Hendricks by the Democrats at Chicago
seems to be popular with all parties here
in Cheboygan. Democrats profess to be
delighted and the Republicans are jubi-

Tho need Of the hour is to accommodate
the 300 children thrown cut of school
house by Thursday nights fire. Let
every church, or public enterprise, or

public enterprises should be supported
by all. Do good to all, treat all alike.

honor of Cheboygan and the interests
of the amusement loving public demand
that they should be excluded from the
Hall.
The Methodist have knack of attach

challenges the admiration Of all. The
concert given on Saturday evening. and
on Wednesday evening, by the Ladies
Band and Concert Company gave uni.
versal satisfaction, and evoked the
verdict from most who attended 1.-The
best thing ever given In ChsbOygan.'
