Republican party and a Republican
President, it is apparent that he means
to leave Congress under cover of an

bought the land next Monroe St. from

Simply by talking, a Franklin man
whom we kuow would not cheat the
county or anybody else, may h.ive an
indictment brought against him by the
Grand Jury. Some time ago the gentle
man in question bid on a little bridge
job out in the country. Shortly after
ward he was approached by a repre
sentative of n bridge company, who
offerred him $25 to know the amount of
his bid. This the latter refused to ac
cept and declared he would not change
his bid. The price was raised to #SO
which was as much as the citizen
thought he would make by doing the
work. He then decided he would tell
the amount of the bid for that sum,
which he received and he gave the fig
ures to the representative. He how
ever, handed in his bid without change,
but did not get the contract for the
work. Thoughtlessly the fellow told
several people bow he made SSO on
Bridge work without doing a tap. As
a result, he was compelled to tell his
story to the Grand Jury.—Franklin

Dantilo, who conducts a boarding house,
where whiskey and bter were plenty
A dispute arose about some money,
which Talolovitz, who is called ' Big
Saui*, had lost It is not clear whether
he blamed the Dantiloa for takiug it
when he had been at the house on a
