VIM. r. Edgar, Jr., says he was
badly frightened Tuesday evening
about half-past seven o'clock, by

We understand that the author
tiles are hot on the trail of some
parties who recently dynamited
fish in Stout's creek. That is one

If the vote on the COW question
is given unselishly and pro bono

Shall the COW be restrained from
running at large within the city
limits? The question will be
answered by the voters atthe COM
election-I hope, in the affirm
alive. But, be it "Yes" or "No,"
we will all know where we are at

The REGISTER wants the cream
cry to prove a success, and there
fore hopes the disagreements that
are rending it now may soon be
amicably and satisfactorily ad-
justed. We need it's products, for
which there ought to be ample
home market all the year round.
Fix things up, gentlemen, and
then pull together.
