TOO PERSONAL.

Agreeable to the suggestion made
in last weeks Chieftain relative to
calling for q popular vote on
Holly's chief male gossip, a num-
ber of spicy letters have been
received, but We regret to say that
ALL are of a personal nature, and
therefore unfit for publication.
The venting of spleen, in any form,
is distasteful to the editor of this
paper. therefore the offer of a $25
prize TO the person who would
name the biggest gossip in Holly
is off, as far as we are concerned.
