Schultz, Lew. Deglow and Maggie Shay, sis
ter of the bride. John Bruestte and that
sweet little Anna Miller, Chas. Hais and
Miss Schultz Chas Bucher and Annie Rey
nOlds. After the ceremony was performed

iourned to Arbeiter Hall, where a brilliant
reception was held, and the bridal party

We have been called upon a number of
times to say good word for Frank Lowe
about his official conduct, which is impOsSi-
BILE for us to do, for we never have heard of
anything that he has done while he has
been in Office except hanging a negro, and
the law compelled him to do that, which we
give him the necessary credit due on that
memorable occasion; but we are not posi-
lively in favor of a Sheriff that can never
N f1I3I in his Ofiipp and who relics his
deputies to do his work. During the whole
course of Mr.. Percival's official career not
even one complaint reached us about him.
Andfor this reason are we i'll favor of rein
stating him. There are a few political sore
heads in this town who have tried to ferret
out something against Mr.. Percival, but all
their attempts have proved fruitless. Thirty
six of the delegates that nominated Frank
# Lowe will vote for Perciva, and it will be
no surprise to us if Mr.. Percival is elected
by two thousand majority.
