Stewart, Mr. John Hinnen, and Miss Clara H. Hockham. The Federal extends congratulations to the happy pair. Mr.

Hinnen is a printer and a straight and square man. He baa grown up in Holton dependent upon his own industry and has saved a snug little sum with which to bepin housekeeping and what is better, has an accumulated capital of reputation for personal worth. The bride is a daughter of Mrs. Dr. Nichols and has been accounted a Drize worth angling for by marriagable men since girlhood.

Her engagement with the man she has now made happy dates back at least three years. It is understood that Mr. and Mrs. Hinnen will enter upon housekeeping in Holton, and that "John" will for a time pursue his accustomed avocation.

R. Peters said "In 1884, the Kansas congressional delegation secured the passage of a law, authorizing the president to appoint three commissioners to negotiate with the Indians and secure from them entire release of any claims they might have to certain lands in the territory uuder the treaties of 1866. This law hs been steadily and deliberately ignored by Cleveland and his administration, i do not believe it necessary to consult the Indians before opening this territory for settlement, but am satisfied from my observation and knowledge in politics and legislation, that it cannot be opened without some provision of that kind. I shall favor in the next congress the passage of a bill similar to that which was reported in the last congress from the committee on territories, and known as the Oklahoma bill. I shall do everything I can to secure its passage, but will state frankly that I do not believe its passage can be secured in the next congress, and certainly not before a year from ext January or February.

Should it be passed and to the executive mansion, I have but little doubt at present, that it wonld meet with a veto. The president in the meantime may receive new information or be influenced by different motives and persons, as he has been in the past. His failure to approve or even to consider the bill known as "No Man's Land" bill, the passage of which 1 had the honor to seenre, indicated very strongly what influences were at work to prevent any legislation affecting the future ot this territory. Should tho same parties continue to have the ear of the president, no legislation effecj-SfHT this section refV.rrca ta can receive bis sanction during the present admin istration. were received.

There was only room to crowd in the portion relating to lee tures for the week. Something to Investigate. About four weeks ago A. E. Baker procured samples of the water of the several springs on G.

M. Squires' farm north of this city. Each bottle full has distinct characteristics, in smell and taste. There is one bottle full which has, since it has been inTHK Federal office; turned black, and now has a sediment in it It now smells like water which has been used to clean a foul shot gun. Decoration Dy.

After the public had given up expectations of public services at Holton. and after it was too late to be announced in the city papers Will Wen-dall post arranged for such services. At 2:30 p. m. tho band ana drum corps called tho post and people to.

gether in the court house pai k. After music Post Commander Crawford called for the reading ot the order of the department commander relating to observance of the day, and after prayer by Chaplain Taber, Commander Crawford addressed the post and citi zens. The procession was then formed under the direction of Comrade Beck acting as marshall of the day. The procession was a long one. It proceeded to the cemetery where the usual ceremonies of decoration of craves were performed.

The day was delightfully cool, with a stiff breeze from toe north. If any of our readers have friends in the east who are desirous of visiting Kansas this summer they should be encouraged to make the trip. A great deal of misconception and misunder standing is current in eastern states in regard to the Kansas boom. Local pa pers, alarmed at the removal of large numbers of the most substantial and useful members ot their respective communities have industriously dis seminated and fostered the belief that the Kansas boom was principally wind, and destined to collapse at an early day. All that is needed to convince an intelligent person of the falsity of this belief is for him to spend a week or two in the state.

iJven the most thickly settled portions of Kansas are sparsely populated as compared with many of the older states, and immi gration is sure to continue steadily and in increasing volume nntil we have five or six millions of people. If one thing rejoices us more than another it is the character of the people who are coming among us: Very few of the anarchists, socialists and plug-uglies from the slums of Europe so loudly complained of in the Atlantic states find their way to Kansas. The great bulk of the influx is com posed of moderately well-to-do people from the older states who are shrewd enough to see the immense advantages of the country. The result of all this is just as inevitable as any result of the laws of nature, The value of all real property will continue to advance as the density of population increases. The high standard of intelligence, the excellent character of our people, our schools and churches and colleges, to gether with the spirit of enterprise and progress manifested on every hand, point to Kansas as the most desirable location for order lovinz and intelligent man who desires to his condition, lhe Kansas boom rests on a solid and it only needs a personal inspection to make it apparent Come and see us by all mean.

We are willing to stand or'fall by the result. bovs. You will be better satished with yourselves for doing so. There are eight candidates for sheriff already. Two at Whiting, three at Holton, two in Cedar township and R.

B. Francis, on the line of Grant and Soldier townships. The Fostofflce Robbery. Last Friday night the Holton post-office was entered and robbed. The robbers entered by a rear window and walked out of the rear door.

They left several tools which have been identified as belonging in two different shops in town. There are a heavy monkey wrench, two chisels, a screw driver, a brace and bit. The particular tool used to drill into the safe was not left behind. A hole was drilled so as to tap the lock of the safe just at the right spot to apply power to parts of the lock and break it. About two hundred and twenty-five dollars in cash and stamps were taken from the safe.

This is all that is missing. A package of registered letters in the safe was not disturbed, nor the stamps and change in the stamp drawers in the office outside of the safe. Neither was mail matter touched. LIST OF SOLDIERS OF THK UNION BVB1K0 IN HOLTON CEMETERY. We are indebted to Geo.

H. Barker adjutant of Will Wendel Post G. A. R. for the following list of soldiers buried in the Holton cemetery.
