Hon. VIM T. Wilson having been chal-
lenged to meet a distinguished Republican
Congressman in joint discussion at several
points in New York State, he was unable to
address the Democracy of Hampshire coun-
ty, but he was ably substituted by Congress
man Bland of Missouri. The Romney Re
riec speaks in eulogistic terms of the speech
of the great AIissourian. The Revielg says
Mr.. Bland apoligized for the absence OF
Hon. VIM. L. Wilson, for whom he answer
ed, by stating that he was now in New York
engaged in joint discussion with one of the
ablest men in the Republican party on the
tariff question. In reference to Mr.. Wilson,
he said that not Democrat nor Republi-
can in Congress stood higher in the estima-
ton of Congressman and Senators as an
orator, scholar and legislator.
The people Of Hampshire were appealed
to in the strongest terms to return Hon.
VIM. L. Wilson to Congress, because we
need men of power and influence and those
who are unpurchasable and able to with
stand the temptations that the moneyed plu-
trocrats throw around them in the halls OF
Congress and he knows Mr.. Wilson to be
such man. Mr.. Bland says Mr. Wilson is
the best man in the House and is more fear
ed by Speaker Reed than any other man.

The Winchester District Of the Baltimore
Conference of the NJ. E. Church, South, re-
Gently in session at Front Royal, considered
the project of establishing within the bounds
of the District Conference school of high
grade as feeder to their great Church College,

Methodist boys. The Land improvement
Company of Front Royal and Riverton pro-
posed, if they would select Front Royal rs
the site of the school, to donate five acre
lot, eligible for said purpose, and to give
IS 900. if the balance of $4,000 should be
raised by the Church, or $25, 900 if $4,000
should be the sum for such establishment.
The Improvement Company at Middletown,
Frederick county, made an offer of fifteen
acres for the site-beautiful for situation,
and $1,000 in cash, and one hundred and
sixty building lots, the minimum value of
which would be $4,000, and no conditions
save the establishment of the school there.
