date for Railroad Commissioner, was
a Wagner visitor Thursday. Mr.. Cam
pbell has many friends IN this part of
the state, who are confident that if
ell ected to the Office. the best interests
of the people will be the impulse that

A re port has reached this Office to
the effect that a change in the lumber
business is soon to 60 into effect in the
different towns in this section of the
state, where the QueaI, Fullerton and
Floete yards are located. At Armour,

lerton yard that will retire here.
These changes are nc doubt brought

than can three. We trust the patrons
Of the yards will receive a share of the
savings brought about by this move.
