the dust ont of carpet as we do. 1 am in
favor of charging so much yard and hiring
q secretary who has got enough education
10 count the yards On account of my old
2z,e and good learning L think 1 would be
the proper person to select for secretary

erv speech, and then it became appar-
ent that every one present wanted to

freedom than the colored race itself When
last heard of the members of the union
were pounding each other with as much
force as they hammered carpet. Meantime
Mr. CORVALLIS is trying to get together
more peaceable crowd for his union.
