Yesterday was Thanksgivings
Day and the day was properly OBJ
served in Cuibertson. The people
OF this city have much to be thank
full for this year. The farmers in
the vicinity had beautiful crops
and the price OF their produce was
and is high, consequently the
business men of Culbertson have
prospered as never before in the
history Of the town. The Search
light also has reason to be thank
full, for it has prospered ever since
its first appearance in the town
nearly eight years ago, and this
season is no exception to those Of
past years. The spirit of love and
thanksgiving fills all hearts and it
is well that it should be SO.

The regular school tax we believe
is four mills and in addition there
to there is a special tax of ten mills
again this year in District No. II.
This special tax will probably be
greatly reduced next year IT not
eliminated entirely, but people
living in town will have a city tax
to pay not exceeding ten mills, so
some Of us will have to pay as
much taxes next year, If not more.
But its no use to kick TO the Coun-
ty commissioner. especially after

make their hand stronger they stood
ace high with the fighters.
When Rickard came along and
asked Gleason to go in with him on
the. $101 900 proposition, Jack re-
allied that the fighters were bound
to give it consideration. AS both
Jeffries and Johnson were agreed
that under any and all circumstances
Gleason must be one of the pro-
moters, he cast his lot with Rickard,
after securingfi Coffroth's consent to
the new alignment.
In this connection, it is stated,
Gleason's hold was so strong that
had he not Joined hands with Rick
ard, the fight would have gone to
despite the fact that Richards bid
was the best. Johnson and Jeffries
did not feel that Rickard alone could
handle the battle and make a sue
cess of it, because of his lack of ex-
perience, and as they were favorably
inclined toward Gleason, for other
reasons than his experience, they
practically insisted that Gleason
must have an equal share in the pro
motion of the fight, whether it went
to Rickard, Coffroth or some one else
