Dasperate elf crts have boen made to conceal this fact, but an Mic timo draws near, for centering on ninian for the nomination they are no longer nblo to cover up tholr excite ment and chagrin. The nomination tfof Roosevelt would, lt eepms to us. provo a most humiliating experience for tho republicans as woll as a d's-' a&trous ono, tor we do not believe he would stand a ghost ot' a chanco of being elected. . . ?..- j WE AUK KIMMYIMJ Tho city's street forcos h?vo 'n/ve c. om pl I sh ed a most thorough lob on East Benson street in effacing won derful and beaut'.fut works ot Nature that . required scores ot years to per fect.
