Thomas, t'rldent J. Vmrl Thomas, Vice Pres. John W. Thorn, Secretary Entered at th post office at Alliance, Nebraska, for transmission through th mails at second-class matter. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, 11.50 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE THEIR OLD TRICKS AGAIN , x Unable to keep up with The Herald in amount of advertising car Tied and falling woefully behind in circulation, the Semi-Weekly Times again attempt its old tricks of falsehood and misrepresenta tion. Evidently the editor of the Times is still deep in the slough of despondency into which he fell immediately after the spring election (before which time he and his cohorts imagined that they had Alli ance by the tail) when ho was defeated by a vote of more than two to one for the office of councilman. If the aforesaid Times editor could just be his own boss for a week or so he might write a readable editorial but as long as he permits himself to be uesd as the tool of others he will always be looked upon as he and "his'n" were at the last election. An advertisement carried for an Omaha house several weeks ago an a special edition of The Herald furnished the aforesaid editor with an idea that caused him to insert the following deliberate and malic ious falsehood in the Times on July 2nd: "During the paat several months the Herald has made a spec , lal effort to secure out-of-town advertising from mall order houses and at the same time has published articles purporting to criticise he Individual who patronizes the concerns. Like most every nor mal citizen, Mr. Thomas Is perhaps In need of all the money be can make legitimately, but he should not attmept to enrich his own purse at the eipense of the community." The Herald makes no attempt to secure what is known as "mail 'order advertising". The amount of advertising which we have re ceived from commission firms, national advertisers and others is very gratifying to us and comes from publishing a newspaper that "de livers the goods". We believe that we are safe in saying that The Herald during the past twelve months has carried ten times as much of legitimate "foreign" advertising at the Times, in spite of the fact that frantic efforts have been made by the Times to secure the same Ibusiness as much lower advertising rates. Another thing we have found is that the man who endeavors to censure the newspaper for what it carries in its advertising columns is usually the man who advertises about twice a year and sends to the nearest large city for his job printing. If the local newspaper Tiad to depend for its income on this class it would starve to death in three months. BOOST FOR ALLIANCE CHAUTAUQUA The Alliance Chautauqua is to be held in our city from July 26th to 31st. This is an enterprise that is brought here not for financial gain but for the educational benefit of our people. The array of tal ent on the program is such that the enterprise should receive the sup port of everyone. Seldom is there an opportunity to see and hear the Hawkeye ("Hee Club, the Pilgrim Girls Orchestra, Father C. Arn old MeLeod, the Tyrolean Alpine Singers and Yodlers, Dr. I). F. Fox, the All press All Star Company, Major PcIIull X. Travis, the Calif ornia Players, Congressman John V. Abercron.bie of Alabama, and llageiiow and his band of soloists. The price of season tickets is very reasonable. The tent will be pitched in a downtown location easily reached. A chautauqua of this kind is an asset to a town and should receive the financial as well as the moral support of everyone. Buy your season ticket at once and when the chautauqua comes, attend every day if you can do so. Rev. II. J. Young and the others who have taken the work on their shoulders should be shown that their efforts are appreciated. SEE WHAT WE MISSED Before arrangements had been completed for the Stecher-Cutler wrestling match, which brot the world's heavy weight. championship to Nebraska, Gene Melady, the South Omaha live stock commission man who promoted the bout, proposed to The Herald editor that the match be put on at Alliance during the time of the stockmen's con vention in June. Accordingly, an effort was made to secure it for this city, but the Omaha sports, who had confidence in Joe Stecher's ability to put Champion Chas. Cutler's shoulders to the mat, would not consent to having the big event staged anywhere else but in the metropolis. Alliance is getting to be one of the best advertised and best known cities of its size in the west, but had we secured the wrestling match that was pulled off at Rourke Park, Omaha, July 5th, this town would have been put on the map in big, black type for sure. Among the many newspapers that come to The Herald's ex change table, The Xorfolk Press, edited by Marie O'Donnell Weeks, is one of the best, both in local news and editorial comment. Here is an editorial gem taken from a recent issue of The Press: Somewhere, sometime we have read that one's conscience Is the vo:re of God speaking to him directing him to what is right. And with any of us who listen to that still, small voice thtre is no doubt that conscience directs us many times In the way opposite to that pointed out by mere feelings. The soul though spoken of so frequently is unseeable, ungraspable, unreal as material things go. Conscience must surely be the language of the soul and any one who has battled with his conscience knows the contests of the flesh are play contests along side of that we call duty. Some say that the abundance of rain in this country this year is caused by the war in Europe, that is, by the use of explosives in the uaiut-M. ii wiai ue true, wnai.is tne cause oi aroutn in Austria, Uer many and France this summer?
