The term OF confinement of the Dodge
City saloon men expired and they were
discharged last week, There 10 a vast
difference Of opinion regarding the action
Of the county attorney and the commits
sloners In connection with these cases.
A great many people believe that as the
men were running with the aclt consent
OF the city and had expressed themselves
as willing to stop business at any time
they should be requested, that they should
have been notified to close their places,
and let that end 1t. Some think they
should have been fined $lO0 each on the
injunction cases, and let that end 1t.
Some believe that they should have lad
the thirty days, the fine and costs and
that the city officers should have had to
serve tho time with them. 10 freeing
them the commissioners remltted the
fines, and In three Of the cases the costs,
and some are much exercised at this
action, especially as to the costs, Some
who wanted the places closed are aatis-
fed to know that this has been accom-
plishei, and are not particular as to the
details or method OF doing 1t. The pro-
prletors Of all of the places are under
bond to not engage In business again
within twoy years.

Here For the Summer.
If the people Of Dodge City want a
good military band and llle musicians are
willing TO do their part the matter can be
arranged. Merritt Beeson has been In

the most successful instructors and d.
rectors in this country and man who has
offers from St. Louis and many other
places for the summer, The stay here,
however, would be partly In the nature
Of an outing and vacation and be will
come here for less than he has been
offered further east Ills engagement

engagements.

The GLOBE -REPuALICAN has received
a communication from Glenn Davis re-
gardlng the report Of the trouble be-
tween the teachers Of neighborlng dis
trlcts III Ford and Gray counties. Mr.
Davis states that the "trouble" has been
greatly exaggerated, that himself and
the other teacher had dispute, but that
1t was amiCably settled and followed by
apologies and good will. Mr.. Davis
letter appears to be very fair and gen;
tlemanly statement Of the occurrence,
and indicates that the teachers Of Ford
and Gray county while willing to argue
point when they think they are right
are not belligerant characters at all, and
have no intention Of bringing soft gloves
battleships or torpedo boats into any
argument which may arise.

A number Of teams and men began
work on the race track Monday morning
and II necessary to complete II two weeks

the fair here this year and those who
come here earlier to train will admit that
it Is the best track In the state.
The new circuit to be formed this year
will give Dodge City several important
advantages
The Colorado horses that begin the
circuit early in the summer will come
down the Arkansas Valley With our
circuit started in Colorado 1t will allow
Dodge City to have the date Of the first
week In September. This will be the
point then from where all of the horse
men can step from the Western circuit to
the one further east. Great Bend has her
meeting the second week In September
and the horsemen can 70 from there to
the state fair at Hutchinson, and from
there to Newton and Wichita. ln this
way Dodge City will lose nothing by be-
Ing out of the old circuit but will be the
gamer In every way.
Secretary Gallagher has been receiving
letters from the other towns where fairs
will be held and from scores of horsemen,
and from all that can be learned, every
thing Is favorable for big meeting this

Big PRAIRIE FIRE.
Happenings Of the Week Sent in BY
the Falrview Correspondent.

the FaIrview Correspondent.
The farmers In the west part Of Con.
cord township had some serious expert
ence fighting prairie fire last Saturday
afternoon. The severe gale OF wind
blowing at the time caused lhe flames to
fly with tile speed Of the fastest horse.
The farmers of Fairview and Concord
township stubbornly fought the fire say.
Ing several home and farm buildings.
Finally when they had the fire under
CoutrOl the wind shifted to the north
with gale and flames burst forth anew
sweeping south. Every fre-fgbter re-
newed his effort again by hard and per-
sistent work had the fire once more under
control when night stopped their work.
In the past the farmers Of Concord town.
ship took no interest in plowng and
burning fire guards for their protection,
1t is to be hoped they will encourage
protection from prairie fires as the
farmers are doing In Falryiew and Rich
land townships.
Mrs. Jordan Workman and little
daughter have been visiting her pare.ts
for the past week.
Edna Bealmear has again taken up
her school work after an illness of three
weeks, Miss Sadie acting as teacher dur

A Wonderful Business.

Possibly there Is no line or industry in
the United States that has grown in such
proportion In recent years as that of gen.
eral advertising, which includes publicity
in newspapers and magazines and out
door display advestiSing, and through Its
tremendous force the entire basis Of mod.
ern merchandising has been revolution
ized.
The Chicago papers of The current
week devote much space and time to tile
wonderful growth of the advertising
business as whole, and that Of Lord "
Themss In particular, owing to the re-
tirement Of Mr.. D. M. Lord, the senior
member Of the firm, who leaves active
business life with rich competence,
The business of Lord & Thomas has
been one Of the most aggressive and
progressive OF Its kind In the country,
having in recent years been under The
active management of Mr.. A. L. Thomas,
whose Judgment on advertising matters
is considered as authoritative by the vast
body of publicity users. Mr.. Thomas has
succeeded Mr.. Lord to the presidency
and will continue at the head of the firm,
Mr.. @. r, Erwin, the new Vice Presi-
dent has been connected with the com.
pany for20 years and is therefore vet
eran in the field; associated with him and
Mr.. Thomas, is Mr. A. D. Lasker, the
Secretary and Treasurer
10 give some idea to the public of the
growth OF advertising us whole, 1t
might be stated that IN two years the
business Of Lord 4 Thomas alone has in
creased one million dollars in the billing,
and in the one month of January in 1904
this house has booked $75O,OJO0O Ia ad.
vertising contracts from the following
concerns, whose names are household
words in the United States: Anheuser-
Busch Brewing Assn, st. Louis; Siegel'

Rock Island r. X. System.
Thirty-fve years of wide experience
in handling the publicity of a large por-
