that Mr.. Parr has greater facilities
for ascertaining the doings of the
national treasury than has Secretary
Carlisle.
The gentleman is a fluent speaker,
but is by no means an orator, and
barring his grammar made a good
talk for bad cause.
Concerning his status and chances
OF success, We think he was nearer
"par" when he began his canvass
than he will be when the votes are
counted in November.

The Tabernacle Meeting.

The tabernacle meeting, five miles
north of Keytssville. conducted by
Rev. AN. Buchanan, of the Cumber
land Presbyterian church, is contin-
uing into the 4th week and will con-
tinue over next Sunday.
The interest in the meeting has
steadily increased from the beginning.
Large audiences have been present
at all the Sunday appointments and
at night. The dsy services during
the week have not been largely at
tended owing To- the press OF farm
work.
Being away from home much of
the time we have not had the pleas
ure cf attending as much as we desir-
ed. We were there last Sunday alter
noon and Tuesday night.
We have attended similar meet
ings during our boyhood. but have
never seen a more serious audience
or heard more earnest. faithful
preaching.
As q preacher, Rev. Buchanan is
characterized py q zeal and earnest
nres that at once take hold oil his
audience. He delivers the gospel
message in.its beauty and simplicity.
using many apt Illustrations that
hold the attention of the hearer till
he is awakened TO a sense OF his guilt
and danger. followed by an earnest
desire to "fiee from the wrath to
come" The convictions seem deep
and powerful and the conversions
clear. There is no evidence or mani
festation OF "shoddy work" being
done at this meeting. The changes
in those protesting conversion
is so manifest that we feel satisfied
of its "abiding the ages"
The number OF conversions up to
Thursday night had reached 90. and
the altar then was crowded with
penitents.
The class OF persons reached range
from tender years to old age. Many
are young people between the ages
of 20 and 80 years. All the religi-
Gus clements OF the Deighborhood
are assisting in the the meeting and
are being benefited by il.
One feature of Rev. Buckhanan's
methods is TO defer opening the
doors of the church till near thec!ose
of the meeting, thereby giving the
converts time 10 weigh the matter
well, as TO their conversion and
fitness to unite with the church
A basket dinner will be had on the
grounds next Sunday.

Wedding Relfs.

SMoSs-PENNoCK:-Mr. Don Simons
and Miss Lille K. Pepnock, an elop'
ing couple from Glasgow, were mar,
ried, in Keytesville, last Friday
morning between 3 and O'Clock by
Squire III. A. Wheeler. Always &C
commodating, Recorder b. II. Smith
arose from his slumbers at that ear
ly hour and hied himself to the
courthouse TO issue the necessary
marriage license before the nuptial
knot could be tied. The prospective
bride was under age, hut the to-be
liege lord bore a written order pur-
porting to contain the signature of
the young lady's paternal ancestor,
VIM. Pennock, requesting that q
marriage license be issued. Alter
swearing the couple as to the geDu-
ineness OF the signature the required
document was forthcoming aud was
followed by their marriage, after
which the newly mated pair wended
their way homeward.
Later IN the day recorder smith
received telegram from the brides
father stating that the paper bear
ing his name was forgery. But we
trust that ere this all has been for
given and the usual paternal bless
ing has followed the plighted troth
OF the runaway lovers.
PARKER R-EGAN:-Nr. Saml Parker
and Miss MaJIie Egan were married
at the residence of the officiating
Justice of the peace, Squire Z. A.
Chapman. in Cockrell township, on
Friday, Sept. 14th.

In writing to renew his subscrip-
ton to the COURIER to April 1895,
W. ID. Warden, a former Triplett
merchant, but who is now farming
in Montana, says: "We have just
finished haying and harvesting our
oats and wheat. Crops of all kinds
are fine in Montana, and our vegeta-
bles can't be beaten. We have just
had rain in the valley and snow on
the mountains. Weather fine and
pleasant and health good"

EultOr COURIER.
DEAR SIR:-Your welI-known disposition to
treat everyone with fairness induces me to
ask sufficient space in your columns to cor
rect an impression which paragraph pub
upon the minds OF your readers. 1 refer to
the article in which it is alleged that 1, with
my associate directors of our public school
who are Republicans, declined to vote for Mr..
Parrish for principal of the colored school,
because. as you allege he is a Democrat
Now, with regard to the election of teach
ers, will state that neither nor my associ-
ate directors have ever inquired into the po-
litical or religious views of an applicant for
a position as teacher, nor have. so far as I
know, the Democratic members of the board
pursued different course.
Besides this, Mr.. Parrish had, prior to the
time when the board proceeded to the elec.
ton of teachers, informed various parties
that he had ceased to be a Democrat, and
was, in fact, a Republican, and intended to
vote the Republican ticket Hence we could
not object to his politics. It is plain that
the cause for our refusing to vote for him
must be sought in a different direction, and
il you will read the remonstranse signed by
eighty-five OF the best colored citizens of our
district, you may get on the righr track, and
see why Mr.. Parrish is not considered fit
person to be placed in charge of Is school
having advanced children of the gentler sex
as pupils,
Very Respectfully Yours,

We publish the above as an act O
simple Justice to Mr.. Randolph, ant
cheerfulIy allow him space in which
to have his "say."
In the first place the COURIER die
not state that the Republican men,
bers of the school board refused tc
vote for Prof. Parrish because hs
was Democrat, but said it was fol
reasons best known to themselves D
In the second place we obtained
from what we consider a reliable
source the information that the mum.
Der OF patrons of the Brunswick col
ored school, who signed the petition
for the reteStion of Parrish, was 141
and those who signed the remon-
STRANGE against his being re-employ.
ed numbered only 60, hence we took
the position that Mr.. Randolph was
not exercising the political sagacity
OF which we believed him capable in
opposing the wishes of such large
majority of thepatrons of the school.
As to whether we are correct in this
position will, perhaps, not be known
until the Brunswick. .colored vote is
cast at the November election. If
Mr.. Randolph has endeavored to
carry out the wishes of a majority OF
the patrons of the Brunswick color
ed school they will vote for him for
representative. But il, on the other
hand, the wishes of the majority
have been ignored Mr.. Randolph will
run behind his party's strength and
will ride on the stern end of the boat
when the Republican craft starts up

Card Of Thanks.

A short time before her death, Mrs.
Samuel Brown expressed wish that
the kind and ever tireless friends who
had done all in th cir power to alleviate
her sufferings should receive assurance
OF her heartfelt thanks. Now, her hu :
band and family wish to acknowledge
the willing aid and comfort SO kindly
afforded in their hour of trouble and
sorrow. The people of Hillsboro have
exhibited true Christian sympathy and
consideration, for which may the God
OF Mercy reward them.

The Gazette is bent on creating and
keeping up false impression concern.
ing Council and the water works ques
ton. 1t asserted last week that an ordi-
nance had been passed refusing to turn
over the $4,000 to the Water Works
Trustees. This was was not the case,
nor had the Council any desire to ham.
per the Trustees or control them in the
use of the money. The Council is merely
arranging to pay the previous overdrafts
on the $4,000. There need be no ap-
prehension that the Council will refuse
the money to the Trustees or seek in
any way to interfere with their full
management of the plant and the funds.
There is only little deliberation as to
the modus operandi of meeting the
debt spoken of. Both Council and
Trustees understand each other. There
is no friction. And it is now probable
the ordinance will pass without the
clause re ferred to. The sensation in.
vented by the Gazette is wholly ground
less.

Why should Judge Hulick be chosen

Doan pulls the strings that make its

selected to do that papers dirty work,
was closeted with the Doans before he
came here to see Davis, and again after
he left. It's a dirty Doan move from A

We have clear proof that the disturb.

trying to raise in this district to the de.
triment of the Republican party is in
spired by Bob Doan and his son AL.
Whether they have willing tools in this
city remains to lie seen. One thing is
certain. 1t is not in the interest Of po.
litical purity that such men as Doan
and his ilk rush into the field. He came
here in the dark to buy the primary,
when he knew that fair vote would re.
suit in his overwhelming defeat. Fail.

resorted to unmanly means to crafty a

An Argument in Kind.

The esteemed Ocala Banner appa-
rently is unable to appreciate sound
democratic doctrine with respect to
finance as interpreted and amplified
in Mr.. Cooper's speech at Pennington
recently. AT some stage of its check
cred career the Banner has imbibed
some queer notions respecting the use
of silver as money, and it cannot bring
itself to understand how changed and
enlarged conditions and long and
thorough practice may entirely upset
many popularly accepted vagaries re-
garding finance. Our contemporary
has evidently been reading altogether
on one side OF this question. That is
not the way to arrive at the truth.
Whatever may be the unbiased opin-
ion Of individuals on the silver ques-
ton, the leading advocates of free sill
yer coinage are not free from preju-
dice. The original supporters and de-
tenders of the national banking sys-
tenn were not entirely impartial. The
best test Is experience. We have seen
that silver legislation must be c;rcum-
scribed by certain limitations. We
dare not 60 beyond them. Let our
contemporary keep up with the finan-
cial and commercial history of the
time. Citizen.

The Linnor We Drink.

Here are few figures for the tenn
perance reform club:
We distilled last year 81 ,346, SS4 gall
Ions of liquor not including 1,430,S55
gallons of brandy, making in all So,
III, 1877 gallons of alcoholic spirits. Ex-
pert bartenders estimate 63 drinks to
the gallon. Therefore there were 81
604 ,062,S ,S91 drinks produced in this
country. A conservative estimate of
how much was imbibed across coun-
ters is about 81 600, 900 gallons of whis-
key, brandy and other distilled spirits,
or in other words we drank 5000, ,000,-
900 glasses of whiskey for which we
paid over the bar 5000, 100000 or $5,-
000,0 900 more than all the annual ap-
preparations of congress combined.
This represents a consumption of 100
glasses of whisky each year for every
man, woman and child between the.
rock-bound Pacific and storm tossed
Atlantic, or counting only the male
adults 500 glasses per week each. OF
beer the figures are equally astound-
ing. The consumption was 81 ,962. .943
barrels; that is l2,7S5, ,169, 200 glasses;
representing an expenditure for this
mode of teutonic hilarity of $f17, ,25S,-
AGO, or about 10 cents for each inhabi-
tant. In the neighborhood of 220
glasses are charged up in this calcula-
tion against each of us as our annual
allowance, therefore if we do not av-
erage our daily glass we may be sure
that our neighbors are getting the
benefit of our abstinence. By esti-
mating this years internal revenue
receipts from spirits on the basis of
last years product with the increased
tax of $1.10 per gallon, the internal
revenue receipts will be $97, ,674, ,905.
