be not less than thirty hoisting plants
in operation.
This will serve to show better than

was employed on a certain occasion
by a French statesman against M.

press in the time of the second en-

Noir, for no real reason whatever, a
challenge to fight duel.
Noir was densely ignorant man.
and nearly every word in the chal-
lenge was misspelled. The statesman
responded with the following letter:

Upon reliable authority 1t Is learned
that the Brownlow leaders here have

of Postmaster Jackson. 1t Is under

Hughes sent a telegram to Congress

w. w. Dyer, the stave manufactures,
for the vacancy. Col. Hughes stands
very close to the First District Con-

be able to dictate the appointment OF
the postmaster since that faction 10

When Col Hughes was suWmarily

until the Congress met and then the
