Trips NEW TOWNS
Rivalry Between Lamro and Winner
Ends When Winner Wins


Gregory-There are many new towns
being built in Trip county, which
lies just west of Gregory county in
this state, and was opened for settle
ment in the spring Of 1909. The towns
of Lamro and Colombo We're al eady
established in the new country, Lam
ro being about tue center and already
designated as the county seat. The
government opened also the govern
ment townsites Of Witten, Roseland,
Wewala and McNeely.
Roseland is in the northeastern
part of the county, Wewela in the
southeastern part; NcNeely in tne
south central part and Witten In the
northwestern portion. McNeely ha'
not fourished because of its poor l)-
cation. Wewela and Roseland, the
postofIices at these places are desig
mated as augusta and Hamill respe I
ively( are small inland trading POINTS
with but few buildings, though do
a good business Wtten was started
prematurelv by an addition of flrt'
acres of decided Indian land TO the
townsite Oeing plated and so III
lots, so that there are really two town
located about quarter or a mlle
apart and, as may be expected In ch
circumstances seemingly unable to
consolidate or get on good terms with
each other PostOtli es are also main
tanned at Millboro, Ciearfeld, lde H.,
Kenyon and several other places for
the convenience Of the new settlers.
With the settlement of the county
the Western ToWnsite company Whli n
owns the town of Dallas in this coun-
tv, secured concessions from the Z. a.
n. w. railway and was granted the
privilege of selecting the townsites
for the North Westerns extension
into Tripp county.
Citizens OF Colombo made a deal
with the Northwestern whereby the
road is to enter their town. From that
point it strikes straight out to h.
northwest and hits the tOwnslte OF
Winner, selected by the Western
Townsite company, two and half
miles northeast from LamrO. the old
est town and the county seat. Kun
ming then almost due west the rCal
will pass through Jordon, and eni a
Carter on the Mellette county line
Both Jordon and Carter belong to the
Western Townsjte company.
A bitter fight between Iamro and
Winner was practically settled bv the
citizens of Lamro securing good 10
cations in Winner and nearly ! o
them moving there. Lamro now has
only a few buildings some of viii r
are still to be moved to Winner, but
it retains the courthouse and count,
seat. At the first election however. al
which the question of permanent
county seat for Tripp county Is b
mitted to the voters. the location Wi
likely be changed from Lamro to Win
ner
Winner is about a year old and /
a thriving town of over 600 people
1t has a splendid townsie, siopins
gently to the north. and neNt year Wi
be a railroad town.
Colombo. the first town west of Dai-
las, has enjoyed a steady subs an ia
growth. but has had no boom. Tn'
railway grade has almost been com
pleted into Colombo.
Jordon has as yet had but l1ttl
growth Carter the terminus of tn
new line has had a substantial growth
so far. all of the buildings erectet
there being large and costly. Il is d $
tined to be one of the largest town
in the new county.

McCook county fair, Gus Sesbkie, q
ieweler of Montrose, was struck in the
head by baseball bat, thrown from
the home plate by one of the batters.
Stunned by the contact, it was
thought for a time that the man
would not recover, but at midnight
the attending physicians gave out the
word that his chances for recovery
were good, and that he has sustained
only a severe fracture OF the skull

True independence.

You will always find those who
think they know what is your duty
better than you know it. 1t is easy in
the world to live after the world s
opinion; it is easy in solitude to live
after our own; but the great man is
he who, in the midst of the crowd,
keeps, with perfect sweetness, the in
dependence of solitude-Emerson.

Concerninu Ladies' Hats.

The fall millinery season is on and
ladies study the Fashion Notes OF news
papers and magazines so that they may
know what their fall hat should be like.
Through the aggressive methods of large
manufacturers, ladies are now enabled to
buy correct stylish hats of their, home
dealer and especially SO if such dealers sell
hats from the foremost establish
ment Of the West, the firm OF
Blumenfeld, Locher & Brown Co, known
to the trade as the Progressive G SIS.
Millinery House of Milwaukee. Esfs sfA
The peculiar advantage of manu- EsespfEzAN
featuring in Milwaukee enables Ess5fSSyT;4Y
this firm to offer their product ~uANtt
at lower prices than can ordi- U
narily be obtained by dealers, and the
general customer thereby gets the benefit.
When you 90 shopping for your new hat
ask the saleslady to show you a hat with
a b. L. b. Label. 1t will insure you a
frst-class, high grade, stylish and milllner
made hat at very reasonable price.

The present administration may
be a business administration, but it
isn't the kind of a business admin
istration that most business men
would pattern after. AS an example
of the Stubbs business administra-
ton, it took about one million more
to run the state this year than it
did last. The voters attention is
also called to the fact that under
the Leedy administration the state
taxes were S1,333,945, then we had
a population of about 1,166,7S7, the
cost being about S1.00 for ev-
ery man, woman and child in the
state. Under the Stubbs business
administration, the state taxes were
S3,195, 5,354,00 with a population
OF 1,7O7,491. Or a cost of about
$3.50 for every man, woman and
child. In addition to this the state
received about 100000 from the
federal government which was US
ed. This would run it up to over
$500, or more than double. Can
the voters call this business ad-
ministration?

Great sorrow is expressed

Great sorrow is expressed by
Editor AXline in last weeks Cresset,
because Marion Grouse accepted the
nomination for sheriff after more
than one hundred of the party vot-
ers voted for him at the primary,
unrequested. Mr. AXline cites the
fact that County Treasurer Groen-
dycke, Democrat, has no opposition
and therefore, he thinks, Mr.. Grouse
should decline in favor of Sheriff
Mathews, Republican. In the argu-
ment he overlooked the fact that S.
w. Ireland Republican candidate
for county clerk, also has no oppo-
sition, which ought to balance the
treasurership. We think that the
voters of both parties acted wisely
in conceding these two offices to
the present incumbents for they are
both good officers and have given
unquestioned satisfaction, but in
the case of sheriff dissatisfaction ex-
lists, and when a great number of
people insist on thing, all the pol
iticians in christendom can't thwart
them. Mr.. Grouse would be little
less than an migrate if he declin-
ed the nomination, having come to
him in the spontaneous manner in
which it did.

useless salaried hangers-on in Kan

not expect that he will exert him

The campaign in Kansas is now

one. There is every prospect that
we can win, but how can we win?
Only by hard work on the part of
every Democrat in Kansas and
every Democrat voter in Kansas vot-
ing for Hodges and his associates on
the Democrat ticket. Stubbs claims
a lot of Democrats are going to
vote for him, but why should they g?
What has he to offer? an admins
tration that has cost the state twice
as much as any other governors. He
has grand standed up and down the
state telling what he would do, but
will some one tell what he has
done? AS between Hodges and
Stubs there is no comparison.
Hodges is the better qualified man
of the two. His record stands out
above reproach. He is not a grand
stander, and would be much more
of a credit as governor than would
Stubs. Hodges record has never
been questioned. Stubs cannot say
as much. There is no question but
what the Democrats have the bet
ter candidate, a stronger man: then
why not elect him governor? Let's
all boost Hodges and the ticket, it's
our time. Will all Democrats stand
by the ticket? ~

In glancing over the different
tickets and deciding how and for
whom you will vote this fall, do not
overlook w. B. Clarkson of Kiowa,
Democratic candidate for register of
ceeds. Mr.. Clarkson only lacked
six votes of being elected clerk Of
the district court two years ago and
many of his friends advised him to
contest; but he declined to do SO,
explaining that he preferred to abide
by the returns regardless Of any
wrong that may have been done him
in certain precincts. His majority
this year should be so large that
there will be no grounds for a con-
test OF the part Of either lin or his
opponent.

Now that Theodore Roosevelt has

are claiming him, does anyone know
just yet, where he stands? True he
has pointed out all the evils that ex-
ist. He has told you about the big
trusts and combines, and threatened
to put them out of business, but as
a matter of information, did not
nearly all of those corporations grow
bigger and bigger during his ad-
ministration? Can the Honorable
Teddy point out one trust that he
broke up while president? Has he
pointed out remedy? If he has,
will some good follower of Roosevelt
tell the people what it is? True,
these conditions exist, but how does
Roosevelt intend to remedy them?
What did he do during his eight
years as president to help these
conditions? Did not these condi-
