buried by private parties and not by
he city as has been reported. In this

least two parties have been circulating
a subscription list requesting con
tributions for this purpose which,
while of doubtless laudable Intent, is
nevertheless said to be on Impression
on the public as no funds are needed.

of going into the race at present and
the trip is purely one of private bust

tend his Journey to Ruby and take
a try at the purse in the Ruby
Long City race, which is quite as
celebrated in that section of the
Sweepstakes in here.
