The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1892-09-02

We have never bsen able to bring
the REGISTER entirely up to our idea
Of what q country paper should be;bu
IL approaches somewhere near it this
week. 1t has the usual amount o
miscellaneous matter, editorial com
ment on live topics, nearly all the city
and county news there is going, and q
much better than usual display of adj
vertisements. The paper isn't all
that it might be if we had a few more
hours i'm the day to put on it. But we
believe it is one that any stranger,
picking 1t up at distance, would at
once declare came from live town
and was printed for an intelligent and
sppreciative community.
