the Republican party for the same

Then, let's take up
TIE NEXT CANDIDATE,
Mr. Pollock. He is opposed by gem
tleman Of wealth, who employs many
men, and who is supposed 10 have Pc
culiar hold on the men in his mill. He
has a peculiar political history. He-I
was going TO say served this district, but
the word is too strong. Elected by the
people, you know how be watched over
the interests Of the common people at
Charleston. You remember how he was
elected 70 represent the people, but
when there was fight on between the
people aud a corporation, he was found
on the side of the corporation. The
records OF the Legislature show
these facts, aud all can there
read them. Mr.. Pollock is not that sort
of man. You will not find him absent
from his seat, called away by private
business when elected TO position Of
public trust. Mr.. Pollock has served
the people before. He has taken part
ia your city government, and has given
complete satisfaction. He has never
failed In his duty, and he will not do so
al Charleston.
Then about
THE LEGISLATIVE TICKET.
10 taking il up for comparison with the
Republican ticket, / am reminded Of a
conversation between the First Napo-
leon and the astronomer. La Place. La
Place had gotten into tine-Spus argu-
ment, dealing with iufantissimal guam
ties, when Napoleon said: Stop. On
your Internal littleness Of things.
1t is. the same thing with the
Republican ticket. Laughterl. There
is Mr.. O'Kane'S former COM
Detitor Laughter. Mr.. O'Kane
thought be had been elected by the
people 20 the Legislature, but he had
some trouble, aud 10 took two or three
trials here aud 10 Charleston to settle IT,

I'm reminded of little story. A col
ored man, who had only one eye, had
been sitting in little poker game, and
somehow had been pretty successful.
The thing went on for while, and
then a colored brother, who had
lost right along, pulled out a big
revolver and laid IL on the table, aud
remarked, Use gwine to see fair play

That's the way with me. I'll name no
names, but there are
SOME PECULIAR THINGS
about the Republican Legislative
ticket These things remind me Of
story about an English officer,
