take place after the speaking. As a
consequence a number of people were
deluded into coming in from the
surrounding country TO hear them
and enjoy the festivities Of the
evening. Extensive preparations were
anticipated but not made; fire works
that would not work were on hand, and
a number Of flags that never fail to
please the eye were used for decorative
purposes. The local Republican leader
here hied himself TO the train 10 meet
the noted speakers of the day, but they
failed to put in an appearance and all
parties were sOrely dlspleased. VIM.
Outright brother of the merchant here
and a student of the Morgantown Uni
versity. came upon the train and was
persuaded into dishing out TO the as
sembed audience, which was very
creditable one, being composed OF Demo
Gratis and Republicans about equally
quantity Of college oratory. After this
the circus of the evening took place.
Renegade c. P. Dorr, of Webster coun-
", who came to Pickens, no doubt, 10
distribute the necessary amount or El-
kins' Doodle 10 corrupt the ballot, was
called upon TO give a talk by young
and inexperienced would-be politician
who was not familiar with the character
OF his man. Dorr began by
asserting positively that every
Democratic speaker who addressed
an audience was liar, ana
stated that when he was a follower OF
the Democratic party that he had lied
TO the people and had tried to fool them
into voting the Democratic ticket. The
concensus of opinion here to-day Is that
he is still liar, villifer, trickster and a
dishouor TO any party. He began
TRADE against Senator Camden, and un-
derlook to break down the good feeling
OF our citizens for the Senator who, by
his enterprising spirit, has caused a
bowling wilderness to be transformed
into busting little town OF 400 souls.
In this he was unsuccessful. This
traitor DORIS business methods are too
well known to this community for any
remarks that be can make TO have any
effect, and all intelligent and free thing
ers OF both parties are dlsgusted with
his speech, and one OF the most promi-
nent German Republicans, who together
with his two sons came a distance Of
six miles, was so much displeased that he
aud his sons left for home notwithstand-
ing the endsavors OF number Of lead
ers to hold him here. In short, Dorr
made an ass of himself The speaking
vas failure, out the dance was a sue
cess.
