Ii Japan doesn't like it We are Civ
ing her an excellent opportunity t.
say so.
MFR. Justice also neglected to state
why Colonel Andrews was not put on
the stand.
Both sides in Wilmington should
| ADMIT that it was q mistake ant lei
it go at that.
While there will not be a eompro
mise. the Governor admits that it il
not his fault.

| not explained how it is proposed to
keep it settl'd.
You will not know just how the
panic has affected you until the holi-
days are over.
Mr. Roosevelt may not want it,
but it seems to be costing him an ef-
fort to say so.
Raleigh is not particularly partial
to the dispensary, but she hates tn
lose the money.
Mr.. Tom Dewey should serve his
whole sentence and then think that
he got off light.
As the OTHER way around meant mn
extra session of the Legislator it is
perhaps best as it ia.
The best plan would perhaps be to
give the railroads and the morally
stunted no quarter.
Nobody seems to think it neces-
sary to explain why Colonel Andrews
was not put on the stand.
Come people may consider these
hard times, but here's hoping that
they may ever be as good.
If the Governor thinks the State
