ALLIANCE, NEBRASKA

Do you know Alliance? It's time you did

Alliance is the leading city of western Nebraska and the metropolis of that part of the state known as the Nebraska Panhandle.

Alliance, having complied with the requirements of the laws of Nebraska relating to changing from a city of the second-class to a city of the first-class, has been declared by the governor of the state to be a city of the first-class.

Alliance is headquarters of the Nebraska Stock Growers Association, according to the articles of incorporation. Each year in June the annual convention of the association is held at Alliance, in connection with a three days' celebration, which is attended by thousands of people from the surrounding country and neighboring towns.

Altho headquarters for the ranching interests of the nearby sand hills country, Alliance is not located in the hills but on a fertile plain or table land, on which farming and dairying are carried on successfully.

Many other good things might be said about Alliance and other western Nebraska towns, and will be in future issues, but for the present suffice to add that at Alliance is the home office of The Nebraska Stockman, "Nebraska's exclusive live stock paper."
