The new firm ol Johnson, Lorenlz & Co. who have established a first class clothing store at this place and in connection therewith opened up a tailor shop, have supplied a long felt want among our people. They are of Aurora Nebraska and are very pleassot gentlemen to do business with. Mr. Johnson has a fine cloth ing store and tailoring establish meat at that place and they have •utlicient capital to keep the stock in an up-to-date grade. Everybody is glad that we have such a place of business, even the business men and merchant of the town are glad that it is so. They report a very satisfactory business for the opening week and on one day took $108 00 worth of ^ orders for tailor made suits. We bespeak for them a successfull bus iness. Call around to their place of business and get aijuainted with them. AN INVITATION. Having moved into the Travis store building which I puruhased a few months ago, 1 invite all bis ami my own customers, in fact everyone to call. I have a very large and complete assortment of good, all fresh and of the best. My prices are as low as tiie lowest and prompt attention will be given to everyone. Plenty of room now to show goods. Call and see our assortment and lear our prices whether you waut to buy or not. Yours Respectfully, O. F. Petersen. President Mitchell of the Miners IJnioD, as a witness in the commiss ion trial, proves to he equal to the occasion. He has given his cross examiners some very pointed an swers tothe long list of interoga tories. He seems, however, to be very corteous iu his replies and cre ated a feeling of mirth amoDg the the spectators. Governor elect Mickey’s plurality kwas 5,255. while the balance of the ^republican state ticket was elected by pluralities ranging from 11,500 to 14,000. And still the Woild Herald, in a lengthy article which was coppied by the Times last week, waa trying to figure out bow it all hap pened. The only solution which we can give for this wide difference in the vote, is that the de nocrats sac rifised the populist part of the tick et in their effort to make their man Thompson, who, according to the official returns ran about 6,000 ahead of his ticket. This shows that the demos were hard aftei the ap pointive power. A CHANCE THAT MEANS SOME THING. Tha following letter from presi dent Hargis ought to open the eyes of the youDg people of this locality who are ambitious for a start in life. This college is certainly doiDg a great work: Grand Island, Neb., Nor. 17, ’02 To The Editor. My Dear Sir:—I have read the complimentary notice you gave the Grand Island Business and Normal □College last week and want to thank you most heartily for the same. This school was established nearly 20 years ago and we ure proud of its splendid success, but this year has broke all previous records, both in attendance and educational results. If you can encourage more of the youDg men and women of your local ity to enter our college, you will do ihem a great service as we are un able to supply all the demands for our gradaates. Within the past week we sent out to good positions, the only five ad vanced students iu our business de partment, one of them, Seward Ben ton by name, who is a farmer boy and only 1C years old, was sent U Alliance, Nebraska, where he gets 50,00 per month to start with. ThiB school allows one year’s time on expenses and more if needed, so that any ambitious young person can graduate and pay for same out of his or her salary after securing a position. I will be glad to send a catalogue free to any of your readers. Again thanking you, 1 am Yours truly, A. M.
