A proposition has been made to
the Wilson and Marshall Club OF
Rockbridge by well-known gentle
man that for every dollar raised by
the committee before next Saturday
be will give four dollars. There
fore, one dollar means five dollars.
Should the club raise $3.50. the gen

additional, and the tidy sum OF

treasurer of the National Democrat

tributions. The managers of the
