The two saloons in this city one
by l'hil. Frakor and one by Jako
Kauhchkolb closed their doors on the
thirsty public, at noon on the 2.id inst.
They were selling under license from
the city council given last. May in ac
cordance with tho old liquor law. They
each paid sf.100 license and gave bond
in 0110 thousand dollars. They hoped
that theSlocumb law would bo declared
unconstitutional, and had a strong, un
shaken faith in what their lavcr told
them, that if it wore not so declared, a
license under tho old law, before the
new law became operative, would hold
good the year for which taken. All
this has proved a delusion. The recent
decision of the Supreme Court lias
done what Tun Aivkhtim-:k tried but
failed to do demonstrate that liquor
selling under the old law was a con
tinuous offence against tho Stato, sub
jecting those engaged in it to tho pains
and penalties of the real law. Those
saloons, however, have been patiently
tolerated, notwithstanding the coulliet
waged between temporanco and drunk
ard making, until the pending decision
of the highest authority could bo had.
"When that was made- known it was
expected that the saloons would close
tt once, and until they could open
under tho Slncumb law. After wait
ing a reasonable length of time for
them to dose, and it appearing that un
less somo action was taken to closo
them they would continue to break and
defy the law, somo of the leading men
of tho city resolved to take immediate
steps to have tho law respected and en
forced in this regard, and to this end
eniployed.I. II. Hroady, Ksq. While
there might bo any number of Unable
cases brought against tho saloon keep
ers, who have been heaping offense
upon ofi'onsosineo the first day of June,
Mr. Hroady was instructed to notify
them that if they would stop now, and
continue closed until they can open
their saloons according to tho only law
there is regulating their business, tho
employers of Mr. Hroady will institute
no arrests or suits for paRt violations,
letting by-gones bo by-goues. So as
stated, our saloons are' closed, and Tin:
AnvKKTisKK hopes tho compact will
bo honorably kept, so that there may
bo no occasion for strife, bitterness,
arrests and linos.

Last Sunday we wore hustled in
to a wagon with Mr. and Mrs. H. F.
Sanders, (5. W. F. jr. wife and hahies,
and were soon carried twelve miles
away when we found ourholves at tho
much talked uhout town of Calvert.
This was our llrst visit to that piece of
heautiful prarie laud since it has been
chosen as the spot upon which to build
a city that idiall overshadow rivals and
competitors. It is the child of the H. &
M. laud Com puny, and is at present
being fostered with jealous care by the
inllueuce and money of that strong
combination. At the conception id'
Calvert it had no expectations for
nourishment beyond that furnished by
the H. & M. railroad, and no dread of a
rivul inteiior town. Hut since that
event the seienitv and confidence of the
new town has been interrupted, and
its greatness' threatened, by the en
croachments of tho H. .& M's most
lormidable ri.al corporation. At once
it was plain thatif the M. 1. should
run by Calvert without giving it a
denot and trive the denot to Sheridan.
...ivMHimi-t. .listnurn nir. the latter I
town would have at least an equal
chance with Calvert and therefore bo
a perpetual check to its growth. This
being tho situation for the past mouth
a desperate struggle has been going on
between Calvert and Sheridan for that
depot. At this writing, the title of
success seems with Calvert. In fact
wo may say that our information is
such as to warrant us in saying that
the M. 1'. will lake the Long Hranch
route, which means that Calvert will
have the M. 1. depot. That will give
it two depots of the two ntroiigo.it rail
roads in existence, and that will insure
Calvert a greater future than were
een (beamed if by its founders in
their most sanguine moments.
Calvert is only about two months old,
yet we found some 2r or :io very res
pectable buildings erected; some of
them liuished and painted, while others
are under way of completion. The
residences are neat, and the business
houses substantial all much better
than lirst buildings usually are in a
new town. We may in somo fut lire
article ment ion some of the buildings
and other features of the enterprise of
Calvert, that especially attracted our
notice -have not time now.
We enjoyed our ride to the "center"
very much, for there are beautiful
lauds, farms, residences, orchards, all
along the road to delight the beholder.
The corn crops generally that we saw,
are better than we expected to see.
Occasionally a Held very late and very
poorly planted will yield little beside
bidder, but such Ileitis are only a few
exceptions to the general rule of 40 to
.10 bushels to the acre.
Ladies, Dolen has
tho biggest and best
line of shoes in the
city. Call and see.
The law enacted by tho last legisla
ture, known as tho Slocumb's high
license bill, lias been pronounced con
stitutional and valid by the state su
premo court. From this decision there
can be no appeal. While some of tho
features of this law aro unreasonable
and obnoxious, it becomes tho duty of
tho law olllcors and courts to onforco
its provisions as far as they can prac
tically be enforced, until the law
making power shall either repeal or
modify it. Thobest way to got rid of
a bad law is to enforce it. -Omnha Ike,

Since our last issue President

bulletins, constantly sinking, and the
people may lie prepared to hear of his
deatli at any moment, His pulse has
for days stood at or near 100 and '
ottener above than below that mark,

no mortal man can long endure. His.

and he can scarcely open his moiitli..

it is impossible for me to take the
time to refute all the falsehoods that
aro put in circulation hy the whiskey
riugiu relation to the working of the
prohibition law iu this state; sulllce it
to.sa once for all, that prohibition in
Kansas as a whole is a grand success;
in fact prohibition is ahsoltitcoxccpf iu
a few of the larger cities and it will
not be long until the backbone of tho
whisky rebellion iu these places will be
broken. Yon need have no fear of tho
llnal result of prohibition in Kansas,
Immediately upon tho announce
ment of the I'ax'ti that the SI'octimblaw
had been declared constitutional, every

of the saloon keepers who had some

out a license, proceeded at once to com
ply with all the requirements of the
law, and on Monday eening three, of
the twenty iu our city, wore running
at full blast again, and well patronized.
Several others are at present engaged
in procuring petitions and bondsmen,
