The attention of every citizen of
Perry is invited to the "Council Meet-
ing/' a purely local item found in this
issue. Til K Ti m r.s has seen fit to re -
port the meeting of the ritv council
List night in full. Its careful perusal
will interest . wry one here.
If, what Till. Times has pre yp
1 viotisly said editorially has seemed
- ' severe, if it has had an expression of
' jaundiced prejudice, one has but to
j read the account of last night's coun-
cil meeting to have an altered opin
ion.
£; Might here let Tin: Times state that
'" it knows knows, not surniises, far
' j more than it publishes. Reasons for
this are more than one, and policy is
the ingredient of all. When the right
time comes as it surely will when
the interests of the peoplo of Perry
can best, ill our judgment be served,
all will lie told, and that too, to tjie
everlasting disgrace of democracy
at least, locally.
Have you read the local matter in
this issue, spoken of? If not, do so; , _ ^

asking itself what we shall do in the
interim, for it knows that a continua-
tion of the present regime's practices
can have bill one result, and that is a
