Schreiber writes us from Hanford, Wash., in renewing bis subscription to The Democrat another and says: “Enclosed find money order for your paper another year, I can’t get along without.it. Well, lam still among the living although there is hard times out here at present and work is very slack, although I can’t complain. I had my share of it and made good money. They put the fair buildings on the “unfair” list but I think they will straighten it up before long, at least I hope so. Real estate is opening up a little at present since the money panic. Iv’e been busy till a week now. Am taking a rest now till I find something to do, which I think will be soon. I put in 294 days last year at $5 per day, and have put in 15 days this year. The weather is warm and we have roses in bloom and the grass is nice and green. What has become of the “Lonely Ridge” correspondent, as I do not see items from that part of the county any more. News must be scarce there. Wishing The Democrat a prosperous year, I remain, yours truly.”
