Belle Grove Square Mass Meeting.

The great county mass-meet1ng at Belle
Grove Square, in this city, last Monday, was
a fiat failure, so far as the attendance was con-
cerned. A part of the audience was made up
of ladies and Democrats and the Carroll
County Band, and even some Of the Repubh-
cans present were inclined to the belief that
free coinage of gold and silver would relieve
the country from the present depression.
The whole audience did not number more
than $50 persons. Charles I. Reifsnider
called the meeting TO order, and proposed DIR.
Jacob J. Weaver, of Uniontown, for President,
with vice-presdent for each election dis
trict, and three secretaries. DR.. Weaver
made short address in accepting and made
some extravagant claims as to the result IN
November. one being his belief that William
B. Baker would be elected. He also spoke
of MI, Bakers distinguished services in the
House of Representatives. Just what those
services were he did not state, and many peo-
pie wondered what they we're.
Mr.. Baker was the next speaker, and it was
a question, during the first part of his re-
marks, whether he was advertising the tact
that he was a Gamer or discussing the financial
issue Upon this subject he said he regretted
his inability to present the question properly,
and he was not long in demonstrating that he
did not understand it at all. He brought in
something about the condition of Mexico, the
stock argument of the Gold Bugs. If the peo
Pile who heard Mr., Baker will turn to the first
page of this issue they can learp some facts
and see how ridiculous was Mr.. Bakers COM
parison of Mexico to the United States.
Hon John Dalzeli, Of Piitsburg. Pa, fol
lowed Mr. Baker.

Frederick TO Get the Annual Meeting.

The location committee Of the German
Baptist Church; at 9 meeting hold at the resi-
danee of Elder Charles ID. nonsaoll, near this
city, on Wednesday last, agreed upon Fred
eriek City US die place for the annual meeting
for 1897. There are various reasons assigned
why Westminster was not selected, as il offered
superior advantages, but all are mere specu-
lalion.
The selection of Frederick meets with an
almost general disapproval among the mem
beers of the church throughout Carroll, and
when it is considered that more than three
fourihs of the membership in the Eastern
District are in this county the indignation is
not surprising.
