We congratulate him on the completeness Of
his justification:
Dock Thompson is reporting oil over this
city that We have made our garden In saw
dust pile! This is the most unmitigated
Islander ever perpetrated in this be-slandered
and slanderous city. We shall initiate the
example Of our illnstrious friend, Senator
Neal, and forthwith file an information
against the Dock, before Mayor Gibson!
We need hardly say to our "numerous
friends and admirers, !" that We use saw-dust
in gardening for three special purposes, to
Wit: LIST. It 10 worked with very little troubled
I'd. We think it an admirable fertilizer! Sd.
SAw-dust gardens are not troubled with
weeds!

Rev. Henry Clay Dean is man of genius, -
one OF the best stump speakers in the Demo-
cratic party, and one OF ito latest recruits
He is genuine squatter sovereign and an
admirable representative Of that type Of Dem
ocrats. His nomination would be oompi-
mentsry to the large body Of Wings who have
gone over to the Democratic party and now
furnish it brains,-suoh as Clsgett Of Keo-
