The meeting at this place was a COM
nlete success. The attendance was large,
The people were orderly, the music fine,
and the speaking excellent. Shortly
after the ringing of the Court House bell
the throng wended their way thlther-
ward, hating only long enough to hear
the music discoursed by our brass band,
until the appearance of Colonel Wilson
and Dan johnson, OfTyler escorted by
Robert McEldowny and NJ. r. Grouse,
E,qs. As these gentlemen entered the
Court House, the vast throng closely fol-
sowed and in few minutes the seats
were filled.
The meeting was presided over by Robt.
McEldowney, Esq, who, after the, au-
dirncc had been entertained by a Brass
Band, introduced Col Wilson in very
brief speech. as our "ne1t Representa-
tive in Congress" The Col. then ad-
vunccd and stated his objec: in meeting
the people of Wetzel cOunty-that he
propo,rd to discuss the issues of the day
- but would be compelled to be brief, III
consequence of the condition ofh throat.
But for that fact, he would say something
of the last Congress, and the treatment
he received at the hands Of the Re
publican element there.
He said that he WAS the candidate OF
no ring clique or faction, but Of the
rhoLc Democratic party-and denounced
the Republican fabrication to the effect
that he WAS candidate of ring or
cl.ur. asa story of the whole cloth.
Iii, conduct was not such rs to take a
nomination in that way. If he was not

content. He asked them to look
