MARTINS FERRY.

The meeting that was to have been
held by the citizens and firemen for the
purpose of raising purse by public
subscription for the purpose of back
ing the Independent hose team for an
other race with the Toronto team, was
abandoned after those at the head of
the project had conferred with the
members of the team. The idea is a
very sensible one, after it is carefully
considered, as no other team, although
they never bore the reputation as the
Independent boys, has ever came back
at them, when they were beaten, and
for them to do it on this occasion would
give the appearance of soreness over
the defeat. Of course the boys feel
little sore over the defeat, it being so
close, but their many admirers stand
ready to raise any amount of money
to back them should the Toronto team
feel disposed to challenge them for
race, as they have not the slightest
doubt but what they could double their
money on the local team.
There will be other races of a SIM
liar nature in days to come, and then
the Independents can demonstrate their
dpiiltleS anu VIII DdSh tHeil titie, anu
not cause the i'll feeling that they
might otherwise do.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
meeting was given up it must be UNI
derstod that it was not because the
members of the team did not want
another race with the Toronto boys,
but because it would be in keeping
with the fraternal feeling that should
exist between members of the asso-
citation.
