A Wise Precaution

The Posts next-doOr neighbor, C.
w. Graves, received this week a fine,
large consignment of stOne-coal
which was dumped III the back yard
right next to the back door of the
print shop. We are awfully glad be-
cause it has been predicted that the
coming winter will be a severe one,
coal will be scarce, and it would be
sad indeed to see those so near us
suffering from the cold because of the
lack of forethought or timely pre-

the danger until it ia too late, and
the hypnotized majority have voted
for its adoption :
Then reconsideration becomes in
evitable
A third potent cause for recousid-
GRAFTON may be traced to poplar dis
approval of some action that has
been taken by the convention. And
when the law makers begin to

they may have been too hasty in
their conclusions.
And again reconsideration efs a ne

sources of strength in the organic
