Clay Center Spring Election Promises
to Be Very Exciting.

Clay Center March S-Early last
Tuesday handbills were issued calling
upon the people to meet in mass con-
vention at the court house on Wednes-
day evening for the purpose of NOM
mating city officers. The vets and the
drys caucused separately and each en-
deavored to pack the convention with
supporters of it's ticket; the result was
that long before the time had arrived
for calling the meeting to order the
court house was full to overlooking and
many citizens were unable to gain ad-
mission. The meeting was therefore
adjourned to meet in a more commod-
iouS place next Monday evening.

Clarke and Willis are at Princeton,
Nichols is at Yale, Tenny at Dartmouth,

the reasons that Boston VIII start in so
