and the precious metal jingled IN the pock-
cts of Republicans. Democrats and Popo-
Gratis. This evening was devoted TO fire
works. The city was gayly decorated. and
there was universal rejoiclng. All the citi-
zens of Montgomery county know Mr..

ton was held. Speeches were made by

corning the confidence among business men

rect principles have triumphed and the cleo
ton of Mckinley means return to pros
perity and confidence. Do not let Us forget
TO thank the sound-money Democrats for
their valuable assistance. their great lead
ers standing for honor and sound money.
The dream OF prosperity is now realized.
The shops have opened, the mills have
started and employment for the laboring
man has begun. The grand old Republican
party has a history from the war in 1861
to 1892. when it reached the climax OF its
prosperity under that great man of the
Nation, General Harrison. Let me say In
conclusion that the man you have selected
as President has been tried upon the field
of battle and in the councils of the Nation
as a soldier and a statesman, and stands
for honor and prosperity"
Gen. Lew Wallace spoke next, and his
speech was full of patriotism. prosperity
and sound-money talk. He took occasion

reached at $3.50 O'Clock, and the session
was extended until nearly Il, in order TO
handle the many humorous amendments,
which were offered aud to allow the wits

taken, and the speaker had threatened 70

Mr.. McCook was called upon for a state

though the House laughed hilariously over
the subject. One member asked Mr.. Nc
Cook if the penalty for Staying the possum
would alta Oh if the killing should be done
while the possum was in the act of prey
ing upon chickens. He promptly replied
in a most serious manner that it would
not. as that would be in self defense.
This set the House in a roar. He referred
to the possum as an agricultural product.
Numerous laughabie amendments were
offered and an brought to vote. One
put coons on the same footing.
y
coored member, made a speech against
the bin, the first time he has had the floor
during the session. His efforts while in
tended to be i'm earnest, were laughable to
the members as the possum bill itself, and
it was all that Speaker jenkins could do
to keep any semblance of order.

for Mr. Foster should be thrown out which
would give Mr.. Killingsworth a majority
of two and seat him. The reports will
be made the subject of a special order next
Tuesday. when the House will have
lively row over the matter.

Saturday half legal holiday, was passed
