OUR TOWN PROGRESSING.
d
Even City MarshaI's Efforts Show a
Balance on the Right
Side.

On top of the fact that the town
treasury showed a net gain of more
than a thousand dollars for the past
fiscal year, prosperity seems to be
only beginning,
Take for instance the case of the
City Marshall, J. L. Barnett He gets
$50 per month as such, and yet dur
ing one day this week the town real
lied $50 from four crap shooters. whom
he brought before the bar Two others
were nabbed yesterday and when they
liQuidate, his efforts for one week, or
less, will have paid his salary and
left a balance of $50 in the treasury. a..
OF course Mayor Armstrong is a
much better fnancier but he was away
and did not get to use his little multi
plication table-but look out crap
shooters.
