Council Grove Republican: The
Catholics of Council Grove held a meet
ing on the 18th of last month and have
concluded to build a church at this
place. The structure is to be 30x50.
The people are subscribing literally
and work will be commenced this fall.
There are large number of Catholics
in Morris county, and We have no doubt
but that the money can be easily raised
for this purpose. The Catholics never
build on the halfway principle, but
when they do anything they do it well.
We wish them success in their under
taking. We are authorized to state that
Mr.. B. dollhouse will receive sub
scriptions for the church, and all money
paid To him will be thankfully received.

Last week the city council, by a
vote OF three to two, made the NEWS
the official paper of the city. The re-
suit was so announced by the acting
president, and the council proceeding to
the transaction of other business, the
representative of this paper who was
present left the council chamber, rely
ing upon the good faith of the council,
which, after his departure, voted to re-
consider the matter, and for reasons
best known to the members who thus
stultified themselves, awarded the print
ing to another paper. Such proceed
ing, we think it will be admitted, will
scarcely commend itself to the public as
fair manner OF conducting business.
