MOST DIRECT. SArrST RFQT Aftin uner rnwir mitiut A A State of Kansas, Clay county, m. In the District Court in the matter of the application to change the name of the City of Clay Center in said county. Notice is hereby given that on the 25th day of May, 1888, a petition signed by a majority of the legal voters of the City of Clay Center will be presented in open court to the District Court of said county praying that the name of said City be changed from "Clay Center" to "Clacine" and setting forth the reasons therefor to-wit: 1st. That tho name of said City of Clay Center is undesirable and unsuitable for said city by reason of being too long.

In two words, requiring two capital letters to write It, and being suggestive of of a small and unimportant village or cross-roads. 2d. That said name is undesirable and inoonvcnU'ut, because of the fact that a city In Clay county, Nebraska, bears the same name, causing a great deal of confusion in the malls and in correspondence, and in travel.
