BOOSTING RIGHT
Novor in tho history of Sutherland
was tho need of a Commercial club
folt more than at tho present timo.
Wo should have a lub to cooperate
with tho towns to tho east and west
of us on the south side Irrigation

direction and wo should be in and
holping to boost. Let's hao a Com
munity club. Sutherland Courier.
CALIFORNIA SNOW
A card to tho Indopondont from A.
J. ' Anderson of Turlock, Calif., says
"Sunday mbrning. January 29, tho
ground was covered with snow. Yes
January 30, it snowed nearly all day,
and tho flakes came down something

Tho Brady vlllago board and clerk
wont to Maxwoll on Tuesday ovoning,
mooting with Maxwoll board, and Mr.
Ilonningston. who was tho successful
bidder for building tho transmission
line from hero to North Platte. Tho
Bady board has glvon up all hopes
that a right of way cai bo secured
west to North Platto, but after a
conforenco with Mr. Honnlngslon
Maxwell decided next Monday to bo
curo tho right of way west, and It
tho effort meets with failure, Mr
Honnlngslon agrees to return tho
bonds to tho twd villages with only
a just expense account for his ex
penditures. So far Brady Is concern
ed, with tho return of tho bonds
Brady can go on negoLatlng with
Gothonburg, where current can be
socurod cheaper than with North
Platte, and tho right of 'way almost
assured. Maxwell can hook on to tho
lino at any time, with tho same
agreomont as drawn up for tho lino
west. Brady Vindicator.

Recently an agent of tho Midland,
Bureau was hero and closed up a con
tract for a four numbor, ?40 course
Wo, with tho fifteen, signed, but let
us say hero it is the last That's final.
Such entertainment courses might not
havo been out of placo back In tho
days of literary Bociety when folks
had very little amusement, and no
placo to go, but now wo cant seo for
tho life of us why tho bureaus should
bo kept In exists nco. Porhaps It Is
because of such suckers as us. Hero
Is tho Idea: Who guarantees us a liv
ing and a big profit? Then why not
tho entertainment companies and tho
talont whoso business Is not a bit
moro "preferred" than oura, bo car
ried about on a chip It used to bo ar
gued that they wore imperativo on
chaugo and only movo tho yard and Dlflt
roundhouso 13 miles runner east oi
Its present location. So wo feel sure
that Oshkosh or Llsco will bo tho
one In lino for tho location, Oshkosh
being 87 miles from North Platto and
about 110 miles from Yodor, but of
courso on tho heavier frolght end
of tho road, tills, If any difference In
distance would bo considered, Bhould
bo tho shortest. Besldo Oshkosh has
an up-to-date, sufficient water and
sowor Bystom, together with a modorn
light plant, and these no doubt will
bo taken Into consideration by tne
railroad officials. Garden County

Most of tho schools of Kolth county , "educational grounds", otc, etc., Rats. To tho Stockholders:
During tho years 1921, tho progress
of tho company in al Ithat it has un
dertaken has beon gratifying and wo
believe that It has been distinctly for
ward.
Tho quality of sorlco rendored has
passed pro-war standards.
Thoro is no reduction In tho de
mnnd for tolophono sorvlco. .
Whllo final figures aro not yot at
hand for tho yoar, wo can assuro you
that tho Increased rato of dividend
lias been earned with a substantial
margin as usual.
H. B. THAYER, President.
Tho Omaha Dally Nows gladly
grants tho roqucst for publication bo
causo this Item is of great interest to
its roadors, to tho pooplo of this
state and ospocially to tho stato rail
way commission of Nebraska.
Especially tho final paragraph, In
which this is Btatod:
"Wo can assuro you (that is, tho
stockholders) that tho lncrcasod rato
ot dividend has boon earned with a
substantial margin as usual."
Tho stock of tho Araorican Tolo
phono and Telegraph company Is now
earning 9 per cont dividends.
Tho Amorican Tolophono nnd Tele
graph company la tho solo owner of
tho Northwest Boll Tolophpno conr
pany, which is asking for permission
to increase tolophono rates In No-
braska, and which has recently boon
pormltted by this stnto railway com'
mission to continue a surcliargo.
Why should thero bo an Incroaso,
or oyon maintenance, of prosont ratos
whon tho real owners of tho North
west 8ystom aro drawing "an In
creased rato or dividend,' of 9 per
cont nnd boBldos aro earning "a sub
stantial mnrgln as usual"?
The public would llko somo light on
tho matter from tho stato railway
