Petitions have deen received flor
few districts Of this county calling
for "Grand Democratic Rally

pedient to publish the petitions
They are signed by u number OF
democrats, and If generally knew
the occasion would doubtless be
grand feast. and promotive of ih
interests of the party. The Sta
hopes the petitiOne rs will take tn

call sufficiently early that all
