in attendance was: very ‘hotice-

him the gratitude of the people of
the district, through his untiring
efforts in giving them the best

ailments. The doctor stated his
position very. ‘positively and left
no doubt’ in the tiinds of his
audience, but that he would con-
tinue the same policy of upright-
ness and fairness to all in his
political _Bosition, as he had fol:
