its good taste, just we did when it found OF
a musical and dramatic department was Oh
sirable thing after TIE HERALD had been col
Quoting one for over two years. We now ver
ture the prophecy that it Will only be a shol
time before the Tribune will discover that III
town is taking singular interest in real estat
transfers, and wheels into line with THE HET
AID in that direction. We have a few moi
ideas to work up yet, TO which the Tribune wi
be welcome, and by observing closely we cont
IDENTIFY hope that the sheet will emerge from il
condition as purely party organ into news
paper somewhere about the time that Gabriel
