An effort Is being made, we un-
derstand to establish a post-office
about six miles southeast of Clifton,
in the Gaylord and Warncke neigh
borhood. 1t would be great conven-
lence to the people of that vicinity,
and, being nearly OH the direct stage
line between Clifton and Blunt, we
see no reason why it cannot readily be
secured.
j. T. Martin the bolter and inde-
pendent candidate for County Judge,
was defeated in the same convention
which nominated Judge M. j. McCann

polls next Tuesday. Vote for NJ. j.
McCann.
THE Importance of the people
turning out and voting at the election
next Tuesday cannot be too strongly
urged just at this particular time. The
result of the election will have its in
fuence in Congress this winter upon
the question of the admission of South
Dakota to stetehood. We hope the
people of Dakota will turn out en-
masse and express themselves at the
polls.
Arrangements have been made for
a "bee" next Wednesday, Nov. 4th,

Kenny is helpless from an accident
and will not be able to do anything for
weeks. All are invited, and we hope
there will be good turn out. The Ia
