ADDRESSES, and although the audience was largely
composed Of Democrats, it wa, plainly shown thai

duct by Mr. Pryor, with the assistance Of several
members OF the association. and tn; ease opits work
ing was plainly demonstrated. The league was
organized only the night before election. and frequent
meetings Will be held until next election.
