TACKIN'O COMPANY IS
MAKING CMKH riMXJRBSS
The field representatives of the Al
liance racking company are report
ing to headquarter that the further
long they get with their work the
Jess thouble they are experiencing
aad the easier It la to dispone of the
company's stock In the campaign
How In progress.
In the outlying districts there was
0Ome skepticism to begin with, this
being because all of the facts and
plana of the company were not fully
SOderstood. For that matter there
a still an occasional Isolated In
stance of a farmer or stockman who
la Inclined to be somewhat backward
a his enthusiasm, but In ninety-nine
eases out of a hundred these doubt
ing Thomases become firm belleTers
mee they hare asked for and re
ceived a careful explanation..
They are beginning to understand
that the Alliance chamber of com
merce, through Its board of direc
tors, would not have endorsed a
proposition carrying with It any
''funny business," and that the state
securities commission at Lincoln,
Which entered Into an even more
thorough investigation of the affair
than did the local organization,
would not have Issued Its official
permit for the sale of stock unless
convinced beyond any doubt of the
honesty and feasibility of the Alli
ance Packing company's Ideas.
The governor of Nebraska, In a
public address at Alliance a short
time ago, took occasion to voluntar
ily give a ringing endorsement of the
company and its seeming possi
bilities. The scores of shrewd business
men In this part of Nebraska, who
have purchased stock In the corpora
tion, are without exception pleased
with their investment, and they are
spreading the good news among
their friends. There will come a day,
fit course such things always hap
penwhen the Alliance Tacking
company, with a big plant In opera
tion, will be seen as a reality by th
few who still doubt; and the latter
will have an excellent opportunity to
say to themselves, "Why didn't I see
It before?"
O. M. Durns and party returned
Saturday fro ma trip to the Rio
Crande valley, after spending an en
joyable ten days In the sunny south.
A number of Box Butte county peo
ple were In the party and they pur
chased a total of $18,900 .worth of
landwhile In the valley. Other mem
bers of the party expect to return
there soon and purchase land. .Mr.
Burns expects to make future trips
to the valley with people from this
part of the sate.
The United States is now feeding
3,000,000 Europeans at least one hot
meal a day. So when all these reds
are deported they still stand a chance
of subsisting on America's bounty.
A number of Germans in New
York city who applied for admission
to cltlxenshlp were rejected because
It was found that after taking out
their first papers they had registered
for military duty with the German
consul, says the Baltimore American.
The war has settled once and for all
the question of dual allegiance. No
man can now be an American citizen
unless he Is willing to follow the
American flag. Record.
Many a man has a great head
from other than Intellectual causes.
A little brief experience on the
stage stimulates lofty ideals as to
salary.
The man who gets there acts as
his own crutch; he doesn't lean on
others.
Think before you act, but don't
spend too much time thinking.
