S~rxuBENv1LLx, o., September 8.-The
second amendment folks are as mad as
hornets at the management OF the Opera
House because that gentleman refused to
rent them the house for the purpose
of hold q mass meeting, and are saying all
manner of nasty things and throwing out
naughty i~nsinuations ut him through the
papers and on the street. Mayor Reynolds
claims that as he refused the house for the
purpose of holding Q Republican meeting
in, ION the ground that . large crowd as
would ruin the fine carpets, etc., he could
not very we'll rent to the second amend
ment people. It is his intention as long as
he is manager of the house to
rent it for nothing but theatrical
performances, operas, concerts, etc, etc,
ard should he rent the house to one polit-
ical gathering be would have TO rent to all.
He has no feeling in the matter other than
keeping the house in its present excellent
condition; he b ad no fear OF the Amend:
ment people themselves, but there would
have been a morbid crowd OF curiosity
seekers-people who would not go into q
church to any kind OF q meetlng-Wno
would rush to the opera house-not TO
hear the virtues of the Amendment dis.
cussed-but merely to see the house,
that class Of people would soon make SAD
havoc of the Brussels carpets which adorn
the floors upstairs and down. Ii the peo-
ple would have q nice, clean, bright place
TO 90 when they want to enjoy q theatrical
performance or an opera they won't De In
favor Of renting the house to any political
gathering, whether it be Democrats, Re.

viii be upheld by the people
who patronize theatres and want a decent
place of amusement, N the second amend
ment people only hurt their cause by their
abuse on q man who was acting on his best
Judgment as an amusement caterer TO the
public. He wasn't afraid of the people who
were running the meeting, but the curl
osity seekers who don't care a strawf for the
second amendment or its discussions, but
who would just like to loaf IN the opera
House." =,
