After TWENTY-FIVE Years.

Last Thursday afternoon, June 9Th,
accepting the kind Invitation of Mr..
and Mrs. g. c. Brewer to the celebra-
ton oftheir silver wedding, we drove
out to their residence five miles north
of lola, anticipating pleasant occa.
sion. And our anticipations were more
than realized. Upon arriving, we
found the pleasant house and grounds
filled with many of the substantial cit
liens Of Carlyle neighborhood, most of
whom We remember pleasantly as val
ned friends of earlier years. Most
Of these, especially the older ones, time
has touched very lightly. A few more
gray hairs perhaps, but otherwise the
same. Among many who were there
we might mention, as those with
whose names Carlyle neighborhood Is
to us most closely associated, Rev.
and Mrs. Il. X. Lynn, Capt. J. W..
Christian and wife, Addison Cozine

lola REyOlCES.


Never in our recollection has the
nomination Of any candidate been re.
celved with such spontaneous and
wide spread rejoicing as was that OI
Jas, q. Blaine. When the news first
reached lola, the face ofevery Republic
can looked as though he had Just fallen
heir to an amounted fortune. Flags
were unfurled and the town took on
the appearance Of gala day. Owing
to the interference OF other public
matters, the formal demonstration
was postponed until Monday evening
When that time came the band was
on hand al the Opera House which was
oiled soon after eight o'clock with an
enthusiastic crowd, nearly half of
whom were ladies. After an opening
overture by the band, the
meeting was called 70 order and Mr..
Oscar FOust unanimously chosen
chairman. Upon taking the chair
Mr.. F0ust made one Of his charac-
teristic speeches, briefly bat eloquently
reviewing the history and
achievements of the Republican party
and highly eulOgizing the men who
have been chosen this year as its
standard bearers. The address
occupied about twenty minus and
was frequently interrupted by ap.
plause. Mr.. Eoust Is undoubtedly one
Of the strongest and best political
orators we have, and II Is to be hoped
that he will be often heard dnring the
coming campaign. This address was
followed by a campaign song arranged
for the occasion by chorus of ladies
and gentlemen. Mr.. J. H. Fisher was
then called for and made a stirring
speech, declaring his firm faith i'm the
success of the Republican ticket next
fall. He was followed by A. G. Scott
