they are in the majority, too, are down
on saloons and liquor in any shape.
They got up temperance meeting and
purposed to drive the liquor men out Of

liquor people got together and in some
way got the confidence Of the town en-

on their side. The engineer discovered
that the town was not laid out right,
and he got authority to change the
metes and bounds. When he finished
the job, the temperance people found
out that they lived Just outside of the
line of the town, no matter what part
Of the town their houses were in. A
man could stand in his back yard and
