In all probability tho line, once

STORM
HUSBAND FOR DIVORCE
OF
PROTEST IS LOST
Some where In n dusty pigeon
hole of tho Jacksonville city archives
reposes the propsed ordinance fixing
n license f ISO a month on auto stage
lines operating out of the county
seat. None of tho officials of the
city bcem to know what has become
of It and peace again reigns in tho
pioneer town.
Tho proposed ordinance recently
raised a storm of protest in tho coun
ty seat, leading to tho resignation of
n mayor, and Indignation meetings.
Suddenly the storm died nwny and
new no ono seems to know Just what
happened to the document. In all
probability It has already started
with Its accumulation of tho ttust of
centuries.
