The Argentine Advocate Wyandotte County Saturday April 14, 1888 An old gentleman, whose white hair and tottering steps indicated a nearness to four score and ten, remarked that Argentine had great prospects for the future and that ere many years it would either be joined wholly to the great city of Kansas City or it would be a city of at least 20,000 inhabitants. "But," says he, "I wish the time would come when I could get a good sqaure drink of whiskey when I wants its, and not have to go clear to Kansas City for it."
