democrats OF the district may DO relied on
to do the rest
There seems to be no particular interest
manifested at Albany in the approaching

peace, followed by the maledictions of those
| whom he has not hestated to curse and
mslign in the past.
Daniesville Monitor: Neal Little, the
democratic nominee for representative from
| Franklin county, is young man OF no or

acted wisely In placing Mr.. Little at the
| head of her ticket. Mr.. Little will make a
| valuable representative, as he is sure to de-
feat Holbrooks, the third partyite.
Thomasville Enterprise: At a

carry their plans through, but the object is
/ to draw the third party people from the
democratic rally on the same date.

| sidewalk orator escaped from Ed LiTtleton's
private asylum for insane politicians yes

recy upon the sidewalk. While prancing
around before gang of loafers, his coat

tie mule colt over at Chestnut mountain.
Most OF the democrats are anti-stock law
men, and want their old razor back sows to
live on honest men, just like they want to
live on the third party. We are gong to
try to do better; there is nothing wrong
about this" To which the Journal iEepIies
THAT is all right about the absence of DEM

Peek, who arrived in the city Friday night,
left yesterday morning by private convey
