Local Notes on Temperance, Education, and Hazelwood
The Dixon Sun covers Republican critiques from Rochester and Syracuse about liquor interests, calls attention to educational topics in The Century, corrects sewer pipe installations on Galena Street, and reports Hazelwood sale to Geo H Page. It also notes jail escape attempts, church appointments in the Rock River conference, and Woman’s Christian Temperance Union activities.
