This will indeed bo a credit and an ornament to North Platte and a modern, uptodate structure of this character was needed on this site. Dr. McCabe is to be congratulated On his enterprise and foresight in making this investment but the success uf the building is already assured as offices in it arc being rented fast and Dewey troet will be considerably improved by this building. It will bo two stories in height, pressed brick front on Dewey street, and pressed brick pilaster with paved stueco on the Fourth stroct Bide and the construction is fire proof throughout. Both floors are of reinforced cement and Dr. McCabe will put only the best of everything in it. There will not be a better building for its size in the country and Dr. Mc Cabe's investment with value of lot will total about $22,000. No one has greater faith we might add in North Platte and in her future than this gentleman and he has shown his faith by his works in investing heavily in our city and Bur rounding country. The doctor as we all know is one of the principal owners of our two flourish ing pharmacies, the Nyal and Rexall, and they secure a large part of the de sirable trade hero in tho drug lines. A few lines as to Dr. McCabe may not be amiss as ho has been with us thirty years and is one of our old timers and landmarks, wo might say. After graduating from the University at Buffalo, he practiced for a time at Niagara Falls, and then turned his face toward the sotting sun.

In this home industry and improve ment edition of Tho Tnbuno wo will in clude Our county officials for they are all members of the Booster and Pusher club, first class citizens, and "in" for all worthy, well considered undertakings that help our town and county. We will also touch on the caroors of these gentlemen and their standing in tho community as we note our business and professional men and in referring to Mr. Yost wo would say that on his merits alone he deserves the best wo can say for him. He has a Arte record in all tho rela tions of life and he has friends among all clasecs of this community. He is well adapted for his position ns County Clerk and renders full return in zealous, effective service for every penny he draws from the public 'fUnds. Thisgentlemnn has always "delivered the merchandise" upcniis training has been all round and practical one. Ho was in the mercantile lino for somo time, was also engaged in railroading and his career has Jjeen an activo and industrious one, standing always for tho betterment of moral, political and material conditions, ,, On tho square with all comers, giving to others nil that was coming to them, Mr. Yost has ever been tho right kind of n citizen and a helpful, useful mem ber of the commnity. We would here emifbusizo the impor tant fact that he spnks, reads and writes the German language fluently and a county clerk who knows tho great Germanic tongue can, needless to say, serve tho public interests more advan tageously than ono who does not, other things being equal. Mr. Yost served fpr, several years under Mr. Elliott, is perfectly familinr with the duties of tnq, office, and is widely known in this part of tho state. He is a frank, pleasant gentleman who will go -out of his way to do n "good turn" for the other fellow, and he commands the respect and confidence of our people. Ho is thoroughly iden tified with the best interests of this section and is at all times, an honorable energetic, efficient person whose re cord is clean and creditable through out. ' Men of his type and character nro the kind we need in our public offices. Mr. Yost we would add served in the city council for several years and was a leader in the fight to secure the water works for tho city. There was tremen dous pressure brought to bear on him in various ways to serve private instead of public interests but this gentleman is a sticker when he is in the right and it is to a few men of his typo that we owe our city wateworks. was this city on4 well known among the C.

Mr. Pizer is our oldest merchant and l)ii extensive establishment is tha lead ing commercial feature of our town. For twenty-one years, this gentleman has labored in this comunity, beginning in a small way, but no man had moro faith .in the luture of North Platte and the excellence of this town s a trading point ana me jucauer is inuceu a monu ment to his mercantile judgment, fair dealing, and modern, enterprising, up to date business methods Never has competition been so keen a the last twenty years in the various parts of our state but Mr. Pizcr always welcomed it and ho won out by reason of his sterling integrity, untiring in dustry, and broad grasp of conditions hore. His premises measuro 44 by 90; there are two flyors, and they are literally jammed with everything in tho way of wearing apparel for men, women, and children. No man in the state is a better buyer than this gentleman and when there are bargains in the market ho gets them for North Platto and they aro of the genuine kind Tho sales put on at this store aro fre quent and always tho money-saving kind in which the values are absolutely guaranteed and you will never visit this place any hour of the day in which you will not find patrons here. Customers aro drawn from miles around and our careful, economical purchasers know they are "in" many a dollar. by trading with Mr. Pizer. We look to Mr. Pizer for tho latest and best in tho dry goods nnd ready to wear lines and the corner stones of this emporium aro honesty, enterprise, nnd the best of merchandising methods. We will not enter into details of , this fine stock and tho many admirable fea tures that characterize this splendid store but it fills the bill in all respects nnd ho does moro business than nny other merchant in this section. He has made the greatest success in North Platto but the facts speaks for1 them selves and the Leader needs no com mendation from us. This gentlemnn has unlimited eonfi dehcfl in .North Platto and has invested hea,vily in residence, othor buildings nnd farm lands, No man has been of mora use to our community. Among the various important institu tions and movements with which lie has been connected should be mentioned the Platte Vulloy Bank. He was one of the principal starters of tho hank though lie is not now connected with it. Mr". Pizer does u large business loan ing money on real estnte securities, and has done n great deal of good in assist ing folks when hard pressed financially. The writer hoard from several reliable authorities that many homes and farms have been saved through Mr. Pizer's lonns that would otherwise have been surely lost. Uast out not least, Mr. nzer is one of tho best advertisers in the county as no tins made a s;udy ot puoiicity. His ads always state tho exact truth, are attractively nut toeother. and we nil uiavo implicit confidence in them. Itiere is no busier man in this part of tho country; hi3 word is always good as gold and when there is any enterprise on foot thnt holds promise of benefiting our town, Mr. Julius Pizer is "there'' with hearty and liberal support. This gentlemnn has always sot the paco in North Platte and he is tholivest of live wires, a business man that would comq to tho front in New York or Chi cago, and a citizen that stands for the best we havo in every lino of endeavor.
