The drinking water supply at the

Of Capt Henry Baker, Of the Salina
Water Co. He did his work well, a nd
this is the testimony Of every one.

Some fellow Who had been reading
Dante thought he had discovered q
similar picture 10 one Of the poets
descriptions during the fireworks
display.
The Park was 90 much admired that
favorable mention was made by many
visitors during the day with reference
to State fairs and soldiers reunions
being held here.
The promised flag for the biggest
township attendance upon the Re

The Almighty Wss surely on the
side Of the Republicans on Wednes-
day. The skies frOwned angrlly At

Of the day the weather was In It's best
mood.
Mr.. A. @. Smith, our station agent,
did some good work for the cause In
securing the privilege Of stopping the

Some Of the Click men looked
hopefully" and cheerfully towards
the thrsatnlng skies in the morning,

Of the soul. White lips and blanched
cheeks indicate grief, terror, &c.
The tOreh-llght procession as 1t
moved along on Santa Fs made one Of
the most beautiful sights we ever
witnessed. The fireworks display |
was seen several miles In the country
by various individuals, who pro
nOunced lt very beautiful even at that
distance.
The reason the procession did not
pass under the Gag suspended from
the city building across the street, was
because &c was put up by Click men
In Clicks interest. That procession
was not = Click procession. There
were some awful mad Glickites that
night.
