There was scarcely mail yesterday
that did not bring in reports OF the
number Of men coming or requests that
the local committees cooperate with
those writing in securing excursion
rates and trains.
The Americas Club, of Pittsburgh,
through It's secretary, Harry d. w.
English, writes u most encouraging let
ter; they are watching the fight that is
going on here and are gratiiied over
what is being done; they want to help
and propose 10 send down 200 men with
band. George N. Won Bonhorst, the
head Of the Allegheny County Ex-
ecutive Committee, writes that six
hundred sure can be looked for
from there. Washington Pa, Claysville
and West Alexander all promise good
delegations with bands, provided a fair
rate and return train that night can be
secured from the Baltimore & Ohio road.
East Liverpool and Beaver county PROM
Use something over 500 men, II the
Cleveland 4 Pittsburgh can be arranged
with for excursion rates and trains.
Martins Ferry is coming to the front
again in great shape, and Benwood, Bel
laire, MOundsville and other points
promise help.
By general consent Colonel W. IL.
Travis will be Chief Marshal Of the pa
rade. All the marching officers OF the
various clubs are requested to meet with
him ut Lincoln Club tomorrow evening
at 1880 o'clock, when he will select lis
staff, and with the advice of the march
ing officers lay out the route OF parUde.
There is an important thing or two
that the attention OF all good Republi-
cans is specially directed to: The visi-
tors who are coming to the city have
heard much about the work that is be-
ing done in West Virginia. Show them
that it is not all false by doing
everything possible to make Monday
nights demonstration Il success. II you
are able-bOdied turn out and march,
leaving supply OF fire works at home
for your family to burn. Don't stand
on the pavements and enjoy yourself
looking at the show, but 90 in
the ranks and help to make
the show the greatest ever seen here. Il
would be burning shame il the visitor
in town should outnumber the loca
marehers. Every Republican ought Il
turn out and march.
It will be a great time, and this timC
instead OF the ball the handsome cannon
"Young Tip" will roll.
StcubcnvIlIe to Join tho Americas Club.
The Stcubenville Herald Of last even
ing has the following OF special Interest
here just now: Col. II. G. Sherrard has
received two invitations for the Stanton
marching club 10 participate and gen
orul invitation for all the clubs OF tho
city. The first is from the Allegheny
County Republican Club inviting al
the clubs in the city to attend and par
ticipate in their grand parade on mex
Saturday night. The other comes from
the Ohio County Committee inviting
them to the big demonstration Mt Wheel
ing on next Monday night. The lettel
from Wheeling makes the invitation q
very pressing one, and asks for help il
causing West Virginia TO leave the SoliC
South and join the Republican ranks sc
that they can surprise the country next
November. In regard 10 the Wheeling
demonstration Col. Sherrard has also re
ceived from the Americas Club, o.
Pittsburgh, OF which he is a member, {
proposition for the Stanton Club to join
| them at Wheeling Junction and go to-
gether to Wheeling, The Stanton CluL
will take immediate action on both invi
tations. The most elaborate badge eveI
seen about here is that OF the Americas
Club which they will wear on their trir
to indianapolis. 1t is of red satin
fringed with gold braid, and has the
American flag and the name Of the clul
worked into the satin by hand.
