Mr.. Charles Wallin, one of the mem
bers Of the august body of councilmen
of the city of Podunk. is in town today
and made a friendly call at The Repub-
lean office together with Corlett Dow
'ney. POdunk's city attorney and ex-
offiolo superintendent of snowbanks.
Mr.. Wal.in states that his highness.M Mr.
Jedediah Holcomb, the mayor of Po-
dunk, known to his intimate friends as
Jed" is presiding at all meetings of
the city council with his usual dignity
and elaboration. John Munson, the
city marshal, has had very little official
work to do and feels that he is earning
his salary owing to the departure for
the K!ondike of "Dick" Reamy, with
whom he used to struggle in many a
rough and tumble wrestling match in a
snow bank. Pete Kennesaw. the
mayor-elect of Podunk, failed to quail
fly and his whereabouts since election
has caused his friends some anxiety.
The election at Podunk was out Of
the usual order this fall, Mr.. Wallin
informs us. owing to the fact that they
received the Seven-Mile ballots and
had to vote for residents of that pre-
cinct for the offices of justice of the
peace and constable, and having nc
ballot box used a whisky jug for a re,
p~ository for their ballots. The jug was
empty and made an excellent substi.
