tisers and at the same time give the
readers of The Republican the usual
amount of reading matter, we have

/ On account Of the condition Of the
weather during the past two or three
days cleanup week has been post

Thursday will be carried out next
Wednesday and Thursday. The com
mittee having the matter in hand will
scatter dodgers at the beginning of
next week, thus giving property own
ers and householders due notice. If
the program outlined should be car
ried out, and there is no good reason
why it should not be, Oakland will be
a well-nigh spotless town this time
next week.
