1t is understood that the wee president
is to be the head OF the organization in bis
precinct, and a resolution was passed re-
Qucsting each Of them to proceed immedi-
ately to the organization OF young mems
club. The next meeting will be held at the
Courthouse on Monday the Odd Of October,
at which time Hon. John W. Daniel has
been invited to address the body. He Is
the idol OF the young men OF this county,
and | don't believe that even the State TX
ecutive Committee VIII be able to prevent
him from complying with our request.
Our nominee, Mr.. VI. W. Camper, made
his first speech Of the canvass Saturday
night ut Jackson. Lewis Linkenhoker
was advertised 10 speak for his hos, at the
same time and place, but he did not put in
his appearance.
In 1879 this precinct went almost Solidly
for Linkenhoker and Roadiu,tment. our
nominee got only fourteen votes, | think.
At our primary III votes were cast pledged
to our nominee, and changes are still going
on.
Mr. Camper, in a clear logical style,
showed up the evils Of the proposed Ma
hone legislation. such rs gerrymaudering
the State in the interest OF the Republican
party, legislating the circuit judges out Of
office, the cOmmiSSiOncr-Of-Sle bill, put
ting negroes over white schools, and other
evils embodied in the word Mahoneism.
He was followed by Il. Iladen, Esq, who
in a stirring speech pointed out the evils
which would befall the white people by
allowing Malone to get control Of the next
Legislature.
The white people OF Jackson now see
that they must stand together and you
will hear in November that we have ear
ried this precinct, verify believe.

FINCASTLE. Va. October 9. 1888.
Professor Thomas n. Conrad addressed
the MahoneiteS to-day, but | did not hear
him, as | WAS listening to the Democratic
speakers in another place, no division Of
time having been agreed upon.
Hon. Thomas Wallace, Of Orange. was
on hand rice Hon. George c. Cabell. re-
and made a good speech, spiced |
with many pointed and laughable anec-
dotes.
Our nominee, Mr.. VI. W. Camper, also |
spoke, and he acquitted himself WELL b. /
IIaden, Esq. was called upon, and made |
ringing speech. in which he exposed the !
corruption OF MahOneism in this county in |
he boldest and most uneqUivOcal terms. |
II il were not that we needed his services |
mere it would be well for the State Commit |
zee to press this young attorney into SER |
vice.
Democracy in this county Is on q tidal |
wave. and weeXpect to elect our candidate /
~ an unprecedented majority.
The negroes are organizing here, and /
will 20 solidly against us; but then we shall |
get number OF white men who don't wish !
o go with Africa into the war.
