THE BURET IU1IML
We have seldom attended a
political meeting that afforded
us more reolr unadulterated
pleasure than the meeting at
Blaney on Saturday. In the
first place, we were among
friends who had stood to our
back when we cherished tjie idle
hopo that we would bo selected
to do strenuous work for the
people (not The People) as an
office-holder. Second, because
we were with a large number of
people who were entirely con
vinced that The People was do
ing them good, and third, be
cause we had the pleasure of
listening to some of the finest
exhibitions of oratory that ever
charmed find deafened the ear of
a listening multitude.
Judge C. C. Bowen, the genial
chairman first presented the can
didates for the Legislature,
Messrs. Smith and Richards.
These gentlemen having no op
position. did not cousume more
than one half or two-thirds of the
hour each, allotted to them.
Both addresses were splendidly
rendered, and were replete with
information on subjects vitally
affecting the interests of all*
Our reporter (ourself) took co
pious notes of the remarks of
Mr. Richards, and will perhaps
give them to our readers next
week in the shape of a would be
editorial.
Messrs. Geo. P. Logan and S.
McG. Simkins, candidates for
Solicitor, followed the Legisla
tors, and each made a capital
talk. The absence of the other
three candidates for Solicitor,
was regretted as all of them ft re
star orators. As there was no
deficit showing m that line how
ever, the audience was kept ful
ly occupied for* the next two
hours iu giving undivided at
tention to the enthralling elo
quence of Messrs. G. W. Mosely
und Joel Hough, candidates for
Clerk of Cottrt; Sowell and
Peurce, Supervisors; Haile, Wil
liams, Trantham and Huckabee,
Sheriffs; McCaskill and Hough
(D. K.), Treasurers; Rabon,
Cioodale and Russell, Auditors;
Watts and Turner, Supt. of Eld.;
and Messrs Williams and Pin
ley, candidates for Congress.
The remarks of the two latter
were given close attention, they
being frequently interspersed
with cheers for Williams and
Pinley, the same rhrcrist not ap
pearing to care a snap which he
cheered for.
The meeting was closed by
one of the grandest displays of
oratory ever hoard or delivered
from or upon any stump. This
masterpiece was delivered by
our candidate for Coroner, the
?Lon> Daniel Peter Oustis'Mur
chison, who for many minutes
made his hearers forget the
cravings of the inner man, in
the feast of reason and llow of
soul, provider! through his feast
of ideas and llow of words.
As one good thing at Blaney
however, is usually followed by
another, the audience at last,
more or loss reluctently, with
drew them solves from the fas
cinations of the stump aud liied
themselved to the ranch of Ed.
Flaherty, where they wore treat
ed to the best barbequed dinner
that it has ever been the pleas
ure of your scribe to assist in
putting out of sight.
Taken all in all, the Blaney
meeting was one of the best that
wo have ever had the pleasure J
of participating in.
Wo have heard that that at
Ration's Cross Roads of the da.y
before was equally good, which
is not surprising as we know
those folks too, but we were un
able to attend the Rabon meet
ing. Better luck for us in that
respect next time.

Saturday vu moist and Tory

His spirits were considerably
lightened howeyer when bis
wife put in the wagon a couple
of chickens, and a few eggs, for
he knew that they wOuld bring
the cash, and he had the confi
dence which experience alone
tenches that he could exchange
enough lien corn to pay for the
homespun and thread his old
lady Vanted to quiet her sus
picions that "dem pullet an' aig

when he and Sam met, he was

He was considerably taken
