'Oh. well, II YOU hearts so set on

from whom she had Just won are due

APPRECIATION

1t makes us swell up with
appreciation when we think of the
encouragement given the Pioneer
during the asst few months while
we have handled the rudder. The
past two months we have added
over two hundred new names to
our list and each ana every
time we have been offered words
OF encouragement. We have
tried to give the people a real
newspaper. and from what we
hear and are told we are climb.
ing the ladder at about four rounds
at time.
We have given you the news
each week, and now Mrs. T. Prop.
er comes to the front and offers to
handle the poetical end Of the
paper tor us. With the addition
OF this department one can readily
see that we are trying our best to
please you all. That was our in.
tentlon when We took the paper
in hand. We are here to please
the people and not to be pleased.
We want the news and are work.
ing day and night to get it, and,
we are very thankful to the vari.
GUS ladies of the the city who are
also trying to max e the paper bet
ter by contributing what news
they can gather.

Buy At Home
and Save Worry

The buy at home spirit is one
that should take pos session of us
individually and collectively, and
by adhering to the policy in O. rig
orous fashion in the longrun there
will be double credit on the
right side Of the ledger. Ones
peace Of mind is considered III
this nerve racking world, and con.
tentment is state Of bliss not
easily secured.
1t is a truism as old as the hills
that ''all that glitters is not gold'
and viewing bargains" by the
aid OF the catalogue furnished by
a concern 500 or more miles away
has bsen the means Of producing
disappointments and head aches.
1t is therefore preferable to pat
ronize your home merchant, and
the wants of Wibaux citizens are
not SO many or diversified that
they cannot be supplied right here.
Besides, a spirit Of pride in help
ing to build up a thriving COM
munity should be taken into con-
sideration; the merchant whom
you meet every day and whom you
know for his square dealing is far
preferable to deal with than the
catalogue houses which in many
instances seldom deliver the goods
at least Of the quality you
thought you should get.
Therefore when you have dol.
lar that is not working and you
figure on spending it, spend it
here where you are certain to re-
ceiyh one hundred cents in ex-
change. II your merchant has
not the article wanted he will get
it, and as the policy Of live and
let live is paramount among our
merchantile houses from a busi-
ness standpoint as we'll as from a
desire to keep your money here,
it would seem prudent for all to
trade at home.

On last Saturday, the contest
proceedings against John M.

tiful Sunshine, that is as far as
$. B. .Chappell of this city is con-
,cerned. The Gazette has been
handing the people column after
column all about why and how
Chappell should be seated, and it
even went SO far as to state that
the contest was started because Of
what it had said in previous
issue. Of course, all the Wibaux.
ties know that the Gazette man
has his own AK to grind, and a
great many are watching his many
kindly moves to see if grievances
OF a political nature can be for
gotten after limited amount Of
the SO called beautiful sunshine
Mr.. Chappell, we believe did
not go into this affair Of his own
free will, but was influenced by
certain Glendive attorneys who
also had an ak to grind and a
grievance to settle, but Mr.. Chap.
pell is too far sighted to be brought
INTO an affair of this kind and on
Saturday he withdrew his contest.
and John NJ. Boardman will un.
doubtly 60 into the senate with
out any stain uponllis name what
soever. Mr.. Chapren is satisfied
with the election and by this last
action, that of withdrawing his
contest proceedings he has shown
himself a good loser and if ut
some future time he desires to
again run for the Office, the people
OF old Dawson will put him in
with the largest majority ever
recorded.
This will undoubtly show the
Gazette editor that our little city
has some good losers although, he,
himself does not belong to that
crowd. He undertook to boost
the Republican party in the
campaign and because he made a
few political enemies, the genial
editor has been handing the public
