Republicanis1n VS.. Democracy.

Probably never before in the history
of the city has a more intelligent, appre-
~,ciative and enthusiastic audience crested
a speaker than that which assembled
Wednesday evening to hear the debate
between M. N. johnson, North Dakota's
republican congressman, and James F.
*O'Brien, the democratic candidate for
the same office. The Atheneum was
filled to its greatest capacity, and from
the commencement of the debate until
the last word had been spoken and the
last argument advanced there was no
lack of interest. The stage had been
tastely decorated for the occasion.
Over the heads of the speakers, and the
representatives of both parties, who &C.
cupied seats on the platform, was the
banner Of the nation, control of whose
government each party is striving to
attain. In front and above were port
RATS of Harrison and Reid, artistically
arranged in frames of wheat, while below
these was a likeness of Cleveland, like
wise decorated. Back of all this was a
ban ner, on which was lettered the mot
toes of the republicans: "Protection,
reciprocity, honest money, free ballot,
free speech, ETC."
At about 8 o'clock the speakers were
escorted to the rostrum, and took seats
amid the noisy app ause of the audience,
and the rendition of a lively selection by
the band. After the applause had SUBJ
sided Gen. Hughes stepped forward, and
in a few timely words welcomed the
gathering. and announced the object Of
the meeting. He also stated that Mr..
Williams would preside over the meet
ing in behalf If the republicans and that
Nj. Hare would look after the demo-
cratic side of the house. ,s.a ..
Mr.. Hare introduced Mr.. O'Brien.
Mr.. Hare said that as the democrats
formed the Oldest party in existence it
was but just that they open all occa-
sions of the kind, and added, that while
he had nothing to say in regard to the
tariff he wanted to say a few words re-
garding pension matters. He knew that
Grover Cleveland had been accused of
vetoing many pension bills, and admitted
the truth Of the statement, but wished
tosay that o. the other hand he had
approved four times as many as n
other president, and was in full sym
pathy with the cause of the defenders Of
the union. Not all persons who served
in the war were republicans, as be.
(Hare) could testify, having been one Of
four brothers, all democrats, who aided
in the defense Of the flag. Two other
brothers remained at home, and these,
he said, were republicans. Mr.. Hare
said that this was all he wished to say
about the tariff. Which slip provoked
prolonged applause.
MIR. o'BRIEN
then opened the debate in behalf Of the
democrats, and prefaced his remarks
with the statement that the great qnes-
ton OF the present campaign was the
tarid, and, necessarily, proceeded to set
forthsthe views and ideas Of the demo.

Just a Word.

Friends, write the LEAF CHRONICLE
all the happenings in your neighbour
hood-the news, we mean. Refrain
from writing lengthy communica-
tions on abstract matters. Our space
is limited. Very often excellently
written articles on such subjects are
excluded, simply on account of their
length. The LEAF-CHRoNICLE is
eagerly read daily and semi.weekly
by many hundreds of people in
search of what they are sure to find
home and county news. In this
way it has been brought to its pres
ent position of influence and made
the most valuable advertising med
ium ever published in the GAINESVILLE
Tobacco District. In support of this
statement rapidly increasing sub
scription list tells the tale. Govern
yourselves accordingly.

Kind Words.

The new management makes its
bow to the Progress-Democrat and
others for the following kind expires
siOns:
"The TOBACCO LEAF.CHRoNICLE
deal, which has been the subject OF
street rumor for several days, was
this morning made public by the
transfer of the entire properties OF
Brandon & Barksdale to w. w.
Barksdale, who takes entire control
of the TOBACCO LEAF CHRONICLE.
w. w. Barksdale is too well known
to the people of GAINESVILLE and the
surrounding country to necessitate
anv words of commentator at the
hands of the Progress-Democrat.
Bill Barksdale is a clean man from
top to bottom. A courteous gentle
man and one who, by assiduous de-
votion to duty, has worked his way
from a roller wiper in the employ o.
the old TOBACCO LEAF, under the
management of M. V. Ingram, its
founder, to his present position OF

ciated with him in the financial
management of the paper, his

THE PYTHIAN HALL.
The New Room Elegantly Furnished and
Nearly Ready for Use.

The Knights of Pythias of this
city have one of the most elegant
temples in the State. The grand
structure is not yet completed WIN
out and only the hall on the third
floor has been finished, or rather not
quite completed, but has been fur-
nished and will be ready for use
in a few days.
The hall is 67x23 feet, with very
high ceiling and nine large windows,
which admit all the light and air
possible. Altogether it is one OF the
most admirably arranged halls Tor
the purpose that we have ever seen
1t has a we'll arranged room for the
regalia and other lodge property, a
splendid reception room, fitted up
like parlor, and a dark room III
which they will keep the goat. The
doors and windows are trimmed
with embossed satin walnut, the new
and elegant work gotten up by u. b
| Wilson q Co. The wainscoating is
also of embossed finish of different
colors in wood, which Is as beautlful
as the most elegantly carved iurnl'
ture. One of the handsomest carpets
that was ever seen on floor covers
the entire hall. This was furnished
by Bloch Bros. John F. Couts pu
in the elegant furniture that adorn
&. the hall. This consists of desks 10
the various .officers, stands for tn
officers and seventy-two chairs. In
officers chairs are high-topped
= cushioned backs and seats, while tn
wall chairs match in style.
The windows have not yet bee
Y furnished. They are to have elegan
e drapery hung on poles and rings
- The furnishing, when completed
IS will cost over 81 900.
u The hall is entered from Thir
street by broad stairway, finishe
up in beautiful style.
We congratulate this influentl'
and growing order on the erection
= this grand temple, and the way j
= which they have finished and fu
r nished it.
o Certainly it reflects credit on the
$ enterprising spirit and illustrate
I. their devotion to a most worth

taste and progressive spirit of II

A Missouri Snake Farm,

Sig. Don Allen and Senorita Lama
Lee, representing the j. E. Childs snake
farm at Chadwick, were in Ozark Fri
day and Saturday establishing agencies
for their rattlesnake OIL Miss Lee had
with her a pair of water moccasins that
she handled as though they were kit
tens. There is no doubt that snakes can
be petted as easily as anything else, and
FOR a UfIvico bvtwuun snakes aud aili-
gators we would certainly take snakes.
Among the many enterprises in south
west Missouri there is probably none
that attracts more attention than does
the snake farm located three -fourths of
mile due west of Chadwick. The farm
proper consists of about five acres, half
inclosed by q natural stone wall, or a
ledge.
On one side of this inclosure is a nat
ural rock cave, and out of this cave
runs an everlasting stream Of the purest
water. This spring being on the high
est spot of land IN the farm it is easily
conveyed to all places where needed.
Mr.. Childs has been dealing in snakes
and manufacturing rattlesnake oil for
over ten years, and finds it quite prof
table, as he supplies all species Of
snakes for exhibition purpose, all kinds
of snake curiosities and rattlesnake oil to
the drug trade, and clIars.5 III admis
sion fee of ten cents to all visitors who
come to the farm. He is now fixing up
the place for the summer trade, and
will have large pens built for the snakes,
with living pond of water in each one
and platform on the outside where
visitors may stand out of danger look
ing at the hundred different species, all
in their natural state, eating, drinking,
playing, swimming, fighting, sleeping,

DO YOU HAVE SICK HORSES ?

Many horses and cattle die every year
because no veterinarian is near at hand
and no reliable remedies are within the
reach of the stock owner, who is obliged
to dose them with saluratus, black pepper
and whiskey, hardwood ashes, linseed
oil poplar bark, Jamaica ginger, cop
peras. nitre and many other things that,
while they occasionally hit the mark,
have bad effect on the stomach, intes-
tines and other organs. There has been
great need for a full line of reliable
horse remedies to be found at every store
so as to be readily obtained in case of
necessity, AID the 2:30 Horse Remedy
Co., of Rutland, Vt, have put into the
drug stores of this vicinity IL different
remedies calculated for the ordinary dis
eases of animals. These remedies are
compounded by first-class veterinarian
of large experience and are all guaran-
teed to give satisfaction. See adv. in
another column.
