Mr. Pollock made a hit in response to calls, by expressing himself with Roose velt on all the great questions ot the day • In the afternoon of Memorial Pay. Judge Aaron Wall of Loup Citv delivered an oration, which was one ot the very finest addresses ever heard in Ravenna. It was intensly patriotic, eloquent in the highest degree and was in every way an ideal address for such I an occasion and fully sustained the j speaker’s high reputation as an orator, i — Ravenma News. | Editor Rosewater got a lot of nasty ; advertising over the attempt of a male ; and female to blackmail him. even if the woman has 'fes^ed it was all * dirtr scheme to get some of his good money, and in justice the pair should get h number of years at, Warden ' Beemer's hoarding house, where they ; can have time to retleet on the tough proposition they ran up against Editor Rt>«ewater can now deeply sympathize with the late Henry Ward Beecher.
