Local Option In the 1st Distr let.

GARRETT COUNTY, Aug. IL, 1884.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN "A goodly
gathering of voters and ladies from
the surrounding neighborhood as
sembled this evening in Mt. Zion
Church to hear Local Option speeches.
Near the appointed hour the meeting
was called to order and the following
named officers unanimously elected
for the occasion: President, John l..
Sharpless Vice Presidents, William
Myers, John f. Bernard, F. r. Sh 'rp-
less, Solomon Tasker and Benjamin
Coleman Secretary, Gilbert w. Tur-
ner.
After an appropriate explanation
of the object of the gathering, G, M.
Miller, of Swanton, was introduced.
He spoke upon the right of the peo'
pie to enact Local Option measures,
and warmly urged the voters to exer-
else that right in the interest of a
common safety at the approaching
election.
Rev. Peregrlne Wroth, of Balti-
more City, was next introduced. Mr.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1884-08-23

Wroth, in a speech no less marked
for its beauty than ability, captivated
and held the ears and hearts of his
audience an hour or more. The rev.
erend gentleman dwelt with ANNA
ted force upon the reduced taxes, de-
minished business in criminal courts,
and the increased prosperity and hap
piness of the people wherever Local
Option has been adopted and main
tanned. He argued from the stand
point of a master of his subject, and
whether drawing from the facts of
history. the logic ofreason or pathetic
incidents of personal observation, he
was equally feIicitous in securing the
attention and the Judgments of his
points in the minds of his hearers.
We learn that this is the fourth and
last address delivered by Mr.. Wroth
during the past two weeks in the 1St
district on the cause Of temperance,
and that he returns now to duties in
Baltimore. May the seed so lovingly
sOwn in this mountain soil grow to
trees of perpetual life, spreading their
branches and opening their flowers to
endless posterities.

Governor Pierce's Queer Reply TO
q Sheriffs Urgent Gail
g. For Troops.
>.:,cy
Wait Until the Property Of Your County Is
Destroyed and Your People Murdered
and Then Appeal to the Courts.
You May Thus Lose Everything, But You
VIII Gain Great Credit For
Fofbearance.

BISMARCK, OAK, December pam
other dispatch was received from the
Sheriff of Roberts County by Governor
Pierce yesterday afternoon from Traverse,
OAK, as follows: "Your telegram re-
ceived. We can't get guns for the citi-
zens. There will be an armed mob Of 100
organized men who will be here in twen-
ty'iour hours, saying they will burn the
town and hang every man in it II 1t don't
give them the balance OF the records.
Your immediate attention will save prop
erty and bloodshed."
The Governor said he looked upon the
difficulty as an incident in the quarrels
between the two towns, and doubted II a
dozen men were engaged in the unlawful
features OF 1t; that he should telegraph
the Sheriff to-day II an armed mob or
other persons gain possession OF the prop
erty or records unlawfully, TO get war
rant for its recovery and for their arrest,
and he (the Governor) would aid, II need
be, by all the power at his command, to
enforce the warrant; but until some more
urgent necessity becomes apparent for
the use OF troops, the call will be de-
cllned. The courts, he believes, will do
exact justice, and all will find the most
satisfaction, and certainly the most credit
for themselves and for the Territory, in
awaiting their action.

Religious Services In Music Hall as An
Offset for Sunday Opening.
NEW ORLEANS, La, December o.
There has been some opposition mani
tested against opening the Worlds Ex-
position on Sunday, but the management
wisely concluded that the laboring classes
were entitled to consideration in the mat
ter, and as they could not attend during
the week, 1t was decided to open the
gates to them on Sunday, and provide re-
ligious services in Music Hall for all who
desired to attend. To meet the limited
means of the working people, the price of
admission was reduced from fifty to twen-
ty-fve cents. The day was bright and
warm, with the thermometer above sew
enty degrees and soft south wind blow
ing. "a
The number Of visitors to the EXPOSE
tion was very large. The crowd began to
flow into the grounds at an early hour,
and there was steady stream Of visitors
throughout the day.
At 1880 p. m. sacred concert was
given by the Mexican Band, whose services
Manager Gittaw, the head of the Mexican
Commission, had rendered for the occa-
sion.
At two O'Clock the Rev, C. A. Allen, q
Unitarian, opened the religious services,
and delivered short sermon to a fair
audience, upon the conclusion of which
the concert was resumed, and continued
until four O'Clock.
