county OF the dispensary. Do you
know anything of it: If so, let me

We will have to give them a bold
fight, if we have to call on the state
board to help us, and the principal
business houses, whose goods we han
die l think will help us in the fight
il it comes up. If we do beat them
(should they bring it TO vote) we
will have it settled for all time to
come. Let me know what you can
learn on the sly. I think they are try
ing to get another Cherokee case.
