auce, and il well worthy Of an attractive name.
A few months ago, when much farther from
completion than 1t now is, the subject OF what
shall We call it z" was discussed, but no conen-
sion arrived at. Would it not be we'll to revive
the matter now and endeavOr TO have name
ready for it by the time it is completed, which
from present indications will not be long For
one we should suggest that it be called the Hotel
ClaytOn. name than which none stand higher
in the annals of the State, or is more revered by
the hearts Of our people. 1t il a National name,

loyal little city.
The idea of placing the name second is novel
one to ns. but has been adopted in Boston and
other cities for several years. II certainly IL a
very pleasant change from the old way and IN thls
case is particularly euphonious At least let "
think OF tile matter, and try to give our grand
