AMONG HERALD SUBSCRIBERS
Subscription business was unusual
ly alack during the summer and ear
ly fall, but the many friende of The
Herald will be pleased to know that
K has been a great improvement
within the last few weeks. Old sub
scribers are renewing their sub
flcriptfona and we have been getting
quite a number of new subscribers
lately, with prospects that the num
ber of new subscribers will continue
to come in at frequent Intervals,
which we trust they will.
James I'otmesil of lxmg l.ake has
been one of The Herald's friends
for a good while and has given the
paper considerable patronage In the
way of advertising and printing, but
on account of taking so many other
papers has not been a subscriber un
til last Saturday. He called at our
office while in town and subscribed,
paying $3.00, for which he has a re
ceipt on subscription to January 1,
1914, and also has one of the prem
ium wall charts.
a a
Mrs. M. E. Bernhardt, 401 Toluca
avenue, is one of a number of sub
scribers that paid last week to Jan
uary 1, 1913.
a a .a
A. Gregory, one of the C. B. ft Q.
dispatchers at Alliance, is one of
The Herald's reliable subscribers;
that is, he can always be relied up
on for a word of encouragement
and hts patronage to help the paper
along. He was the first caller last
Monday morning to pay on subscrip
tion. He left $3.00 and took one of
the premium wall charts with him.
C. E. Wilson of Ellsworth and
young Mr. Aspden, who works for
him, rode up to Alliance on horse
back last Thursday. While in town
they favored The Herald office with
a call. Mr. Wilson ordered his
name placed on our subscription list,
paying for the paper to January 1,
1913.
H. I. Dalnton orders his Herald
sent to Ong, Nebraska. He does
not inform us whether he has loca
ted in that place but we suppose he
hate.
NOT IN THE HERALD BUILDING
Mention was made In the Alliance
papers latt week of the arrest of
seven persons for playing poker a
week ago last Saturday night. We
discover that there Is a mlsunder
standing In town in regard to where
the game was being played and the
arrests made. It was in the rear of
the building at 206 Box Butte ave
nue, occupied by a barber shop, the
building formerly occupied by The
Herald. The Herald Is now located
at 121 Box Butte avenueand it hap
pens that there Is a barber shop in
the same building. The report that
the poker game was in the rear of
a barber shop in The Herald building
has lead some to think that it was in
the building now occupied by The
Herald office, which is incorrect.
We make this explanation, not that
we car anything about the exact
spot where the game was pulled off
and the arrests made, but simply to
correct the misunderstanding above
mentioned.
P. O. CLERKS WANT SUNDAY
Farmers, take your but
ter and eggs to the Fair
Store and get the highest
market price.
Dr. Boland, phone 65.
For several years post post office
clerks and others have agitated the
question of dispensing with the dis
tribution of malls on Sunday. The
dispensing with Sunday mails has re
ceived an Indorsement so nearly un
iversal that it has been a surprise to
those who favor as well as to those
who oppose. It seems that a good
many people who make use of the
Sunday mall would prefer to dis
continue doing so if others, especial
ly their competitors, would also cut
It out. As far as this paper is con
cerned we are opposed to unneces
sary Sunday work, not only from a
moral view point, but from an econ
omic stand point as well. We be
lieve that, on the whole, six days of
labor and one of rest will produce
as much in results in Industrial or
commercial pursuits as seven days
of labor without an intervening day
of rest.
STORK VISITS ALLIANCE
On last Saturday evening the stork
called upon Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Kl
.sass, while they were visiting at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Boone
in this city.
He left for theJr comfort and care
a ten and a half pound bahy boy,
who has been named Merle Clinton.
Leave your order at the Co Oper
iatve for assorted case can goods
and get regular case prices.
WE TAKE IT BACK
Last week The Herald stated that
the Alliance police force had arrest
ed seven sports. We were mistak
en. There were stx sports and one
four-flusher. The person reporting
the Incident to The Herald furnish
ed us with the names of ihe seven
persons and requested that they be
published but we could not see that
the publication of those ' names
would do any good, and passed the
matter up, mentioning the incident as
a matter of news and in a way that
we thought would be appreciated by
the seven persons concerned. While
we do not sanction the violation of
law in any way, we do not think that
playing a friendly game of poker Is
the worst thing in the world, or In
Alliance, and thought the boys had
been sufficiently punished with the
fine without having the newspaper
make an unnecessary thrust at them.
Six of them seem to have appreciat
ed our position in the matter and
have acted like real sports but the
other evidently does not know when
he is treated well.
CAU3E FOR THANKSGIVING
We are pleased to note that Miss
Jean Stuckey, the eleven year old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. B.
Stuckey, whose illness has covered
the period of the past seven weeks.
Is now recovering and all hopes are
entertained for her recovery.
A common cold developed into
diphtheria, and this disease left the
little girl's system depleted, the
heart especially being weakened.
The many friends of the family
will rejoice with them this Thanks
giving day that their number is unbroken.
