Medicine Lodge.

What kind of a town have you? is a
question frequently asked by those who
desire to settle in Barber county.
Briefly, in this issue, we will answer
the question. first by saying that 1t is
the best town in Kansas, west of Well
ington, and then by going into details.
Medicine Lodge was laid of and set
tied in the winter of of 1S72-73, and
from that time until now it has never
met with a reverse, but has at all times
been prosperous. For years it was the
great trading point for territory ex-
tending one hundred miles south, fifty
miles west, thirty miles north and to
the county line on the east. It's mer-
chants did q wholesale business, the
cattlemen expended here thousands of
dollars OF their easily acquired wealth.
The people secured and improved their
homes and erected many substantial
buildings.
Then, when stock raising was blend
ed with agriculture, when the popula-
ton of the county doubled i'm two years,
the town also increased and new busI-
ness and residences followed. This i'm
prOYement has continued, as the in
creased population demanded, until to-
day 1t is an undisputed fact that Medi-
cine Lodge has the greatest number of
substantial brick blocks of any town in
southern Kansas.
In this issue, with our limited space.
It is not possible to publish pictures of
half of the fine buildings we have; but
we call attention especially to those
that appear in this issue, as follows
The Grand Hotel, three-stOry brick.
with n tull basement under the entire
structure. 76x90 feet, aud containing 100
commOdiOus rooms then the Cook
Sherlock block, l00xl0Q, the lower story
being divided into four elegant store
rooms and the second story into Offices
and an elegant public hall, fitted up
with q stage aud scenery. Then the
First National bank block and Noble q
Nixon's hardware establishment. Then
the Citizens National bank block. Then
the court house. But these are not
half. The Thompson block is 75xllO,
two stories, elegantly furnished, with
basement under all, and a fine opera
house with a seating capacity Of 700,
furnished with q commodious stage
and modern scenery and the balance Of
the upper stories cut into Offices. North
OF this is 100 feet front OF four other
two-story blocks. Then there is the
Lebrecht building and the Loyeioy
block, extensive two-story brick build
ings. and the twO-story Medicine Lodge
house. Then there are the brick blocks

Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1888-04-04

Politically, Barber county is about
equally divided bet ween the democratic
and republican parties, each party be-
ing represented in the county Offices.
The labor vote of the county. at the
last election, was about 425. But the
people OF the county are not all active
politicians and ofiice-hunters, and while
they do take an interest in the political
welfare OF their county, as all good
citizens should, they do not let politics
interfere with their business. Two
months in the year is usually as much
time as they care to give to an active
discussion Of the merits of aspirants
for office, and even then they get very
tired. This then can not be said to be
a hot bed for politicians who do not
work, neither do they spin.r
