Show I Thankii, Brotiier! Were we the least bit c :i i lint j that Editor tie: jamin Franklin Miller of the Green Riv. r Dispatch would accept ac-cept it we would gladly give him a vo-'.c of thanks for the reproduction he has ; muie of our e.drorial remarks in it-cent ; issues of the Progress. His paper e:i- j joys a very thor.ni jh circulation among ! i Green River paepie, we would suppose, ! and we can thank him for using the j i oi.lv. means a - ailable of acquaint ng Lis . readers wiiii the sentiments of the peo j pie of the CMiinty which we are endeavoring endeavor-ing to do.
