We Will Excuse the Colonel.
If Colonel Phillips of the Reporiwi
needs any time in which to devote him
self to" his own town of Iiidianola.in
behalf of the good people of McCook ,
THE TRIUUNK will excuse him from
devoting so much of his valuable space ,
time and gray matter to McCook and
her citizens. There are some interest
ing chapters of local history the colonel
might enlarge upon : The watch factory ,
ochre mine and mill , and grange store
etc. might make an entertaining sympo
sium for Jasper's facile , vigorous and
humorous pen. If the colonel will un
dertake to sweep clean before his own
local front door , he will have less waste
and idle time on his hands in which to
malign , misrepresent and 'roast * ' his
busy neighbors. The advice is worth
the trial and effort ; and the result will
always be beneficial.

tion for a re-hearing , last week , there
was nothing left the company to do butte
