COLLEGE VS.. CREAMERY.

Clarendon did not knock the

put a smile on the face Of the

the other $4,000 in securing
similar enterprises. and she will
have a tin bucket brigade worth
more to her than the normal. -

The normal will be a big thing
for Canyon City. but the cream
cry may prove to be worth fully
as much to Clarendon. One but
ter factory may bring another,
and Clarendon become to Texas
what Elgin is to Illinois. Ger
tainly one creamery will put
thousands of dollars of new
money into the pockets of neigh
boring farmers every year, and
it will not be long until the profits
will be reinvested. Within ten
years the Donley County capital
may congratulate itself that it
got creamery instead of a col

Come to think of it don t you
think it likely that a town like

the wherewithal with which to
establish a creamery or any 9TH

likely.

Canyon City won out in the
contest for the location of the
proposed West Texas Normal.
| To the outsiders Canyon was

to give 500, 100 in land and
buildings. -Thurber Journal.

to have surprised more than one,

MORE SOUR GRAPES.

From the Abilene Daily News
issued last Friday we clip the
following:
Parties in this city yesterday
received the news by wire about
1870 that Canyon City had been
awarded the location Of the West
Texas Normal College. and the
news came like a clap Of thun-
der out of the clear sky. 1t was
at first thought joke by some Of
our citizens but the truthfulness
of the claim was soon confirmed
by private telegram from Aus
tin. Canyon City is a small city
located on the border of New
Mexico and Texas near Amarillo,
and is the county seat Of Randall
county.
II is 800 miles from the center
of population OF the territory to
be served; is at present hard to
get by rail but it is TO be on the
Santa Fe extension. which will
make it some less difficult Of
access.
The town is about sixteen
miles from Amarillo and within
fifty miles Of the New Mexico
line, and is surrounded by a
thinly populated country. Just
what induced the committee to
locate the institution at this
point is hard to divine. but it is
thought that it was brought
about by a compromise between
Abilene and San Angelo, which
seemed to be the two leading
favoriteS.
The full particulars Of the
fight for the location are not OBJ
tainable at present but will
doubtless leak out at an early
date.
Canyon City bid one hundred
thousand. one hundred dollars
and A. much land as the school
needed while Abilene bid S87,-
800 and sites 10 the value Of $50. .

David Richard Neville, originator of
the HomoaXive system of treatment
will be at the Tieton hotel Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday of this
week for the purpose of introducing
his new method of curing the sick.
Mr.. Neville is the gentleman whose
success in the large cities of Mime
sofa and Washington has gained for
him such widespread and favorable
comment in the newspapers within the
past year.
When seen by a reporter Mr.. Ne
vile said:
II believe my method of introduce
ing my work is different from any
thing you have ever heard of. | do
not charge for my personal treat
ments, although | have followed drug
less healing for 13 years and have
hundreds of cures to my credit under
the old methods. | am in North Yaki-
ma as an educator, and will give the
people of this city the benefit of my
experience and success while instruct
ing them in my Homolaxive system of
treatment. / cannot remain long in
your city, as l have pretty large
field yet to cover before opening my
Sanatarium over on the coast"
An article taken from the St Paul
Daily News gives very clear idea of
the good results obtained from the
use of Mr.. Neville's treatment The
story follows:
MANY stories of remarkable cures
have been reported throughout Min
nesota, but none more wonderful
than the statement that now comes
to the News direct from a Minnesota
woman.
''The case is that of Mrs. Charles
Phillips of Hampton, Mimi, and has
to do with sickness, suffering and
doctoring with a final verdict that an
operation was the only hope. But
that was before Neville got busy with
his new treatment. Now the woman
declares she does not need an opera
ton and that the Treatment stopped
her. virtually on the way to the hos
pital.
ITO the reporter she told the story
ing intense pain for years and after
being relieved in few days, thereby
escaping a dreadful operation.
Mrs. Phillips is bright, intelli-
gent woman. engaged for a time in
educational work and is not fanatical
in her beliefs. AS she herself said,

when asked to tell the story of
her sickness, Mrs. Phillips said:
