light for the masses in the fact that the
people should rule. In naming the lead
ers of reform measures he omits the name

It is intimated that the defense win
enter the plea of insanity in the Neal case
and thus try to save their client from re-
ceiving his just dues for his crime of for
gerry and thus causing untold loss and
suffering to innocent depositors. He is
simply a victim of the present system, who
went into the scheme with his eyes open

promoters and benefciaries side-steped
the proposition and left Neal holding
the empty sack. Great is the System.

from him to O. A. Petit of this city. He
received severe wound on the head
from the kick of shod horse, the toe
cork striking him just over the eye. For
tunately the eyes!ght was not injured but
it made a very painful wound.
