THE GREAT CONTEST.
"Emporia News : Cau anybody tell
us why the democratic papers are all
so anxious to beat Col. Martin a the
republican candidate for Governor,
and they manifest such interest in the
success of Judge Thacher?
The Eagle's bulletin board was
surrounded by a large crowd of ex
pectant; not to say anxious citizens
yesterday afternoon, patiently await
ing the latest bulletins from the con
vention hall at Chicago. Xot a single
word was received until three o'clock,
aud that indefinite. But a little after
four the result of the temporary or
ganization was received. Koran hour
the figures, the name and the possible
results to which the action pointed
were earnestly canvassed. The ma
jority of these citizens seemed for
Blaine, aud emphatically so, many de
claring that should any other be nom
inated they would not care for the re
sult next November. There were
others hoped it meant Arthur. Here
aud there and now and then an old
soldier would express the hope that
the convention would eschew all poli
ticians, aud finally nominate old Tc
cumsch Sherman. I
The last prayer wo responded to
with a hearty amen.
CHENEY.
According to the trustee's returns
for the two years named, on March 1,
1883, Morton township had a popula
tion of '289, and at the same time in
188' the population was 544, showing
an increase of 255, tjic largest gain
with but one exception Wichita town
shipin the county. Grand River's
report shows 302 in 1883 and 274 in
1884, a loss of 28, probabably on ac
count of the removal of Marshall
Garden Plain's population is 602, a
gain of 136. Eric in 1883 had 184, but
in 1884 is not mentioned in the data.
Alton has 395, a gain of 85. Cheney
did not begin to grow until about
March 1. Making allowance for the
increase since that time, and lor the
population of the township ouUide of
the city, the number of inhabitants
on this mile square may be safely
said to be 500. Journal.

written bv a former citizen of this
town to Mr. M. W. Levy. The picture
is not a very enticing one : '
Tacoma, W. T., May 26, 1884. '
M. W. Lcry. Dear Sir: I have
been scouting over this country a con-'
sidcrable, but as yet have found noth
ing to suit us, so far as present busi
ncss or future prosperity are concern
ed, :t the Arkansas valley. '
The area of fanning land here is
very limited, the principal crops being
hops and vegetables. The Puyallup
valley is the chief agricultural section '
tributary to Tacoma. and the farmi
are made up of small openings or !
clearings along the narrow valley, sur-1
rounded and separated by immense
forests. One cannot buy a cleared
farm there for less than ji'JOO per acre, j
and one covered with natural forest !
growth of stumps, from three to fifteen
foet in diameter, is held at $100 per .
acre. These juices are conclusive evi-1
deuce that the anra of farming land is ;
not extensive. The lands are, how- '
ever, very productive and raise 1.700 '
pounds of hops to the acre. Nearly i
all kinds of fruit but peaches llourish. i
Dwelling lots in Tacoma on an un-1
graded street, three-fourths of a mile
from the poslofiice, jwenty-five feet
front covered with stumps, arc held at,
from S.'SOO to $1,200. 1 think they !
- have discounted the future by about
live or ten years. "We have just rc
retumed fiom a trip down the sound!
to Victoria, B. C, and find the same I
thing at nearly every point. ;
""Tacoma considers herself the ter
minus of the X. J'. ILK. Seattle hopes
to be in the near future for reasons ,
satisfactory to herself, and the minor
points are amusing llicm-elves with j
the hope that something may turn up
to their benefit. It i undoubtedly '
the intention of the p re-en t manage
ment of the X. I. to make their per-,
inanent terminus here, but we all '
know that railroad managements
