Lewis Post, No. 294, G. A. Il. held one
of their usual Interesting meetings at their
headquarters in Odd Fellows hall on Tues
day evening Of this week. There were
ten new recruits mustered in, and one
joined by transfer. 1t was a regular old
fashioned love-feast, and the boys enjoyed
themselves as they always do on like Occa-
sions. There were also several applicants
for membership, who could not be with us
on last evening. but will come in at the
next meeting. The late tongue lashing
which the G.. 4. Il. has received from de-
feated sore-heads has only given us free
advertising. and tends to show us as we
are. the staunch friend Of the old soldiers
and his wslOws and orphans, and is simply
cementing the boys the more closely to-
gether.
| believe the recruits in our ranks will be
far greater in 1889 than in any year since
the organization. Few, if any Posts in
Kansas. are in more thriving condition
to-day than Lewis Post of Dodge City.

in his usual good style.

The business of keeping the boys out
of hell, has much 20 recommend il but
that of keeping hell out of the boys
pays bigger profit on the investment.
Divine forgiveness is within the

1t is better to do right and need no

A reformed man, is never quite -
good as one whose life has been SO pure

The Tax-Payers Aroused.

The Taxpayers of our city met on
last Monday evening and organized Il
society called the Taxpayers League.
The society is for the protection Of the
tax payers, and their first move was to
sign petition and present it to our
city council on last evening, ask
ing that the police force be cut down
to two policemen, and the city attor-
ney's salary be reduced to S25 per
month; also that the work on the
streets, as far as teams were used, be
stopped. ID. NJ. Frost, E. kirkpatrick
and A. Gluck were the committee thai
waited on the council, and Mr.. Frost
presented the petition. Councilman
Arment stated that he was in favor OF
reducing the taxes, but believed that as
far as cutting down the police force
was concerned, that business belonged
to the mayor, who was the chief of ro-
lice. After Mr.. Arment had finished.
J. T. Frankey addressed the council.
He stated that for the city work as
city attorney. he was getting too much
pay, and would stand reasonable re
duction. This made several who hao
heard him only about six weeks agc
state that he would resign if his salary
was reduced, smile. Of course after
the council saw that Mr.. Frankey would
stand a reduction, they felt somewhat
relieved, and took up the matter of re
ducing the police force, but this was
set down on by the mayor in short or
der. when he stated that one policeman
on at night was not safe, and that ne
to have at least two police
men on at nights. Councilman Collar
.hen addressed the meeting, and in
starting out stated that all that was nee
,ssary for him to say in a very few
words was that ''no matter what
lie might say. the petition presented to
he council by the tax x-payers would not
'e granted. He (M. Collar moved
hat petition of taxpayers be granted,
nd the same was seconded by S. Gal
and. j. A. Arment moved an amend
aent that the petition be received and
eferred for further consideration. The
Vas carried. After this :
lstter had been disposed Of, Mr.. Ar
lent made . motion, which was carried
that all street work be stopped after 5
rat which was now under way was
,mpleted. This motion was carried.
They also cut off one policeman and
'duced the salary of the city attorney.
The council saw by the petition pre-
nted to them, signed by all of our
.avy taxpayers. that our people
cant business, and no doubt will pay v
me attention to the expenses of our <
ty in the future. +
