holding their tariff aud other views in

The permanent officers of the club
elected, were: E. R. Lake, president;
Emory Allen, vice-president; J. Fred
Yates, secret airy; Willard S. Linville,
the election of officers, there being good
natured rivalry for president. Mr.. Lake
and George Waggoner were both placed
in nomination, the first ballot resulted in

vote more than Mr.. Waggoner. The lat

Hon. J. B. Irvine was called for and
was introduced as the "father of the
Times" He gave rousing and sensible
extemporaneous address and aroused the
enthusiasm of his hearers. The club
then adjourned to meet the first Friday

1t is the intention of the club to carry
on brisk campaign, and by literature

Mr.. Lake, the president of the club, was
elected last June as joint-representative
Of Benton and Lincoln counties by a
handsome majority over fusion candi-
date. He is popular and very active,
worker. He is practical far-

will see that the Mckinley end of the

purpose of the organization is TO per-
petuate scientific" boxing exhibitions,
and that candidates for public office
who are not opposed to such exhibit
tions will have the support and appro-

exaggeration-
One statement is that thirteen shocks
were felt in the neighborhood OF Ishi-

has been a lamentable loss Of life and

have been inundated and destroyed.
