Douglas Martin has returned from
Iowa where he went on visit. He
thinks everything there is dull and
says he would rather own farm in old
Barber than any place he saw while he
was gone. Thomas Edes has bought
FIVE pairs of mules this spring; so look
out tor business. The play at the
Valley school house, March End was a
success. Quite crowd witnessed it.
Some say it was not as good as the
School exhibition five weeks previous.
One was in the interest of the school and
the other gotten up by older persons out
of the district, all but one actor, who
delight in such things. J.. A social hop
was INDUCED in at the EIdred school
house Friday night. All present seemed
to have a good time. :. Uncle Tom Edes
shelled about sixteen hundred bushels
of corn last week. .Thos. Knight has
bought team of horses of Douglas
Martin and is going to try farming,
thinking it is more profitable than
measuring calico tor the fair sex. i. i. +.
Miss Flora Teagle is expected back to
teach the Valley school. We hope she
will be as successful as she has been
heretofore. James Murray has bought
pair of mules of Mr.. Gage and thinks
he can walk them all down this season.

City Politics.

1t is generally understood that the
city council to De elected in April will
have important work TODD. The water
works question will come up for their
consideration; several companies are
figuring on establishing an electric
light plant; at least two railroad cor
porations yill knock for admittance to
the city it is certain that scc".eeral man
ufacturing companies will want to gain
foothold here, and other enterprises
will more than likely want to come i'm.
Then it is important that our people
consider well before deciding on city
ticket.
The liquor question should not enter,
even remotely, into the election. AS
has been demonstrated during the past
year, the city council has nothing what
ever to do with the enforcement of the
prohibitory law. They have collected
no fines, nor haye any saloons, gambling
houses, or other disrepniabIe places
kept open. Then let that question be
kept out of city politics.
We have no especial pets to recon-
mend for Office, but believe that from
the list of good citizens published be-
low, a tirst-class mayor and an exem-
plary council might be selected. Read
the list. and nick out vOur ticket.

Believing as / do, that no district in

abundance and as for productive soil,
we can't be beat. :. We want good

The Cash SYSTEM |

Experienced buyers, wheth-
er they be farmers, tradesmen
or mechanics, all admit that
under the system of Cash at
both ENDS of the line, !" they
are enabled to buy and sell
on a much smaller margin of
profits. With the idea of bene-
lifting our customers and at
the same time gaining a con-
siderable advantage for our
selves in the eastern markets,
we have decided that on and
after February 1st, 1888, to
follow strictly the cash Sys-
tenn.
We need not tell our many
old customers that ours is by
far the largest and best sell
ected stock of goods in this
county. 1t is a general stock
in every sense of the word and
embraces everything that a
family may need in the way
of necessaries, comforts and
luxuries.
Winter is practically over
and it becomes advisable to
clear out all heavy goods and
to do this, we shall make sub
stantial reductions on all
blankets, woolens, heavy cloth
ing, overcoats, winter boots
and shoes, and in fact all fall
and winter goods.
This is no sensational an
nouncement to draw crowds;
but a business proposition
that can not be controverted.
Call and see us whit the
cash or its equivalent, and
you will go home with more
goods for the money than you
ever before hauled out of this
town. Respectfully,
Stamford. Youmans &Eidred.
