in st, Paul last week. They informed
us that it was not possible to build \

that account, and that If they ran east Of
Dexter to get away from the rough. un.

rough and impracticable, Nothing could
be further from the actual facts as to

gently soothed the wounded feelings of
the auditors, and the gentleman from
