The resignation of Henry Dortch,
the only alderman holding over, was
tendered but not accepted by the old
board, as that would have broken the
quorum and the new board could not
be installed, so his resignation came
before the new board at its meeting

the election ordered to fill the .vacancy.
This requires a speciul election to bo

the annoyance and expense it will oc

time.
As we are setting this in type on

It is said that the speeches of Ward
and Gossom were especially brilliant,
Gossom driving his argument home
with telling effect; in fact, it is said
to have been one of the best efforts
ever heard in the Caruthersville court
room. Taking into consideration the
fact that Judge Gossom fought this
case single handed, and against some
of the best talent practicing at the Ca
ruthersville bar, it seems that the
Judge is not only making his
but is making good.
It will be remembered that Albert

a saloon at Caruthersville, Match 2,

A. Mayes did so with clean hands, and
whatever of censure and blame it may
have been his lot to bear for what
he may or may not htivi done, the Doc
tor has done so patiently, knowing
that he was making the best he could
of the opportunities as they presented
themselves.
Dr. Mayes was handicapped in many
ways, and only towards the closing
days of his administration, when
too late for the accomplisrnentof much
good, matters shoped themselves more
favorably, vacancies on the board be

and Moreau Gaskins, who were favor

CHURCH WORK.
To Headers of the Hearld:
I want to give you something that I
have accomplished for God since I
came to Hayti the first of last October.
1st. A meeting at Hayti with 22
additions to the church.
2nd. A meeting at Marvin Chapel
with 28 to join the church, and a meet
ing at Deering with 20 additions to the
chinch.
In all, 32 additions have been made
to the Huytichurch, making a total of
!50. The meeting at Deering has just
closed. He v. J. L. Woolverton of
Hayti helped us, and we found him a
man of God, and a good preacher.
He is good help to an one. I am for
IIa.ti, first last and all the time. I
love the people of my town. They
have heed kind to me and 1 am always
glad to see them at my church. Let
us all woik to build up the town.
