them all the information they desire in

assembled at Clark & Piummcr's Hall
for the purpose of organiz ng a Lodge
of the Sons of Temperance. Nothing
was done further than discussing the
propriety of having such an organization
in our place, and other matters of iuterest
pertaining to the same. This Lodge, as
we understand it, is not to coflict with
the Order of Good Templars in any
respect, but simply to have an organiza
tion of this kiul in this place to still
further the cause of Temperance. Its
terms are liberal, and its workings of the
most systematic kind. An officer will be
here in a few weeks to organize, perma
nently, the Lodge. We wish our citi
