crease the value of the paper to its pats
rons Ms far as lies in our power. Next
week we expect to be able to effect a
change In the dress and makeup of the
paper, which will he advantageous to
all concerned.

the champion of good government, the
rights Of the people; and the exposer of
fraud and dishonesty wherever found.
While maintaining loyalty to the prin-
cip!es of the Republican party as now
existing, We shall hold to the duty and
privilege 0fdenouncing wrong commit

Ie our patrons of the past and pres

press the hope that we may be able to

Sec. l02, Vol. !, Page 259, except three.
/ therefore cOrrespOnded with the Com

Binding same, one volume D w
One official certificate covering

Total cost, $43 90
The Field notes belonging I'm this Of

for you to approve Or not Of the con-
tract.
From the plats in the County Clerks
