DEMOCRACY ItJCl'OUNnitn .
On Tuesday evening a limited
number of the faithful assembled at
Martin's Hall to derive inspiration
and glean new light, upon the cam
paign issues through the expound
ing of their principles by Judge
O'Day of Portland. The meeting
was presided over by Hon. Robert
Viatch, who voiced his sentiments
in a pleasant little talk and then
introduced the evening's orator
Judge O'Day, who entertained his
hearers for about two hours witjt
the details of democratic philosophy
and sought to buoy up their faith
ma triumph at the polls on No
vember 6. The reporter was
obliged to divide his time with the
liig republican rally in Masonic
Hall, which precludes u more ex
tended notice of the democratic
gathering. Judge O'Day is an able
speaker and got close to his au
dience, because they were mainly
up in front, and it is understood
that they felt well paid for having
listened to his internretation of
their cherished theories.
Rough staging.
The stage from Bohemia on last
Saturday got in quite late in the
evening. The heavy rains in the
mountains made of Sharp's Creek
a swollen torrent which the stage
was obliged to ford several times,
besides fallen rrees blocked the
roads and a less intrepid driver
never would have gotten through.
01 all the jehews that handle the
ribbons in these parts Ed Patterson
stands at the head. No obstacles
are permitted to bar his way. He
laughs at the storms, smiles at the
mud and pursues the even tenor of
his way nnd is sure to get you
there on time.
A MONSTltR Al'I'MC
J. B. Hales who lives about 8
miles east of town on Ilarmes
creek, near Row river, brought to
this office on Monday n splendid
Glori Mundi apple that grew on
bis place which measured 14x14
inches. It is a beauty and 110 mis
take. Many thanks Mr. Bales.
Two nitAUTIWS.
W. H. Lincoln on Tuesday pre
sented this office with two apples of
the King of Tompkins County va
riety. They measure 12x12
inches and are indeed beauties.
Many thanks Mr. Lincoln.
THE '49 DRAMA.
CROWDED HOUSE GREETED
'HIE HOME TAI.UNT.
The Play Well Produced and Well
Received and the Woodmen
of Hie Wot Id Well Pleased.
On Saturday evening last the
much talked about drama of the
days of '49 was given at the Opera
House to an appreciative audience
that filled the hall full. Promptly
nt 8 o'clock the curtain rose on the
first act and throughout the entire
play everything worked in such
perfect unison that had the char
acters been in the hands of pro
fessionals they could not have been
more evenly rendetcd or more
strikingly portrayed, and the
audience never fur a moment, from
the going up of the curtain in the
first act to its falling on the com
pleted drama, lust its absorbing in
terest in the delails and the final
consummation of triumph of the
hero and heroine over the heavy
villiau and his minor satclites.
This play was conceived and en
tered into for a most worthy object
and was enacted by seventeen
worthy men and women of this
community, who gave their time
and labor freely to the end that an
evening of pleasant and instructive
entertainment might be enjoyed by
til and the furtherance of good be
advanced in other directions. That
success crowned their efforts is due
to their single aim of purpose. In
the six mouths that the writer has
Iteen in this city no professional
organization has given the people
so good a performance as this ag
gregation of home talent. It is
spoken of on the streets in high
terms of praise and the hope is ex
pressed that the entertainment will
be repeated at no distant date.
To particularize on the merits of
the individual players would con
sume more space than can well be
allotted, and all deserve merited
mention for the parts they played,
tl'.ereforc the principals only will be
considered as they were seen.
Mrs. Goodman as Tatters cap
tured the large audience the mo
ment of bet appearance and held
tlieut with her to the end.
Mrs. Vandeuburg was an ideal
picture of the temperance mission
ary. Her makeup was true to life
and she was full of guile.
F. G. Eby, as the hero had a
most difficultlpart. In the deserted
cabin scene he was at his best and
made a decided hit. His grief
over the death of his mother was
also a strong card.
Harry I'ickard as the villain
made the most of his part, and if
the people of this city did not know
that Harry is a good fellow he
might be invited to leave town, for
he acted l'ke bad medicine.
J. C. Johnson as the Major was
simply immense and acquitted him
self with much credit throughout.
His antics and trials with the gar
den gate and a heavy jag kept the
audience in a roar of laughter.
Mr.' Goodman as the all-around
officeholder and boon companion
of the Major caused a deal of merri
ment and won the approval of the
audience.
W. L. Coppernoll as the land
speculator and victim of the villain
did some very good acting, especi
ally in the deserted cabin in the
woods.'
W. Wallace in his dual character
of negro man servant and as
Lawyer Holt made the most of the
parts assigned to hint.
NATIVH PAINT.
Ellis Simmons and R. Lane were
in town 011 Monday exhibiting
some fine specimens of work done
with the paint ore taken from Mr.
Simmons' mine at Walker. They
have prepared a quantity of this
natural product and are now intro
ducing it to the public. From the
snecimeus shown it is all right and

SOLD Till! OLD l'ARM.
Uncle Hob Carey, whom every
body knows and likes and who has
lived in these parts for many years,
has sold the old farm for a good
round sum and is going back east
to visit once again the scenes of his
youthful days. He came here from
Kansas about 1870 and for a year
or more worked at bis trade as
blacksmith in Latham. He then
set up a shop for himself here itrl
Cottage Grove and for 20 years
carried on that business. He then
made a trip to California to visit his
brother and other relatives, for
about a year, and on his return
hpm boutrht .10 acres of land at
a
Gowdy ville, got married the second
time and settled down to the peace
ful life of the old farm. Now he
has sold out and for a time at least
will leave these familiar scenes.
Uncle Bob will be missed from his
accustomed haunts, and many times
his name will be spoken in loving
remembrance by his host of friends
about here. The Nugget wishes
him God speed and many days of
pleasure in the time to come

In the last two weeks Contractor
Lea has made wonderful strides in
the reconstruction of Main street.
Three entire blocks have been
covered with coarse rock and the
two remaining blocks have received
their filling in and half of one has
received its first layer ot rock. The
stormy weather of the past day or
two has greatly retarded the work,
but the contractor will not let any
thing stop him from prosecuting the
work, and is fqrging ahead as fast
as it is possible to do so. That
portion already laid furnishes an
eloquent object lesson when con
trasted with the wretched condition
and unsightly appearance of the
unfinished portion.
