City on business today accompanied by
Mrs. Gross. Mr.. Gross is one of the men
who have won ont by staying In Ford
county. Hs went through all Of the
hardships that assailed this western
country In past years. He came to this
country without capital. Now he owns
much valuable land aud could sell out for
enough to live any where, or spend his
time in any way he pleases. 1t Ia very
gratifying to see these early settlers come
into their kingdom at last; to see them
comfortably fixed, what we call wealthy

deserves to be successful it is the man
who stays by country and makes it and
himself success by his determination
and personal struggle Mr.. Gross has
the satisfaction of knowing that he has
by his puck and efforts made his broad
acres valuable. The writer notices that
Mr. Gross has son who is running on
the Republican ticket this year for
township treasurer, and ii is pleasure TO
see these strong hearted young products
of Ford county taking their place in
public affairs.
