Harwood, the Cultus Club will meet
with Mrs. Poe on Friday afternoon at
? O'Clock.
W. S. and r o. Lappin of the south
west part of the county, visited Phil
lipSburg last Thursday. 1t is taxpay-
ing time and the county treasurer re-
ceived call. w. S. is a Logan bust
ness man and his brother lives in To-
wanda.
When you come into the Herald
office notice the beautiful calendar
with which, through the kindness of
w. Nj. Chelf, the Office wall has been
decorated. Every customer of the
Pioneer Roller Mills may get one
equally as beautiful.
Agent Ingram of the Rock Island
System at this place gave the editor
an insight into the duties of a station
agent last Thursday. He reports the
railroad work at this place as nearly
double what it was last year This is
an index of prosperity.
Phillips county's leading socialist
and an all around good fellow, Frank
F'reeland, called at this office Monday.
Mr.. Freeland is a we'll posted indi-
vidual and an advanced thinker, not
withStanding the fact that he is a
representative of a theory which as
yet has gained but little ground in
Kansas. 1t is growing here as else
where, however.
The liberality of view and breadth
of mind which suggest to a member
of one political faith the fairness and
deSrability OF reading an organ of
another is indeed admirable, and we
are glad to say that the Herald list
contains the names of many such
characters. May the tribe increase
We like them, and when they see that
we are honest in our convictions and
treat them fairly they will like US.
Farmers, when you come to town if
you have never visited the mill, you
ought to do SO, and look through it
carefully. The proprietor will be glad
TO show you through. Sometime ago
the writer by kindness of Mr.. briggs
had the privilege of investigating
this imposing structure, and listening
to his explanations of the mechanism
and workings of the institution. A
visit of this kind cannot fail to i'm
press one of the marvelS of human in
genuity. The Pioneer Roller Mills is
by far the largest in western Kansas,
is leading county enterprise, and
one which ought to command your at
tention and receive your patronage.
Mr.. Chelf says that wheat exchanged
for flour at the mill really brings
price about ten cents per bushel above
what it does when placed upon the
market.
We are always in line in Phillips
county, and have something to offer
the public. We have two propositions
at this time to submit for your con-
SideratiOn, one is shall we continue to
hold the office Of congressman in
OOHuIUOlJ III nillIpO Guilty. we
have had this position for years, and
still we have an anxious aSpirant who
is willing to sacrifice himself on the
political altar. l could call his name,
but it would call for abuse as this is
not the proper channel, and / will
simply say, we have monopoly of
this congressional business, and any
old thing will do for a candidate, so
long DIS Phillips county has the thing
to offer, banker or sawed off news
paper man, why not real estate
man? The second proposition is, we
have 800 acres in Walnut township
for $4,000 on terms to suit, and it will
be taken off the market if not sold in
side of 80 days. 1t won't stand for
years like republican candidate for
congress. j. .. LOWE.
