Our freemans meeting passed off lively
here, it being one of the most spirited cleo
tions we have la | for some time. A larger
vote was poled than usual. The republi'
cans elected representative by only 2S
majority. The representative was elected
on the third ballot, which stood rs follows,
viz republican 1873 democratic 03; scat
,etipg IL, o. q. IIadwin, was the caDdi-
date of the democrats for representative.
The state vote stood 100 republican and "a
democratic. Split tickets did not peddle
worth cent here, ald only two OF them
we're polled Dorr received ll2 votes for
Judge, while Weeks received only 40.
Our Justice ticket remains about the same
with only one or two changes although
plenty of candidates were in the field. AL
though considerably noisy, during the bal
lotlng, the bes. of feeling prevailed, among
the voters. The test vote of the parties
was IN the ballot for representative, show
ing the strength of the Tilden men to have
been 49, The line between the parties was
drawn very closely, so close in TACT that
brothers were divided, showing politics hold
men together in a stronger tie than anything
else. The Tilden men did not expect to
carry the election, but feel highly encour-
aged over the result, and hope to show a
still greater strength in November.
The last rally of the campaign here, was
held in the church at the corners, on Mon
day evening. Some 800 people were pres-
cnt, and were addressed by Hon. j. Stanly
Brown, of Albany, N. Y. 1t was by far
the best speech of the campaign. His re.
marks were frequently interrupted By ap-
pause, and the statistical part Of his address
was highly interesting and could not be
eainsayed. Mr.. Brown is an eloquent
speaker, his remarks being well received
by all classes here.
The weather is now quite cool, and
thore has been slight frost for two nights
here. J. G. W.
