prohibition Meotlng in sparta.

Last night 5, II. Rockhill and John
Danner held political meeting at
Sparta which was rather novel affair.
On Saturday evening last Judge Faw.
cett and Mr.. Gibson had u meeting In
the school house In the same village,
aud the Prohibitionists supposed they
would also be allowed TO use the school
house, but II was denied them. They
were further told that there had been
threats made TO stone them IL they lm
dertook TO hold meeting, but they
were not intimldated They borrowed
n dry goods box of Mr.. Ranney, u mer-
chant, who showed his dlsapproval of
the meeting by putting the lights out
iust MS soon rs Mr.. R0ckhlll started In.
However, the PrOhibitlonlsts had lights
OF their own, as they were not like the
foolish virgins, who started out with no
oil in their lamps. For time a lot Of
well. trained boys made the night hid
eous with yells for Harrison and Nor.

and kept on talking. After q while
the Republicans, one by one, and finally
In pairs and groups came out of their
hiding places and gave Mr.. Rockhlll u
hearing. How the Democrats will be
treated in that Republican stronghold
remains TO be seen.
