men. That ample justice will be done
to the repast, goes without saying. A
most excellent menu has been devised
and the young ladies of st. Marguret's 8
guild will have charge of the cuisene
and the tables.
After the edibles have been disposed
of speeches will be in order and q good
array of speakers have been assigned

Indeed the mental food to be provided

pom inquiring at local offices it is
-ned that the attack which is being
lie by inland cities such as Fond du-
Neenah and Appleton, is wholly
warranted.
While it is true that Manitowoc coal
hpanies have refused to supply out
orders, the refusal is justified by
fact that there is but 5000 tons of
on the docks here and this will be
efficient to meet the requirements OF
local market. The Reiss Coal Co.,
$500 tons of hard coal and the Land
Salt Co., 400 and both have denied
appeals from other cities, even
ugh the p ice offered was in advance
that for which coal is selling here.
cers of the two companies state that
supply here is not sufficient for local
Ids and the same conditions prevail
Sheboygan The treatment which
companies have given patrons is
nmendable, the price being maintain
at S. per ton, even though $40 and
has been offered from abroad. This
uld be sufficient reply to nnwarrant-
attack for the papers OF the cites
