from such enterprises, while a great
number of our own citizens fail to COM
prehend the benefits thus gained by
having in our midst business that
gives employment to SO many.
Our neighboring exchanges which
have so courteously mentioned the
INDEPENDENT in regard to publishing
a daily and commenting on Plymouth
and her business men for their progress
siveness, we wish to thank for their
kind notices, and remark that daily
in Plymouth will be one of the features
of her progressiveness in a short time.
1t is a necessity to meet the advancing
line of local prosperity which is coming
to our city without the aid of boom
articles and an outlay of enormous
sums of money.
One of the most contemplate prac
tees that can be pursued by any man
has broken out in Plymouth again, and
bids fair to be the end of great many
fine dogs. We refer to the surreptitiouS
poisoning of the above named animals,
two cases of which have come to our
notice during the week. DR.. Burkett
lost fine blOoded dog by this means
and Mr.. Barney Ocker saved one only
by hard work after a big dose of poison.
If the perpetrators of such deeds could
be caught, they cannot be dealt with
too severely.
The people in our little sister city to
the south of us, Argos, are getting a
great move on them this spring. We
learn through their hustling paper, the
Reflector, that new buildings are being
erected and that he will have to look
up new location to give way to new
building That's right, Brother Wat
son, man who runs paper in town
that has "get up and git" can move
into tent during the summer, and can
then thank the good Lord for allowing
his lot to be cast among people who are
progressive even if he does have TO
move his shop.
The man who left a horse belonging
to Liveryman Warner, of Argos, in the
woods all Monday night, ought to be
sent to states prison. The man, who
was stranger, rented the horse to
drive to Plymouth, representing him
self to be relative of the JacoX family
here. He came to Plymouth and Mr..
Jacox saw him after he arrived but he
did not go near the barn but drove went
on CAIRO street. Tuesday morning Mr..
Warner telephoned to learn if the horse
had been seen here. Mr.. Jacox west on
the trail of the wagon and found the
horse about five miles west of town.
The horse had been standing uncovered
all night in the woods and at daylight
farmer took him and gave him some
feed. The fellow had skipped out and
has not been heard of.
