ever seen was witnessed last night by
tho people OF this community in honor
OF the Republican ticket in this dis
trict. The town was beautifully decor
ated with cotored ligh "a and all houses
gaily decked with flags. The display
OF fireworks was simply grand. The
procession, headed by the two local
bands aud the Helvetia band, started at
7 p. M, and after marching around and
through the town, being hailed at every
step with enthusiastic shouts from
Democrats as we'll as Republicans. It
wendell its way to the opera house,
whero the crowd was ably addressed by
Hon. @. P. Dorr. OF Addison, and Hon.
will Outright. OF Buckhannon. Stand
