and the able and genial cashier of the First Ma

our people understand the benefits OF the tele-
phone as they come to understand it's merits and
make use of it. Already many OF our business
men are wondering how they ever got along with
out it and are praising it more and more as its
service is appreciated.

COUNTY EAIR

This being the last issue Of the HER
AID before the eighth annual fair OF
our County Association we feel it in
cumbent upon us to once more call the
attention of our farmers and stock
breeders to the fact, and to urge upon
them the Importance Of making the
best display ever exhibited in the coun-
ty- Visitors from other parts of the
country who have heard Of the wonder
full crops which have blessed this por-
ton of Kansas, will expect and justly,
too, to see a fine collection and we are
able if we will but give little time to
the subject to surpass the expectations
Of the most sanguine.
The accommodations for all kinds of
stock are unsurpassed and between
40 and so new stalls have been erected
in addition to those that were built q
short time ago. The race course is one
of the best in the northwest and the en-
tries have already reached to o larger
number than was expected, and the
number will still be increased.
The fair is under careful and com
petent management and good care will
be taken of all articles and stock exhib-
tied. There will be something Of inter
est for everybody and they should not
fail TO attend, bring their neighbors.

In company with Postmaster Watson,
Mr. Wm. Spurlock and Mr.. T.. o..
Wilcox, we visited Philipsburg, last
Tuesday. The trip was an eVentful
one in many particulars, and frOughJ
with interesting Incidents to the guar

ness and a desire 20 see the county seat
prompted the scribe in the tour. We
were greatly aud agreeably surprised
with the pretty little ''city on the hill. %
The site is pi sturesque, the people gen
ial and afable, and the town in q thirty

IS envelOped in an air Of permanent ac-
tivity, all of which we note with unen-
ViOus gratihcaJ. on. The reunion was
in full blast, and the citizens severally
and collectively doing their level best
to render hospitality and attention TO
visitors and the ''bOys in blue, COM
mensurate with the occasion. Speech

interesting and vigorous. The glee
club sang a few stirring patriotic selec-

Georgia, - which awakened an enthu-
siasm contagious and rOusing. The
brass band made things lively assisted
by a rafting marshal band from Logan,
the latter of the Post from that town,
A large number Of people were present
iutermingling in genuine enjoyment Of
the numerous festivities presented. a
game of base ball between the Phillips
burg team, and a club from Plum
township, took place in the afternoon,
resulting in a victory for the former
club the score standing u to six. The
hub club is q strong nine, and we
would caution other clubs to beware,
when they lock horns with the heavy
muscled ballists of the county capitol.

There are few positions of public
trust that are so difficult to manage as
that of probate Judge; and we dare
say there are few officials who have
succeeded in this position so admirably
as Judge IL. c. SPauldGug. 1t is a pos
itiOu requiring peculiar executive abil-
ity, and the manner IN which judge
Sparkling has conducted the Office in
the past is evidence that he possesses
such ability. That he has given entire
satisfaction is autested by his long re-
tention in Office. He is deservingly a
popular official has the necessary ex-
perience may ALWAYS be found at his
Office and will certainly receive q sub
stauuaI endorsement by being renOmi-
mated at the republican convention -
