Former Sidney resident active in Kansas politics
Simon Fishman, once Sidney resident and former Cheyenne County treasurer, visited in Sidney this week at his brother in law Leon Fine's home. He won the Republican nomination for state representative from Greeley County in a tough factional battle.

He founded a Jewish colony in 1924 by dividing a 35,000 acre wheat ranch into 160 acre tracts and supplying each with a house stock and implements, earning wide popularity in Greeley County with his empire.
