Brother Polling was converted and
joined the United Brethren Church
OF which he was an active member
at the time of his death. He was
class leader of the Pleasant Hill
Society for MANY years and was
esteemed and loved by his class
mates. Brother Polling was man

MURRAY CITY, Oct. 5, 1906
Mr.. Editor please allow us space il
your valuable paper, to answe
what we consider, some of the mos
absurd, ridiculous, prcpostorous
and notorious, falsehoods ever sen
out by any local paper for the pur
pose of deceiveing and misleading
its prejudiced readers. Some un
principled, bigiied, ignoramous, has
taken it upon himself to ridicule
and misrepresent to the genera
public, those among the supporters
of silver, who are endeavoring By
clear and phylantroyshical dis
cussions to enlighten their fellows
In the first place we want to in
form the public of the fact that the
late speech of Mr.. Armstrong de
livered at Jobs was almost if not
an entire failure. At no time dur.
ing his discussion did he receive
the attention of more than one
hundred persons including the
members of his dark Completed
band. In the second place we
want TO make the writer of that
article that came out in the Journal
Gazette few days since swallow
one of his own lies. In one place
he said the citizens of Murray went
in large numbers Saturday even
ing Sept. Goth TO New Pittsburg
showing that they were more will
ing to hear David Armstrong than
Hon. w. M. Fink. In another
place he said :he people of the
whole township flocked in numbers
to Murray to hear Hon. w. M. Fink
and other Supporters Of silver. The
gold bugs of this section of the
country are very much opposed to
the wisdom and boldness of three
kids namely Chas Huskins, Chas
Chatfield and William ii. Haskins
and their ages are respectfully 49,,
%, % years. Our gold friend in
his article abused in a very un-
principled manner Mr.. Chas Has.
kins. Not only did he abuse but
lied on him concerning a discussion
which he Mr.. Haskins had with
Mr.. Dilts of Consol. The writer
said that the said Mr.. Dills argued
with Mr.. Haskins in such a manner
as to shut him up when in the fact
of the matter it was just the other
way, for all that Mr.. Dilts could
say providing 1t was Mr.. Dilts of
whom the writer spoke for Mr..
Dilts is stranger to the writer's,
was that you are too young to talk

Are the Farmers Of Hooking TO Their
nterests.-Grand Meetings.

Interests .-Grand Meetings.
Never before in the history OF
Hooking county have the people
been so thoroughly aroused tC
politics us they are this fall. The
farmer and laborer is alert to listen
to the great issues of the day dis.
cussed and to decide, as almost
unanimous they are deciding, that
they will throw eff the British yoke
of financial depression as did the
fathers in 1776, and re-establish our
independence.
A meeting was called for Satur-
day afternoon at Bloomingville.
Speakers G. V. Wright, A. III. Will
son, f. O. Petit, George Jacoby
and j. B. Rlason and tho Logan
Bryan Silver Quartette were pres
ent. The most sanguine had eX-
pected that there would be present
school house full of people to
listen to the speeches, but when
the hour of 2 O'clock camc the
people came pouring out of the
surrounding hills as if by magic,
and the idea Of the school house
was abandoned and a speakers
stand was erected on the square
and fully 800 men surrounded the
stand when the first speaker,
George Jacoby candidate for com
missioner, was introduced. He
made a short address, and excused
himself very nicely as he and Mr.
Riason were billed for meeting
at Gibisonville in the evening, and
must be starting that way. A. Ii.
Wilson and G. V. Wright followed
with mastery addresses. Re-
publicans present said they never
saw as large crowd in Blooming
vile. Benton will come in this
fall with the largest Democratic
majority in the history ofthe town.
ship. The corps of speakers and
singers left Bloomingville about
four o'clock and drove to Ilesboro
where had assembled about one
hundred voters to hear the issues
of the day discussed in their true
light. Mr.. A. II. Wilson, c. V.
Wright and E. O. Petit addressed
the meeting. The Republicans all
along the line seem to be uncon-
cerned as to the result, some saying
they didn't care how the result is,
and others more bold expressed
their intention disappearing silver.
II is evidently year when there
is lack of enthusiasm on the part
of the Republican party. Most of
the voters in Hooking are poor
men and can't just see how a vote
to help the Wall street money
lender viii help him in the fields
of Hooking county. This is the
cause Of many deserting the Re-
publican party to vote with the free
American policy.
Word from Gibisonville authen-
tically states that a monster meet
ing was held there Saturday even
ing George Jacoby and j. b. Riason
addressing the meeting. Mr.. Jaco-
by is more than pleased with the
out look of the western part of the
county since his tour. The COM
mittee have arranged for a meeting
every night this campaign some
place in the county, and the result
VIII be an overwhelming victory
for the Democratic ticket.

Students Do Not Permit Bryan to Speak
Mt Now Haven-An Indiana Case.
1t is noteworthy that Mr.. Bryan has
been permitted to speak wherever he
desired in all this country except in New
Haven, and on the famous campus OF
Yale college. Fifteen thousand people
assembled there the other day to hear
him, but 500 Yale students disposed
themselves in the crowd and created SO
much noise and caused such disturb.
nnce that it was impossible for him to
proceed and the attempt was aban-
doned. The students indulged in cheers
for Mckinley, college yells, and, the
dispatches say, rendered the "Frog
Chorus from Aristophanes."
If u Mckinley meeting had been thus
broken up In tho west the republican
press would have denounced it unspar-
irgly as an outburst of anarchy. As it
is, they apologize for 1t and excuse it
on the ground of "boyish exuberance." )"
There has been no lack, however, OF un-
spnring criticism. The spirit OF de
cency and fair play all over the country
has denounced the outrage in unspar-
irg terms.
A few days later the students of Wa
bash college at Charlottesville, Ind, un-
dertook to render the Frog Chorus
from Aristophanes" on u somewhat sim
liar occasion. Col. Patterson was
speaking there, and a crowd of these
students desiring TO emulate Yale un-
dertook to break up the meeting. But
they had hardly get their, ,"chorus" well
under way when squad of well-mus-
cled farmer boys, who had come to the
speaking, attacked and literully wiped
up the earth with them. They pun
meled some of them within an inch of
their lives, while others took refuge in
private residences. II Is useless to say
the meeting proceeded without inter
ruption. And wherever young nnarch-

"beef and" and the other two boiled
eggs. When the eggs were placed before
the one who ordered them, he said to his
companion, "Why, those are Jersey
eggs.
"How do you know they are Jersey
eggs? They might have been laid in
Pennsylvania or Kentucky for all you
know"
"Well, 1 guess not Those eggs came
from Jersey, and know it"
To prove it the proprietor was called
into the discussion, and when asked he
said The eggs were Jersey eggs.
Then the egg eater explained: "Over
in Jersey the farmers, or some Of them
at least, use board with holes, large
and small, bored in it. All eggs that
will GO through the small holes are sent
to market, and those which will only &c
