He does not pretend to sell all the lumber in town; hasn't got enough of it on hand yet to supply all the demand; prob ably never will sell it all. but what he does intend to do is to keep the price down to right figure in the hope and reasonable expectation that by reason of his agency in thus pro tecting the people he will be given a fair share of their patronage. And he has learned as never before the value of advertising.

A. Redewill has received letter from a Mir. Ludoviski. noted pian- ist, who desires to visit Phoenix dur ing fair week and who asks him if he can secure rooms in a family fond ot music" Mir. Redewill formulated a re- ply which he brought to The Repub- lican for publication. After it's peru sal there was lurking suspicion that it was not original and this fact was, made known to him. He was outraged |, to think that anybody should think that the idea was original.

The Kaiser as a Booster.

The epidemic for municipal progress

and which originated in America is
now spreading over Europe and has
even riveted the interest of Kaiser Vii
helm. Berlin has SucCumbed to Is
influence and with three million club
is striving TO induce the suburban
towns to come in under one municipal
head. In getting ahead OF Berlin, Rock
Island saved itself the blush. The
question is will Berlin adopt methods
for its growth that will surpass those
in America? While no comparison eX
lists between Rock Island and Berlin
it is simply interesting to note that IN
seeking to expand the population OF
this city the people prove that they
are not so slow as Othe places in this
country which permit far-away Be-
lin to get ahead of them in the Amer

been contracted for by English lords
who have eXterminated the rabbits
and hareS on their shooting preserves

sport. Mrs. Nellie Madden of Wau-

north of Huron, S. D., from the mar
ket, believing its value has enhanced
UNNECESSARILY by the demand for
prairie dogs with which it is overrun,
says the Kansas City Journal. 1t is
believed that the English nob!emen
have encountered another Yankee game
and that the character of the prairie
dogs has been miSrepresented to them.
The animals are the size Of an over
grown rat. live in communities, their
holes connected with outlets every rod
or two. They are spry enough to
arouse the sporting blood of the Brit

holes or if dead their fellows quickly
drag them in.
