We notice by the Humboldt papers
that B. HI. Dayton has been Obliged
on account of ill health, to sell his in
terest in the bank and take a years
vacation. Mr.. Dayton il one Of the
most popular men~fn Allen county
and his numerous friends will unite in

The Anderson boys have got the
contract for furnishing brick for the
school building. These gentlemen
have been working faithfully for a
long time and we are glad that their
brick are now gaining the confidence of
the market. It seems that lola work.
men and lola industries are getting a
pretty fair share of the school house
appropriation after all.
In another column will be found a
notice of the dissolution of the Live
ring. Mr.. Hendricks expects, we I'M
derstand, to go into the commission
business in Kansas City. We shall
be very sorry to have him leave town,
but wish him success in his new VEN

keep the Live Hardware as lively as

brother Ashford though it would be
safe two to one for Cleveland, So he
proposed vote of the train, and it
was taken, showing 81 for Cleveland,
80 for Blaine, for Butler, l for St.
John. Pretty good for democratic
excursion.
Those of our people who did not go
to Bismark the first of the week, will
probably go to the Old Soldiers. reun-
ion at Neosho Falls to-day or to-mor-
row. With customary generosity the

81 cents for the round trip and will run
an extra train, leaving lola at $3.50 a.
M. and returning in the evening at
800. Connections made at Piqua.
Tickets good till Monday.
At its meeting last Saturday the

ent secretary, and the executive
committee as follows: r. w. Duffy, |
E. A. Barber, n. l.. Ard, G.. l.. Know

Among the products exhibited by
the Horticultural society at Bismark |
this week, are one hundred varieties of !
apples, 10 varieties of crab apples, IL
varieties of grapes and Il of pears.
We see the exhibit well spoken of by |
Lawrence papers, and the Horticul-
tural society certainly deserve the
thanks of the community for their en-
terprise in the matter. Prof. Vande-
man, of Geneva, went to Lawrence to |
see that the exhibit was properly TAX
en- care of.
We think that our business men are /
coming more and more, to regard a !
city telegraph Office and teie-
phone system as a necessity, and |
we believe that if competent man |
would secure and take charge of these
institutions, he would receive album
dant support. If we had the telephones !
we might perhaps dispense with the
telegraph office, but we certainly need |
one or the other or both. Who will he
the man to distinguish himself by
furnishing them to us?
The entire Register force has been
busy this week at work on a 80 page
pamphlet which is being published by |
Mr.. A. f. Wagaman to advertise his |
Ague Cure and st. Patricks Oil. Mr.. |
w. is having 10000 copies of the PAM
phlets printed-which makes it the |
biggest order for job work ever given
to an lola printing Office. A number |
of our merchants have taken advan-
tage of the opportunity offered to adj
vertise their business by inserting |
Attractive cards i'm the book.
Business is rushing as usual over at |
the Carriage Factory. Among the |
work shipped out this week were the |
following: One side bar, and one end |
spring buggy to Towanda; two bug
gies to Augusta; two to Wichita; one1
to Benton and one to Thayer. The
Factory has also just finished a phae-
ton ordered by an old man i'm Los
Angeles. California, which is one, of
the finest we have ever seeny/We
would advise any one who hikes to
look ut perfect work. in any line, to go
over to the Carriage Factory and take
a look at the pheton. The town GER
tainly has right to be proud of the
work turned out by Messrs. Knapp &
Ijams.
The joke this week is on couple of
Gentlemen from Urbana Ohio. Before
coming out here they purchased and
packed away six months provisions
for their families, to bring out with
them, expecting that groceries fruit
&c. would be so much higher in price
here on 1.-The frontier" that they would
be much the gamers by shipping them
in. When they got here they found
sugar, which they had paid II and ~
cents for, selling at Z and S, and other
things in proportion, while they said
they would he ashamed to have the
