The Republicans are mightly alarmed' about Wisconsin, which Is by no means safe for the . O. F. After desperate efforts to get the Populists to put up an electoral tick et, that has been done with the hope that It will help the Republican chances. A four years administration by a man like .Judge Parker, who would proceed for the good of the country without fear or favor, would be of inestimable value to this land. This Republican policy playing is getting tiresome to all but grafters, and trust magnates. The Republican leaders say they look for a great Increase in the yote of this state. Two years ago it was about 70,(100 but they expected it to be from 110,000 to 1JO.O0O. They de clare that there are counties In the east which now have candidates in the field which two years ago did not poli lifty votes. Saves Twe From Death.

DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN. Candidates Swinging Around the Circle-Good Crowds and Good Speeches. The County canvass resumed at Bullock last Saturday. A very good crowd greeted our candidates and speakers at this point. Messrs. Lyon, Mayes and Howard ail made their announcements in their usual grace ful and felicitous style. It is notice able that these splendid gentlemen who have only formerly been making mere statements before the people in announcing themselves are now mak ing longer speeches. Sheriff Howard, especially, has increased - the length of his speech some minutes and makes a real good short speech, as do the other two gentlemen. J udge Graham at this point made a speech of an hour or mote's length covering State Issues thoroughly. I lls speech was listened to with deepest Interest, and It is thought much good was done by the speech. After the close of .Judge Graham's speech Mr. Wm. H. Harrison, a ris ing member of the Oxford bar, was calied for and responded with a speech o 30 minutes which was received with interest by those present, as he is a fluent and pointed speaker. The appointment of the candidates was filled at Dexter Saturday night. At this meeting Mr. C. F. Crews, one of the leading Democrats of the county, was master of ceremonies and grace fully Introduced the speakers. Sheriff Howard responded to his name In a brief enthusiastic speech. Messrs. Mayes and Lyog being un well did not attend this meeting, but were ably represented by Mr. Crews. JudgeGraham made a long speech of great force and power, and one which delighted the large and enthusiastic crowd. Mr. Wm. H. Harrison was next in troduced and spoke for ao minutes or more, and his effort proved a good one and was greeted with enthusias tic applause. Gen. B. S. Royster, Chairman of the Executive Committee, closed the meeting in a splendid speech of an hour and a quarters length, touching on both State and National issues. Throughout the speech he received the. closest attention and the ap plause was hearty and frequent. At the meeting there was a good crowd present 100 to 125 and it was a true old-fashioned gathering of the "unterrlfied." There was warmth and enthusiasm throughout the meet ing. The speaking was held in the comfortable store of our old frie?;d Wm. H. Green which is Democratic headquarters. The candidates were at Stovall on Mondayand had a good crowd for that place present. After the an nouncement of the other candidates Judge Graham made his usual capi tal speech which was received with much enthusiasm. The candidates were at Cornwall Tuesday and were greeted with a good audience. After the other can didates made their announcements Judge Graham made a long speech in which he ably and pointedly discuss ed county and State matters and re ceived the enthusiastic applause of the large crowd. Wednesday brought the candidates to Oak Hill where a fairly good crowd greeted them and a very interesting meeting was held. The usual speak ers were present and there was a warmth of enthusiasm which encour arged our candidates. After the con clusion of Judge Graham's able an I ciear cut speech Mr. Wm. H. Harri son was called for and quickly re sponded with an enthusiastic speech. Capt. W. A. Devlnwas at Cornwall and made an unusually good speech which was warmly received by his old time friends. Altogether the campaign has been very encouraging as the attendance upon the meetings has been some lar ger than 2 years ago, and everything points to an overwhelming Demo cratic victory. So don't forget to register and vote the straight Dem ocratic ticket. The Proper Thing to Do. The press and the people of ti e State have been very severe In Its crit icism of Judge Peebles in regard to the Rod well matter. The Judge had just as well "go way back and sit down" for his useful ess on the bench Is a thing of the past. As we have said before the proper thing for him to do would be to resign. Warren Record. Republican Campaign. The Republican candidates start ed out Monday on their fruitless cam paign with Mr. J. T. Cozart as speak er. They spoke to a small crowd at Wilton. We take it that Billy Brown was on deck to help whoop the boys up. The Republicans will have to get new leaders if they ever expectto build up their party in Granville as the "new Issues" are played out.

The time is ripe that we as citizens who feel a special pride In the mem ory of our heroic dead soldiers should erect a lasting monument to their memory. The united Daughters of the Confederacy, Granville Grays Chapter, have been making efforts to start this work. Already several hundred dollars h'isbeen pledged and can be relied on. The ladies have by theirentertainmeut raised an amount which may seem small when we con template raining eighteen hundred or two thousand dollars yet we must remember every undertaking must have a beginning and for the short while they have been working we must concede that they have done well and their efforts have not been relaxed but continue to strive by their entertainments to Increase the amount. Their next effort will be on the first of November at which time they will have an old-fashion barbecue by that celebrated caterer, Mr. James Hobgood. AH may come and hear our Illustrious Senator Sim mons on the issues of the day and call at the Carr building near the old Bank of Granville where they will find Mr. Hobgood and a number cf ladies to help them to a big piece of cue and stew with pickles and other relishes. Everybody will come to hear Senator Simmons and every body will get hungry, and remember that while you get a good dinner you are helping in a good cause This monument will be erected at the Intersection of Main, Wllllams boro streets In front of the court house and on It will be inscribed in raised letters the name of every Gran ville soldier. The ladles are In the lead in this undertaking and we all know they lead to victory. Come and help them in their barbecue and in the next Issue of The Public led ger they will tell of something at tractive to entertain you ag-:in. A Love Letter.
