Republicans are getting. A few gentleman
of Davenport and LIE Claire meet together
to spend a social hour, and the whole
Thorington clique are thrown into 'convul-

We we're present at the gathering at
Levi Donaldson's. We paid for the refresh.

1t is an insult to the farmers Of Scott Coun-
ty, to charge that their votes can be bought
for glass Of whiskey. That seems. how

is buying the farmers and others with whis-
key, and the p eople will administer them .
rebuke next Octo Der, that will wipe them
out Of existance. Amen.
