We nu t our old time friend, Faul Johnson, a friend of this paper, wlio was glad to meet us, speaking en couragingly of the city and its future. While speaking with Herman St min er, of the Stromer drain ami Lum ber Co., lie said that when the late severe cold weather arrived they had all their coul bins well filled with coal, and a ear sitting on the track, but after thirty days, with a constant effort to keep a supply, what they were able to get, and what they already had on hand had vanished and still there were demands even more ur gent, as the time went on, unfilled. Speaking of the future of Alvo, Mr. Stromer takes a cheerful view of af fairs, and says that the town and surrounding country is one of the best in the state and the Union, and that the country the best on earth, which we second unreservedly. We arc the greatest nation on the globe, what others may say to the contrary notwithstanding. The Stromer Grain and Lumber Co., are ready to meet any and all prices paid for grain, and wiil sell as low as any one coal or J Iumlor.
