Watchman Sawyer claims to have
driven thirty-nine tramps out of
town night before last. This ac

thoroughly competent and the de
partment will in no way suffer by
their election.

charge of the local and news col

columns as well, and all revenues
from the latter source will go into
the treasury of that organization.
There will be local, telegraph and
society reporters, advertising soli
citors and proof readers, and the

It is believed that a large num
ber of farmers of Iowa and the east
ern part of this state will take ad
vantage of thei excursion rates
which the Union Pacific offers from
Omaha to western Nebraska. These
low rates are offered land seekers
in order that they may investigate
the irrigated lands of this section.
It is therefore likely that we will
have a number of the excursionists
in town the early part of next week,
and it is only proper that they be
shown the country by our citizens,
and especially by the owners of
ditches.

wishes to fix the attention of the public upon the

Appropos with the bright spring
season the dental parlors of Dr. F.
J. Morrill are undergoing a siege of
house-cleaning and remodeling and
when the decorators have finished
their work the Doctor may well
boast of .one of the coziest little
offices in the state. The rapidly
increasing patronage of this pop
ular jourig dentist demands more
commodious quarters and increased
facilities. By strict business in
tegrity and superior workmanship
he has built around him a remark
able practice in a short time,-
necessitating the securing of an
assistant in the person of Dr. E.
E. Northru'p, of Chicago, an ex
pert in mechanical dentistry. Time
was when people thought it neces
sary to go to Lincoln or Omaha
when in need of the" services of a
tfr
first class dentist but those days
have passed. With, an equipment
ot the most modern and "up-to-date"
style and the services of a
competent assistant anything in
the way of dental work may be
relied nponAto be' handled in a
legitimate, responsible and satis
factory manner.
