A TALK WITH SENATOR BUTLER.

A TALK WITH SEN ATOR BUTLER.
We had a pleasant call and profitable
chat. yesterday, with State Senator
BUTLER, OF Jefferson, who, as the State
Lecturer OF the Granger organization of
West Virginia, is on his way to Tyler
county to instruct the members OF the
organization in that locality as to their
duties to their country, the State and
themselves.
We find it profitable to talk with
Senator BUTLER because ne leads us out
side OF the beaten path OF political and
partisan palaver into the more substan-
tial questions Of State polity to which
the Changers profess to be devoted.
So tar rs we have observed,
this organization has divorced itself
as fully from partisan questions As any
that has ever had an existence in the
State, and in continuing themselves strict
IN 10 the discussion of measures for the
elevation Of the farming population,
such as rates of taxation, rates OF trans
pOrtation, rates OF interest on money,
and other questions OF like character,
they are doing much to establish an in
tclligent and healthy condition among
the 'boue and sinew" OF the State. Ii
there We're no other good to result from
these organizations than the mere bring
ing of the farmers together to exchange
views upon matters pertaining to their
common interest and occupation, and
cultivatinga social feeling among a class
of people who must necessarily lead iso-
lated lives to a great extent, the result
would be altogether cOmmendable.
We found Senator BUTLER as much
indiSpoScd to discuss purely political
questions as is the organization which
he represents. political discussion
would disrupt our organization, said
the senator, because it is composed OF
men Of all parties, who have their in
diyidual views upon all public questions
and have a right to act and vote indie
pendently OF any or all other members
OF the organization"
We inquired of him whether the Pro-
posed Constitutional amendments,
were among the questions of State poll
ty discussed by his organization. lie
replied that they were not. So far as
he had gathered the opinion in
his travels through the State,
there was a very marked
difference in the sentiment of the people

THE BURR'S MILLS CAMP
GROUND.
Last Day of the Meeting-ClOs-
ing Ceremonies.
Correspondence OF the Register

Correspondence OF the Register.
BURR's MILLS, August 20.
''Far in the east coming glory shone
and morning broke" the morning OF
the day when good-byes must be spoken
and the friends who have together en-
loved a sweet week of quiet JOY must
say farewell, and feeling OF regret and
sadness fills the heart when we remem-
Der that the coming year will certainly
bring many changes, and some loved
face will be missed when we gather upon
the Burr's Mills camp-ground in 1880.
Who il shall be none can tell; yet with
perfect trust in One who alone holds
the kew to tine dim future OF our being,
we are satisfied.
We are going home tomorrow, and
there seems to be a general regret that
this bright and lovely day is the last We
shall enjoy i'll this grand old woods.
The regular prayer and praise service
was held at $50 o'clock in the taberna-
Gle. At 1890 a grand, good sermon by
Rev. S. Burt, which was greatly enjoyed
by his hearers, at the close OF which the
sacrament of the Lords supper was
administered. What feelings came over
us as We witnessed this service, dOubly
impressive when surrounded by all the
brightness and beauty, which lie whose
death this service commentaries, crea-
ted for our happiness. Each tree and
sprout seemed to speak as with tongue
OF fire, and adding their praise, I'M
spoken but eloquent, joined, as it were,
in the grand praise God from whom all
blessings flow
At , o'clock the children's meeting
was held ut the grand stand, which was
addressed by several speakers, who
know how to entertain the little folks,
and make their bright faces glow with
pleasure.
The usual afternoon sermon followed
by PRAYER meeting, and then pleasant
intermiSsion for supper and talk, and as
we listen to the pleasant conversation OF
friends we can but mark how free from
GOSSIP it is. Not one unkind word have
we heard, and the best of feeling is mani
tested one toward the other. Can not
this spirit of love and good fellowship
become popular in our home? God
hasten the day when this feeling may
permeate every home and tireside i'll our
bright land, and over the door ways in
letters of light be inscribed Peace and
good will" Another and the last SER
vice at the stand at . O'Clock, when We
were entertained by Rev. Rider, from
Ezekiel 33, IL. This was sound dis
course and we'll received. The general
walk around followed, and the cordial
hand clasps of friends, while the choir
sang, I'VE are going home tomorrow, "
and the fcrvent Good bless you, =" and
"Nes we'll gather at the river" all
blended in one grand anthem OF JOY and
praise, and the old camp ground re-
echoed the grand song, and far into the
night rang out sweet music, and all
seemed to regret that the good byeS must
be said and another year with its changes
be numbered in the past ere we should
meet again. Yet with trusting faith and
loving hearts good nights are spoken,
and sleep wraps in its sweet embrace the
peaceful inhabitants OF this beautiful
grove. ETHEL.

SOME Of the temperance reform and re-
formed orators might learn something
from the remark of Capt. RITTER at n
reformed mems convention at Indian
apolis. "The awful experience OF the
past Ought To be thought OF privately,
AMI mentioned publicly, very seldom.
Ii had ever been drunk and abused
my vile and family, | would keep that
Ia myself and beg them never to tell
it," And the sa-Icious Captain also
said: ALLOW me to suggest to men
who have left OIL diSsipated habits that
vour future usefulness and influence
viii consist more largely in what you
do than what the most eloquent OF you
may say. What YOU are now AMI shall
be are Of vastly more importance than
wha, YOU have been" VIII anybody

OPENING UP THE OHIO CAM
PAIGN

BY agreement between the Demo-
cratic and Republican Committees yes
terlay was the time appointed for for
mally opening the campaign over in
Ohio. Special preparations have been
making for some time past by the Re
publican Committee for a general boom
by the big guns all along the line, on
that dav. Sec. SHERMAN fired his gun
at Steubenyille, and Father TAFT at
Cleveland, and other prominent Repub-
leans had appointments in different
parts of the State.
The Democrats, on the other hand,
have chosen to reserve their fire, except
in the way OF little skirmishing here
and there over the State. General
EwIxG sounded the keynote few
weeks since in a very able and eXhaus-
tive speech at his home, and he and his
cOlabOrers have been more or less active
since that time. Nothing has been
wasted on mere sensationalism, but sub
stantial work is being put in wherever
it would do the most good. The DEM
ocrats seem to be in the best OF spirits,
and the most knowing among the prom
inent men of the party are apparently
the most sanguine OF successful result.
As the weather grows cooler and the
campaign approaches Il close, the forces
on both sides will be closed mp and
there will be Il clash OF arms such as
will resouHd throughout the country.
In the meantime the masses of the Peo-
pie are waking up to 4 comprehension
OF the issues involved. AS they begin
to think and feel upon these subjects
the enthusiasm will spread and the cam
paign warm up. The speech OF Gen.
EwIxG, which we have heretofore pub
liShed, gives the Democratic platform IN
a nutshell, and We give to-day very
full synopsis OF the Republican argu-
ments, as set forth in the speeches OF
Secretary SHERMAN and TAFT.
