Ever3' day some tramps are in the citr and yet farmers are trying to get hands at one dollar a day and board.

The Haven Item, which has always posed as an independent paper, has flopped over to the Demo-Pops and is a regular 'calamity howler'' now. It publishes everything it can get hold of that is against the. Republican party. There is but little doubt but the editor ha3 been seen by some reformer and fixed. 1 be Methodist church at Lyons lost its pastor by him making a visit to California and then sending In his resignation.

Now they are trying to get Rev. Pollard up there. He is opposed to go ing but will have to submit to the dic tates of the Eldei whatever that is. We hope he will not be removed from this chatge. Remember that taxes fall due Xovcm ber 1st of each year.

The weather report for the month of September as observed at the Agricul turai college is as follows: "An ex ceedingly hot, windy mouth, with but little moisture. The period extending from the 9th to 2lst was the hottest of the season, and has never been equalled during the month of September in tho last thirtyeight years. ill Labrue, of Grant township, is making arrangements to feed six thous and head of sheep this winter.

He has plenty of hay and corn, but will have to erect another wind mill in order to en sure plenty of water for them, one mill not being sufficient.

Mr. Snyder's mare, as she won two races in one week, and took second money in another, all this with very little previous work and it being the first time she ever faced a starter. Morgan took charge of the Daily and Weekly News Saturday af teruoou as proprietor, editor and busi ness manager. Never in our lives have we seen so many people in Reno county who were so dissatisfied with the man agement of a paper as the people of this county have been with the tnanagemen of the News by the Sponsler Brothers. They had the ability to have made a much better paper and one that upheld the business, moral and educational interests of the county than the News did.

It is a good thing for the people and a good thing for Sponsler Brothers that they sold out. The explanation of the Gazette is not correct. The bid of the Gazette would not have saved the county 500 nor half that amount. For 15 years the county never paid for publishing the commissioners proceedings until these reformers (), Foster got the county printing. Again we say, that if anything was illegal about letting the contract, Mr.

McElwain could have prevented it. He did not insist on any other arrangement. As we understand it, the Interior-Herald was to do 20 per cent of the work. If that paper made any arrangements with the. News to do its share of the work, that is another matter.

But we don't want the Gazette to pretend, in face of the facts, that it was working for economy, when its whole history is again. it. of 9 be or the Million Club, will be left at No. east Sherman street, where a man will found to take charge of anything which may be left.

Now is the time, let us improve the opportunity. We receive a good many complaints from our subscribsrs in Hutchinson about not getting the Argosy until the Mon day or Tuesdcy following its publica tion on Thursday. We are satisfied that the trouble is not in the post oflice here.

The paper is mailed every Thurs day afternoon and is sent out that even ing or Friday morning, but tne P. M. at Hutchinson, through the measly Democrat, tried to do the Argosy dirt, was set down on by the Department at Washington. But we believe he is still trying to cause us trouble through the same outfit. It the matter is not stopped we will see what can bJ done by the post oflice department.

On Fric'ay night Oct. 18, "In Old Ten nessee will give one performance at the Opera House. The company consists of 40 people carrying their owu special scenery, ncanniny mnu oi pieces, Dark Town Drum Corps of 15 and travel in their own special car. Among some of the great scenic effects are the great race between the Robt. Lee and Natches, a real Cotton Gin Press in full opereatiou, a cotton Held in bloom, the negro quarters on the river, and the singing and dancing of some 30 negros, is wonderful.

These, with many more, make up the largest and most expensive company ever visiting Niekerson, and everybody wishing a real treat should go and see this per formance. Topular prices will pre vail. Watch for the big parade. The Hand of God in American His tory, was presented by Dr. baowaen Sunday evening, the third time, at the Congregational church, to a crowded bouse.

Every seat and all standlag room was tilled. The fourth lecture will be presented next fcundaf evening. lese lectures grow more interesting as they proceed. He showed that the great truth contained in the Declaration of Independence that "All men are Cre ated Equal" was utfered by the great Nazarene in his prayer, when he said, Our Father who art in Heaven," and it was this truth that guided the Pilgrim Fathers to the shores of America, where they could enjoy religious and political freedom. This great truth be ing planted in the hearts of the Tilgrim Fathers, was handed down from gener ation to generation, and spread, until religious and political liberty was es tablished in the United States.

He cit ed Mexico, where this tiuth htd not taken root, but was in the Constitution, of that Republic, yet the people there are not free like they are here, because the incubus of Romanism, which has had uudisputed sway in that country for centuries, retards the growth of re ligious and political liberty. The people of a country must think and act for themselves before they can be free, no difference how much of it they may have in their constitution. He believes we are on the eve of great reforms In this country, one of which will wipe out the saloon, which is a curse to any country. Those who did not know how he stood upon the joint qti3stion, and the violation of law and the trampling under foot of the Constitution, know now that he is on the right side. Our country has prospered just in proportion to its adherence to the truth as found in tbe Declaration of Independence, was proven.

Go and hear him. He will give you something to think about OBITUARY. Mrs. Josephine Shaw, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

J. M. Dennison, of Ohio, was born in Tuscarawas county, Ohio, Aug. 22nd, 1S5G, and died in Niekerson Kansas, Wednesday, Sept. 25th, at 3:20 p.

in. She grew to womanhood in Ohio and was married to Mr. Wra. Shaw in Caushton county, Ohio, Sept 27th 1S77. In '73 they emigrated to Iowa and irom thence to Kansas in '86 settling in Niekerson, which has been their home since.

Six children were born to them, one having preceded the mother to the bet ter land, leaving five, Robt. narry, Bertha, Jesse and little Helen, only five years of age. Mrs, Shaw was one of seven sisters, their mother dying last winter. She was converted at Mohawk Valley, Ohio, in 1879 and ever after remained a Christian. She united with the Methodist church in Ohio, bringing her membership to the west, uniting with the church here and remained with it to the time of her death, a consistent member.

She was also a respected member of Queen Ann Lodge, Daughters of Re-bekah, who proved themselves sisters indeed during her sickness and death. She was stricken with typhoid fever on Tuesday, Sept. 17th, and grew rapidly worse in spite of all physicians and loving friends could do; 6he sank into the arms of death. The day before she died she said to her husband, "I will be with you today but tomorrow I am going home." So passed lrom us a Christian wife, deyoted mother and kind neighbor, leaving her motherless children to the care of her Heavenly Father whom she had loved all her life. The funeral was conducted at the M.

E. church, Sept. 26th, by her pastor, Rev. E. C.

Pollard, and with the beautiful service of the Daughters of Rebekah, her form was laid to rest in Wildmead Cemetery. EXCURSION. There will be an excursion, via Little Rock, to Galveston, Texes, on or about Nov. 1st. Parties desiring to make the trip and see the big Prize Fight, should address L.
