It is listed as project No. 3 _ in The Citizen’s program of improvements. The ancient Roman government saw to it that the price of wine should be so small as to allow the poorest to indulge in it. This government on account of the de- thand for revenue is making the price so High that only the well-to-do may indulge legally or all obtain it illegally at the hoot: legger’s. “Do net compromise wes,” is: the’ sorehwerdl ‘Henry. b.

Approval of Governor Rolph,’ of Cal- ifornia, of the lynching of the Hart kidnap- ers, has sounded the tocsin for a serious outbreak of mob lawlessness throughout the United States. The governor shows no signs of contrition and has reiterated that he would pardon anyone found guilty of participating in the California lynching. ‘cess ‘knits the great fabric known as-Aniers THE BRIDGE LOAN Key Westers should have a_ cheerful Christmas with the prospects better than ever before of obtaining a Joan to build the des ture it should be borne in mind that there ——- is nothing “sure” or “positive” about it, but one can be reasonably sure and that | is the feeling The Citizen entertains, based on information that is reliable. In other words, there is no hearsay or rumor connected with that information. It comes from one who has been given the as- surance from men who are in a position to | give it authoritatively. Keeping in the background the fact’ that the wish is father to the thought, The Citizen sincerely believes that Key Westers:| are justified in maintaining a cheerful at- | titude over the prospect of obtaining a loan to build the bridges.
