f.. A Marsh went to Broken
Bow Last Sunday.
We are having ideal weather,
although the nights are a little
cool.
Jno. Belden started last v ed
nesday for Saline county to visi'
his parcbts.
School begins today at the
Knight school under the tutor
ship of Miss Genie Todd.
On account of the low price OF
wheat many farmers will feed 1t
to their hogs instead OF market
ing same.
This is State Fair week at
Lincoln and some from here will
attend to see the many exhibits
there and probably some to see
the Hon. VIM. j. Bryan, or the
10 to | advocate. 1T ali the
sta nds there pay as well as one
soda fountain was reported from
Arcadia which took in 500 IN
one day, the fair will be hum
mer.
! We note the president has
recommended and ordered in the
U. S. printing Office the phonetic
spelling, AS to our part we are
not particularly infatuated with
the new idea. However, we
presume in time we shall have to
fall in line but shall use the old
rule: "Be not the first by whom
the new is tried, nor the last to
lay the old aside.
We are glad to hear the name
of Mr.. w. A. Rabourn has been
mentioned by the citizens of this
community as candidate Tor
representative of Custer county
on the republican ticket to our
next legislature. We heartily
endorse the name of Mr.. Rabourn
to the delegates Of the republican
county convention to be one OF
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1906-09-06


our enterprising and foremost
citizens aud right up-to.da;e and
no back number. He is the own
or of one of the best improved
farms and model homes on Clear
creek. Mr.. Rabourn is always
busy attending to his own affairs
and the many duties on his farm.
Such is the kind of men we want
to represent us in the legislature
and one who does not aspire or
seek the Office and to one who
has made a success for himself
and shows it by what he has
done. A large institution never
looks for d head from one unless
he has made a success for him
self. Now Mr.. Rabourn has
made success for himself which
can be readily seen by looking at
his home and surroundings and
how things are kept up in shape
and while he does not seek a
public Office we know if nominal
ed and elected he would surely
attend to the interests OF the
people in the best possible man
ner and we therefore hope TO see
him nominated and elected as our
next republican representative of
Custer county by large ma jority.

these two ingredients alone
is just as good to-day as it

There is a great boom in city real
estate and some are making money
right along dealing in real estate. A
small corner in the heart of the city
sold for $4,000 few days ago. Lots
that two years ago could be bought
for SIS now bring $500. Mr.. Jones
who lives near US concluded to buy a
lot and build on it. He paid $500
out near the University, and was
offered $3.50 for it shortly after he
bought it.
Some who have home steaded a
mile and a half out northeast are
asking $4,000 for their quarter sections
OF colesia. / have been told that
some got as high as $4,000 for their
homesteads near the city. They
don't any of them have more than
$500 or 500 worth of improvements
on them. 1t costs about $50 to con-
test claim here. There is an old
resident who follows the business OF

opportunity to write you a letter, as
I promised to do. The first few days
after we arrived here, we were very

got job and commenced work for
the "Tucson Warehouse and Transfer

In the first place this is very fine
climate here, that attracts many
people from all parts Of the United
States Asia pretty well represented

lightly rolling plain, with ranges of
mountains on ali sides. A few miles
away some rich mines have developed
in the mountains and it is generally
supposed that there is yet much miners !
undiscovered and undevelOped. The
soil on which the city is built consists
Of hard pan called "COlesia," a kind
OF hmey cement in which nothing can
grow. Holes have to be dug for shade
trees and anerferous soil transported
and filed in the holes so that the
roots can have some nOurishment.

grow here without irrigation, as the
rainfall is very scant. 1t rained here
quite hard Saturday night and cool
wave has been lowering around the
place since and fire is necessary to
warm up the living rooms.
AS person goes from the city they
will find more good soil on the
surface the farther they go and five

have BEEN there is about two and
One-half feet of the richest loan on
top of the 'colesia'' which is of vary
ing depth from three to five or six
feet thick. Water can be found
eighty feet beneath the surface, it
is of good quality and seems to be i'm
ineXhaustable quantities, in fact it is
generally believed that there is a
broad sheet of water about eighty feet
down beneath the surface, flowing in
north westerly direction. am now

city.
1T is a different stream of water
from that which flows under the city
and Is softer and is not affected by
drought the same as the city wells.

it is to be paid for at the rate of S1.25
