at I o'clock Saturday before the third

We agree with Bro. Keaaey that
the aotiee whieh the Chief has deigaed
to give hie raper has beea of eoaeidera
hlebeaeft ta it, aad we are glad of it,
and womld saggeet to Bra. Keaaey that
if he had oa the start, displayed a rea
sonable assoaat of eatereriee, by edver
ting his basiaess ia the Cenir, we see
no reason why be could not have ran
the circulation of the Argun up to 500
copies before this, but Hie many others
who attempt to-do busioes, he aeglected
one of the principal essentials adver
tiring and consequently his progress hss
been slow. Now, in all kindness to yoa
Bro. Kenny, we will offer a few words of
advice, and hope yea may receive them
in the same spirit in which they are
givea. In the first place you are strug
gling to gain a foot-hold for your paper,
in this county, you have for a rival in the
business, a paper that has beea estab
lished nearly seven years, and whoso
editor was one among the first settlers of
this county, and who is acquainted with
nearly everybody in the county, and
proud to say that nearly all are personal
friends. Now if you will devote your
time to building up your enterprise and
stop throwing mud at a co temporary
that would be glad to assist you in get
ting permanently established in business
here, it would be better for .you, you
cannot build up your busines by your
puny attempts to pull down tho Ciiixr,
you are only injuring yourself. Strive to
ferget (and pray that the people may
forget) that you boasted on the start
that you bad come here "to eulignten
this oommunity." Slop boasting in
your paper that you wear good clothes,
the people in this country are not heath
ens, they do not form an estimate of a
man by the clothes be wears. Instead
of indulging in the disreputable business
of mud slinging, you should treat your
superior! in the newspaper business, with
respect, and gain tho confidence of the
people by a straight forward konut course.
Discard that egatistical, over-bearing
manner, and in time .ytu may gaio some
influence among this people whom yoa
'came here to enlighten."
C. II. Kakemmn, the popular ton
sonial artist, has just added to his estab
lishment, an English hair clipper, which
is a dtctdod improvement over the old,
way of catting hair . with - the scissors.
He wants everybody to cosae and give
him a trial. 43t4
Miner Bros., have arranged the up
per story of their store room for a cloth
ing emporium, and have a first-class
tailor constantly employed filling orderj.
This new feature to their constantly in
creasing business will add materially to
their popularity, and we hope preve a
bonanza.

Ed. Chief Oar crop prospeet was

eaeagb to cultivate, we will begin to
cultivate tomorrow moraing. We have

A great deal of prairie is being broken
up this spring and put iato sod eon.

1 took a ride over the eoaatry with
Mr. E. C. Williams (the representative
oftheDevey Harvester) last weekend
we found the farmers very butsily en
gaged at their work. We passed the
farms of Mr. Wagoner, Mr. Beacham,
Mr. Hunger, and Mr. Richardson in
Webster county, snd from their to Mr.
Boganreifs and to Mr. Wm. Gates where
we were very hsspitable entertained for
the night. After leaving Mr. Gates ia
the morning we visited se feral more of
the most prominent farssers of Smith
Co., Kansas, among whom were the
Beirdrtlu boys who are good farmers and
good citizens. Mr. E. 0. Williams is
looking up the interest of the Mineapo-
( lis Harvester works, and will soon locate
at Red Cloud with a full line of imple
ments and repairs, manufactured by the
Mineapolis Harverter works, among
which is the Dewey Harvctter one of the
finest and best working harvesters ever
put into a grain field, i would ad vise
the farssers that want a good harvester
and ono that will not upset on rough
laud and one of easy draft, to buy the
Dewey and you will sever regret it.
Our Sabbath school n still on the in
crease; last Sunday our attendance wa3
over fifty. Brother Hampton delivered
a short lecture to the children last Sun

Ed. Chief. We arc at present hav
ing weather admirably favorable to the
growth of crops.
We have so far only succeeded in ob-
Itaioiog tho number of acres that twenty-
seven of our farmers have in crop this
year, the average is about 60 acres each.
nearly one half of which is in corn.
There is a great deal of breaking being
done this ccason. Grasshopper plows
are quite extensively used. The season
for plowing corn is here, and caltivators
are creeping outoftbeir long icstiBg
places into the corn field.
The schools in districts No. 4, 7, 16
and 46, respectfully taaght by Mrs. Sa
rah Wagoner, Miss Ella Andrus, Miss
Lydia Mungcr and F. A. Cooper are
prospering finely. The average atten
dance of the first three echnols mention
ed is about 20 scholars, cf the last, about
30 scholars. Farmer.
We omit the remainder of the above
letter partly because it is in reference to
a 'aw 6uit which is settled and should be
forgotten, and in any event can be of no
possible interest to the readers of the
Chief, and partly because the letter is
written in such a way that it has to be
copied by the editor, before going to the

aasweriog a riuipla protect? Do yoa
expect to ercrawe or alarm poe by orer
whelming him with vituperation aid
contempt? A kvr word from you right
ly directed might rectify largely the
eaose of complaint. You will admit that
the datieiof the Ast, aro oneruui and
trying, and further, that no person uot
posses-jed of a fair bbaro of patience,
amiability of temper, grcab!e manners,
aad able to refuse ons a request without

general satisfaction. You find these
qualities concentrated in jour Asst. and

Carlos yields to the inevitable. He is
not a man of war, but of peace, and were
there a way open by which he might
approach official dignity, and injured in
nocence, bearing in his right haad the
olive branch, and in his left, his little
bottle of soothing surip, how humbly
would he adraucc and with balm and oil
tllcviate the pain and heal the wounds
he inflicted. And finally, shou!d a patient
publio receive henceforth, even a Uttle
better treatment in the way of courteous
oess and civilly, he will bear with com
mendable equanimity and resignation
the reproach he may receive for his pre
sumptiousness; and, if permitted, ub
side into that obscurity from which he so
anwittingly emerged. Carlos.
