holding nightly meetings at their tent on
Tenth street, and have been greeted by
we'll behaved audiences. They parade the
streets every evening and hold short SER
vices at the court house. The music is
made by a drum and cornet accompanied
by singing. All went well until Tuesday
night, when Joseph Bauerle, Who was
under the influence of liquor, concluded to
assist the drummer. He seized one OF the
sticks and began to make Rome howl
when the army seized him and pushed
him bach to the sidewalk. Then Bauerle
remembered that he he'd fists that could
pound as we'll as a drum stick and he
struck the leader and used p~rofane lam
guage at the same time. Then the police

ance. ]. Q. ~Plattenburg, j. ]. Fulkerson,
M. ". L. McClelland and Chas. r. Greasy
are democrats and politicians of Influence.
PIattenburg and Greasy are much similar
in political policies. Both are conserva-
tive politicians, who take nothing for
granted. They concede nothing to the
enemy in a political battle. They are
princes in a defensive political fight. On
the other hand, Fulkersou and McClel-
land are aggressive fighters. They never
give up in a political bout, but plunge
into the heat of the fray with all their
might. Altogether, the four men COM
bine the best there is of good politics, and
advice and work will tell in the
campaign which is upon US. II
