and snowing the different portions
of that Land of Promise in lie style
and with eorreot delineation. It is
piblished by the Wichita Eagle of
Wichita, Kansas. The most beau-
tiful feature ef the map is the fact
that it shows the 'Frisca railroad as
ruining along tha north bank af the
Canadian River, thus coming hy

perfect jewel af accuracy.

ceed four sections. The dry land
will cost you $2 an aore. But you
mist come in persoi to the ceuñty
seat of tha county where the land
lies or le whith it is attached, if
tn an nnorgainzed county, and call
on the coiity clerk who will ahow

cation of all «sold state lands
If on looking the ground over yon

of the law and the land as may be
known to him. You will then execute
a sworn affidavit in your application
for purchase, that you want the land
for a homestead for yonrself and
that no other persei or corporation
is interested in the purchase, and
that you have in good faith actual!}^

one dollar per acre more thai the

It is with sincere regret that we
observe the fact that Senator Ste-
phens has iitroducod a bill allowing
the Commissioner's Court to post
the inaicial statements of their
comties instead ef publishing the
eame in seme newspaper as is now
provided. A piece ef foolscap stuck
oi a post in some obscure portion
of the ceuitry may serve as an or
nameat to the post but is not a very
powerful means ef edifying the pee-
pie en Matters of public interest.
