Last Saturday week. at A. B. Hall, Flat City, Major J. F. A. Strong ad- dressed a representative gathering of creek residents on the issues of the day. Major Strong has just returned from the Outside, where he was :. delegate to tho Democratic national convention at Baltimore, and on that account his address was listened to with particular interest.
 Major Strong drew a roseato picture of the prospects otthe Democratic party at the forthcoming elections, assuring his hearers that not only would the house of representatives and the senate both be overwhelmingly Democrats, but that Governor Woodrow Wilson wo uld he elected to the Presidency without tle question of doubt
 Major Suang believes that the su- premacy ofthe Democratic party in the councils of the I ttion means tha begin ming of a new ega for the people Of the United States, and tha complete restoration to the people of those rights, privileges and immuailies which are guaranteed under the constitution.
 The Democratic party today, says Major Strong, is purged of the domi- nation of Wall sreet-of Ryan, Murphy and Belmont, which had brought the party into di@reputc, and tie days of special privilege and spoliatton of the people have passed, and the power of the bosses has gone never to return.
