The good people to the number
of about 200 had gay and festive
festival at Beech Grove, above
Graham Station, Saturday night,
the receipts going to the Sunday
School. The Graham band was
there and enlivened the occasion
with choice music. This is one of
the best bands along tho Ohio.
The boys are appreciated, compli-
mented and applauded wherever
they go. Our county fair ought to
employ them this year by all
means. Let them have it. John
Dover, candidate for Sheriff, be-
longs to the band

BILE, don't know it is serious vio-
,lation of the law to do so in public
places, they will find it out by the
next timo the grand jury meets. 1t

be allowed, and it won't be either
by our courts.

friends along the shore. Men,
women and children entrusted to
his care aboard his handsome,
pleasant boat, are all right and
cared for.

j. b. Menager, of Point Pleasant,
after several years struggle for
nomination for various offices on
the Republican ticket, and as per-
sistent knitting of the ticket after
his defeat, has at last had the mask
torn off and he is now stumping the
State for the Democrats.-Po Pomer-
oy Leader.
No doubt the above article was
prompted by some of Mr.. Men
ager's enemies in this place, MIR.
Menager is not "stumping the
State for the Democrats" nor is he
making Democratic speeches. Mr..
Menager is free silver Republi-
can, and is making few silver
speeches as silver Republican
not as Democrat. The trouble
with the goldbug Republican is,
that they do not allow any member
of their party to have an opinion
contrary to theirs upon the finNn-
cial question. Mr.. Menager, how
ever, is able to take care of him
self.
Nature has nicely provided that
when certain conditions are pres

but the cigarette fiend is followed
by the "match iend." Watch him,
as, after securing his cigarette from
some one else more fortunate than
himself, he winds his way down
the street, calling to the business
man at his business as we'll as to
the leisure man at his ease, "Mr.
Wiggins give me match, please" /"
or "Tom gimme match" Let us
treat fends of all degrees and
classes kindly, for they, not know
ing what they do, may turn again
and rend us with "gimme n light"
