When we learned of the destruction of
personal property and effects of the
printing office at Metamora last week
we thought that such crimes had gone

being nearly blown to pieces by dyna-
mite, which happened to the house of
Mr.. Dawson, a respected farmer near
Millington, no punishment is too
severe for the cowardly outlaws who

danger. The family had retired, with
no thought of an enemy, when with a
shock and boom the front part of the
house was blown Off and the rest some
what shattered. The vandals got out
of the way and have not been caught.
