He very politely silences the "'meeker'', of which species we .have too many. He is' ever ready' to give his Just proportion to 'every .public enterprise. ' If the band needs. cash • money, 'he is the first citizen .to 'dig down, and when there's a community frolic,' a pla' . `or 'another fund the). needs ' a'.00st, he is always depend- able for a, donation..
