As per call published in last week's
papor a goodly number of republicans
met at tho cojrt house last Friday
night for tho purpose of organizing a

the constitution and by-laws adopted.
The following ofllcors were olcc'ed for
a term of ono year: President, J. S.
White; first vice president, Horace
Spanoglc; second vice president, Cloyd
Oummings; seeietnry, Jno. Dickerson;
treasurer, C. B. Crone. It was decided
that the regular meetings of the club
should be every Friday evening at the
Red Cloud band room. A committee
of three was appointed to seo about tho
organisation of a marching club, after
which the meeting adjourned until
this Friday evening.
Tho Chief has always beon in tho
habit of giving it's subscribers the best
of it on the offering of premiums for
subscriptions paid in advance. Tho
fact that paper has advanced mater
ially and that no advanco has been
made in tho price of this paper, has
made it imperative that wo have what
is duo us at once. Wo tiavo heretofore
beon lenient, but will bo compelled
soon to place many accounts in tho
hands of a collector to enforco pay
ment. Rather than do this wo will
give as an inducement for thoso pay
ing up to date, a mx months paid up
subscription to the papor and a lino
genuine oil finish portrait of yourself
or a friond, in a splendid frame for
the small sum of $1.03. These por
traits will not rub oil liko tho cheap
crayon pictures, but they wash and
can bo put in a tub of water over night
without injury. Tho portrait can be
mado from any small pieturo, photo,
tintypo, or ambrotvpo furnished. Any
portrait that is not entirely satisfac
tory will not cost you a oont. Wo
have a sample portrait at this ofllce
which must bo seen to bo appreciated.
If you have a loved ono whose picture
you wish enlarged it will pay you to
tako advantage of thia oiler.
