Verne McDonald is authorized to act
aa our agent and correspondent at
Atkinson. He is authorized to solicit
subscriptions, advertising and job work,
and collect and receipt for the same.

Fbohtibb a good advertising medium,
aa it has a large and growing circulation
in the territory that is tributary to that
city. Any favors shown Mr. McDonald
will be greatly appreciated by the man
agement Editob Fbontieb.
To tlu Atkinson Benders.
Atkinson being the strongest republi
can precinct in the county it is only
$*4' just that she should have republican
newspaper representation, and as the
disposal of the Graphic has repriyed
;V her of that, the . O’Neill Frontier has
assigned this department.of the paper to
' > - her use.
It is understood that this department
is entirely tot Atkinson, and is to be
v ; used for her benefit and advancement
just as fully as if published within her
limits, and I assure you that should I at
any time feel inclined to make any
comments on or about. O’Neill, I should
<%r' do so as fully as if they were to be pub
- lished in an Atkinson paper, although,
of course, It is to be hoped that O’Neill
will conduct herself in such a way that
she will not need any "jacking up." I
, , trust that in the near future Atkinson
will hays a republican paper of her own.
