If you are desirols of a right
good bicycle, give Lewis Mahaffey
of Laporte, a call. He has accepted
the agency of wheels of Edward l.
Rose & Co. of Binghamton, n. \.

the very best wheel in the market.
The damage done to the school
rooms at this place by fire last week.
has been temporarily repaired and

room. known as the court room, will

lane. president of the school board

james Moran and son Will, of
Muncy Valley, spent several hours
with friends in Laporte, on Sunday.

A large percentage of the school
teachers in this district failed to put
in an appearance at the local insti-
tute, held at Laporte on Friday and
Saturday last. The absentees ought
not to take their pupils to do when
they come late to school. 1t is bet
ter late than never.
We placed the names Of st least a
dozen new subscribers on our book
last week. We have not counted
them, but are pretty sure we do not
exagerate the number when we say a
dozen. They came unsolicited. The
circulation of the REPUBLICAN is
advancing right along.
We will wager our last years
straw hat, that the man who puts
up the money to establish new
Democratic newspaper in Sullivan
county, will play out before the man
who writes the editorials. 1t costs
anywhere from $50 to S75 month
to run a newspaper, even in Sullivan
county.
A number of our people are agi-
tating the organization of fire
company in town. We would favor
water works. A reservoir erected
on Mokoma Heights, with pipes,
would furnish tho entire town with
water, and would be of sutllcieat fall
20 force a stream on the roof of any
building in town.
The county commissioners have
resolved 20 meet IN their office at
Iaporte, on the second Monday of

next, when they will transact such
business as may be brought before
them pertaining 90 their office. This
step II the commissioners will be
appreciated bY the business men of
the county,
