Take Pride in Oar Town.
Tho people of North Platto can point
with prido to their hundreds of
handsome rcsldenco nnd fine bus
ncss blocks, including tho Elks building
representing a value of $35,000.00, tho
Masonic nnd Odd Fellows building onch
worth $30,000.00; tho two handsome
bank buildings, Timmennnn, Walte
math and Keith Neville blocks nnd
their fine church buildings. All of
theso are duo to individual effort.
'Wo will soon hnvo a handsome Fed-
oral building donated by tho govern
ment nt n cost of $110,000.00, and n
fine public library building, erectod nt
a co3t of $14,000.00, a free gift to tho
city. Our Bchool buildings nro a credit
to the city.
What a contrast all theso make to
tho three littlo mcasley shacks erected
by tho city os a homo for its firo de
partment nnd for tho housing of its
city officers and property.
Thero is not a town in tho stnto of
ono thousand population but has mnde
better provision for its firo department
and city officers.
Kearney built its handsome city hall
30 years ago at n cost of $40,000.00
when, it was not half tho sizo of North
Platto. Grand Island built its fine
throb story city hall more than
25 years ago when it wns much nmallor
than North Platto is now.
Schuyler, not half tho sizo of North
Platte, has erected a fine moderns press
brick building for city hall nnd homo for
its firo department
Even littlo towns like Gothenburg
and North Bend arc provided with city
halls adequato to their needs.
Now that there is an opportunity to
securo a building for the city hall and
homo for tho fire department in keep
ing with tho needs of tho city, a build
ing that we will not be ashamed of,
it behooves every well wisher of North
Platto to give tho bonds proposition
their earnest support.
One of tho contractors on tho grading
for tho extension of tho Kenrnoy &
Black Hills branch of the Union Pacific

monco work on tho grading of tho ex
tension of tho Pleasanton branch to this
