So far in the history of Lamar,
our people have stood as one man
when the interest of the town was
at stake. This course has, as il al
ways will, proved of great benefit to
the town, and it behooves our peo-
pie in the future as in the past, to
keep personal interest in the back
ground when the general interest is
to be considered. You can take the
history of any of the new towns in
the west and those that have made
places OF importance, are the ones
that have set down right at the start
on all measures that would have a
tendency to create strife in the com
munity. Our town is now where
questions may come up that NAV
cause feelings that viii eventually
divide the people in the present one
idea of making a city. These oues-
tions are founded wholly on person
al interest and will have to be ig-
nored. 1t can be done, and must be,
in order to advance in growth and
Importance in the future as in the
past. Our town site is all Lamar,
always keep this in mind. 1t makes
no difference what improvements are
going on the northwest or southwest
corner lot, as long as it is credit TO
the town, it is in Lamar, and as citl-
zens we should be satisfied. These
gre matters that should be thought
pf before trouble arises in order to
avoid what has killed many a town
in the west.
Bent County register., 1886-10-09

1t is noticeable that each new
conner to Lamar almost with their
arrival here becomes enthusiastic in
the idea of making this city, and
Immediately set about in the work,
by sending papers and writing let
tiers to friends in the east. All of
them know somebody that wants to
come west, and they naturally desire
they should come here. 1t is just
such earnes; individual work that is
going to make Lamar good town,
and with each newcomer will be
found a new worker for the town
and country. We are in a fair way
to make the biggist town in Eastern
Colorado, and all that is wanted is
to keep right on in the good work.
Write to your friends in the east,
send them papers and maps, talk
Lamar on all occasions and we will
surprise the western country inside
of 4 year.
Bent County register., 1886-10-09

The ways of politics are past find
ing out, and the uncertainty of every
thing connected Herewith is loss
of time in trying to understand.
This is forcably brought to mind by
the appointment of our land officers.
We, of Lamar, and it was generally
the case, had come to believe that
Hon. p. F. Sharp and Did Alexan-
der would be the lucky ones. Ger
tainly no one was ever more strong
ly endorsed by both republicans snd
democrats than was Mr.. Sharp. This
in connection with his prominence
as democrat in the state, and his
popularity with all classes, carried
conviction to the minds of nearly
every one that he would surely be
chosen, and we understand he had
every right to expect the appoint
ment. We also understand Mr..
Alexander was promised one of the
places without question, and why
they should both be set aside is a
nut for the democrats to crack.
Bent County register., 1886-10-09

We are pleased TO find nu mber
of gentlemen who have taken claims
near Lamar inten d TO engage in
mixed farming, and will for awhile
plant only what will make feed for
their stock. This always includes
that sure crop alfalfa. Mixed farm
ing pays in any country, and until
farms are properly opened up here,
mixed farming is the safest.

The past thirty days far more have
taken claims, built houses and are
making substantial improvements
across the river than is supposed by
those who have no occasion to visit
the north side. Hardly day in that
time but what lumber for q new
home has crossed the river. One of
the pioneers over there said to us a
few days ago: "We are at work and
intend to make farming a success on
the north side
Bent County register., 1886-10-09

1t is good sign to see all the
towns in this upper valley moving
ahead in substantial manner. a
town can amount to nothing with
out a surrounding country to back
it. Towns are not built in deserts.
And where there is good town it
may be depended on, that the sur
rounding country is abundantly able
to sustain it.

do this are daily coming here to
