Stand up for your own town. Men that pretend to be citizens that will getup and say that the young men of Preston are not citizens , are uncivilized and are cowards. must be pretty busy attending - tending to business that doesn't interest them in the least. Be- sides these men are not old enough citizens to know circumstances. Therefore let them inquire and learn a little before they go to shooting off. People that talk that way reminds us of a dough nut stuck en two knitting needles and know just about as much. This trouble has been brewing for about four years and the boys have let them have their own way to see if the so-ca11ed citizens and officers would make an effort to stop such disgraceful acts of outsiders. Now as far as the boys not being citizens is concerned - ed , on last Friday night , January 15 , they stood up like citizens of these United States and protected their rights against these out- laws. If the citizens cannot pro- tect their quiet little village from street fights ( which take place in doors ) and making night hideous by their profanity and vile epi- thets , the boys will proceed to dose so if they do have to carry the name of being bullies.
