The Secretary of the Fort Scott .
Commercial Club , who has lived in
Kansas twenty-five years , writes : I
"Kansas , with its natural ; resources , '
is the most productive state in the
Union ; , and yet we have gained less in
population than almost any other
state , the increase of immigrant
population in this state being less
than the birth rate. "
Tax payers of small towns in Ne
braska are . asked' 'to vote for the
scheme of so-called county option , the '
only result of which- would be to in- 'I'
crease the taxes on every dollar's
worth of property. Clandestine booze
would be consumed in the town , for
which the people would se'nd their
money abroad. .
In 1894 Iowa abandoned the policy
of prohibition and returned to the li.
cense tax system. Vermont and
New Hampshire abandoned prohibition
in 1903 , and Rhode Island in 1SS9.

It seems as though the managei i
ment of our State Fair did not
make any mistake when on the
last day of the 1909 fair , the only
day on which the track was fit for
t
racing on account of the incessant
rain , they allowed ten harness
I
races to be completed ; making a
record only equalled once in the
United States. The racing could
have been delayed and not more
than one-half as many finished ,
but they as true sportsmen gave
the horsemen and people just
what had been agreed , and the r
1910 State Fair , Sept , 5th to 9th , I
promises a field , of horses worth
going thousands of miles to see.

The Misses Dora Wiesner and
Lottie Grady went down to Ains-

Thursday of last week there was
a large prairie fire which started
near Jack Cronin's ranch. Much
I hay was lost and considerable I
damage done to the range.
Russ Carter was in from the
ranch last Thursday and reported
: a large prairie fire in his neighbor-
hood the day before. It did con-
siderable damage , burning a shed
and team belonging to Wm. Car-
ter , besides much hay and range.
Several Valentine people came
down and went fishing with some
of our local sportsmen last Sun-
day. The day turned out bad ,
however , and the fishermen were
nearly I ' frozen when they reached
town , with about twenty trout ,
and a fixed determination to try it
.
again.
i The Tennessee Minstrels show-
here Wednesday of last week ,
drawing the largest crowd and
giving the poorest show of the

that it has been our unhappy lot
to promote for some time. How
a company of men and women
I have the nerve to impose upon a
community in such a manner is a
puzzler.
