Republicans of our county to summon

up the debris from the table and re-
pairs with the same to the pond,

The Board of Health found it
necessary, however, short while
ago to "stir up the cesspools," and
the town cried, why didn't you do
it before?" We believe that the
question of dealing with the social
evil should not be left to few vir
tuous parsons who, we feel assured,
have no practical experience in the
matter, nor by few wealthy mer-
chants OF the stamp of those who
raise their eyes to heaven and, for
getting their own escapades of days
gone by, say "Thank, 0 Lord, we
