There has been ripple of rejoicing
over the prospect that Bro. Shinn has
come over on the Lords side during the
revival this week, but some party's
without the fear of the Lord in their
hearts, say that he is just working a
racket on the contribution box, the same
as he did the county printing.-DOdge

ill for some time that change of medi
cal treatment is recommended by her ply

Bro. Shinn, of GLOBE-REPUBLICAN
has been attending the revival meetings
of the Free Methodists and last Wednes-
day evening he was converted. We are
pleased to think at last some good NAV
come from Bro. Shinn, for lie has been
hard case in his time, and now that he
has got religion we hope for better re.
suits. We understand that he was the
hardest case that has yet come before
the meeting. The hardest part was to
keep him awake long enough for him to
realize the beauties of religion, it being
necessary to keep up a great deal of
noise. but success crowned the efforts of
the levivalists at last, when hope seemed
entirely gone. We congratulate Bro.
Shinn, and most heartily congratulate
the evangelists on their success. for it
was without doubt herculean task and |

nifty. for there is no doubt but that Bro.
Shinn was 'the vilest sinner of them all.

Bro. Pettyjohn complains that we
'sneaked around and enticed'' Lloyd
Evans not to contributed to his columns.
We plead guilty to the soft impeachment.
Young Evans has been for some weeks
'ngaged on the staff of this journal. and
ome of the choicest literary work in
hese columns is from his versatile pen
Ill. The contract made with him called
or the entire product of his intellect in
his line. Furthermore. We especially
tipulated that under no consideration
hould any of his writings appear in the
echo. In explaining the reason of this,
We must admit that the Echo was forging
head rapidly in the race for literary
upremacy. and CHANGING to learn that
lloyd Evans was contributor, we conclud.
d the best work on that paper came
rom his pen. Since he quit the Echo

yer, and also the graphic description of
he great journalistic fight for opera
ckets, and we are now forced to the
that Pettyjohn himself is the
laster mind, we do therefore hereby
rant to Lloyd Evans release from that
art of his contract which prohibited
inn from placing any of his work with |
val newspapers, and most particularly
a portion of his talent to the
ork of securing Pettyjohn's admis-
on to the opera house.
