BARTS'S ELECTION.

Preparing for Big Demonstrntion-It
Will be n Big Success Other Notes.-The
Chrysanthemum Show
Now that it is decided to have an
outdoor demonstration to celebrate the
recent glorious victory every patriotic
citizen in town should lend helping
hand and make the attempt one of the
biggest affairs the old town has ever
witnessed. The committee appointed to
take charge of the celebration is an
able one, and will not cease it's labors
until success is assured There are
many ways in which the merchants
can assist the committee in their la
| bors, one of which is to make it a
point to turn out in line with their de-
livery wagons decorated and help swell
the number. Everyone who owns a
team, especially big team should see
that it is trimmed up and filled with
enthusiastic young, or even old folks,
| to help make show and noise. If
| everybody who truly rejoices over the
victory for sound money and good gov
eminent only takes a hand the affair is
bound to be a grand success Arrange
ments will be made to have the factory
gongs and whistles sounded during the
parade, and there will be other nipple
ments in use to help along the racket.
A monster bonfire on the peak of Mt
Tom would be good idea, and would
show the neighboring towns that old
| Wallingford was having a celebration
| such as was never seen here before.
