Talmage Wants q Depot.

TALMAGE, Jan. 21.-One improve
ment is needed here, The great San
ia Fe route has no depot building at
this busy little town. There was a
very small Office room at the siding
with no place for freight to be I'M
loaded. Business demanded better
accommodations so another little box
was placed beside the one already
here and through this little apparatus
all this railroads splendid business at
Talmage has been transacted. I'M
provement demands better accommo-
dations. Prospectors who may be
looking up a location for a home get
an unfair impression of the elegant
country surrounding Talmage and of
our business capacity from the infer
iority of the depot building. The
Santa Fe should give us a better de.
pot. We believe that it would paw.

MAY LOSE HIS JOB.
DR.. Ketchersid May Not Be Coroner
Altar All.

AFTER all.
A new wrinkle in county Office hold
ing has developed in connection with
the Office Of coroner. A red hot fight
occurred last fall over the office be.
tween J. M. Shepherd, Populist, and
DR.. j. N. Ketchersid, Republican.
The latter won and then took a trip
to New York City where he now is.
He did not qualify for the office,
though the law says officers elect must
do SO within thirty days Of election.
But that spry octogenarian, Mr.. Shep-
herd, did not forget it. He has quail
flied for the office and expects to hold
it until the next election. The office
is worth fighting for as it frequently
pays as much as $7.75 in a single
year. The contest between the appli.
cants will be watched with interest.
DR.. Ketchersid is expected home in
about two weeks and it will then be
seen il he has forfeited his office.

Comments on Dickinson Affairs.

Minneapolis Messenger: The Dick.
lnson county commissioners have
ordered that all supplies for the
county shall be purchased Of home
merchants and home dealers. This is
as 1t should be in every county in the
state. Some one in Abilene
found an umbrella and advertised It
in the REFLECTOR, and yet in spite of
evidence to the contrary some people
insist that the world is getting no
better. n The ABILENE REFLECT.
OR was designated by the commits
sioners of Dickinson county as the
official county paper for this year Of
grace. 1t is such actions as this that
keep up the faith Of the world in the
doctrine of the reward of merit.

BANKS DIVIDE DEPOSITS.
County Money Is to Be Placed in all
County Banks.

0~A0o'
The banks Of the county had hear.
ing before the board OF commissioners
Thursday as to placing the county
money. Heretofore it has deposited
at the county seat banks. A law
passed last winter allows of its depos-
it in any bank Of the county. In ad-
dition to Abilene bankers the follow.
ing representatives were here: B. A.
Flack, Enterprise bank; S. G. Cooke,
Bank Of Harrington; F. E. Munsell, Her.
ington National bank; G. A. Rogers,
Solomon bank; Chapman bank sent a
letter; Hope bank not represented.
1t was decided to deposit IS
per cent Of the county money in the
Abilene banks, 46 per cent in
banks outside Of Abilene. It's under
stood that the money outside Of Abb
lene will be deposited in sums pro.
portlonate to the amount of the banks
capital stock. The two Herington
banks have $4,000 capital each,
Chapman $4,000, Solomon $1,000,
Enterprise $4,000. Hope, it is re-
ported, does not care for any county
deposit.
The rate to be paid the county is
two per cent on daily balances.

COUNTY BONDS ARE REFUNDED.
A Large Saving BY the Favorable
Terms Secured.

County Treasurer c. H. Pattison
returned from New York City We'd
nesday, having deposited in the ifs
cal agency there $27s,OOO worth Of
new refunding bonds Of the county
which on Jan. 20 will be substituted
for the same amount Of abroad bonds
called in. The old bonds were in
three series; $4,000, July l, 1887;
100000, Nov. /, 1887; 100000, Dec.
%, 1887. They bore 6 per cent in
terest. The new bonds, which have
been sold to Splitter 4 Co., Of Toledo,
Ohio, at par and with bonus Of s575
to the county, bear 5 per cent, max
ing saving Of $3.50 year interest
charges, or with the bonus a saving
Of s55,775 in the twenty years they
have to run. The bonds were sold
on very favorable terms, much more
so than many counties have been able
to secure, both on account OF the
county's high standing and the per-
sonal efforts Of County Treasurer Pat
tison and the county commissioners,
who deserve credit for their success. |
Indeed it was decidedly against the
lesire Of some bondholders to give up |
10 good an investment as the old |
bonds which they recognized as gilt
edged securities. as indeed they were.

ront financially and ranks among the
MOTT substantial in the State.
