P. Baden, Winlield, Kansas. Winfield's Prospects. Never in the history of the past have the prospects for future greatness been apparent as at the present time. Win lield lias always been noted fo the progressive spirit that characterizes her people, and to this spirit is largely due our present standing and future assurances.

Public enterprises have knocked at our door and our cit izens have worked earn estly and faithfully until now we point with pride to what has already been accomplished toward substantial progress, and realize that we are just on the eve an unprecedented boom. Besides many other ad vantages that contribute toward making this a large and prosperous city, the completion of the lines of railroads already assured will give Winfield a prestige as a- railroad center and establish her as the greatest commercial city of the Southwest. That a great city will be built up Southern Kansas, no one will deny; the only question is shall it be Winfield Wichita? The above-named sister city has for a time taken the lead as to population, but in substantial progress has been far distanced by the Queen City. The coining season will witness thi largest immigration to Southern Kansas ever before known, and they are bound to follow up the inducements offered in a beaut itul and prosperous city, destined to eclipse any other in Southern Kansas. Already the boom has commenced by busy preparations for building on every hand, and since the breaking up of winter, our mechanics have been busy cleaning up the unfinished -vork of last fall, aiid as the weather grows warmer new buildings will spring up all over the city to meet the demand for houses, and as aj-onse-quenc3 0ur mechanics will find steady employment at good wages, while property holders will realize big money on their investments.

Despite the protests of would-be rivals. Winfield is destined to become the future great city of the southwest. Eastern capitalists arc watching with eager eyes the events that tend to in spire commence, and as one Ovone nese unfold to view, the confidence of capital inspired and will soon be made apparent in the establishment of manufacturing and commercial enterprises. But our citizens must not tola their arms and await the result, but go to work with will to advance our city's inteicst by encouraging every legitimate enter ju ise, and the result will be a continued boom and abundant prosjwrity.

A. 1. Turner stopped off at this city to see his numerous patients. The doctor says it is astonishing to see the number of unfortunate beings who called upon him during his visit to the city, many of them coming a long distance, and while a number of them returned home with the assurance that nothing short of death could give them relief, the majority left with a guarantee that -they would receive speedy relief and an ultimate cure, and his great success in our midst is suilicient to cause us to have the profoundost confidence in him as a physician. On our streets we daily meet 'those who were but a short time since, human wrecks victims of diseases which had for years ballled the best TTrtdical faculty of the country, but under his skillful treatment they "have been rejuvenated and never tire of talking about this wonderful man.

If any of -our readers are suffering from any old chronic disease they should at once consult the doctor, and if he says he can cure you, you may rest assured' that he will bring about the happv result. C'rr-twh Chief. To The Public. We have come to Winfield and opened it nice large stock of Boots and shoes in Zook's old stand. We are not goods at cost, but will sell them at a very small prolit.

Purvince and wife, of King City, relatives of oqr II. C. Kellison, went up to Atlanta on business. They have been in Winlield some weeks and will probably locate here. Property is beginning to change hands, some buying for speculation, others for homes.

There will be big money in real estate investments this season as there has always been in the past. S. llolloway's white horse took fright on Sunday morning and broke loose from the Jbuggy and cut up various capers. One would think theokl white horse had gotten over all such pranks. There are lots of farms in the market to trade for Winlield property.

This is no doubt due to the failure in many cases to get good crops, and also to the desirability of owning a home in our prosperous city. The stone masons and mechanics are happy. Plenty of work at good prices is their watch-word when spring opens. This coming year is no exception to the rule. But, on the contrary, everything looks bright and prosperous.

The Farmer's Kcstaurant changed hands last Saturday and Mr. John Frost is now the sole proprietor, his long experience i the business will be sure to bring him a good trade, and for once we will wish "Jack Frost" success. J. C. Bradahaw closed hi; school in District No.

Our merchants are enterprising and awake, and will be ready to supply tin; demand with goods of all kinds in endless variety.

Prof. Limerick got. in Saturday from Topeka, having staid by the hill increas ing the salary ottxiuntyMiperintendents to 1.200, until it passed the House which it did by a big majority, there being only seven dissenting votes. The vote in the Senate will be almost unanimous. Last Saturday as a busy day in the citv.

he farmers who nad been housed up waiting for the roads to improve, took advantage of the fine, balmy weather to lrive to the city. 1 lie streets were thronged with crowds ol people until late in the evening. We had tiie pleasure of tuvisit with Dr. A. P.

Turner on the train east some days since. Wo find him an agreeable gentleman, and from all accounts the doctor is having a remarkably successful practice through Southern Kansas. Mr. II. Ivewcome of deuda Springs was here on ednesdav lor the purpose of placing an order for tn omnibus with Abbott isistiop our carnage men.

Smith's Swiss Bell Ringers drew god houses last Friday and Saturday nights and gave good satisfaction. The musical glass performance and lady cornetists drew forth the most praise. The comic part was calculated to draw a smile from the most melancholic individual.

As an evidence of the moral growth of our city, one should attend the different churches. Sabbath after Sabbath the i.kices of worship throughout the city are tilled to overflowing, and the word of God is listened to by a great many, Nothine strikes a stranger so favorably when visiting a citv as to see the houses of worship well filled. This year Lent will not commence un til March 10, ami consequently Laster will fall on he 2oth of April. It is not likely such an occurrence will happen again in five hundred years.

Faster is governed by the moon.

The forged check was written over the name of T. Stinson and called for $15.00, which, after paying for the goods left some change in his favor which he pocketed and struck out with the above result. It now appears that this same young man tried to sell a note at the Winfield Bank signed by T. Stinson and J. M.

Strangers coming to Winfield often make the remark that they are very much surprised at the handsome business blocks and residences to be seen all over the city. Winfield is certainly far ahead of many towns of like size in the east. But there is one thing the council should provide fir, and. that is the cleaning of the streets, particularly Main street, livery merchant should be required to sweep the gutter in front of his place of business every Friday evening and tiie city should provide fur hauling oil the dirt thin accumulated every Saturday morning, thereby keeping the streets comparatively clean.
