and they knew, because they

down. While the prices of hogs
and cattle has gone down there
is no danger of the price going
below the point of profit. The
packers say hogs will go to six

Rev. CuITisOn Elected

Rev. A. CuIlison, at one time
pastor of the Methodist church
of this city, has had a stroke of
| olitical fortune. He was elect
ed probate Judge of Elk county
at the recent election, and the
good part of it is that the Demo-
Gratis voted ALMOST solidly for
him, not having a candidate of
their own. When Mr.. Cullison
announced his candidacy the
Democrats got together and de-
