Special to the Register
Fairmont, w. Va, October 31-The
campaign in this county closed to-day
with meetings by both the free silver
and god standard forces. The free sill
yer forces met in Boothsville, and join
ed like forces from Harrison and Tay-
Tor counties, and held a grand barbecue,
being addressed by Fred T. Martin, Of
Fairm0n, and Hon. Lewis S. Newman,
of Moundsyille, candidate for the State
Senate.
Two oxen, Weighing / 100 and 500
pounds respectively fed the large crowd
after which they gathered in the pub
lie square near the school house, where
the addresses were made. J. VI. Harr
acted as chairman of the meeting, and
introduced Mr.. Martin as the first
SPEAKER. and he carried his hearers into
the greatest realms of enthusiasm by
his humor and glorious predictions OF
The outcome of this battle between the
people and the mOneyel classes. Mr..
Newman followed and after deyoting a
few words to the tariff, went for the
gold standard with a vehemence. He
also took up the national bank question
and gave IL a fair discussion.
AT Fairmont the crowd equalled the
great Wilson demonstration held here
two years ago. and from a platform
erected on Main street Hon. W. B.
Hooker. of New York, and 4. G. Dayton,
candidate for Congress, spoke.
Before the meeting monster parade,
consisting Of severa. bans, two uni
yormed marching cubs and 500 horse
men from Union district, participating.
Enthusiasm at this meeting reached
very high pitch, but qu.e.ed down
slightly about noon, as al. the beer IN

until the four o'clock train
Both meetings were composed largely
of farmers. and judging from the large
crowds at both places, every farmer
and labOrer in this section must nave
laid aside his work for a hoId2y. Al
Rocr bsviye the numerous miners IN TINS
section were vel represented, pIoml-
nentlv among them being ID. VI. HaIE

Event of the Season.

The subscription sale of seats for
Francis Jones' engagement Sept. 10Th
proved satisfactory, and the exquisite
operatic comedy, elm Old Madrid, "
will be seen on that date. AS the
title indicates, the scene of the piece
is laid in Spain and the costumes and
scenery are Spanish in color and de-
sign. The story tells of a young man
who pulls the wool over his uncle's
eyes and gets him to assist in his
(the nephew's) elopement with the old
mans daughter, without his knowing
who she is, and furnishes a decidedly
clever plot, out of which the author
has conceived a remarkably funny and
novel comedy. The operate select
ions introduced are the best songs and
duets from the latest operas without
the chorus. The attraction was one
of the big hits of last season. Seats
will be placed on sale Monday at usual
prices, so and 35 cents.
