4 Paper Mill.

We are credihly informed that certain
parties in this place will soon commence
the erection Of a paper mill here. All
the plans are not yet completed, but
probably will be ere long, when We will
be glad to give the particulars. This
will only be the commencement, we
hope: of series Of manuflcturn es-
Establishments that will find refuge in
our midst. The gentlemen who are at
the head Of this enterprise possess en-
ergy and capital, two very important
auxillarics that brings success.

HOOdIums.

So much has been said in the
papers lately about local hoodlum-
ism that if people are not tired of
the subject, they at least think that
some energetic measures should be
inaugurated to punish hoOdlums and
put an end to their annoying prac-
tees. We believe step in the right
direction has been taken by Captain
Hooper, who is one of the numerous
victims of malicious rOwdylsm. Boys
or men-probably the latter-per-
sist in removing from the wall OPP
posite his residence, the heavy stone
coping, and so frequently has this
been done that the captain authorizes
the HERALD to say he will give $50
for information that will lead to the
conviction of the guilty parties,
Here is an opportunity for some
enterprising detective or other per-
son to earn a little money easily
and at the same TO the public good
service. Almost nightly acts OF
vandalism are committed in the
city. Gates are carried off, pickets
broken, fences defaced, trees
hacked, foot bridges overturned
and SO on, by young and old row
dies, who think it smart to dc
wrong and avoid detection. Some
exposures through police court trials
and punishments would unqueStiOn-
ably have a salutary effect upon the
hoodlum element; hence it is hoped
that arrests of the guilty will soon
be made.
