Local Comment

Should any one have any doubt Of
the value Of advertising in the Times
Republican, ask the versatile comedian,
Tim Murphy, what he thinks about it.
Also ask Manager Busby of the Odeon,
If he considers that advertising in the
T.-R. pays. This week Mr.. Murphy
was disappointed in filing date that
he had counted on. He appeared in
Des Moines on Wednesday night, and
when he learned that he would not
be able to fill his next succeeding date,
began at once casting about for an
open date in some town not too far
from Des Moines, and not out of the
route for his Friday night stand Man
ager Busby offered the desired date.
Murphy reached town Thursday fore
noon, with no billing or newspaper
advertising in advance The T.-R.
columns were eagerly sought. display
advertising, and a story in the news
columns were purchased. The result
was that the paper reaching city
homes at o'clock brought Mr.. Muir
ply good sized audience. and one
that was remarkable Mr.. Murphy
in a brief curtain talk, expressed his
pleasure. his surprise and his thanks
for the advertising medium that could
do this.
County Treasurer Cooper believes he
is taking safe ground in his action
concerning collection of the interurban
special tax. The tax has been assessed,
and is now collectible, but as it has
been explicitly understood that unless
the road were built and in operation
by July /, 1908, the tax would not be
payable, and no move has as yet been
made to start building operations, Mr..
Cooper does not feel like calling upon
tax payers to pay in their money and
then possibly have to pay it back to
them again. The special assessment,
at best, cam not help but result in an
endless amosnt of work in the treas
urer's office.
