An Address to the Republicans of Snyder County.
WE ARE upon the eve of an important
political election, and in the closing
hours of the contest, the Republican Standing
Committee of the County, through its Chairman
ud Secretary, issue the following address. Large
and enthusiastic meetings have been held in all
portioM of the county, which were ably address
ed by prominent, party workers from this and
other counties in the State. The issues of the
campaign have been ably aud intelligently dis
cussed, and the Inrgeattcndanccat all these meet
ingfl is conclusive evidence that the Republicans
01 Snyder I Dooly are fully aroused and the Com
mittee is encouraged to believe that Snyder Coun
ty will give no uncertain sound at the (tolls, on
the th inst. Much literature has been distribut
ed, while the papers of the county have given
gratuitously, many columns of their space, to
the advocacy of the cause of Republicanism, the
press of the county has never been more iinani-
sue-
cess of the entire Republican ticket, than during
the present campaign. The Committee takes this
method of thanking one and all, who have given
them such a loyal support in the campaign up to
this time, anil calls njion every Republican to do
his full duty, there should be no skulking, let

A feeling of Intense hostility to the

served In the army and navy of the
United States, both during the rebel

Sons of veterans of the civil war

did In '01 and '65. The present crisis

The Boston Transcript telle of an
Episcopal church that is being sued
because it is not sufficiently "High
church." It appears that a certuiu
person left money to this church, with
the provision that the services should
come up to a certain standard of
churehmanship. The minister hns

The ticket seller, stolidly oblivious to
the ambiguity of the question, replied
that it did not.
