Attend To This Now.

Have you seen Sans & Brokers
big line of Monuments? IF not, it
will be well worth your while to stop
and look them over. In the past two
weeks we have sold a. great many
monuments. Those who have
bought will cheerfully tell you it is
better to go direct to factory, where
over 200 fine monuments are to be
found in our show rooms, rather than
buy from a picture, or in other words,
from a man who carries his marble
shop in satchel.
Those men will tell you anything,
in order to get your order; will say
they are "owners of quaries, and get
their goods in train loads, etc." Be
careful and do not get caught up by
such talk. Simply come to our place
of business and pick out from our big
assortment monument that will suit
you, and save the gents 20 per cent,
commission. By SO doing you see
what you are buying, and save the
travelling agents commission of 20
per cent.
Yours for your patronage, which
will be thankfully received.

Another Improvement In Sight.

The members of the local w. O.
W. camp are agitating the question
of forming corporation for the pur.
chase of ground and the erection of a
building to cost in the neighborhood
of $4,000, the upper story to be used
for lodge and club room, and the
lower story for store rooms. This
proposition can be pushed to a sue
cessful finish with the proper efforts,
and we believe men forming the or
ganization have the spirit to do so.
Here's hoping something along that
line viii. be done.

Cut IF Out.

As citizens of Great Bend we
should conduct the little campaign
that is now on, decently, cleanly, and
fairly. 1t is only little one, but is
also pretty hard fought one, and we
very much regret the personalities
that are being introduced in some
quarters. Please cut it out. You 'reput-
licans should avoid these thiugsl be-
cause these little sore spots stay a
long time. You democrats should
keep away fromthem because it is bad
politics and helps no one, and as
citizens of Great Bend we should all
avoid them because we must - not
have any sore spots any place if we
are going to unite and push for the
good of the city. Let us ali stay shy
of personalities, If we are taking any
part In the campaign aud it will be
much better. Cut it out.

Her death removes from this earth
the first one of the young ladies of
Great Bend who were the popular
social leaders of the young crowd
some eight or ten years ago, and her
many friends, both old and young,
are shocked to learn that so early i'll
life has the dread summons come to
her, and they all unite with US in ex
tending to her bereaved husband and
relatives our heartfelt sympathy in
their sad bereavement.

Observations, by the Old Man.

WANTED-The1 subscfiher'' who
wants me to leave out all advertise
ments and ell every column of this
paper with reading matter, to calland
give me practical formula for pay
ing help, paper bills, taxes etc. with
out advertisements. Such a recipe
would be worth big money to me.
Had you noticed that Kansas stuck
another big feather in her hat when
she pointed the way for Missouri to
get out of her troubles by the cleo
ton of Major Warner?.
I have never observed that
the party who sends away tor their
dry goods or clothing are any better
dressed than the good citizens who
buy from the home merchants. But
maybe they are.
wish that superstitious party who
will not step on crack in a stone
sidewalk would tell me the difference
between stone crack and a brick
crack. If he ships the brick cracks
he is cracker-jack.
I believe if the youngl couple who
takes baby to church or public
meetings and laughs at its racket
producing abilities couId1 hear the
comments of the audiences it disturbs
they would not think it quite so cute.
I'd like for every citizen of Great
Bend tossee those opera house plans
which Doc Rafington has had made.
They certainly look good to me.
l think every voter who is regis
tered should get to the polls next
week and express their choice for
city officers.
Ithave not yet picked out the street
I want that north and south road to
go through the city upon. My
preference is for belt line around east
of the east school building.
That bad smell you notice, when
the wind is from the west, is caused
by the spring sun striking the rotten
ness in Colorado politics.

Washington, March 25.-Oficials
here believe that, as matters stand,
President Castro of Venezuela. has
the upper hand in the dispute with the
Unined States. By the Hague Tri-
bunal decision of 1903 a percentage
of customs receipts at certain ports
is rendered safe from
attack by being pro-rated among
several European powers. Castro
then diverted the imports, which it is
believed he expects to protect in
similar manner by. agreements with
England, France and Germany. Thus
most of the powers are tied up
without getting material bene-
fits, while the United States has no
recourse.
There were no new developments
in the situation today.

acquainted the President of his de

President being unable to persuade

Hay was still in the same mind when

reluctantly accepted. Among those
Roosevelt is considering for the place
