An Unconscious
Comparison

There's a steadfast purpose in
Stein-Bloch clothes as firmly sewn
in as the label-whether they are
for formal dress or those in which
you encounter the world in the
street.
They are designed and made
for a man who earnestly strives TO
measure up creditably with his as
sociatcs in business and social life.
Stein-Bloch have always in
tended their clothes to be so care
fully and intellieently made that
they will be compared uncon-
sciously with the kind made to
the order of the fashionables who
diagram what they want.
This tasteful, conservative style,
this fit and tailoring are coupled
with an economy that is a relief
from merchant tailor exactions.
At the store of the leading
clothier in your city-and ask to

Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1909-07-22
Meade County's First News
Paper and Editor

We reproduce on this page, as
nearly as the style of type now
in use will do it, fac-simile of the
first page of the first paper print
ed in Meade county and. possibly
the first one southwest of Dodge
City, and east of the foothills of
the mountains. A word about
the man who edited, wrote the
editorials and news items, solic-
tied ads, set up the forms and
kicked off the entire edition on a
a little job press, will be appro-
pirate and give a better under
standing of the paper, the times
and the locality.
Addison Bennett was born to
be a frontier man and editor.
Sanguine, hopeful, energetic, with
entire faith in him self, his call
ing, and the country in which he
cast his lot, he was forceful in the
affairs of the colony, enterpris-
ing and resourcefn1 in his own
business. Strong in physique
and mind, he never tired of work
and never doubted its beneficial
effect for his neighbors and his
family.
Living in dugout II Ia feet
he, with five in the family, wrote,
set up and printed his paper, did
a rubber stamp and stencil busi-
ness. and later conducted d post
office in it for a time. A letter
from him published in the Fow-
Ter Graphic, in 1886, which he
supplemented in letter to us
in 1903, he tells of the establish
ment of the first regularly estab-
lished post Office in Meade coun-
tv.- Some of the difficulties en-
countered in that undertaking,
oives a fair idea of the character
of the man. Having sent in his
petition for the office he waited
word from the department. AT
ter some time he was advised
that the office had been establish
ed and him self appointed P. M.
That he should go to Dodge City
the nearest post Office, make his
