The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1894-03-09

Mr.. G. +. Davis, editor of the Bloom
field, Iowa, Farmer, says: 1 can rec
ommend Chamberlain's Cough Rene
dy to all sufferers with colds and
Group. 1 have used it In my family
or the past two years and have found
it the best ever used for the purpose
for which it is intended" 80 cent
bottles for sale by Evans Bros.
Anderson & DeClute have given or
ders for marble sidewalk to be laid
In front of their business house, under
the REGISTER office. We hope that
every new sidewalk in town will be
Of this stone hereafter. 1t will be
found cheaper in the long run, and 1t
attracts the favorable attention of
strangers, and it advertises and helps
develop an lola industry.
The basis OF assessment agreed upon
by the township trustees at their meet
ing last Monday appears elsewhere
in this paper. Comparatively little
change is made from the basis of last
year, the most noticeable being the de-
crease in the valuation Of cattle and
horses and the increase of 20 per cent.
In the valuation Of merchants stock,
money, notes and mortgages.
Of this city are not In very bad condition even
while they are quite rough In other directions.
and the benefit Is seen by many farmers from
that section coming here TO trade, when they
have q trading point nearer but over miserable
roads. The best roads always draw the most
travel, and therein lies Q moral Union.
And there is great big moral in
this whole paragraph for lola. The
business men of this town could better
afford to fix the road east of tho
mound at their own expense than to
allow it to remain as it is another
week.
This is good weather for "perking
up", and we hope lola will do lot Of
it this spring. 1t doesn't cost much
to keep the yard fence in repair, and
money is never spent more economi-
cally than when it is used to put a
fresh coat of paint on the house. And
a town full of bright looking houses,
set in we'll kept yards guarded by
good fences, always gains more than
it spends to achieve this condition.

Ell. Thayer was in Chanute Monday
and made q contract for furnishing
three carloads of stone for new build
ings which are to go up there this
summer. He says there is great ex-
element there about the Thayer oil
find, and that a company is leasing
all the ground between Thayer and
Chanute along the line of the supposed
oil field. Wouldn't it be great if .
fine oil field should be developed in
Kansas? And wouldn't it be great il
lola should prove to be in the very
heart of it?
Our offer of the REGISTER and the
Topeka Capital both for $50 from
now until Jan. 1, 1895, should be ac-
cepted by every intelligent man in
Allen county. who is not already get
ting one or both of these papers. We
trust our Republican friends will take
special pains to make this offer known
to their Populist and Democratic
hbors, to the end that the gospel
of Republicanism may be given q
chance to bring opposition sinners
to repentance. The money should
be sent to this office.
