two marching companies. This, with tn,
Young Voters and the Ward Clubs tha
will be organized soon, will make mint
marching clubs in the city. The Demo
Gratis as yet have none, nor do we heaI
any talk Of any, as the party is completl,
demoralized and split up into factions sc
that they can de nothing. Misery Likes

organ in this city, and an occasional line
in the Wheeling Register, are doing theiI

they are about, and are just enthusiastic
enough in the cause Of the Republican
party and the right to "fightitthrough on
this line II It takds all summer" The
notices 80 far OF this club in Democratic
papers have been tissue OF lies, and as
that is their natural calling we can expect
nor ask nothing better.
