zens of Comstock.
Further more, it has been rum
ored that the town was incopor-
ated in All underhanded way.
To this we say that the petition
was circulated all around the
town and every citizen had a
chance to sign it. The petition
was taken to Broken Bow, the
county seat of Custer county, by
two Of the business men of the
town, presented to the county
board in form and the chairman
of the county board appointed a
committee to investigate. That
committee reported favorable, so
the county board declared the
village of Comstock incorporated,
according to the statuates of the
state of Nebraska. The county
board appointed a board of trus-
tees for the village of Coinstock
and everything was done accord
ing to Law.
We, as American people and
citizens of the village of Com
stock want to say that we deny
any statement to the effect that
we were and are the instigators
of getting a saloon in here. We
will perform our duties as near
as we know how and will try and
live in the bounds of the law.
Some of the people of this village
has this board branded as saloon
buns, but we know from where
it comes and consider the source.

The election at Alliance last
week resulted in a victory for the
law and order forces-the prin.
cipal edict being that "the gam
blers must 60" For long time
Alliance has had an extremely
bad reputation throughout the
state and It is to be hoped the
new administration will do a
good job of house cleaning so
that hereafter a citizen of that
place-when away trombone
will not blush with shame when
they say they reside at Alliance,

Thursday. April IL, 1906.

1t is difficult for even the resi-
dent of this state to realize how
rapidly the state is developing.
It's growth, during the past five
years, has been like fairy tale,
but there is every indication that

This is not boom, but a good,
steady growth, based on the
wonderful resources of the state
and the far-seeing wisdom and

April 9, 1906.
1t has been circulated all over
Custer County and other places
that the village of Comstock was
incorporated for the sole purpose
of getting a saloon in here. Now
we want to inform the public
that it is not true and that there
is not one word of truth in it.
Further more, the majority of
the citizens that signed the petit.
ton to have the village of Com
stock incorporated would not
sign saloon petition.
We want to say for the infor-
nation of the public that the
village of Comstock was incor-
porated for the purpose of max

for the purpose of getting in a
saloon. 1t is not for the village

Band Concert Saturday Night.

The band will give its initial
concert on both the north and
south sides next Saturday night
and we know we are not wrong
in saying it will be greatly APP
preciated by citizens. The band
which now numbers sixty-two,
has been practicing regularly

winter under the direction of
Prof. Taylor and attained an
excellence seldom reached by a
country band, rendering in an
almost professional manner the

The new Presbyterian church
was dedicated Tuesday night.
The very unusual part of the
program that is usual on such oc-
casions was that the entire ex-

paid before the date of dedication
was arranged. The services
were presided over by DR..
Thomas L. Sexton of Lincoln,
and the dedicatory sermon was
preached by Rev. Geo. A. Ray, of

Telephone Girl Going

Doubtless the judicious will grieve at
the report the telephone girl in Paris
is passing and that her place is to be
filled by man. 1t is not because she is
too beautiful-which it appears pos
sible for a business. woman to be-or
because she is given to distracting
.peek-a-boo waists and sky -scraping
.pompadours, but because women who
operate French telephones are afflicted

RuffLike the Hat

A very effective autumn toilet will be
accompanied by a neck ruff Of some
soft fluffy texture more often malne
or dotted net. The accessory promises
to be quite as important as hat or
gloves. Such exquisite harmony Of de-
tail lis demanded that the ruff is most
modish when matching the costume,
although If the hat be Of a different
color it is provided to match that.
Very charming ruffs are shown
among the new fall things. A dainty
one Of white maline is delicately
edged with pale blue silk thread.
One OF navy blue is a yelling net,
with big velvet spots.
A shaded brown maline runs through
all the shades. from tawny orange to
deep wood brown.
II the right color is chosen these ruffs
add much to the becomingness Of the
costume.
