business death Of a succession of
proud newspaper dynasties which
had come here to run it out.
It has not been much longer than
two years since a fresh arrival in
formed the WORLD that his adver-
Using had made Wa-Keeney quite
well known abroad!
The World has met with opposi-
ton in its support Of Republican
candidates for local Offices. This
has not deferred it from pressing
steadily forward, in the firm belief
that it's course is right. Year by
year, Republicanism has grown
stronger in Trego county, until to-
day the county is as surely Republi-
can as any county in the United
States. We aim to say that neither
party. becomes so strong in any
county that it does not witness once
in great while the defeat Of one Of
its own candidates.
Early in it's career the WORLD en-
countered the gentleman who knew
better than the editor how to con-
duct this paper. He has not been
around in that capacity to see US
since.
Standing on the promontory Of
events in western Kansas for the
past nine years, it is safe to say that
the material condition of the coun-
try has undergone change-very
gradual, it is true for the better.
Whether the wind has blown cold
or hot, whether the weather has
been tranquil or stormy, the WORLD
has been mounted upon the gun
vale of the moving ship, pointing
out the breakers, encouraging the
precious cargo Of human lives to
60 in the right direction. IL, at
times, we were upbraided for not
being a rapid-enough boomer, rec
ompense came freely in the refec-
ton that the WORLD aimed never
to lie people into this region to have
them go from here to lie greater
numbers into stunning it. The be-
lief seems fairly prevalent that we
have aimed to do as nearly right as
nature at once ambitious, yet SEN
sitive, would permit. With us, pos
tive friendships have increased with
the years, old enmities, based upon
groundless assumptions, have vanish
ed, until to-day we feel that about
the seyerest test to which our execu-
tive ability could be subjected would
be all effort to emigrate from Trego
county.
But, in concluding this article, we
must say that the WORLD is not re-
ceiving the financial support which
it merits. We are making a living,
it is true; it is equally true that the
work which we perform in this Office,
if it were expended in almost any
other Legitimate direction, would
guarantee to us a handsome profit
each month. Quite a large amount
IS due us. on subscription We
ought to have every cent of this, not
only because it has been earned, but |
we need it. Many hands make
light work. If every well-wisher Of
Trego county will throw sentiment
aside, and rally to the support of the
WORLD, with the determination that
t shall not be Invested of any of its |
power by half-hearted support, the
paper will be kept up to its past
standard in the various departments.
By us, it never will be run on a
over gauge.
