1t will be seen from the synopsis, in
another column, OF Governor Mac
Corkle's reply to his critics, who are
numerous and by no means gentle,

distribution of it's possible benefits as
well as its burdens shall be aimed in
making the reductions.

Four days ago she began to fight with
the other servants. She made herself
generally disagreeable. She had room

Judge went down there and was met
by Mr. Mcleod. who did not wish to let

Mr.. Mcleod assured her that no in
quest was to beheld, but the girl was
positive that they were going to cut her

Policeman Rathln carried the girl into
