The third annual meeting oftin
Elkhoru Valley Editorial Assocfatioi
took place in Ainsworth last Saturday
about 30 active vrorkers in the news
paper field being present. The meet
ing was by long odds the best evei
held , especially from a business stand
point. The program was carried ou
almost in its entirety , and the after
noon session was a veritable feat o :
wit and wisdom. Lack of space alom
prevents us from giving a detailed ac
count , but suffice it to say that froa :
the welcoming address of the lion. L ,
K. Alder to adjournment , everything
was good.
In the evening a banquet was served
at Rising's Hall , 100 covers being laid
and the feast was a marvel , surpassing
many we have partaken of in largei
cities. The success of this portion o ]
the entertainment was due to the
heroic labors of the menu committee ,
Mesdames Howe , Porter and Bailey ,
assisted by Mrs. Rice and eight young
ladies , and these ladies deserve to be
placed on the ufree list' ' of every news
paper man who partook of the feast.
The closing act of the association
was the adoption ot the following reso
lutions :

Elkhorn Valley Editorial Association convened

It looks as if it would take several
> ears , says the Texas Stock Journal , to
bring the supply of cattle up to a point
tLat will justify holding young steers
on the range until they get much past
two years old. Threes sell now at
good prices as compared with twos and
beem to be in strong demand. It is
probable that a great many twos will
nave to be taken next fall if the feed
lots are to be tilled.

OMAHA , Dec. 16 , 1898.
To Whom It May Concern :
The bearer of this letter , Dr. W. I.
Seymour , I have known for the past
four or five years and can say in his
behalf that he is an A No. 1 man in
his profession , namely optician and
oculist. He has done considerable work
for both myself and family during the
time of my acquaintance with him and
E have found his work very satisfactory
and can recommend him to anyone
needing his services.
Yours very truly ,

Dr. W. I. Seymour , Omaha , Neb. :
Dear Doctor In relation to the pro
fessional work you have done for my-
aelf and friends , in the fitting of
glasses , I wish to say that I am very
much pleased with the results you
have .obtained and can highly recom
mend you as a skilled specialist.
I trust your trip to Texas will prove
beneficial to you and that the people
of the south will appreciate your work
as highly as your own home patients
do.

Dr. . W. I. Seymour :
Dear Doctor I am very much
pleased with the glasses you have made
for me , as they are far more satisfac
tory than anv I have ever used in the
past. I am glad to echo the sentiment
of your many patients in this city , as
I have never heard anything but the
highest praise for your professional
work. Accept my b st wishes for a
pleasant and successful trip through
the south. Yours very respectfully ,

To Whom It May Concern :
It gives me great pleasure in recom
mending to you Dr. W. I. Seymour ,
personally known by me to be very
sompetent , honest and conscientious.
Should you need glasses you will not
find any who will give you better sat
isfaction than Dr. Seymour.

PROFESSIONAL VISIT TO THIS CITY
OF DR. W. I. SEYMOUR.
Many Years of Success In the Correct
Adaption of Lenses to All Forms
of Impaired Sight.
Dr. Seymour brings with him the
most complete line of scientific instru
ments for thoroughly diagnosing and
correcting all known errors of refrac
tion that have ever been collected by
one man in his profession. Many of
these instruments have been especially
constructed for his particular use by
the most prominent manufacturing op
ticians in Paris.
Do not be discouraged because you
have hitherto been unable to find the
assistance in glasses that your friends
flo. True , you may have spent many
aollars and much time in search of per *
feet sight and comfort , but science has
not been idle in this branch of work
any more than in other professions of
perhaps less importance. A master of
his profession and aided by every in
strument known to science for hia
work , Dr. Seymour is in a position sel
dom equaled by the most proficient
men in his line , and certainly never
surpassed.
