not understand the exact meaning OF

There is only one way In which
railroad warfare can be avoided, and
that is by the process of pooling,

an unpleasant one, but the idea which

is not dangerous one by any means.
In a strict sense, it only means an

Boston ministers have hoped into
ring and have adopted a resolution
expressing a conviction that out of
respect for the character of President
Harrison, the purchase and use of in
toxicating liquors be dispensed with at

President Harrison will be asked to
take it under consideration. There is
more than one draw back in being re-
publican president, it would seem.

there was no resolution of the above
kind, and yet everything passed of
magnifcently and everybody, includ
