court house yesterday, and large num-
Der of farmers was present from all
parts of the county. Several commun-
ications from the state agent of the ma
tional union were read relative to the
establishment of branch store of the

county. The idea found considerable
favor among the farmers, and com-
mittee consisting of MesSrs. Stephen
Powell, Andrew Richmond and John
Thelander was appointed to look up
suitable location, and to communicate

question, however, found little favor

intend purchasing their Irvine at the
prison factory. Several speeches were
made ind0rsing the Peoples party plat
form, and all the members present were
confident that the Peoples party is the
coming great party, and that their cam
didates will poll large vote at the next
