North Platte began Its career ns a
saloonless town Sunday morning, nnd
this for tho first time In its history.
It Is true there wns one year In the
early days when no licenses wero Is
sued, but the saloons kept openand dis
pensed liquor under assumed names.
AntlcInatlnK tnc nnai cioso up inn
six saloons pushed tho sale of their
goods as rapidly as possible, and mnny
case lots of liquor und beer were sold
o town as well well as country resi
dents. The llealoy place closed Fri
day night, having practically disposed
of tho entire slock, tho othor nvo
places clcoed promptly at eight bat
urday nlKht. each having reduced the
stock more than was anticipated. John
Den nnd C. T. Whelan had tho most
eoods remalnlntr. this being duo to the
fact that they carried the heaviest
stocks.
Tho saloons closed with compara
tlvoly little disorder. About a dozen
follows who wero Intoxicated and were
shoved out on the streets when eight
o'clock came, whooped or up for
about fifteen minutes, but tho five of
ficers were on hand and tho turbulent
follows wero soon quieted.

Here's Real Paint
House painting isn't
a matter of prejudice
it's a matter of business
and common sense.
That's why you ought
to make sure what kind
of paint your painter is
going to use on your job
or what kind of paint
you buy from the dealer.
Paint isn't like an
apple you can't tell by
looking at it or by bitmg
it how good or bad it
is.
It takes weeks, perhaps
months, and maybe a
year or more to tell
whether it was worth
what you paid.
SWP
stands for Sherwin-Wil
liams Paint (Prepared)
and its fifty-year record
of results means qiiality
and satisfaction to any
painter or property-own
er. Be sure the initials
are on the label, then
vou can count on the
contents being right.
