EDITOR SENTINEL: This city is solid

Popocrats IN the surrounding country
One Of them had dream. He dreamed
that he died and went to heaven. When
he got t. the gates of heaven ST. Peter
asked him where he was from and be
told him that he was from Missouri. st.
Peter SAID: What political party did
you belong to down thare?" He said:
Il beionge! to the Popocrats," and then
ST. Peter replied: "You cannot enter
here for it is written that nothing uu-
clean can enter the kingdom OF heaven.
You might get in hell, but it will be- l6
to II you do" So he went to hell, and
the Gevil met him at the door and asked
him where he was from. He told him
he came from Missouri. Tho devil said:
"What political party did You belong
to-" He said: II was Popecrat," and
the devil told him that he could not
enter his place of abode, and the Popo-
crat said: 1T is near night; won't you
keep me over nigtt?" The devil an
swered: NO, for if were to take you
in for the night you would before morn

but a short distance when the devil
called HIM back aud told him that he
would lend HIM few barrels of
brlmstone and he could set up n hell Of
his own for the accommodation of the
rest OF the Popucrats, for it is very likely
that after the election he will have
plenty OF COMPANY from his party, for
they are mostly composed of wind and

is not waning in MInton township. We
have Mckinley club OF 13 members.
Our club was honored with II visit from
our old friends, Mr.. C.. c. Moore and
Hon. II. T.. Alkire, of Oregon MIR.
Moore delivered very pleasant address
t. his many friends As this was his
former home and where he spent large
portion of his youth, his visit was en-
joyed by all. Hon. II. L. Alkire was the
speaker of the evening. When he arose
every seat in the house was filled and
standing room was at a premium. His
theme was sound finance, protection
and good government, and held the in
terest of the audience for over two
hours. He delved into history and
proved that every revu!sIOn OF prosperi-
ty was due to Democratic legislation.
He cited us to the panics OF 1916, 1881,
1857 and 1860 and 1893, and reasoned
from cause to effect and showed con
clusively that every revulsion had been
brought about by free trade, and that
We had enjoyed the greatest degree OF
prosperity when we had a high protect
i've tariff; that during each period OF a
high protective tariff our American
manufacturing Institutions were in full
blast. No idle men, no tramps, no CoXey
armies travelling oyer the country. In
fact, on the contrary, every man, WOMAN
and child had employment. The poor
and the wage earners we're happy and

house for the purpose of transacting
business and the adoption OF the NY
laws. The chairman, Mr.. Llewellyn,
called the house to order. and the en-
thusiast,c audience was entertained by
short and able addresses from the fol-
lowing speakers: Messrs. Proud, Pierce,
Laughlin, Edwards, Knowles and O'Fal
lon. Messrs. Knowles and O'Fallon dis
cussed the issues of the day, showing to
any one (wishing to understand the
hazardous movement that IS now being
agitated by shallow politicians as Bryan |
and Aunt Moliie Lease. There was a |
question asked that yet remains unan-
swered. l think the speaker misunder- |
