There was very large and enthu-
siastic attendance at the Garfield and
Arthur club room on Wednesday even
ing of this week. After the usual form
alities, Hon. Geo. N. Dale addressed
those present for over an hour, his ap-
pearance being the signal for a hearty
burst of applause. He reviewed in a
concise and comprehensive manner,
illustrated by local sketches, the record
of the Democratic party in all its
phases. He was frequently interrupt
ed by the exhibition of an enthusiasm
that promises good results on election
day. At the close of his speech the
meeting was adjourned for one week.
We announce with sincere pleasure
that the necessary funds for making
the final payment upon Christ Church,
Island Pond, have been secured by
quiet but determined effort within the
last two weeks. 1t is expected that the
Bishop of Vermont will consecrate the
Church some day in the latter part of
September. The exact date we will be
able to announce later. 1t is a deep
JOY and gratitude to many hearts that
this beautiful Church is now free from
all pncum branca and so soon TO he set
apart to Gods service forever. The en-
tire cost Of the Church, without reckon.
ing interest, has been somewhat over
$1,000.

was declared the nominee. Mr.. Root
in thanking the convention for the
honor conferred upon him, said he
thought there were better men in the
county than him, but if he should re-
ceive majority at the next N1cem5er

duties pertaining to that Office, and
further, that whether Mr.. Nichols was

he would most assuredly be elected.
These suggestions however were not
approved of and a resolution was car
