nerve in Chicago when he refused tt
discuss trust matters with Bourk'
Cochran, or even speak at THE same
meeting with him.
Nobody can kick on the service w
are receiving at the pUstoff1ce now
Postmaster McCielland made no mis-
take when he put Will Powell IL
charge of affairs there.
Query: Why don't the Newly Man
tie Co. have card on the outside Of
the boxes IN which they ship Out
their products, stating that they were
manufactured in Chanute?
The Newly Mantle company were
bothered in their work by the fair
but have now got down to business
again in good earnest, and are crowd
ing things to catch up with their or
ders.
There are supposed to be some lum'
Der yards in Chanute somewhere, but
a person looking over Chanute paper
might conclude that they had all
closed out, and go elsewhere for his
building material.
The new real-estate firm Of McClel'
land g. Wright is doing business at
the old stand. They report number
of sales already. They don't seem to
be ashamed of their business, as their
big ad in THE TIMES will attest.
We would call special attention to
the big ad of Hysinger & Rosenthal
now running in THE TIMES. This firm
is always to the front with the latest
thing out in its season. They are
making some special low prices now.
The Topeka Capital seems determl-
ned to raise little row in the repub-
lican party if it possibly can. We are
not in favor Ct bossism over much,
but we are decidedly in favor Of ear
nest republican workers that can al
ways be relied on.
Why don't some of these calamity
howlers who are 'spillilg so many
tears over the deplorable condition of
the unemployed labor of the country
send or of their unemployed labor
ers around to DR.. Barker who is very
anxious to secure help?
Wonder what arrangements, IL any,
are being made to furnish our citi-
zens cheaper gas this winter? The
universal demand seems to be for
cheaper fuel, either from the local
company or by the city. These damp
days remind us that the time is short
for preparation.
1t would seem from Mr.. Brewster's
statement in last weeks Sentinel that
he and Amos Lapham don't cut much
ice as assistant counsel IN case in
the district court when they allow a
settlement to be effected without
their knowing anything about what
is going on. Must have been enjoying
the usual siesta.
1t ia said a brick company has beer
formed in this city and that they will
Immediately arrange to get plant IL
operation to convert Bunker Hill
shale into fine quality brick. We hop
this is true. The gentlemen reporte'
to be in the company have plenty o.
money and there is no reason VIII.
they should not make great success
of the brick business. Who will b.
next? The shale beds just south o
town are an inviting field for capital
This week has been busy one TO
the book dealers. Every pupil in tn
high school had to get full suppl
OF new books on account of the ney
text book law, besides the usual mum
Der in the various grades. Our legis
lators-neglected TO incorporate tn
exchange claus in the act so the book
of last year had to be thrown away
A little thoughtlessness right ther
on the part OF our law makers cost II
citizens Of Kansas thousands OF DO
lars.
