these men. Before. concluding, the
speaker said that he would send every
voter copy of the semi-monthly pay
law before election day, and said that
they could see for themselves its bene.
hts. He stated that the empoye does
not have to have this law enforced, as
has been claimed by a paper in this dis
trict, but that such duty is made the
work of the factory inspector. Mr..
Hines speech was the principal one of
the evening, as far as local matters
went, and at its conclusion he was given
considerable applause.
Peter A. O'Boyle, the candidate for
district attorney, was the next speaker,
and in his usual eloquent style gave his
opinions upon the results caused by the
legislation of the Republican party for
the past thirty years. He traced the
rise of the milionaires of the country
and showed how they haye been aided
with protective tariffs to become what
they are today, menace to the nation.
He said their power must be broken or
they will eventually control the Ameri-
can people so efTectually that our institu-
tions and liberty will be nothing more
than a mockery. He took Messrs.
Carnegia and Wanamaker as EXAMPLES
of what Republican legislation has
fostered and nourished, and his words
of denunciation which followed his
references to their contributions to the
Republican corruption fund were very
bitter. Great applause followed every
mention of the names of Jefferson,
jackson and Cleveland, and his final
appeal to the Democrats of Freeland to
stand again by the party that has with
stood the struggles of more than 100
years was framed in language most
beautiful
Mr.. O'Boyle concluded with interest
ing descriptions of the work in the offices
to which his ellow-candidates aspire,
and his comparison of the nominees on
both tickets, from top to bottom, left i'm
pressions in the minds of his hearers
that were decidedly in favor of the
Democratic candidates.
John II. Rice. candidate for clerk of
courts, was next introduced by Chair
man Rutter, and he was rendered quite
an ovation. Mr.. Rice had not much to
say, but related briefly how he came to
be a candidate, through the loss of his
position by standing out with his rail-
road brethren during the late Valley
strike. He asked for the support of
every workingman. Jacob Schappert
candidate for prothonotary, followed
with few remarks, promising to attend
to the duties of his office conscientiously
and faithfully, if elected.
The last speaker was our townsman,
D. j. Mccarthy, who was called upon
without notice but responded with
good impromptu address, touching upon
national, state and local issues, and con-
cluding with an appeal for support on
behalf of Mr.. McNelis, who, he said,
would live up to every promise he may
make in this campaign. The meeting
then adjourned with three cheers
for the ticket.

tanned other injuries. His little daugh-
ter, who was in the wagon with him,

In GOOD CONDITION.
The Watauga Bank Not Effected by
the Recent Failure.

1t is an i'll wind that blows no good.
The suspension of the First National
Bank has served to strengthen theWa-
auga Bank rather than weaken it as
feared by some In an interview with
George D. Taylor one of the directors
and largest stockholders of the insti-
tuition, The COMET learned that the
bank was in splendid condition and
ready for any emergency, though no
trouble was anticipated from the de-
positors in the nature OF a run"
With few exceptions the stock of
this hank is held by men of known
wealth and integrity and although
not responsible under the law to de-
positors, they have displayed will
ingness to become SO by personally
endorsing certificate of deposit that
is highly commendable.

Adjuster Lynch will be here this week
to LOOK the ground over and assist,
II possible, in re-establishing the bank
The gentlemen were assured by the
Comptroller that everything possible
in the purview of the law would be
done to bring about this result as
1t was the policy of the government
to build up and not destroy the
banks OF the country. At this time
there are many reasons for believing
the matters will be Strengthened out
and new bank established in a
short time. Such result i, greatly

Miss Jennie Lee Dead.

Mrs. Sam Boring received yesterday
the sad news Of the death of her sister,
Miss Jennie Lee, OF Russell county,
Va.
Many of our people remember that
Miss Lee spent several weeks here
with her sister last summer. Only a
few months ago, she was full OF life
and as CHEEKY as a sunbeam. Last
Friday she went over to neighbor't
home just a few yards away from
her own and dropped dead while
there.
No time to say good bye-no fna
words were said. But she needed
to say none. Her beautiful
life OF tenderest devotion to other
is recorded forever in the heart O
God and in the hearts of those sh
loved.
