In Kansas there is a promising condition
of the wheat crop and an ircreased acreage.
Of 35 reporte, 27 are good to excellent, 5
fair or not much damage, 2 not to favorable

This hu been an eventful w.ek in atd
about Great Bend. The calender of crime
would be complete with a cold blooded mur
der to cap the tbeaf. Mobs, drunkenness,
larcenies, gambling and kindred amuse
ments. Tribune.
Reports from various sections go lo con
firm the statement that the wheat crop of
this year will equal the immense crop of
three years ago, and that the corn crop will
be above tbe average. This la gooJ news
for thoee interested io the grain business.
Canadian papers Mill mourn departures
for tbe United Stales. Tbe Gait Reformer
mentions the departure week before lrst of
twenty persona from Wilniot for Kansas
whither many of its citizens hate gone in
she past two years, and alto o! two dizen
persons Ito-n CheKierCeld for tbesame State.
A number of the leading a:ock men cf
Colfax county, X. 51., are availing them
selves of tbe godd pasture in tbe eastern Kr
tion o! this county and will extaMi'h an Im
U)ene slock ranch. In tbe valley of the
Canadian south of Fort Baeccm they are
fencing a small range of 250,000 acres.
Messrs. Chase, Dawson, SUulding, Porter,
Springer, and others we understand are in
terested in it. They will stock it with from
10,000 to 20,000 bead of cattle.
As the new tranrcontinental route is at
tracting so much attention, tbe following
table of rate, distances and fare agreed upon

Evidently tbe Capitol of Mexico is becom

is already in Amerio,but Unite! States-ized.
A conesioiident says tbat signs in good
American idiom announce here and there
places where the wayfarer can procure "Old
Bourbon htsky," 'Gin Cocktails," 'Chew

pouring in at such a rate that it is expected
that the City of Mexico will have not less
than six thousand of them in a few months

TUE XEW OYERLAXD ROUTE.
There were forty-to through passengers
frcm the Pacific on the train that pissed
east yesterday ncxan. It is not merely tbe
novelty of traveller; by the new.oyerland
route tbat is the explanation of tbe heavy
train, but ia an index of the great travel that
is likely to pass over the A. T. & S. F. and
Southern Pacific reads. Emigrant trains
will be put on as soon aa can be arranged
for, so that express trains will carry only
those holding first-class pusecger tickets,
lbe Southern Pacific owns its own sleeping
cars, which are vastly inferior to those of
the A. T. A 8. F. railroad. They are paint
td a bright yellow color, as also are tbe pas
senger coaches. A train thus made presents
a fine appearance from a distance as it goes
kimming along on the iron roadway. The
interior of the sleeping can is fitted Up in
light woods, and there is a lack of that lux
uriouanm so noticeable in the Pullman cars
of this road. The comparison may be ex
tended to the passenger coaches. The dis
tance from Kansas City to Ban Francisco is
2.35S miles, and requires five days in transit;
three nijjhts and two days from Kansas
City to Dern'mg. and three days and two
nights from the junction to San Francisco.

KAXSAS AND COLORADO.
Ten years ago this month, a dinner was
given by Colorado people to members of the
Kansas Legislature, at Manitoa Springs.
After dinner a gentleman delivered a speech
to the gueat in which, among many other
good things, he said it was well that Kana:s
and Colorado were so near each other; for
wh'de Kansas had tbe wheat and corn to
feed tbe miners of the mountains, Colorado
bad tbe gold and silver to pay tor them. He
referred in glowing terms to what the pres
ent argued for tbe future of the two states
when lir.es of communication would be es
tatlmbed between them so that tbe farmers
of Kanus would have tbe beet market in
Colorado for their grains, fruit, horsef.mules
cattle, sheep and bogs; that une would grow
rich by her fields, paaiorrs and orchards,
and tbe other by Lcr mines and manulac
lure?.
Since the time of thatpecch many chang
es have taken place in both states, and in
tbe line of the prophecy tten uttered. FruU
has been lor teveral years ehipjied from
Kansas to Colorado. It is as good as that
which comes from California; it sells as
readily, and tbe transportation co-is loe.
Colorado is almost exclusively a mining and
manufacturing state. The farmers there
will never pielccd to supply the home
market with farm and garden products.
There all must come from other places, and
Kantas is far ahead of all comrelitors in
the ability to supply tbem. It la time tbat
Kansas farmers arrange for this western
market which must grow better every year
Our Co'orado neighbors need just the things
we have to sell. UV have wheat, cora,uiur,
fruit, vegetable, meat aqd stock, and these
axe what tbe mountain boys want and have
the money to piy for. Our railroad system
U rapidly developing, so lhat it will not be
long until tbe lines of commerce will ac
commodate therm-elves to the locations of
tbe new niarlels. Our epring criia are es
pecially always good. Onions, potatoes,
le.tuce, Ac, and the small fruits never fail.
Thee could be aide profitable beyond cal
culation. If tbe farmers would organize in
ibis matter become xnonopolis s in their
own intercut, they could soon create and
control a trade fioin which immense profiis
mnet inevitably accrue. The tuject is ell
wurtly a tention. Topeka Capital.

TUE GROWTH OF KAXSAS.

worth Times. This paper has always been
