The persons who would be most

real estate along is projected route, and
VIC have been assured on behalf Of most
of those gentlemen that they have no
objection to, but on the contrary favor
the enterprise, provided the street does
not cut too near to the middle OF their
homesteads, which there is not the
slightest necessity for it to do.
Capt. James f. Izlar, good man and

incumbents of that Office since 1868

The Scnatorship is the most important

County, the Senator controlling, as is

county appointments made by the Exc

We learn that the Governor will
shortly order an election, and that a

upon nominee. We sincerely hope that
tho action OF this body will result in
good for the people at large, which is,
