More Mckinley Prosperity

Recently Mr.. NJ. C. Gibson, of near
Tunnelton, brought 10 this office a bunch Of
apple blossoms and lilac in full bloom.
There were young apples, buds and full
bloom, gathered from an orchard Of about
$50 trees, all in full bloom on the north.
west side Of the trees, while the other side
of the trees contain apples, ripe and falling
of and ready for the picking. The orchard
is a fine one and presents a most remarkable
sight At this season Of the year.
Mr.. Gibson explains the novel phenomena
in this way. Abou, a month ago his section
was visited by very severe hail storm that
came from the northwest and DESTROYED
almost all kinds Of vegetation that il could
destroy The hail cut the leaves and young
apples all of clean ON that side Of the trees.

trees began to bud again and soon came ou,
in leaf and in full bloom again. and he now
has two crops Of apples on the same tree.

enough for them to mature. OF course the
Republicans will claim that this Is another
evidence Of McKialey prosperity. but as
Mr.. Gibson is good Democrat he is not

The hail storm served his lilac bushes in
the yard around the house, in the same way
and now they are out again in bloom. This
