As the time la fust approaching when

works h hardship on a few and it is
often the case that some can not stand

The Cottage Grove pictures were an

"Land without population is a wild

a mob.
" W e can form but a trifling concep

the Panama canal open, great steamers
will land passengers at our coast ports

defense of the object of the land
