At the adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the Lexington Cream ery Company, held last Saturday ev ening John Her, W. E. Leach, An drew Reaney, R. L. Benge and Wm. Padberg were elected directors tor the coming year. The directors meeting followed immediately and they organ ized by electing "John Her, President; R. L. Benge, Vice-president; W. E. Leach, Seretary and Treasurer. Com munications from butter makers were read and It was decided to employ an Ohio man as butter maker to be here and ready to start the : creamery by September 1st. It is , expected to have cows enough pledged by that time to start with and we predict that with in six months the numbor of cream ery patrons will double. In writing up the celebration at Heppner, Bro. Carter, of the lone Proclaimer, feeling the effects of the "red pop" he had imbibed, lets go the following: .

The facts are that . it was decided by the managment of the Heppner celebration to retain the best band for the second day's program, and the Lexington band secured the services of three players, cornet, slide trom bone and a snare drummer, belonging to Ford's Show Co., to assist them. The lone band tried to employ these players but failed to make connections and did get two players from Heppner to assist them. The .Lexington band is composed of men who have played together for a number of years and are able to take up a piece of music and play it at sight. The lone band is not in their class and is composed of per- ModeHt Claims Often Carry the Mont Conviction. When Maxim, the famous gun in ventor, placed his gun before a com mittee of judges, he stated its carrying power to be much below what he felt sure the gun whould accomplish. The result of the trial was therefore a great surprise, instead of disappointment. It is the same with the manufacturers of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. They do not pub licly boast of all this remedy will ac complish, but perfer to let the users make the statements. What they do claim, Is, that it will positively cure diarrhoea, dysentery, pains In the stom ach and bowels and has never been known to fail. For sale by W. P. McMillan. sons, mostly beginners, and were out classed. The members of the lone band treated the Lexington boys very gentlemanly, and we do not wish to be understood as saying anything to dis courage them as they have made good progress since they organized, and be lieve that by another season they will be able to put up as good a grade of music as any band in this part of the country. We do believe that the bus iness men or the members of the lone band approve of this slur cast by Bro. Carter, who is so narrow that he can see no good in Lexington and will re sort to anything In an effort to cast a blur on Lexington and her people. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION.
