Th'ey go by the Southern Pacific and will probably return via the Pacific Ocean, Portland Oregon, and the Northern Pacific. Parties wishing to buy or sell prop erty in the south part of the county can not do bettci than to call on or address Wallace Young, Savonburg, Kansas. Mr. Young also loans money at the cry lowest rates or interest. We hone everybody in the county will take note of the fact that flour can be bought in Iola 50 and GO cents cheaper on the hundred than at any other place in the county.

This difference is wortli coming some little dis tance for. We neglected to mention last week a pleasant surprise to Airs. z. u. Eckley by a few friends on the occasion of her birthday.

Such reminders of the milestones we pass so rapidly through life are tne source oi many kind thoughts. With thej unanimity for which they are noted the small bojs about town have all gone into the peanut business this week and the streets are literally strewn with the small tables and boxes where the unfortunate passer by is importuned to buy "peanuts for five." The Union aud Inlcr-Stalc have just "caught on" and published in tneir last wecK's issue menouceoi Guilliland that she would apply for a pardon for Hugh and Isaac Guilliland. The Register pulbishcd and commented on this notice five weeks ago. We want to make a prediction ami wo ill waper a toothpick, thatonr gacs is within fiftv of beinsr correct. Here It is.

"llcntonwill be elected bj 25 1 majority. Democrat. How a man witn a lamny on nis hands can permit himself to indulge in such reckless gambling, is hard to understand. The Register furnished- its readers last week with the result of the Republican State Contention. The Union, which went to press a day later, said it "has not jtet learned who was nominated," and its readers will not learn until to-morrow what the Stale ticket is.

The Union is a great paper. The editor of a certain paper in Iola not the Register was seen striding along the east side of the square last Sunday afternoon with each hand firmly grasping the neck of a long black bottle. Did the bottles contain a sample of the "ice-water" with which the citizens of Humboldt so generously refreshed the democratic convention? Gummings Jones can and do loan money on the cheapest and best terms. Why? 1st. They own the best set of abstract books in the county, xl.

They give the best optional payments before maturity. 3d. They charge no commissions. 4th. They pay tho borrower the proceeds or his loan upon comple tion of the papers.

Call and see Cum- mingn Jones. Mr.P.O.Daughters,blacksmUh'atthe Carriage Works, received a telegram Tuesday telling him that the ticket in the Louisiana Lottery, in which he owned a fifth interest, had drawn a prize of $25,090. Mr. Daughters has not yet received the money and intends to hold down his job of pounding iron until he is certain of it. Lightning does sometimes striKe.

We have received a pamphlet from the State Agricultural College giving an account or the experiments conducted during the past year on the farm and stock yards of that institution. Farmers and stockraiscrs will doubtless find in tbis volume many valuable hints and suggestions. A copy will be sent rree on application to l'rof. j. M.

Shetton, Manhattan, Kan. From the best estimates we cau get it seems that the average quantity of neer rurnisneu to tne delegates at ine Humboldt convention was about six bottles to the man. And this is the outfit (if our friend Gordon can spare the word long enough for us to get it in type) that "looks to the spirit and genius of the democratic party for the settlement of the exed question of sumptuary ana sanitary laws!" We were busy in court three days last week anil overlooked several Important events Do not feel oflended If we overlooked or failed to publish soma Items of news la whlci you were interested Caurant. They are never offended at anything of that kind, Johnnie. They simply wait.till the Register comes out for they know it never overlooks any thing.

And when we say "never," we don't want any two-for-a-nickle mugwump up in the peanut gallery to rise up and say "uaraiy ever." D'ye hear? While rcturnlug home from one of tne neighbor's last Friday night, Allen uiyant in some mysterious way received a blow on the head from which he lay unconcious for a long time and was finally found wandering aliout in a half dazed condition by members of nis lamuy. iir. w. v. Scott was sent for and dressed the wound.

Mr. Bryant thinks the blow came from some one who attacked him for the purpose of robbing him. The Hotrlcultural Society had an interesting meeting at tho court house on Saturday last. A committee was arrange for making an ex- nioition or mat at jjisniarK tins rail, and at the National Association at Cleveland, Ohio. Steps ore being taken by the society to purchase a book on horticulture.

Boquets of flowers were exhibited by Mrs. Pancoast and Mrs. Groesbeck, and some fruit also was on exhibition. Any one who may have been of the opinion that Dr. LaFary had only located here temporarily, would certainly hae his mind disabused of the idea if he would visit him at his new rooms over Richards Henderson's.

After going to so much, expense to fit up elegant and comfortable rooms, and after building up the fine practice that he now Doctor would certainly be foolish to leave it all and begin at the bottom somewnerc else. It never gets so bad in Kansas that it is not worse somewhere else. WeZhave had some rather warm weather here the past two weeks but up Dacotah and Minnesota they have had a regular simoon, people awaking in the night with the air so hot and stifling that they think their houses on fire. And that in States where it gets cold enough in winter to rreeze tne nair on a dog's uacK. may with Kansas a while longer.

Ilcforc you award that medal wc would ailt isu you to have a committee appointed to look ovir the lilts of the ItEoisntn. Democrat. It would certainly bo in bad taste to compete for our own prize; nevertheless the "files of the Register" are open for inspection. And hope the Democrat will be on tho committee, in order that it may be introduced to the plain, unvarnished, iron-clad Truth. We fear it would not recog nise it now if it should meet it on the street.

We had thought that Waters Thayer already had eery sort of machine that could be Useful in any way In manufacture ol Hour; but on visiting their mill the other day we found they had put in still another. This Is tho "Garden. City Brush Scalper" and is a machine in vhich the wheat grain is brushed after being cracked, cleaning it of all the "crease The remit of the introduction of this machine is to make the flour much purer and whiter. Tho democrats of Allen county who lit onto prohibition with all four feet last year, now touch it gingerly under the name of "sumptuary and sanitary laws" for the settlement of which they look to the "spirit and genius of the democratic party." In about four years from now, when prohibition shall havebecome such a settled fact that every body else has forgotten about it, they will split their throats yelling for "enforcement of the law." The democratic party in Allen county, like Art-mus Ward's monkey, is "an amoosin' little cuss." Mr. West received this week a letter which has a decided interest aside from its from tho fact that it had lain at the bottom of the ocean for four months.

On the back of it was pasted a slip of paper on which was printed the following; x.u. -ew lonK.juij ic This piece is a portion of the mall fomanUd oni Uuocnstown. Ireland. wr'BtLomer Okk- on, on March 7th, damaged by the sinking: of that vessel off Fire Island on March 11th. lie covered from the wreck 1-4.

IIKNTIT "KAUBOV, 1'OSllUaSlcr. The letter had been carefully dried and was perfectly legible. We call the attention of the bread eating public to the new advertisement of Waters Thayer. As you will no tice this lirni has again reduced tne price of flour. This fact alone hould secure them a liberal patronage to say nothing of the fact that their flour is always fresh and of a better average quality than any you can buyelse- wnere: aio.

mat mey area nonie in stitution that always pay the highest cash price for grain and have always given you a steady and reliable market. When you want fresh flour, feed or coal cheat), go to the mill or leave or ders at Whitaker's. Mr. A. H.

Knox, ot Humboldt, was in town Tuesday to get out an injunction against the Leaguer who was trying to take forcible possession of a piece of land owned by Judge Knox. The land has been and is occupied by a tenant, who has 80 acres under cultivation. The Leaguer cut through the hedge and built his shanty in a field of oats. The tenant and Mr. Knox tore it down and hauled it away.

The Leaguer put up another which was treated the same way. Tho Leaguer then started a third one and Mr. Knox finally came to get an order from the court to restrain him from entering upon the place. This is the kind of outrage we may look for until our representatives are compelled to do something. The Courant is entirely mistaken in supposing that the resolutions of the convention last Saturday "will not please Scott of the Register." They please him entirely.

They are exactly the compound of vainglory, buncombe, lies, hypocrisy, cant, evasiveness, bad grammar and idiocy that he expected they would be, and he would have been greatly disappointed if they had been of a different nature. The Courant thinks also that "republicans resolute sometimes in a manner not pleas, ing to Scott, especially was this so when the late republican county con- vjinftnn fnfitrrtnfofl fevr Oft again, dear brother. If those resolutions were not "pleasing to Scott" it was his own fault for he wrote them, and he is not in the habit of writing anything that does not at least please himself. And we presume tlds last remark will sufficiently answer the insinuation that tho "aforesaid Scott" predicted that the delegates from Allen county would go to Ottawa uuiu-structed. He would hae been but a "fool and blind" who would hate made such prediction.

OF ALL COMPETITORS, MD IEEE IE STAY! SOLID PILLS SWALLOW WE own the for. Our Goods than you will find elsewhere. WE can sell because we know how to buy them. WE do not buy long time, but pay cash for every dollar's worth of goods as soon as received and get the cash discount. Every day is right and the people appreciate them.

It as always been the pride of -the Reci- istei: tint it treited its political opponents with fairness and courtesy and that its as-ertions concerning them, a- well as all its other assertions, were made up of solid chunks of rockribbed, eerlasting truth.
