(Northern Leader, Fort Fairfield, }

(Northern Leader, Fort Fairfeld,)
We are greatly amused by an article
which appears in the Maine Democrat
of August 9th, headed 'sSilver on the
GAIN" The writer begins by saying
that Free coinage bids fair to run ike
Wlldtfe over Aroostook during the CAM
paign." Then he goes on to name the
recruits to the free silver party In his
town. He gives the name of DR.. A. u.
Sawyer as recruit from theHRepubl1can
ranks. This Is probablystrue; but when.he
counts MIR. e. W. Pond among the re-
oruits he is reckoning without his host.
Mr.. Pond Is looking for tho man who
has slandered him In this manner. He
is, as he ever has been q staunoh Repub-
lioan, and a sound money man. He does
not feel very we'll over this gossip, which
was entirely unauthorized. This scrib-
bier of untruths alsossays that DR.. sSaw..
yer has for some time been chairman OF
the Republican town committee, which
is not true. We cannot remember thai
he was ever Oh the town committee; he
certainly never was Chairman. Inc
other gentlemen referred to are all Demo-
Gratis, with one exception-Mr. 9. W.
Johnston, who has for so many years
been Prohibitionist. Now, the truth is
that there are but two men in this town
who are known to have forsaken the
Republican cause OF protection and
sound money forathat of free trade sand
ohsap money, while there are scores OF
men who have formerly acted with the
Democrats who will this year Fvote the
Republican ticket. We have Mckinley
club in this town numbering three hun
dred and are all pledged to work for the
successes of the ticket. Oh no, free COIN
age isn't in there. only among o small
portion Of the Democratic party.
There was very enthusiastic meeting
Of Augusta Republicans, Monday even
ing, in the common council rooms in city
hall for the formation of Mckinley
and Hobart Club. The meeting was for
business. AT promptly z. 80 O'Clock Byron
Boyd as chairman called the gathering to
order. A committee was appointed to re-
port list Of officers and by laws which
was as follows: Hon. John W. Chase of
Ward 1 /; Jugde Andrews of Ward Q; James
E. Kingsley of Ward 3 Stephen W. Miller
of Ward 4; w. II. Allen of Ward g.;
Chas l.. Marston of Word 6; B. D. Saw
age of Ward Z.
1t is now thought that William J.
Bryan, Democratic candidate for presi-
dent, If he speaks at all in Mains, will
speak in Bangor OH the afternoon OF
Thursday, Aug. 20. and on Etna camp
ground on the evening of that day. AS
now arranged, he will speak in Presque
Isle on the afternoon of Friday, Aug. 81.
in Houlton on the evening of that day
and at Lake Maranacook, Winthrop, on
the afternoon of Saturday, Aug. 90. The
Bangor speech Will be the first in reg
ular course of political addresses, which
the Democratic candidate will deliver,
traversing tine country from east to west.
1t is proposed to have great illumina-
ton of Etna Damp ground on the occasion
of his address there and arrangements
will be made for seating thousands Of
people.
