Hon. Mark II. Dunuell spoke herr
on Friday evening last to full house
and judging from the amount of enthu
siasm manifested, this would be a poor
place for greenbackers to recruit in. Al
sun down a salute Of ten guns was fired
after which our cornet band played Ma
tional airs, the spirit of which told us tc
hold the tort at all hazards. After half
Or three.fourths of an hour Mr.. Dunnell
appeared, the band followed into the hall
Hon. z. F. Greening was chosen chair
man, after which Mr.. Dunnell presented
the views of the Republican party upol
, the money question in so clear, concise
and convincing manner that he brough
forth rounds of applause from all present
:, regardless of party, and the democrats al
agree that his views are sound, that tn
, only safe currency is that which is IT
deemable in gold and silver, and tina
there re millions Of currency ready fo
investment to-day, but they arc prevented
by this revolutionary and suicidal policy
of inf1ationists which threatens to unset
, tie values and force upon the country al
p irredeemable paper not worth the cost G
\ printing. Space forbids further mention
9 but unless there is great revolution i
y public sentiment, Mark 81. Dunnell wi
!. receive nine out of every ten votes polle
e in the village. After the speaking wa
J. over, the band again favored us with SCI
r eral pieces and as the echo of the la!
e. strains died away, each went his wa
k thinking he had heen profited by hearin
D the views of so able a statesman as Mar
a II. Dunnell. RADIUS.
