The Democratic county campaign
for 1896 was formally opened at Union
School House Monday evening. A
large crowd Of representative resi-
dents OF that district was in attend
ance, and, of course, there were
plenty of candidates. At s O'Clock
the meeting was called to order bv
Hon. Thos. A. Mcintyre, who presid-
ed temporarily until MIR. Richard
Byrns was unanimously elected chair
man of the meeting. In a neat speech
Mr.. Byrns announced the object of
the meeting and Il motion was then
made by Mr.. Mcintyre that each can
didate be allowed fifteen minutes in
which to make n speech. This mo-
ton was carried and it was decided to
call the candidates in the order in
which their names are printed in the
announcement column of the weekly
LEDGER, commencing at the top.
Each speaker was listened to intently
and frequent and prolonged applause
' N"S vi II cSCIluS.
Hon. Thos. A. Mcintyre, the pres
emf member of the Legislature from
this county and n candidate for re-
election, was the first one in order.
Mr.. Mcintyre mentioned the fact that
ne had enjoyed the honor of opening
the campaign in 1894 and was now to
open that of 1896. He said that the
Democratic party was in a periIous
condition, caused mainly by internal
strife and strength wasted in fighting
one another, and urged the people to
come out as a unit and vote. He
stated that he wanted to go back to
the Legislature because he had serv.
ed in the only Republican Legislature
that had served in the State for years
and he wanted a chance to represent
the people of Audrain County in &
Democratic Legislature, such as he
thought the next one would be.
"The last legislature" said he
twas Mr.. Filley's own. When Mr.
Fllley like a circus ringmaster, popped
the whip the monkey jumped. There
were more laws made and killed il
the committee rooms than in th'
House"
He also said that he had vote
against appropriating such large sum
of money for the maintenance of tn
State militia and for the fish commits
sion. After speaking about the grow
ing criminal costs of the State, an
saying that he would vote for an
measure which would tend to max
these less, he closed.

eral Wheaton made his Arizona cam paien in a private car, he did not kill many redskins himself, but no doubt the advice he gave will prove most valuable. The News would suggest that the soldiers be armed with bottles of whisky instead of guns in the next campaign, and that when they get the willy hostiles down to talk, they pro pose a drinking match between the renegades and some well seasoned of ficers of the army. If this could be brought about the destruction of the Kid. old Massoi and the rest of the gang would be accomplished without thel oss of man and the white wings of peace would again hover over this land of promise and uncertainty.

Ever Notice

That some men have the knack of keeping up
appearances better than others! One will
always seem to get along in the world with
more ease, and wear better Clothes than the
other There really isn't any reason for this
difference. Every man has the same advan-
tages. One simply does his buying better
than the other.
