THE Republican tlklly last Wednesday evening was a successful affair in every particular. The City Hall was packed its u.tmost capacity to hear Hon. R. |W. Coon speak on the political issues of tfee day^.. He made an excellent talk, showing up the shams and pretenses of the Democratic party in so plain a light that no one could tail to understand. Mr. Coon is a forcible speaker and is doing good work iu the campaign. The Mc­ Henry Glee Club sang a number of good songs and everybody seemed to enjoy the occasion. THE Democratic Mass Meeting and Pole Raising, in this village on Saturday last drew out a very small crowd in the afternoon, but in the evening the hall •^wtis comfortably filled. The pole was raised successfully and without accident. It is 84 feet high and presents a neat appearance. The rain enterfered some­ what with the speaking ia the afternoon, but we believe the programme was car­ ried out in full. While there was not as much enthusiasm as we expected to see, the Democracy seem to be well satisfied, with the meeting andjjubhis case we ce r­ tainly ought to 'ber" H'ith certarn d^feat staring them in the face it is bard whistle We admit.

( JAMES CBOW, of Crystal Lake, has been Appointed by the World's Fair Commis­ sion to gather samples of corn raised in McHeory County, and as he has not the time to pfereonatly visit every farmer be has asked us to solicit and receivesamples in his behalf in this section. Farmers are therefore requested to select samples of ten or twelve ears and leave the same at this office at as early a date as possible, sometime in the next six weeks, when they will be forwarded to Mr. Crow, prop­ erly labeled. We wish to urge upon the farmers the importance of this matter. It is very desirable that our county make a good showing at the World's Fair, and this can only be done by assisting Mr. Crow to secure the samples. Send in your samples and we will see that they are properly taken care of. FOR SALE.--Two fine Safetys at your own price. Almost given away if applied lor BOOB. J. p. SMITH. THE DUP^feBepublran hind man at the i^9!if&«-4 office, Woodstock, accus­ ed us last week of appropriating his brainy (?) productions without giving proper credit for the same, but crediting it to some other paper, and ciaiuit* that it was done as an intentional slight. Now the article in question we clipped from the Chicago Tribune, where it was credited to the Ireie Pr^sei, a German paper published in Chicago, and whether it ever appeared iu the Woodstock Senti­ nel we know not, but do know that we credited it where we found it without any intention of injuring or slighting any one. Unlike the Sentinel manager we are not looking for a chance to injure onr neigh­ bors, but we are compelled at times to tell them a few plain facts, in self-defense. Now this exceedingly brainy democratic- mugwump who manages the Sentinel would do well to give the American Economist credit for some of his passed off sayings before he accuses others of slighting his royal highness. The most original thing we know he has said of late is when be told a person a short time since, "I am just as much a Demo­ crat now as ever." Well, we guess So.

THE fifth and last month of the run of "Ali Baba" began last Sunday night. The piece bas now been running at the Chicago Opera House since the 2d of last June, and it is estimated that over 280,* 000people have already enjoyed its man­ ifold beauties. The fourth edition, which ^ras put on a few weeks ago, has proved a great success, and two or *three of the features introduced at that time have become permanent attractions in the piece. The duet with invisible chorus by Bertha Ricci and Henry Norman sung in the poetical environment of one of Dan- gerfleld's most exquisite stage settings, is one of the most delightful musical numbers ever heard in any of the Chica­ go Opera House extravaganzas. Next week the already large force of principal dancerawill be augmented by the appear­ ance of Biancifiori, a celebrated Italian male dancer.

Since she has occupied her position of lady ot the White House, however, her public duties have largely prevented the exer­ cise of her artistic genius; but in that period she bas found leisure to paiat one of the loveliest representations of flower- life that every cams from an artist's brush--a mngnificent group of orchids, 36n a porcelain nnnel. tlmt broad and kindly spirit which has marked her career, she has presented this single pro­ duction of her scant l<-i-ure to Che public and DEMOREST'S MAGIZINE has the honor of being the medium through which this painting is offered to the mother^jnrives, and daughters of America, to whmn it is lovingly dedicated. There is no taint of politics in it: it is simply the tribute of a good woman's love for the women of her nation, superbly expressed in color and form--the foremost woman of the Republic cementing, by means of her art, her first sisterhood with ail others of her sex in the land. Mrs. Harrison's pafatiag has been re­ produced in the highest style of art, of the same size as the original (11x15 inches) and is an absolutely perfect counterpart, in every particular, to the faintest tint of color, even to, the pecu­ liar texture of the porcelain. One of them wonderful reproductions of "A White House Orchid," painted by the President's wife, ia the White House, from an orchid grown in the White House which is to be presented FREE with each py of DEMOEEST'S FAMILY MAGIZLNE r October, which can be purchased of ny of our local news dealers; or send 20 ts to the publisher, W.

Guests were there from N. Y., Chicago and Elgin, and many from Nunda and Crystal Lake, about 75 in all. After the introduction and congratula­ tions, and an hour's social time, the guests were invited into the dining room, where two long tables stood, actually groaning under the load of edibles, which we all partook of heartily, after which ice creatn and cake were served. Every­ thing passed off in the most pleasant and agreeable manner. After refreshments were served the company spent an hour socially, and in looking at the beautiful articles presented; and toward the wee sma' hours the company began taking their departure, all feeling they had spent a very-pleasant evening, and wishing the couple many more anniversaries.
