MARrINsBURG, W. Va, Oct. 16.-By
all odds the greatest Republican mees-
ing ever held in this city was the one
held here last night. The rink, which
seats over two thousand people, was
literally packed. More than one hun
drcd ladies' wero present. The meeting
was gotten up by the Wisner Republic
can club, OF which Capt. w. Newt
Lynch, formerly of Wheeling, is the
president. He was chairman OF the
meeting.
Hon. G. W. Atkinson was the only
speaker. For over two weeks the club
had been at work arranging for the
meeting. No pains were spared to
make it the meeting OF the campaign
for Berkeley county, and everything
seemed to work harmoniously to make
it an overwhelming success. Such n
grand gathering OF people was never
known before. ONLY one crowd in the
past was equal to it and that was the
time when Golf and Wilson had the
memorable debate here in 1888.
When the speaker appeared on the
platform the cheering lasted for nearly
i've minutes. No man in Virginia,
not excepting General Goil, has the
strong hold on the people OF Berkeley
county that Mr.. Atkinson has. He has
the respect of everybody and all delight
to honor him. He seemed to be at his
best and for two hours and half he
held the vast audience at his will.
Heis beyond doubt the best posted
man in West Virginia politics, and
being thoroughly educated man and q
natural orator he has no trouble to COM
mand the unbounded attention OF an
audience.
He discussed every question at issue
in tho campaign in such way as not
to offend any one, at the same time to
convince every one of the sincerity Of
his motives and the justness OF his cause.
Over two hundred Democrats were
present and many OF them admitted
that his arguments wore unanswerable.
Berkeley county will respond to the call
OF her country on the 8th oil November.

woMEY's VOTE.

TNe woman's vote is the only great
weapon OF reform. The woman's vote
with the enlightened mans voto will
sweep the country OF its deGradations
and redeem the world. For woman's
vote would certainly be directed to
reform in all social questions and to
raise the standard of mortality. The
woman's vote would settle tho liquor
question itself which tho saloon vote
under present conditions will never
permit. With women in politics and
the saloon out OF politics what may we
not hope for.
But / will not dilate at greater length
upon these questions which are rapidly
of their own importance asserting
themselves for solution. | will simply
present q list OF some OF the chief
heads OF proposed reforms under con-
alteration in q humanitarian platform
which alone offors the ideals tending
to the constant and continuous elova-
ton OF mankind. 1t proposes revenue
and tariff reforms. Tribunals Of health.

LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE.

Mrs. Martin gave out for publication
her letter of acceptance Of the nomina-
tion for President by the convention of
women suffragists. The letter begins
by stating that the nomination upon a
woman's suffrage platform commends
itself to the writer especially from the
fact that the issue is one which was
originally raised and advocated by her
and others as long ago as 1870, before
Congress, and was afterwards main
tanned as the principal plant in the
platform OF the woman's suffrage cam
paign OF 1879, when my name was pre-
sented rs the first female candidate for
President OF the United States"
Mrs. Martin then quoted at length
from her address as delivered during
the campaign, inwhice she. argued that
the fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments to the constitution permitted
this right OF suffrage to women and she
earnestly commends all good women to
persistently demand this right Old
constitutions are incompetent to deal
with the new conditions. The advance
in science has shown personal condi.

tions Of progress. ltis becoming justas
necessary now to consider the impor-
tant subject of breeding intelligence
and physical culture in tho human race
as it is in inferior animals. In order to
accomplish such results, and, will add,
to overcome the conditions of crime, in

your resolution, new regulations must
be proposed for society. Nay, more, we

Lice on the Little Hop Vines.

TACOMA, April 2S--Lspecial- l-senator
Thompson was here today from Sumner.
Regarding the hop crop he said:
II is too early to make snr prediction, still I
will say that the only way to insure a crop this
year is to begin spraying vines inst soon a.
they are up any distance, and keep right on
spraying. The lice are now on hcrs that are
over foot high. Professor Riley 90 the con-
trary. notwithstanding, the hop louise Is in the
hop hills, aud goes from the hill TO the vine. To
save the crop vines must be freely sprayed
Secretary Tonneson, of the state board
of horticulture, says the bug or louise
found by himself and president BUGGY IN
the hop hills may not be the genuine hop
louise, but still, at the same time, Professor
Riley is mistaken in holding TO the theory
that the louise winters on the plum tree
only. Mr.. Tonneson says hops now up
have lice on them. The inference is the
lice come from the ground or the hop hill.

demand has been made upon Governor
Barbour by the deputy sheriffs of John

that they would receive a fair
and impartial trial. Governor Barbour's
reply to these demands is not ready. He
will, it is said, positively decline to turn
over the prisoners at this time. Matters
will remain in statu quo until information
against the stockmen is filed by the prose-
cutting attorney. The attorneys of de-
PENDANTS will then apply for change of
venue on the ground of the excitement
that prevails in Johnson county. Reports
from that locality indicate lawless con-
diiion of affairs. Two newspapers op-
posed to the rustlers have suspended
Late this evening Governor Barbour
sent written reply to the deputy sheriffs,
in which he says no criminal proce edings
have yet been commenced, and he deems
it unnecessary expense and labor to hold
preliminary examination in this man
ner. Neither does he believe order so re-
stored and excitement so abated in John
son county as to render it safe to take
these prisoners there at this time.
