Hebron refuse to have anything to
do with it.
When the states solons passed a law

gave 1t q try, but has found that old
sol refuses to be convinced. There
fore Hebron has gone back to the old
mountain time.
The problem was discussed at .

II was decided that all public affairs
would hereafter proceed according to
the "old time," as before the legisla-

lishments and churches likewise are
again using the old standard.
Railroads operating across the
