Cortalnly tho showing Is a most cred itable one, and every contributor can rest assured that his money will bo well spent and that it will bring to thd soldlor bays a vast amount of com fort, entertainment and healthful phy sical exercise in addition to surround ing them with moral environments that they would not otherwise possess. In the appended list, tho difference In tho subscriptions of tho various towns Is not tin much duo to lack of lntorest In tho soldier boys as to lack of organization In tho subscription campaign. At those places whore the local committees wero aggressive and solicited from everybody, tho sums were largo; while at othor points where the committees woro loss actlvo the amount Is correspondingly less. Particularly strong is tho showing made by Sutherland and Brady. To this total should bo added tho subscription of tho Union Pacific, which Is to credited to Lincoln coun ty. Tho exact amount of this sub scription could not bo ascertained, but is somewhere between $300 and $500.
