A measure has been introduced into the Kansas legislature prohibiting the issuance of free transportation of any kind , even the exchanging of mileage for advertising. George F.

Johnson and family Consent - sent no longer to he ( lebart ed from tl e pirvileges of good society , an(1 have moved hack to North Divide and occupy the A. T. King place. A generous supply of clothing and a few other necessaries were donated by the people of Illinois and sent to this precinct. A portion of them were distributed - tributed from the house of William X. Johnson. The precinct is indebted to Mr. Johnson and family for the kind services rendered in this work. What is the matter with the producer of small ears of corn ; does the dry weather - er effect his crop ? Or perhaps he is chewing the end of his lead pencil in secret , and will astonish his readers with several columns of poetry. Our advice - vice is "don't. " If you can't raise "nubbins" surely the flowers of poetry won't grow for you. We ought to say something about the snow , the recent cold weather , the coining - ing of spring , etc. , and so carry on , as far as possible , the work of the ne v- paper in disseminating news. But then sonic people who d0 not take T1iit TRI BUNS would still be in outer darkness and we will let it go and leave you to find out these facts as beat you may. Though facie may spoil some , such is not the rase with our genial friend , Constable - stable Muiidy , who bears his political honors with becoming modesty , and whose smile is as bright , and grasp as fervent as it was before election. We almost envy Box Elder the pleasure of owning Charley as a townsman , but we still take comfort in the thought that the Divide has a place in his generous heart. How nice it would be if , among other much desired things , we could believe that the time would come when people who are sick or slightly ailhtg will not be put on the "sick list. " If we were suffering from poor health we should strongly object to being put on that mysterious "list , " for the writers always leave us in doubt as to its nature. Where is the "sick list , " and who keeps it ? how many are on it ? what do they do with folks when they get them there , and how long do they stay ? Or , at least , if we must have a sick list , why not , for convenience , have a "life" list and a "dead list. " 7'he Hog Cholera.
