With this issue The Tribune begins the twenty-eighth year of its oxistence. It was established January 25, 1885, to fill "a long felt want," and though for the first year or two the receipts were such as to question whether it was needed in tho newspaper field, it finally "got on Its feet" financially and has since with the exception of about four yean in the depression of 1892-1890-made tho publiihor somewhat more than a comfortable living. During those twenty-eight years the publisher has beon subjected to considerable drudgery, but with it all there have been the bright spots that make life worth tho living. The dark spots in life tend to make tho bright spots all the brigh ter. Lost- Thursday in Masonic hall small round gold pin with diamond In center. Finder please return to Welngand store Reason for Change of Route. Secretary Crosby of tho Chamber of Commerce is in receipt of a letter from Honornble Moses P. Kinkaid, referring to the matter of reestablishmcntof sur. vice on the North Platte to Myrtle Star Route, a matter which the Chamber of Commerce had had under advisement for some time. This letter inclosed a letter which was received by Mr. Kin kaid from the Fourth Assistant Post Master General, setting forth tho rea sons why the service was discontinued and why at this time tho department did not feel justified in continuing tho same. The original change was made be- caue of a numerously signed petition from the patrons of the Myrtle, Gar field and Gandy offices, requesting sor vico between those points in lieu of the North Platte to Myrtlo and Garfied ser vice. While this change cuts off the entire north-east portion of our county from any mail service whatever from North Platto, direct, and leaves them with their mail delivered some 48 hours later from this point, the department justifies the action from tho fact that there is nn annual saving in expenditure in the sum of $05.00. It would seem that the only thing can further be done would be to allow a trial of the substituted service for a time and then again present the matter to the department, for the entire pa tronage of the offices mentionod seem to havo been misinformed at to the or iginal petition they signed asking for the change, and are now desirous of tho old North Platte to Myrtle and Gar field Star route service and receive liberal reward.
