OF THE
SMIYIUMMCAIIM.
A WEEKLY HEFUPLIOAW NEWSPAPER,
DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF
WESTERN KANSAS.
Volume II.
The success which has attended us during
the past year, as shown by our increased cir
culation, in our securing so extensive an adver
tising patronage, and by the high encomiums
which have been received from the press and
people cf the State for our bold and indepen
dent course, ia defence of the Right, have
BSktiefied the Publishers that the Union is a
fixed and permanent institution of Western
Kansas.
"While thanking our many patrons for the
bountiful support which they have given us
and for the encourngement received by the
many compliments bestowed, we wor.ld ask a
continuance of their help in making the Union
a reflex of the prosperity and advancement
which is sure to attend he course of Western
Kansas,
btnetly identified with the interests of
Western Kansas, and well knowing its vast
resource?, which are only awaiting the magic
hand of the capitalist and laborer to be fully
developed, and added to the growing wealth
mi; uuuuiry, we snau spare no pain3 or
energy to bring before the masses of the East
the great advantage of our country as a place
of settlement for the home-seeking immigrant
.vcryunng tending to induce capital to flow
hithcrward for tho development of our exten
sive Loal Iields and rich Salt Spiiugs will
receive that particular attention which it
deservea.
xu ponucs, we sunn pursuo tuat course
wiucn wo believe justified by principles of
Right and Justice, and which tends to Human
Progress, Universal Liberty, and the free
pursuit of Happiness by all mankind.
The importance of having a full and com
plete local department we would not under
estimate, and we are again impelled to ask our
friends to aid us in this matter give us
information of any thing transpiring in your
neighborhood. We desire the Union to be a
perfect history of this locality.
As we are unable to reduce the price of our
paper, and live by if, at the same time making
it a useful institution, wc have concluded, in
View of the mighty interests involved in the
present struggle, to so arrange our terms as to
give our friends an opportunity of extending
our circulation in their localities:
One year 52 numbers -Six
months 2G numbers
Ten copies, one year,
$2 00
1 00
15 00
We will also give to the gctter-up of a club
of ten subscribers the eleventh copy gratis.
Wc would appeal to our friends to aid u in
putting the Union in the hands of every man
inn estcrn Kansas.

LIBERAL QFFEfiS
TO ALL WHO WISH TO SECCBE rOE THIMSELVI8

rpHE PROPRIETOR OF
Abilene,
anticipating a l?rge emigration to Western
Kansas during the present year, and the
location of the
COUNTY SEAT
of Dickinson County at that place, offer the
Most Liberal Inducements to all
who wish to locate there. To those who will
make improvements within twelve months he
will donate from two to five lots, according to
the amount of improvement Superior induce
ments offered to Mechanics He will also make
liberal donations for
CHURCHES, SCHOOLS,
and Public Improvements.
Abilene is beautifully situated on a small
stream of clear running water, one mile nnrlh
of the Smoky Hili River, near the geograpical
centre of Dickinson county, and on the great
thoroughfare from the Missouri River to the
Gold Regions, New Mexico, and California. It
is the only town between Junction City and
Salina, and is located midway being twenty
five miles from each. The country around
Abilene is the most fertile and beautiful that
can be found in the State its character being
an intermixture of timber and prairie, pecu
liarly adapted to agricultural purposes. The
fertility of the soil, the excellence of the water,
the healthfulness of the location, and the abun
dance of timber and building stone, are induce
ments of no ordinary character ; while in
addition, the rich mineral resources of this
portion of the State, ihe Salt Springs, and
extensive Coal Fields west of us on the Smoky
Hill, insuring the early completion of a Rail
Road from the Missouri River, makes it one of
tho best natural business points in the State.
The town was laid out six months ago, since
which time over one hundred lots have been
sold, and it now contains a store, blacksmith
shop hotel, Post Office, and several families.

ferred, by permission, to the following gentle
