to prepare to smudge. We are glad
to see our contemporaries take the
matter up and push as hard as they
can. 1t would apepar as if some of
these pretended weeklies would have
thought of the matter and urged it
forward. but they must necessarily
have a leader and the Sentinel has
always occupied that field for them.
