THE KIMBALL GRAPHIC
cLATE R. TINAN.
Official Pauer Of the CITY and County

Something like thirty months ago,
Harry Wentzy-then our right hand man
In this printing establishment
down to Pukwa0a with our blessing and
bought the Press. Charley Powers, then
owner, a good newspaperman, was tired
of 1t, sought new fields, had other fish to
fry, and talked Harry into buying it,
which, as said, he did. Tho boy had
never made a try on his own nook, was
young and ambitious and be pulled off
his coat and went to work and gave the
town within a few months better
newspaper than it ever had and which
no town OF fifty voters that we know of
has. By employing 10 help and working
16 hours day, he made it a success-not
a startling one-but by the help Of coun-
ty and other legal work he paid his bills
and managed TO get enough ahead to
take a few weeks off now and then for a
rest. The boy, too, put on white shirt
Sundays -sometimes-and altogether,
managed to keep the resr OF his trousers
whole-all of which, no doubt, was con-
trary to the preconceived ideas Of some
OF the inhabitants, Of the traditional
country editor. It is likely, too, that the
young editor In this land of Puk has at
some time or other failed to scratch some
cOnstit where he itched the most. Any
how there are two newspapers now liv-
ing In the town of Puk where once lived
one before. The new aspirant for public
favor, and healer Of wounds, is called the
Reporter" and flies the name Of Post
master Davis as publisher and says it's
going to talk Republican turkey. Just
the object in showing this sheet into an
already overcrowded field, does not ap-
pear upon the surface; perhaps the post
master has all ak to grind and possibly
there are other axes to grind, as we'll.
A newspaper to every twenty-five voters
is worse than three in bed. II Harry
Wentzy had known enough to have gone
about town with the seat OF his trousers
dragging on the ground and poverty
stricken appearance generally, he would
have scared out any opposition. We're
1t not for legal printing and public pap
all as transitory as the winds-one
newspaper couldn't live in Puk and it
would have heen hard shedding in most
any other town hereabouts. Well, go it
William; it's none Of our funeral; we'll
watch your smoke. If you succeed in
making every galoot happy who reads
your paper, you'll be bird; that's right;
and it you create enough new business for
both; make two newspapers grow where
only one grew before, You'll have our
blessing and most distinguished con-
sideration.

For couple of years back St. Law
renee has been moving to Miller by piece
meal. The two towns are on the North
western few miles apart in Hand
county. Once they were rivals, but
there is not much left Of ST. Lawrence
but memory. The few left there, how
ever, are getting action on themselves
and do not propose to allow any more
buildings to be taken away and last
week got out an Injunction to stop it.
The case is to be a test one and will
come before Judge Gaffy at Pierre next
week. It has always been a matter of
doubt in our mind if the courts would
sustain the removal Of buildings from
an incorporated town on which there
was any Indebtedness.
