leaving 400 names, just twenty-nine I'm
excess Of the number required. This
morning the list was further purged Of
names Of parties who did not vote in the
last election. and large number OF good
citizens. who, upon their affidavit, de-
clared that they had signed upon a mis-
apprehension Of the matter.
Both sides were represented by coun-

ney, and A. G. Gordon. chairman OF the
Democratic party, represented the citi-
zens, and r. B. Kennedy and j. A. Alex
ander the Prohibitionists. large crowd
was present, and the Prohibitonists were
on the retreat during the entire contest.
Mr. Craig presented with great force
the fact that the law was being abused
by the Prohibitionists by keeping this CITY
IN a constant state Of turmoil and CON
fusion on this question, one twenty-hfth

"Sing My Mothers Picture =" suggested
Inspector Cough. and the boy sang with
tender emotion the appeal Of the child not
