The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1903-03-20

Our mayor and council went up to
lola one day this week to talk over
the electric line franchise. We hope
this franchise will be granted soon to
some reliable, energetic parties who
will proceed to put in the line at once.
The line would surely pay in a short
time. 1t now looks like there will be
IA continuous line of oil development
going on for years from here well up
to lola probably beyond, an electric
line running through the field would
be great convenience.
Rev. Pulliam Of the M. e church,
has closed three years Of service here.
His congregation is very earnest in
requesting his services for another
year. He is surely about the best
preacher the church has ever had here
and has been Instrumental in many
good results. We earnestly hope he
may be returned.
Where do all the pins go? That is
a hard one. Where do all the photo
graphs go? The good are preserved

or the stove. If you want the kind
that are preserved and appreciated
get Lauck to make them. Hainbach
