To Sell Della Estate Estate.

We see in the Legislative proceedings tha'
there is a movement looking to the sale OF
large part of the lands belonging to the Della
Howe School, and that a Recommendation &c
that effect was made by the grand jury. As
far as our Information goes the grand jury
has about much right to NEEDLE with Els
kline as to bother the Della Howe School.

that land Is as safe as it's investments In Sc

lature may not assume to give permission toi

to allow the relatives or executors or admin

persons engaged in the killing or aiding and

The proposed law is one Of great import

self-defence" than anything else. By all
means let Mr.. Brice's bill become law. II
can hurt no good disposed citizen. and may

might otherwise lose it.
