It is said that on tho first of this
mouth there wero on the Union Pacific
pay-roll at this terminal or associated
with the allied Interests, a total of
nine hundred and seventy persons. Of
thoso probably nine hundred aro men
of voting age. which means that about
hrflf our voting strength derive their
support from tho railroad. No. Platto

A colony of beavers have made tholr

Is watched with Interest by a number
of people. It is unlawful to kill tho
animals, but a land owner can secure
permit to kill them upon showing that
thoy are proving destructive to trees
pn his land. Wo understand that A.
C. Burton, who owns land on Medi

beaver colony will make application
to exterminate them as they are cut
ting down many of his trees.

It Is hoped that tho bids will not bo

On of our oldest railroad employes
says that from what ho learns not
over thirty por cont of tho employes
at North Platto aro opposed to tho

Tho Tribune's artlclo on "Looking
Backward" aroused considorablo In
terest among tho older residents es
pecially, and there has arisen consid
erable speculation as who is tho old
est continuous rosldont in tho city. No
ono questions W. II. McDonald as hav
ing lived tho longest period in tho
county, but his earlier years wore
spent at Ft. McPhorson. Probably T
C. Patterson has been a rosldont of
North Platto for a longer porlod than
any other porson, and probably P. J

handled nothing but good cars, have now sold
Dodge Brothers cars for almost 5 years, and the
Chandler line for over 2 1-2 years. I know
these cars are good, as I have personally put
them to all tests. Knowing they are good, I
will back them to the limit in the hands of my
purchasers.
'Responsibility and Stability of the
Manufacturer.
I am proud to say that I represent two cars in
which there has been no great mechanical
change in the past five years. They were good
products of the best engineering genuis in the
country and they have kept good. Dodge Bro
thers plant is the second largest in the industry
and employs over 18,000 men. Their capital
and genius seems unlimited. The Chandler
factory goes into its seventh year with the largest
production behind them in 1919 that they ever
experienced and have increased their factory for
an 80 per cent larger production for 1920.
Such makers have always built for quality first,
and the result has been that the buying public
have put. their products in a class by itself.
Never have they been forced by small production
or inadequate resources to raise their prices
unduly as has been most common this past year.
Try comparing Dodge and Chandler prices with
those of any other line of car you know.
Local and dependable Service for the
buyer. x
I have always believed that local service meant
more to the buyer and more to me in continued
business with the same buyers, than anything
else. I carry repair parts in stock for my two
cars, and have limited our repair department to
work on only those cars we have sold. We
know these two cars, we can give you better
and more intelligent service at less expense, than
if we were trying to take care ol every make. A
permanent business must mean continued busi
ness with your old customers, and as they are
satisfied, with their friends and acquaintances.
Our chief aim is to satisfy all our owners as long
as they have our cars. Such service makes this
a safe place to buy both your passenger car and
your truck transportation.
I invite you to como in and talk over your particular needs in the motor car line for
next year, and would advise that you do not wait too long. Tho good standard cars are
going to ho much more in demand this year and production will he far short of filling
the spring demand I predict a much grcal er shortage than last spring. By the 10th of
March, there Avill not bo a standard car on tho floor of any North Platto dealer which
you can buy for immediate delivery. If you can get your order in now, we will protect
you on a delivery date, those who wait will lake their turn in waiting for delivery, when
the cars are availablt. Today is not a day too soon to -get your order filed. Buy when
you can buy at the fair prices now on Dodge Brothers and Chandler cars, they may bo
forced upwards any day.
