Mr.. EDITOR I'VE were favored here on
Saturday last with Democratic meeting and
pole-raising, and considering the heat of the
day and the lack Of enthusiasm 10 the party,
it was quite well attended and better behaved
than most Of such gatherings are. We MOTTO
ed at about $50 o'clock in the afternoon, a
wagon with hay-rack on and drawn by four
black horses and about half loaded with men
and boys coming into town, from towards
your city and in the wagon, held by some
one of the party, was a campaign banner
marked on one side with the names of the
Democratic presidential candidates, aud when
the party saw it they proposed three cheers
(which were given in a moderate tone, as
the day had not advanced far enough for good
cheering But after while the banner was
turned around and the other side exposed to
view, and what they then beheld looked like
shaking the "bloody shirt" for on it was in-
scrbed the following I" The Democrats
Must and Win Preserve the Union, or Civil
War Will be Suspected" This banner was
supposed to belong to very prominent can
didate for the Assembly, living just on the
hill above your city, and, we are informed it
was his team that brought it here. But, be
that as it may, il it was gotten up by him and
brought by his team, he certainly showed
some shame about it, as he came in a carriage
following the banner. Perhaps he did this to
have better opportunities to gaze on it and
admire his handiwork also that he might
watch the effect 1t would have on entering
the town. But / guess he went away not
satisfied with the impression it made, for
when the crowd noticed it they just looked at
one and another /; and one says What in
the thunder does he mean ?" Another says :.
Tell him to take it down !" Aud SO it went
all through the audience, condemnng it on
all sides, until at last some one got it turned
so that the largest part of the crowd could
not see it. The gentleman might have
thought it smart and just the right thing to
catch votes with, but the most of his party
around here can't see it in that light, and con-
sequently will sour on him-some thinking
he displayed very bad taste and worse gram
mar in the composition of it. He will have
to come up through here again with dog and
gun and run some of them down or they will
get away from him before caucus.

Mr.. EDITOR The unterriied of this place
and vicinity came together on last Saturday
afternoon, for the purpose of raising hick-
DRY pole, which they put as close to the wills
key shop as they could well get it. Well,
this is all right, as the rum-seller is about the
only one benefited by these gatherings, and
they have need of money. just at this time
they might want to cash some ninety dollar
checks again. Well, after the pole was up
and a few dimes dropped into the landlord S
till, MIR. Kuhl, from the county-seat, we'll
known as a Reformed Republican," gave
his hearers an address on the subject of the
political state of our country, and in order to
blackguard Gen. Garfield he had to eulogize
the martyred Lincoln, and made him out a
perfect character, and right on the top of il
he said that the South had been most shame
fully imposed upon by the same party that
Mr.. Lincoln was leader of, and he himself
was heart and hand along with the Republic
can party. But his eye is on certain Office,
which he hopes to get some day by doing the
dirty work of his adopted party. He went on
to tell his hearers that that South had had
control of only about one half of the govern
ment for the last two years and had saved the
nice little sum of forty millions of dollars. -
But in what way, he failed to give any very
minute account. But all of his hearers who
are at all interested in government affairs
could easily tell that the money was saved by
robbing the government of its needful sup
port. He also thought it great shame to
give the Republican party any credit that
specie payments have ever been brought
about. He went over great " hurly- burly T"
about the miners and laborers digging the
ore and producing the gold and silver to be
coined into money, and finally said that we
had no one to thank for the benefits of specie
payments but the Great Giver of all good -
Well, we do, from the bottom of our hearts
thank our God that he ever gave us Con-
gress with the good of our country at heart,
the result of which brought about the pass
age of the Resumption Act, that has SO beau
tifully ended in specie payments. But he said
it was brought about by the enormous crops
of grain that the country had been blessed
with for the last three years. II we had big
crops for forty years what would it have to do
with specie payments unless an act was pass
ed to call in the currency and pay out the
gold and silver. He gave his hearers small
account of the postmasters, how they were
obliged to shell out at these times to help
their party carry on their election schemes
He got his information from few Bourbon
postmasters in this county. But as the ev-
ening was growing short he wound up by
urging lis listeners to persevere in the good
old way, and after few more doses of bed
bug poison, the party left WATCHER.

meeting to order, and after some good sing

was introduced. He spoke upon the issues of
the past and present, and was listened to
closely, aud he handled his subject with cred
it. Then H. B. Eastburn, Esq, was intro
duced. He confined himself principally to
present issues. His closing words treated of
the importance of tariff for protection to
American labor. The turnout was large.
At the same time Democratic meeting

hung out The Democratic Club of Lambert

HOW TO
GET Clothing
under Price.

IF we could sell a little
more of this and a little less
of that, we could make
things come out even-the
last man that came in would
carry off the last suit; but
we can't. Out of every
stock there are a great many
sizes left when some are
gone. The best we can do
with these incomplete assort-
ments is to mark them low
enough to set a great many
people looking among them
for bargains.
This we do every day at
this time of year ; and just
now we have enough of
such to stock a little store.
Besides, odd parts of suits
get left-coats, vests and
trousers. We have a room
in which there is nothing
else. There is in that room
cheaper clothing than you
have any notion of. We call
it the Bargain-Room.
These marked-down suits
and garments are of all
sorts; they may be among
the best in the store.
We force a continual clear
ance of such articles as
would only embarrass US;
and keep our stocks always
fresh and full.

"A Sociable was held by Tuscarora Tribe
of Red Men, No. II, in their g Wigwam,' y in
this city, on last Saturday evening. The fam
lilies and friends of the order we're in attend
ance, and the turn out was large. About 1876
children were included with the visitors The
evenings exercises commenced by going
through with the usual form of g opening
the LODGE which was followed by short
speech from Mr.. Adds Bice. His words were
words of welcome and congratulation. w. F.
Hayhurst, Esq, was then called upon and
made short address, giving an historical
sketch of the ancient Tnscarora Tribe of In
dams. The evening was exceedingly warm,
and the children were so restless as to make
speech-making an uphill business. A giant
watermelon and canteloupe feast, patronized
by perhaps not less than 3U0 persons, was the
next feature participated in. There was
great interest manifested at that point, and
the melons were devoured In wholesale num-
bers. The children were also treated with
candies, presented in small paper bags. Games
of various kinds were next INDUCED in. The
" Pale Faces y and q Red Men," and "theiI
sisters and cousins and aunts . all shared in
the amusements. At proper hour the So
ciable was concluded.
The occasion was one calculated tt
strengthen the ties Of sociability and friend
ship-which are elements Of power, any
where-and no doubt, as result of the
Tribes effort to please, the circle of Tusca-
rora's friends will be widened, and her mem
bership continue to show encouraging sign
of increase.

them--and return them to their proper town

We notice that The Beacon gives Mr.. Forau
the credit OF doing this on his individual au-

dred dollars. This is ridiculous. What right
would Mr.. F. or any other freebooter have to
remove any insane person from the Asylum

a culvert on Franklin street, to which it re-

it. " Experts would have no difficulty in
