CROSS KEYS MEETING. (Continued From I'age 5. t?<-r, lie also was in tin* legislature | for two years, and I have never heard him say one word as to what he ever did or tried to do," concluded Frowning amid cheers that fairly shook the house. Browning reeeived some Itcailtifnl boUqUets. Chairman < Iregory then introduced T. 11. Core saying that this, candidate would now tell some an-* <<edotcs and make the people laugh. , st l'KKINTEMiKVr <>K KIMVATMN. T. II. (lore always tells the, other candidates to stop electioneering and let the people listen to him. In loud and ringing voice lie again preached the doctrine of rotation. Says he can't get Fant to tell how long la* has had that ofliew. and believes noltod.v remembers when he went in. "I'm going to run Kant out" said lie. (Voice) "Nothing like keeping in good heart." Says Fant is like "William-A-Trimble-Toe," for "when lie washes his too at the public well on the "2sth, lie will go hack and tind his otlice gone." (Mr. Kant i yielded 5 minutes of his time to tlore.) Resuming .Mr. (tore told that the frogs were croaking "the 2-Sth," "tin; 2*th," "he's had it l??ng enough," "lie's hatl it long enough." (Cheers for Kant.) M. L. LeMaster presented his | claims, paying tribute to Kant's! work, hut saying that the cireinnstances were I tetter for Kant's work ! than forjhis own work twelve years ago. D. Ib Kant arose and was cheered. Said he had been in ofliee 10 years. Told his record j and asked the people to pass judgment on it. y AtniroH. J. D. Epps told how he was tin- . like the Irishman who was once in trouble and went to the Lord and said: "Lord, I never have asked you f<>r anything before, but if you will help me out of this scrape, I'll * - l / .. promise never u> msk you ior anything again/' for he has been a candidate l>efore. (Cheers for Kpps.) L. \V. Smith received cheers after his speech. i; Messrs. T. C. Jolly, M. S. Fan- ' cett and S. S. Farrar presented their claims. J. B. Lancaster was cheered. Mr. Baltics yielded his time. SITKUVISOH. J. A. Betsill was at home and spoke brielly. T. J. Betenbaugh paid tribute to | Betsill, his opponent. He made Jiis usual speech, referring to his j circular and denying some of Lee's; charges. M. B. Lee read the circular lettor which he considers a rejection on himself. Denies that our main ' crossings are wellbridged. Lee says he will preach truth if the heavens all. (Voice.)"Wedon't know whether you'll do it or not." This was a rejoinder to Lee's statement that he i would improve the roads and bridges, lie replied that if there was any money in the treasury i ii? ii siiu?\ iwviii iviiciv nv; vi uu. CORONER. .T. \V. Meng and S. K. Humphries introduced themselves. MAOIST RATE. Candidates for township magistrate, J. W. Gore, J. It. I>avis, J. M. I ten net, wen* called for and (tore made a -liort speech. (IIItltS MKKTIXCi. About three hundred people, many ladies among them, heard the candidates at Gihl.s, Tuesday. There were no special features .if the day except the tilt between Mr. Fant and < lore. (l >re ha- said that Fant declared him (Gore) competent to till the oiliee of -upi rintendent of education. This Fant denied having said. Hamilton furnishes -ome variance for almost every meeting. At Gibhs he paid a glowing tribute to W'm. A. Nicholson, saying that never had 1'nion county known a better citizen, cleaner, more honest, and upright, and if Nicholson had lived. Hid' F.vans and all the other rascals on the board of control would never have been heard of. This was to show that when the dispensary was under honest men, it was the he-t solution of the whiskey question. He thinks there are still honest men, who can control it. .1. 15. Lancaster presided in a jolly manner. AT BUFFALO. Mr. Quinn introduced the speakers, who held forth in front of the (Htstofliee at BuiTalo. Speaking ln-fore the crowd of a I m >u t two hundred all of which were in a jolly good humor, continually whooping, jeering and questioning, was a dillicult task. Jlowever most of tincandidates secured a hearing. , While the crowd was boisterous at times, it was generally caused by j small boys, who were out for the ' t I fun. Johnson and Townsend i seemed to receive the greatest applause. Pi JOXKSVILLK MKKTINC. Township Chairman J. (\ Spears presided at the Jonesville meeting. A Unit four hundred people heard < ? the speaking, and all were orderly ,( 1 and quiet. The candidates followed | "" their usual lines with only slight jr, and uninq>ortant variations. At ui night the speaking was in front of I1? J. W. Bates' store at the mill.!)' This meeting also was similar to the preeeding ones. lii Advertised Letters Remaining in the l'ost Olliee at Union, S.
