The people of Chillicothe appear at
last to be fully aroused and some days
ago they had a monster meeting, at
which Arch. Mayo presided. We
publish in another place the remarks
Of that brave and true man, Gen. S.
III. Hurst.

licothe do not side with DR.. Howard
Crosby, that preachers should put in
all their time with some ''hifalutin"
foolery about another world, and let
this world go to the devil. Here is

Rev. Father Murray sal J Il one Ofthe committee
that called the meetings that it intended that cit
Zens should have the chance to their opinions
Clergymen were not to De called upon, and he was
here only to express sympathy by his presence this
he must do by virtue of his ordination. He did not
look upon this matter from commercial light, nor

looked upon 1T as crime against God, and that was

determination, and while denounce the evil let
them know that we have no personal feeling.
Rev. j. o. Pierce being called said he glad to
this uprising of the people in the interest of good
morals. We have nice city and good, jolly people
but we have got in the wrong road If the laws have
been violated it must be stopped. He did not believe
the gamblers knew how much wrong they had done
their As Father Murray had said the
clergy had come there because they had immortal
souls in their charge, He believed if the gamblers
knew the harm they doing they would be
ashamed of it. Citizens are much guilty gam

fore the od goose has hung high and grown fat, it
is now time TO take it down that may have peace
