Lee Thacker came up from Union
last evening to attend to some busi
ness matters. He was a pleasant
caller this morning at this office and
extended his subscription to this
paper for another year and asked us
to change the address from Union to
Monte Vista, Colorado, about the first
of March, a: they had disposed of
their pretty residence property at
Union and are going to remove to
Monte Vista, where they will reside
in the future. Friends of the Thack
era sincerely regret the departure of
this most estimable family from their
midst, but wish them all the happi
ness possible in their new home.
Mistake Corrected.
In Tuesday's write-up or the coun
cil proceedings the writer mentioned a
petition from the citizens of the city
asking for the appointment of Fred
Patterson as city surveyor, and said
that the "petition numbered 48
names," or words to that effect. Mr.
Patterson says the petition contained
148 names and that our report had
"bobbed" off an even hundred, which
is more than half of the number.
The matter becomes material, as
there Is another petition asking for
the appointment for another party,
and the longest pole may get the
persimmon.
