We have been unable to learn the full particulars, but The Reporter joins with host of in extending congratulations and well wishes for their future happiness and success iu life. CLELLAND DENNIS. Mr. Elzy Clelland and Miss Geneva Dennis wore united iu marriage at the home of the bride's parents in this city at high noon 20. The ceremony was performed in a brief an impressive manner by Rev.

D. N. Rose in the presence of the neac relatives and a few intimate ft ienu- After the ceremony the guests dm justice to a bountiful wedding inner. Mr. and Mrs.

Clelland wen' recipients of numerous handsome useful presents. The groom is tl son of Mrs. 'Mary Clellun v.o-l ii one of Kelly's representative men. The bride is tho I daughter of our fellow to ii VI n. Dennis and is a most estimbi lady.

The Reporter wishes ih a happy and prosperous voyage over the troubled sea of life. If the editor of the Corning Gazette will look up the records he will Gnd that city marshal Spangler of Onaga was sent up for killing a man named Gonske, and that Ed Savago was shot and killed by citv marshal Brown while raising a disturbance at a dance. We don't like to keep "butting in" forever, but this query has presented itself to our mind. If 13ro. Constant of the Sabetha Herald, considers it such an awful sin for a Republican to scratch his ticket, why didn't he line up his men and prevent them from becoming sueh a disorganizing force at the late election? Oyer at our neighboring town of Corning, a scrap is on between Road boss Greening and oue of his constituents and both parties to the fight have broken into print.

In last week's issue of the Gazette, the worthy official deals his opponent the following solar plexus blow. "As to his road tax, that isnot true. He has transmogrified the whole statement." Gee! We didnt know it was quite as bad as that. Bro. Sloe um and Mr.

Greening must have been closeted half the night with Webster's Unabridged in order to find a word that was appropriate to describe such an enormous crime. John must think that he has his opponent knocked out for at the close of the article he extends his hand, saving: "Inconsistency thou art not a iewel." Parties have been in the field in different precincts soliciting funds to defray contest expenses on sheriff for Mr. Dennis. That's all right: but wo insist that those Republicans who voted for bun sep to the front with a liberal contribution. Goffs was given a chance Saturday.

If they contributed as tbey voted, the solicitors need go no farther. Seneca Tribune. Yes, that's right, sling it into Harrison township, whrn you get a chance, for it might possibly divert the public gaze from the city Seneca which has a normal R-public i tjority of about 175, vet at the iMr-ction gave Democratic majorities raiding from 13 to 173 Harrison town hip van't the only pebble on ihe this year, Bi o.
