In many things we may bevesned wbo Is Ibsre perfeot but lo tbe msla we are bold enough lo tblok the olllssns will bear us out In saying we have. Mailed at least a part of our agreement Aad withal, we reel like bragging a little The question Is frequently asked us "How do y jU publish a dally psper In Petroleum Centre, wby, Ibe plaoe Is plsyed out!" Tbe only answer ever made was that tbe citizens of our town appreciated the value of a local newspaper, and extend It a liberal support, and always have done so, In return for wbloh tbe Ricoap does Its "level best" to sustain tbelr tnts rests. . With regard to tbe town playing oak To be sure limes ere dull, but that Is tba prevailing complaint everywhere. Many have followed tba ex citement and moved away thinking to bet ter themselves, but Instead or lusreasing tbelr store of filthy lucre, are mournlog over tbe loss of tbelr greenbacks made legltlv metely In Petroleum Centre and they sigh In vatu over many a dry bole and tbe shad' owy vignettes of Salmon P. 0 are oontlou ally floating before tbelr eyes. But levity aside, we have not lost faith lo tba old town and still think Ibe prospect good for a long lease of life. Let our olllxeM not imagine tbe town dead, nor outsiders think lor a moment tbe grass Is growing green In our streets. Buob is not lbs case. We shall, like Jesburbap ol old, wax fat and strong when some etbsr towns we wot or will aa swsr a description of Goldsmith's Deserted Village. .

Many rumors are flying around, calculated to Injure aue or aiher of these two companies.
