The Kimball graphic. (Kimball, Brule County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1905, 1885-01-16

OF every twenty persons who when
a bill is presented, almost involuntary
exclaim: "Leave it I'll examine it" al
least eighteen knows the bill is all
right, and of the eighteen probably
sixteen could pay the amount just as
well n time as another. 1t is quite
as often the rich who thus thought
lessly make a nan run twice or more
for his money as people of moderate
means.
All democrats of the territory who
are DESTROYS of attending the inaugural
ceremonies at Washington on the 4th
of March, should communicate with
Capt. d. w. Maratta, at Bismarck,
on or before February 5th. A special
train will be chartered to leave Chica-
go Oh the 18th, and will reach Wash
ington in time to allow the witnessing
of the unwilling of Washington mon
ument on Feb 22nd.
Perhaps Than can tell us why a To-
connective never sits down.-Biiou
Hills Times.
We don't know, Bro. Lowe, unless
it is because it has a tender behind.
Amy thing further we can enlighten
you on?-GRApH1c.
Why didn't you go on, Tlnan, and
tell your brother Lowe-the poor In
dian?-that its tender behind was
caused by the constant switching it
receives?-Northern Ohio Journal.
c. r.. Tinan, of the Kimball Cd. T)
Graphic, u "Clate" published to the
young ladies of Kimball the fact that
unless Santa Claus bronghth him might
shirt he should have to get his last
years linen ulster lathed and plastered.
Some fair maiden was moved with
compassion and Clate takes a whole
h%alf-column tie tell his readers what a
beautiful befurbelowed garment for
the night it is.-Painsyille (O) Demo-
crat.
The recent communication of c. M.
Austin to the GRAPHIC touching upon
county affairs and more particularly
upon county warrants bore good fruit
and has been highly commended.
Commissioner Cone informs us that
a vote will probably be taken next
spring to bond the county for 10000
to pay up the outstanding warrants
which are drawing eight per cen IN
terests and worth only SIS cents at
that. 1t is expected that the bonds
can be placed at seven per cent inter-
est and the warrants brought up to
par.
A stranger walked up to the clerks
desk at the Mitchell House, in Mitch
ell n day last week, and arranged
for a commodious room. He regist-
cred his name "W. H. Durand and
and laid down the pen. The clerk
looked at the entry a moment and
said politely: "Will you not register
your lady, alss?" The man hesitated
and then said: "Ill register in an
hour" Gail right, sir" said the clerk
The guest and his lady left the hotel.
An hour later they came back, he
went up to the register and added one
word-4wife." They had been mar
ried in the interval.
In an able write up of his town last
week Bro. Than told Of sshundreds
of residences" being erected in the
/ year of 1884. 1t reminded us of the
petition for Carloads of pepper" for
the Kansas sufferers.-Mt. Vernon
Gazette.
Or of the converted (?) old sinner
who arose in meeting and prayed:
ooh Lord, send US a barrel of pork,
Oh Lord, send us a barrel of beans,
Oh, Lord send us a barrel of flour.
Oh, Lord send us a barrel of coffee
Oh, Lord send us a barrel of sugar.
Oh, Lord send US a barrel of pepper
hi and d-nation but that's too
m UGH pepper"
Brother Tinan of the Kimball
Graphic has something large enough
to do business in at last. Some an
onymous lady, has sent him, from
Cleveloud, O., an overflow Mother
Hubbard dress, with buttons over it
like soup plates, and a pickering
strung to it, compared with the rank
ness Of which green perslmmons
would be blander than Blue Point
oysters. He provoked this mild but
effective form Of assassination, by
satirizing the under wear of the softer
sex, and can't evoke any pity. Rich
ellen, han he lived to see the destruc-
ton Of Than, would have amended
the postulate Bulwer, reported for
him, that "the pen is mighter than
the sword" and admitted thata petit
coat slung about the neck, would
wipe out the pen, as it has done in
Tinan's case.-Mitchell Mail.
