS KANSAS KANSAS COUNTY CEOCRAPHY' Of THIS COUNTRY, WILL THIS MAr, THAT I tlB E.
