He seems to have grasped his work ' with the same - vice grip " which lias char acterized "his" career since he was at a law ; University . As . one looks into-' his . flashing brown eyes and determined features, an impression is unconsciously made by this Burlington lawyer, who is going to do good before he gets through with his. work. h The ..grocers association lis a good:, thing,' aud it should have the support 5and 5 endorsement of every; merchant .' interested. The pity of it iai that it .does not ex tend its arms and take ".in every other retailer. .

Mr. Johnson. Outlining the work of the past, detailing' the work of the present, and urging unity in the work for the future he planted an enthusiasm which has hardly existed so strongly in the past.. ' In his remarks tlje young law yer referred to the law in particu lar. He related the injustice which the state imposes on her grocers The Uws relative to the collection of debts, garnishments and home stea'd exemption and deeding of property to the wift, as a subter fuge from payment for honest debts, was plainly and explicitly denounce.
