ideal. Every man present was capable
Of grasping the speakers meanin and
carrying his spirit and his arguments out
for dissemination among the people.
Nine-ienths of those present showed by
the utteranees which they applauded
that they were Democrats.
There were a great many clergyrnen
Of all denominations in the audience. The
number of Roman Catholic priests was
especially noticeable. The number Of
ladies. though considerable for such an
occasion, did not affect the voting weight
of the gathering. There were. perhaps.
500 of them altogether in a total Of 1900

Fully ten thousand people were gath

MOUNT HOLLY, Aug. 1s. 1sss-A MEM
Der OF the state Boar of Health has been
here making an inspection of the drink
ing water, which has been unfit for use
fer several weeks. It was his opinion that
its bad odor and taste was due to lew wa
ter in the creek.
He said that the water of all
towns getting o supply from
streams originating in cedar swamp
land smells and tastes like the water in
this city. Filtration does net remedy the
evil, he said, but that system was recon-
nnended to be used when cold weather sets
in, and it will probably be adopted. The
water at Lakewood, which iss pure as
crystal, is similarly affected.
