On Saturday about noon the special
train bearing Hon. James G.. Blaine,
arrived at this place. There was an
immense crowd, between four and FIVE
thousand people, copyrighted at the
depot. 1t was thought best to have
the train stop above the depot, on the
high ''fill' so that Mr.. Blaine could
address the people from the platform
Of the car, and be above the heads Of
the crowd. The people were there
fore invited to go to that point, and
did so. When the train stopped Mr..
Blaine stepped upon the platform of
the car and made a short address,
knocking into "smithereens" the Free
Trade, copperhead lie, about his own
ing stock IN the Hooking Valley. He
stated that he owned coal lands in
Pennsylvania, and in West Virginia.
and that mo difficulty has ever occur
red at any works in which he is inter
ested" This expression was loudly
cheered by the great crowd Of miners
present. Mr.. Blaine talked perhaps
five minutes, being loudly cheered.
Old pap Baker was brought to the
car and Mr.. Blaine took him by the
hand. If the old man lives to vote
for Blaine, this will make his nine
teenth Presidential vote.
While Mr.. Blaine was making his
manly, brave speech, a little gang'of
drunken Democrats were circulating
lies through the crowd, about what
he was saying, and after he had gone
they flooded the town with lying pos
ters. These were sent to Irve Dun
gan. We learn that Irve denounced
Blaine as liar, at Wellston but we
trust this is mistake, as Blaine.
would undoubtedl withdraw, should
he hear it. The visit Of Blaine did
good here, and the lies of the Free
Traders fall on deaf ears now. Our
zeal Democratic politicians are doing
I good work for Blaine.

.-r-in-law, of Michigan, are here on

THE AMERICAN H0C.

The hog has always played an import
ant part in the history of the world.
Money is said to be the root Of all evil,
but the hog is roofing at everything.
How would Noah have got along in the
ark If he had not carried Ham, And
the prodigal son. it will be remembered,
went West and got left on hogs. You
meet the hog everywhere; il you are on
journey to any part of the world there
is sure to be hog on the same route.
The human hog. like his four-footed
model, lives an easy life, and generally
dies with a great noise, always ''squeal-
ing" when he gets into tight place.
We all feed the human hog with flat
terry and scratch his back with compll-
ments in the vain hope that in an un-
guarded momeut be may let us into the
secrets of his successful life; while all
the time, if we did but know it, he has
no secret except that Of simply being
hog, and SO grunts complacently under
our admiration, aud the only cent we
ever get from him is a bad one.
The hog in business we all know; he
does not exert himself in any OF the
stirring affairs OF life, unless they are
likely to disturb his peace. comfort and
accumulation Of fat. He gobbles every
thing that comes in the way, leaves the
husks for the prodigal, and grows to be
a bigger hog than ever to the admira-
tion Of the world. The hog is often
big bore, but if lac is big enough he is
endured with patience and respect. He
rarely gets into hot water until after
his death. for he simply assumes that
the world and everything in it belongs
to him, and it is generally conceded
him because he is hog.
The railway hog is one of the best
known of the species; he occupies the
best seat for himself, puts his hoofs in
another and his baggage in third.
He is deaf aud blind TO all hints or the
incouveniences Of others, aud if there is
any trouble the hog is willing to save
his bacon At hotel the hog gener-
ally secures the best rooms and the
greatest attention from his weight and
name from the time the register bears
the entry of "Mr, Boar Bristles and
lady. L. Poker Bristles, Miss Brlstles,
Titman 2. Bristles and nurse"
What an important being the hog in
Office isl Everything is comfortably
creased for him, and if the public insists
upon coming into close contact with
HIM they are sure to feel his bristles
We have all encountered the hog in Of
fee as Government official, railway
officer, ticket-seller Of theatre, or
even the policeman or horse.car con-
ductor.
The hog belongs to no particular ma.
tlon. He Is cosmopolite. The Amer
lean eagle sinks into insignificance be-
side the American hog, and what is the
stutiing of the American turkey to his?
All who have been abroad know that
the British lion is not half so prominent
in England as the British hog. That
the Gallic cock is not SO prominent as
the Paris porker. Have we not told
the Frenchman that if he bars out our
hog we shall shut down on his (s)wine!
In Germany when the hog rubs his back
against the throne the kingdom totters.
Are there any ties between this and
