There was at good turn out of voters who exhibited consilerable interest in the approaching primary election. NIr. V. S. .1ones, President of the (1ub and thl) Dem ocratic war horse of Pumiipki nIown, introdu ced the speakers in his usual felicitous manner, frequently geiting off good jokee on the candidales that created roars of laughter from the audience. Mr. Jcnes is one of our most successful and progressive farmers and takes an active interest. in tlie material and educational dv elopenit o' fle cun try as8 well its t he polit ical issues of the day, though hie has niever been an nspiranft to any oflice. In opening the meting, NI r. .lones saijd suibst antially: ''1 live in thei iiountainsi and know t he ways of the mnoun tauins. Much was said about the stock law ini the mountains wvhcn it was first passeit but. opposition to it has about died out and nto Democrat will desert his party on thatt account. It. is a good law. I endorse it. I also believe in the liegistration law; it was a constitutionnl requiiremient and I be lieve the Legislature did right in passinig it ." lie spoke oft the corrupt ion of' thle lad ical panrty-t old how they stole the scho I money anid contrasted thle managemnent ot aftfairs thlen and. now -"'Now thle school money wias honestly3 collected andii hionestly3 aipplied to its legit iate purpolises."'

Thle caindidat es wer'e Ihen cintmiroduIcedl, all beving present, we believe, except Mr'. J. I. Clyde, candidat e for Countyi Autdi tor, who has no opposition, but wa's too busily enga ged in his oflice to at :end, and Ni r. J . it.

Next was candidates for County Commnissiner, some of whomi declined to) speak. All t he 01thers were very brief', :nerely announcing their candidacy, promising to do the best t hey could, if elected.

Hre has very 8 much mollified since hie first started out,w and If lhe continues to go around with thed Democrats, we should not Pe surprised if ii they convert and make a good D~emocrat out a of him before they get around, or cause :0 him to give up his candidacy in disgust. 1Mr. W. T. Field and Col. RI. E. Bowen, candidates for the Senat e, were next itntro duced, who paid their compliments to Mr. Looper in a courteous but very unmistakau ble way. At the conclusion of the speech of Col.

We did not see or smell a rop of whiskey on the hill, nor did we te0 My one the least partiole under its influ ace, Conscquently everything passed off a1 uietly and pleasantly. The Datmocracy of C unipkintown, and in fact of the whole ount'y are abolst as solid as they were in el 376, and will given good account of them, T ,Ives in Noveuber next. EASTATOE. i The candidates met the people of Easta. C e on last Saturday. There was a tolera. y good turnout, and everything passed r pleasantly and quietly. The candidates lOke in the same order as at Pumpkin. wn, and pursed abodt the satire line of gulent. There is some little dissatisfac u11 in this township about the stock law, it it, does not amoiLut to anything serious, Ailiically. They nre making arrangements adapt themselves to the law, and we ave no doubt that in less than two years on now they will be delighted with it. tid will be ni.king more tinoniey out of it y stock raisiiig than any other section of lie State.
