A "GERNAL" OF TODAY.

A "GERNAL" OF TODAY.
 The evening Herald, otherwise the organ of the gloaming, carries brazen little three-liner amongst its locals, announcing the 'fact' that it is the only paper which prints the news of today" Such reckless and bold dis regard for veracity this newspaper cannot, in justice to the community, allow to go undisputed. If allowed to go un- checked and unrebuked in this instance there is no telling to what extremes the evening paper would go toward strangling the truth. Verify to our contrumphery truth is stranger-much stranger than fiction.
 First. Our contrumphery errs in regards to dispatches. While the Herald gets 600 words of an inferior day report, THE REPUBLICAN gets the entire night report embracing over 5000 words. As has been remarked before, it is the only paper between Galveston, Texas, and Los Angeles, California, which prints the full report of the Associated Press or any other press. In this matter our contrumphery can hardly claim pre- cadence.
 Second. THE REPUBLICAN does not "pad" out it's local news in the pro- vincial style of certain papers. It is highly metropolitan. It condenses the news. It gives the meat, the pith, the kernel, as it were. Neither does it disfigure its local columns with fulsome puffery, quack medicine advertisements and others of doubtful propriety. As a sample of the news of today witness:
 Slight derangement of the stomach and bowels may often be corrected by taking only one of Ayers Pills. Through not having the Pills at hand your disorder increases, and regular fit of sickness follows "For the want of 6 nail the shoe was lost," etc.
 Reading a little further in search of "today's news" we find the following interesting item:
 Cleanse the scalp from scrirf and dandrufr; keep the hair soft and of natural color by the use of Halls Vegetable Sicilisa Hair Remover.
 And here is another:
 
 me for the best cough medicine had" says Lew Young, prominent druggist of Newman Grove, Neb, "of course showed him Chamber lain's Cough Remedy and he cld not ask to see any other. have never yet sold 6 medicine that would loosen and relieve 6 severe cold so quickly as that remedy does. l have sold four dozen of it within the last sixty days and do not know of a single case where 1t failed to give the most perfect satisfaction" 5O-cent bottles for sale by all druggists.
 Still further down the "noos" column we stumble over the following fresh bit of "today's news"-'center readingjcol- umn, local page." No man, woman or child can fail to read this without being fetched to tears by it's fresh and "noosy" character:
 A few days ago while sitting in Elder Bros drug store at Tngley, Iowa. MT. T. L. Dyer well known citizen, came in and asked for something for 6 severe cold which he had. NIT. Elder took down a bottle oi Chsmberlain's Cough Remedy and said: Here is something can recommend. It commands large sale and gives genuine satisfaction. It is an excellent preparation and cheap" Mir. Dyer purchased bottle and the next day when we saw him he said he was much better, and the day following II
 seemed to be entirely restored. This is speci- men of the effectiveness of this preparation Des Moines Mail and Times. All druggists sell the above.
 Our highly esterprising, though fre- ,---tiy .~-i- ~--a L-i~t-I .-->.~-,Pi..y also announces this P. NJ. that Editor Hughes was in town, probably referring to the arrival of the Auditor. That Gov ernor Irwin's reception takes place to- night in Tucson, when the jamborll comes off tomorrow evening, but these slight errors are followed up with the refreshing news-secured at great labor and expense-that the nights are cool and tenderfeet will have to look to their blankets" It is doubtless upon the last news item of today" that the Herald lays claim to greatness above the com mon herd.
