pubicans here increases. The Reporter
is red hot this week. Editorials and COM
munications from various points in this
county are profuse, and their bitter denun-
Citations against the Court House ring
are clothed in as sarcastic rhetoric as is
possible for angry "kickers" to use.i In
the Reporter Office hangs the picture Of q
kangaroo, the collar Of which is inscribed
with &c. H. Ring" In the back ground is
a representation Of the countys capital,
while with one more leap the kangaroo will
meet destruction. The members of the
kangaroo ticket are doing all in their
power to advance their interests and in
turn call the kickers "Mollie Maguires."

meet tomorrow evening.
