Bottom, last Sunday. Hon. Leroy M. Wade of Mt. Vernon, addressed the people of Ayrshire last Saturday evening. He made a wide awake, stirring speech, lor which he received : round after round of applause from the audience. L. M. just Wades right through the events and marks the depth at all margins. Mr. Wade is ever welcome to our town. Come again. We notice that the Press Editor takes groat pains in slurring the .Matthews meeting at Petersburg, <ys the night of the ISth ! If Mr. Matthews was disappointed he did not show his discouragement in the least. And as to the “shifting crowd” we eau safely say it was in the republican portion of the crowd who did not have self resjiect enough to be quiet and give their honorable servant attention. If anyone is disappointed with the speech it must t>e the republicans, who appear to ne at a loss for something to say and scourge each and every successful attempt made by democracy. Such Is the republican policy, anyway. Why do not republicans show their colors. We country people desire to know their aims and intentions, (if they have any) They should show up. They should recite to^us their views, also as honest gentlemen explain their propositions if they come In power that is if they ever expect to come to the front. Have you no local sfafls capable of telling the people why and for what they demand their suffrage? Speak up my time honored republican friends and let us hear from you before it is everlastingly too late. They may have other means of obtaining support. But what we want is to hear

them openly ana puouciy atscnss me issues of the present campaign. And if they cannot, otherwise will not. all is at an end with them, for if their battery will not faee the foe, we say ail is well, get aboard the democratic boat and safely glide until we reuoh the goal, which is to be met and gained on the 6th in the behalf of democracy and the laboring masses. I take the liberty as well as the pleasure of asking our republican adversaries how they like *tbe Senate Bill by tfds time. Not so horrible as predicted is it? eh! No gentlemen, audit' only |ime is tendered the democrat constituents in .congress it will Ik> revised so as to meet the hopes and desires of all men of toil and become a burr in the heel of millionaires, monopolies and trusts and will do it in the nearest possible future. Business is already booming on account of recent actions of tbe present congress. May it continue is the writer’s sincere desire. Be quiet gentlemen and await further results. You have had 82 years at the helm. Please to allow us one-half that number and you will see the j«>or classes climbing out of quagmire in which your system of protection has lodged them. Your system, gentlemen, has proved protection for the monied lew, while we advocate freedom for all. If there be favors shown anyone, why in the name of common sense should it not be shown the poor classes, who live by the honest sweat of their toil-worn brows And now my honored friends I do not wish to wound your feelings on account of past party affiliations. But go to the polls next Tuesday, think earnestly whether or not you wish your vote to count for your interest, look carefully over the quadruple list of the aspirants to the several offices, investigate the issues upon w hieh each set are pledged, east your ballot in the way you would have the a flairs conducted and retire satisfied that you have conscientiously deposited your suffrage; Now democratic friends a word in conclusion to you. How can you as intelligent thinkers and houest ; voters forsake the time-honored party of! your youth and prosperity, for it is the only party that has ever tolerated laws in behalf Of the masses. Stand fearlessly by the grand old party, see it through the present struggle and you will never regret it. Vote for your interests and you will ever adhere and never disregard democracy. The democratic party is today, as it always has l>een, the poor man’s friend, and its record will erove the assertion. Barlow. ;q experiment. That’s Why Cure. J. R. j Adams & Son’s.
