for the new Anti Monopoly party. Gas

two years of his term unexpIred, has re-

Put up a Box.

Some of our'city subscribers, whose hous-
es are a little of the street, complain that
they lose papers occasionally. We do the
best We can to make our carriers faithful
and instruct them to put the paper inside
the houses. But, when they are late we
suppose they throw the paper over the
fence or on the porch or steps, and run
along-boys will do so sometimes. But,
If subscribers who lose papers that way
will put little box, with a lid to it, on the
inside of the fence, or in some handy
place for the carrier, we will see that the
boys place the paper in the box. 1t viii

is because they are prepared from the

the favoring principles are retained un
