FROM CESTERyILLE.

CENTERvILLE, Oct. 25, 1880.
The Hancock and English club met last
Saturday evening. After adding several new
names to the roll, they decided to have
Grand Rally on next Monday evening Novem-
Der lst. Speakers will be invited and gen
eral good time will be had.
After the meeting a Republican took the
floor to address the audience of Republicans,
which were about five in number. OF course
all the Democrats stayed to hear him or he
would have had no audience. His reading
was dry, but we had to "Bar it." He read
some copious extracts from the Democrat and
Republican platforms of 1850. In the reading
he aimed at Estate Rights" He also read
some extracts from speeches of Conkling and
Lyman Trrmball made between 1860 and
1865. He did not give any authority for any
thing he read. About the first assertion he
made was that the Democrat platform inter-
fered with religion, which any one knows is
not correct. 1t did not, nor never has, inter
| fered With religion.
We suppose he has not forgot some of the
doiny& of the Republicans Oh the same point,
| ahd 10 ca.i ps proved, Us II stanoS on lhS rec
ord Of Congress.
| Well. lc read at great length on various
topics That have no more to do with the issues
of t!.i; election than ''the man in the moon. u
He blamed the Democrats for causing the
great panic few years ago. He said the
Democrats icTced the Republicans to vote 70,
the bill. He said, 'Lincoln's Proclamation
liberated tine slaves aud not the 18th Amend
n:ent." Any one of good sense ought to know
that it was the ratification Of the Amendment
by three -fourths of the states And further
he said 'tthat when they submitted the
Amendment, not one Of the states engaged ir
the rebellion ratified.
He is well aware that all that were not un
der military Rule" ratified Immediately
also that the Southern States complied will
all that was necessary to again be admitted
into the Union.
He made one point when he said, ''the les
said about the fraud of 1876. the better i
would be for the Republican party" Blu
then he is excusable for that, as he did no
know any better than TO tell on his own party
Well, so much for him. "Pcace be to hi
ashes"
The Republicans will have grand flag pol
raising next Saturday. Old Lish Applega'
will be here to iack-up the pole. We woul
b. advise them not to 60 at too much expense
s they will not need it after next Tuesday.

reason. If Mr.. Kelly has any explanation to

UMArINE-This notorious chief was in
town this week. He was drunk. He was
disorderly. He struck white min in the face
with lasso and then galloped out of town.
He was followed and captured and placed in
durance vile Marshal wood had previously
disarned him of a bottle of whiskey. The
same old story. Some noble white man who
ought to languish in the penitentiary sells
these Indians whiskey. It seems to be no
ones business to find out who it IL.
