ing Probate Judge Meyer for his das-
tsrdly trick In betrsying the party, the
arty that has stood by him for num-
Der Of years, only for the sake Of gain
ing few thousand dollars, as was re-

II you cannot do much with money you
can show your appreciation BY encOur-

out. and II naturs gas should be found
it would no doubt be great step
towards giving our city big boom,
which would induce manufacturing
establishments to locate in our midst,
and thereby give employment to our
lab0ring men, as many of them have to
seek work elsewhere because our one
coal mine yet remaining cannot give
employment to all. Be sure and turn
out. Let everybody be In attendance.
