meeting there that evening. and then
come to Phoebe the following day On
these occasions j. Poujade, Republican

taxpayer, and we may say having been
raised in Phoebe, is thoroughly acquainted
with the affairs of the county and is in
every way qualified and competent to
talk upon the subject The taxpayers
will find it to their best interests to listen
attentively to what Poujade has to say
in regard to local matters.

every moment switching from our case

we unintentioaally omitted the name Of
the Democratic candidate for District At
torney, Mr.. C H. Patchen, from the
Democratic column, and the very name,
above all Others, we would preferred not
emitting. We hope his name being alb.
sent one issue will not be the cause of i'm
pairing his political aspirations.
