In his complaint Goodrich alleges that

for absent owners without any proxies
having been presented or accepted, and
that certain persons were allowed to cast
more ballots than they were entitled to-.

Church Last Evening.
At st. Paul's Episcopal Church last
evening Rev. \. George, rector in charge,
delivered forcible and appreciative SER
mon on "Wheels Within Wheels" to a
large congregation. The officiating min
lister gave graphic illustration of the
sovereign power of God and the will OF
man. "All the company of angels" said
he, cannot save the soul. God alone ca n
save mans soul, and will do so if man
has the will to be saved"
The sermon was OF a very interesting
character, and Mr.. George demonstrated
that the will of God was the will of man,
and that each and every person should
corporate with God in endeavoring to
elevate mankind. and worship God as He
should be .worshiped.
