CAMPAIGN CLUBS.

The most effective political engine in
operation, this year, is the Campaign
Club. All over the State, organizations
are springing up, almost spontaneously,
calling themselves, Davis Corporals, y
Corporal Guards, +" Republican Clubs, -
Campaign Clubs" &c. When one or
two men undertake to organize club or
start the project, they invariably express
surprise at the willingness they find
among the voters to enroll their names
upon the club pledge, and to assist in
the work. Hundreds of names are easily
secured in every town of any size, and
every man goes to work as though he
were engaged in his own private affairs.
This individual work, by members of
clubs, and the school district meetings TO
be held under their direction, will produce
more good, and make more converts than
can be made by any other instrumental
ity. We trust that club will be organ
in every town in this County,-and it
should be done Immediately.
When club is about to organize, good
speakers can be obtained for the occasion
by addressing H. NJ. Bearce, esq, chair
man of the Republican County Commit
tee at Norway.
At least three of these clubs have been
formed in this County, during the past
week. One

CORPORAL DAVIS.

The enthusiasm with which our candi-
date for Governor is received throughout
the state is illustrated by the following
extract from letter written by friend
in Bridgton People all over the state
are thinking politics, talking politics. and,
best of all, are talking and thinking good,
sound Republicanism.
IL went to hear Corporal Davis. last
night. He is n good one, and talks good
easy truth, and in plain common sense
way. The people are highly pleased with
him, and no candidate ever made better
start than he did ut Bridgton last night.
over thousand turned out To hear him,
and after the speaking, a torch-light pro-
cession all over the village, with two brass
bands, kept the ball rolling until the hopes
of opposing parties in this town were near

A WORD TO GREENRACKERS.

Nv Greenback friend, did it ever occur
to you that you are using similar or exactly
the same argument the radical Democrats
or Copperheads did during our late war;
Now let US see how they compare together.
We all remember the old cry, "You can't
put the rebellion down. 100000 people
never were conquered and never will be.
Now heard that, here in the town of Paris
in Sept. 1864. Well, what was the next
dodge? 1t was when the Democratic party
declared the war a failure. At that time,
Gen. Sherman was laundering away at At
lanta and Grant had Lee by the throat; and
in less than one year the South was as badly
a whipped people as ever was
Well, the next cry was, you can't pay
the bills" One man (now Greenbacker)
told me that our money was worthless.
asked him why SO? His answer was this
Because we cannot redeem il, and. - said
he, "what is a paper dollar good for II GOV

let us see how your talk sounds beside the
above
Ia .hc first place, You told u, all along
previous ami up to Jan. /, 1879, "Iou can't
redeem your paper money. Resumption is
failure" &c Well, the time came the
Government resumed specie payments
there was no crash; the good old Ship oi
state sailed on; she entered port with col
ors dying and not timber broken. although
YOU did your level best to wreck her
Wen. what was your next cry; IL was
this 'Iou are not redeeming yourmoncy.
That we hear every day. when the fact is.
we have redeemed every dollar that ha,
been presented for redemption and have
taken in more gold than We have paid out.
Sow | say YOU have honestly earned the
title of Copperhead and you must not iiud

We see today; Here in Paris, farmers are
unable to get help enough to cut their hay,

that resumption would destroy business.

AT NORW Az,


on Friday evening. Mr. Frecland Howe
called the meeting to order, and nomin-
atcd H. NJ Bcarcc, esq, Tor temporary
chairman.
On motion of Gen. Beal. DR. +. c.
Clark was elected temporary Secretary.
\ committee on permanent organization
and bylaws was appointed as follows:
Gen. c. l.. Bcal, Capt. w ". Whit
marsh, ). IL. Burnham, JOS Churchill,
w. W. Twombly.
About one hundred and twenty-five
names were on the club paper. and some
of these, also. were men who did not vote
with us, last year.
1t was voted that when the meeting
adjourn, it be until Saturday evening,
August ., when Hon. j p. Swasey will
address the club.
Hon. VIM. p. Frye of Lewiston, was
then called for, and his appearance was
the signal for applause and cheers.
Mr.. Frye spoke for about two hours,
with unusual force and cloqucnce. He
showed that Republican financial man
agement had been excellent, as was prov
cd by the recent refunding of the national
debt at four and four and half per cent.
Before the war the Government could not
hire money at less than twelve and half
per cent. He quoted from the [. 5.
Statutes to prove his statement. He
then turned his attention to the question
of States rights. lie reviewed the action
of the late Congress, and the utterances
of Southern men who have opened this
issue. He dwelt at length upon the ne
cessity of National supervision of elections,
and supported this point by citing the
frauds committed in New York city. Mr..
Frye was on the Congressional Committee
which Investigated the matter, and he
prepared a speech upon the question, which
was printed, in part in the OXFORD DEM
oCRAT of May 20, 1879, Vol. At, No. 10.
We will send the complete speech on APP
plication to this office, free of postage.
Mr.. Frye was particularly happy in
his choice of subject on this occasion,
and his hearty reception must have been
source of great qualification to him, as
an endorsement of his Congressional Ca
reer.
Norway Band was in attendance and
furnished excellent music for the occa-
sion. Thare will be a large attendance
at the meeting next Saturday. to hear
Mr.. Swasey.
