musket at a days warning" In this city and Au-
burn good men generally condemn the outrageous
fraud New developments serve to increase the fire.

morning by many leading citizens and many old
friends refused to recognize him. He made big
bluster in the Dewitt House Sunday and said he
had right on his side and he wasn't afraid of any
person or party.

in this city, arose in his prayer meeting last evening
and announced himself thoroughly opposed to the
action of the governor, and intimated that here
after he should act with the Republican party.
