Col. Bryan Leaves.
After a week spent here resting from
the trying work of the past campaign,
and which is what might be called part
of the punishment of being public man,
Col. Bryan and family left Tuesday for
San Antonio, Tex, where Mrs. Bryan
and children will spend the winter on
advise of the family physician, as the
climatic conditions at their home during
the winter months is too severe on their
daughters health.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan expressed
themselves highly pleased with their
visit here, especially Mrs Bryan, this
being her first visit in our midst, and
she said that it was her intention to
again visit in Van Buren, at some future
date.
Col. Bryan s wish that he be treated
as any other Van Buren, visitor was
carried out, and for this reason he said
he enjoyed his visit so much more, as he
felt free from the restraint usually at
tending his visits to other points
Portions of last Friday and Saturday he
spent at the Point as guest of the Point
Gun Club. and while ducks were not
very plentiful he stated that he enjoyed
the outing greatly.
Our people generally hope that Col.
and Mrs. Bryan will find it within their
power to often visit here.

Growing crops are much harder to
protect from theft and depreciation than
is other personal property, and it is our

such. and when attempted murder is
added to such theft, because the owner
attempts to protect it, we think the law
should punish severely.
