THE CIIT ABLAZE TWTH EN THUSIASM. Social to the Journal. LOCK HAVEN, Monday evening Sept. 9th, IS7B. The city is all one vast mass meet ing—or rather a series of meet nigs. The Greenbackers occupy the Coin t House. They had possession of it since noon and would not yield to others. 11011. F. W. Hughs speaks to a middling sized audience. The Democrats have their meet ing 111 front of the Court House. The crowd is immense, and the en thusiasm knows no bounds. A spe cial train just came in from Belle fonte, loaded, crammed and "jammed with Demociats. Curtin isjust now speaking one of his peculiarly happy efforts. Dill spoke and carried cap tive with his logic and persuasive eloquence the vast assemblage of people. Senator Wallace made one of his stirring i speeches, lion. J. Simpson Africa spoke to the fullest satisfaction of the entire meeting. Such a combination of ability and eloquence cannot be surpassed in the state, and the wild enthusiasm pres ages a grand victory in November. Hon. 11. W. Iloyt, the Republi can candidate for Governor, also spoke in front of the Fallon House : but this meeting was not marked either for numbers or enthusiasm. For the Journal. LET MERIT HAVE ITS JLST REWARD Mr. Editor : —Among the many worthy men that are before the De mocracy of Centre county for their suffrages, tlrere i 3 none more deserv ing the support of Democrats than the Hon. i J . Gray Meek, one of the candidates for Congress. Mr. Meek is a life long Democrat, and has stood up in defense of the glorious principles of the party when others around him faltered and fell. Nor is it on party grounds and for party service only" that Mr. Meek's nom ination is asked. He is a gentleman of staunch integrity, first class abili ty and extensive culture, and is thoroughly identified with the labor and industrial interests of the coun ty and district. Mr. Meek is no novice in Legisla tion. having served the county three several terms in the State Legisla ture, with much credit to himself and honor to his constituency. Let him be nominated "by the county and the district will no doubt respond to the action of the Democ racy of Old Centre, by endorsing her choice. PKNNS VALLEY. Hon. A. 11. Dill, Democratic Can didate for Governor, and Hon. A. G. Curtin, the great War Governor, will positively address the Democra cy of Penns Valley, at Millheim ON FRIDAY EVENING.

Being neither an of fice holder nor an office seeker, and having no other interest in the con test than to see such men nominated as are best fitted for the respective positions and will reflect honor and credit upon the party, I hope you will allow me a little space in your paper to say a few words on the sub ject of a nominee for Congress, on? of the most important offices to be filled. For this position t nve names aie presented to tlie Democrats of the Conntv those of Hons. I'. GRAY MEF.K, I>. G. I>UMland Ex- Gov. CURTIN. While L have naught to say against the two form er, but am willing to acknowledge their claims upon the party and their devotion to its cause, we think the demand ot the people ao the present time is for the nomination of Gov. CURTIN. lie is eminently fitted for the position, and lias every qualilici tiou, ability, integrity and princi ple,'—necessary to render him one of the leaders in Congress. No one will question that in this respect he is fully equal if not superior to his competitors. Moreover his nomina tion is not only demanded by the people of our county but by the Democrats of the entire district, and if his name will be brought before the District Conference by our coun ty. bis nomination can be effected without a struggle and will cause such an enthusiasm throughout the District as will injure his election by an almost uuanimaus vote. But not only do the Democrats ,of the District but those of the entire State expect and demand this nom ination. It will give strength to our State ticket and conciliate to our party the class of men of whom Gov. CURTIN is a representative, and be worth at least 3000 votes our to State ticket. All this can he accomplish ed by the nomination of Gov. Cur tih—llo part of it by that of either of the other gentlemen named. Besides the nomination would be a good one independent of the above considerations. None that would he made would reflect greater credit up on the district—no man whom we can send could exert greater influ ence for his constituents, or would receive more hearty endorsements throughout the length and breadth of the land. New England and the South send their representative men to Washington and shape and mould the legislation of the nation. Why cannot we do likewise ? Gov. CUU TIN does not seek or ask the nomin ation. The office in this case seeks the man,—the people demand his nomination and we feel confident they will show their feeling 011 t lie subject by the almost unanimous verdict at the delegate elections 011 Saturday next. DILI for Governor and CURTIN for Congress will make a ticket that will be irresistible in the central part of the State, and will send our .State ticket to the gates of Philadelphia, with such a sweeping majority that will defy the arithmetic of repeaters and ballot box staffers. Democrats of Centie do you desire tills result? If so, turn out en massee 011 Saturday and voce solidly for CURTIN for Con gress. Make your influence felt for once in the councels of the party.
