The popularity of Hammond and

REPORT MAY BE PREMATURE
The reported consolidation of the
Seward Post and the Seward Gateway,
published in The Times on the author
ty of a Seward resident, was a little
premature. The consolidation has
not, as yet, taken place, but is in pro
cess of consummation. B. M. Stone
has sold his interest in the Gateway to
the Messrs. Ballaine and Hoben, as
will be seen by the following from
the Gateway of January 20:
Frank L. Ballaine and Harry V.
Hoben today took over the interest of
B. M. Stone in the Gateway Publish
ing company. The Daily Gateway
will continue as usual under the new
management.
