10 them It Is said that they sing better than other
men that their learned conversation is more under
sandable by ordinary folks than the wisdom OF other
professional people that they enjoy In degree lar
greater than the clergy Of other churches the affective
faculty of seeing and being funny that their ser
mons are shorter than the sermons Of other minister's
and that their digestive organs perfect to the very
end. II is written in q book, think and conscqenty
true that there is record Of Methodist preacher
suffering from either mental or physical dyspepsia
and If there be any who question this statement they
should not fail to take peep at the great assembly OF

physical appearance, great in purpose II IS the
whipped cream Of the $4,000 clergymen and the
5000, 900 Of laymen who compose its society. The In
spiraton that anmates its deliberations sits In power
and dignity upon the fine faces OF its members They
are men of strength. Their minds arc equipped for
thought and trained to produce It Their voices are
resonant and cultivated the arts OF clocution.
Their arms and legs assist them much in the effective
expression of their IDEAS for they 1--we, move and have
their beings before audience They know nothing
of hesitation, doubt or irresolution, for they como
together to please the whms of sections, or coun-
crafty personal ambition, not to win the applause Of
men, but they with the grand conviction rooted
in their moral beings the oak is rooted In the i'm
movable earth that their work IS the work Of Al
mighty God, whom no subtlety can deceive no artnce
please, whose eye percos all suberfuge, and whose
glory and honor accomplished by mono but honest
methods and righteous acts.

Does Mr.. Rube Summers remember the
| following letter; and what does ne think of
| the ''poor old Democratic party of Iron
County" now? Reuben, it was not "weak-
kneed," nor did it "tremble in Its boots."
last Tuesday. The Republicans of the
county and state sold out your Union Labor
party, hut the Democrats "cimbed" you
both. Here is the letter:
HURRAH FOR OLD IRON COUNTY!
Mr.. EDITORIAL meeting held in Ironton
on the 10th between delegates of the Farm
ers' Alliance and delegates of the Knights Of
Labor, from the various assemblies of both
organizations, it was decided to go in CO.
operation both In business and legislation.
We have not yet decided to put out a full
Labor ticket, but we think it is very prob.
aole we will. The poor old Democratic
party, that has been in power here in Iron
county so long, has begun to feel weak
kneed, and they are trembling in their boots
for fear we will put out ticket of our own;
for they know if we do we will carry the
county by large majority.
Most of our county officers that are in
office to day have been in office here for the
last twenty five or thirty years. This used
to be Republican county, and the same
men who used to fill the offices here as Re-
publicans, are filling them o-day as Demo-
Gratis. Consequently they have a right to
tremble in their boots: for they know the
F. A. and X. of L. are the majority in the
county, AMI if they put out a ticket they
can be counted on to man. They are men
that can't be bought for drink OF whiskey
or q glass of beer, and if they didn't see our
shadow last ground hog day they will the
next. Yours respectfully,
