duction by far surpassed auytblng
ever given in Salem, and was deserv
ing of a crowded bouse. At the con
clusion of the "Fete" the floor was
cleared and about twenty couples en
Joyed the pleasusres of the dance un
til an early hour Thursday morning

FROST

Night.
Marble Heart Given to
G Grab Bingham
Three Ladies and Fifteen
Men Present.
Only Four Republicans There, Rest
All Populists-
it Was a Lengthy Session Men May
Come and Men May Go, but G.
Grab's Eloquence Like the Late Mr,
Tennyson's Brook, Has a Habit of
Flowing On for an Indefinite Period
It Was a Rustling of Dry Bones but
Along by the "Wee Sma Hours" the
Speaker Grew Fervent.
The biggest frost within the mem
ory of the oldest Inhabitant fell at
Liberty last bight, but it did not do
any damage to the yegltatlon. Tho
occasion was a much advertised meet
Ing of Republicans at which the Hon.
G. Grab Bingham was to expound
Simon pure Republicanism, The
andienco was a small but silent affair.
There were present three pretty
young ladies, four Republicans, nine
Populists, Mr. Bingham himself In
cldcntally being there, and a reporter.
It was a sort of "Three men In a boat,
not counting the dog" kind of a
crowd. But they were good looking,
good natured and took their medi
cine In silence. It was not half so
large an audience as greeted Baby
McCourt at South Salem Wednes
day night, but In extenuation of this
fact It should be remembered that
many moons haye waxed and waned
since G. Grab had tho pleasure of
posing as an infant prodigy such as
Is the Juvenile member of the law
firm of McCourt & Co.
o okaij arrives first.
G, Grab and his friend a Mr. Dayls
of Salem were the first ou the ground.
Pretty soon two young men came with
an easel (they called It a weasel,) upon
which was deposited later In the eve
ning a picture of Abraham Lincoln.
The chairman opened the meeting
without resorting to the use of either
a corkscrew or a can opener and ex-
claimed In clarion tenes: ''Peace hath
her victories no less rcnouned than
war, "and hinted that his was a victory
of peace. "Without any further pre
liminary Bervlces he Introduced the
man of destiny, the Honorable Mr.
Bingham. Mr. Bingham presented a
nobby appearance, wore an enchant

(liar.)
WAIVES THE IlLOODY SHIRT.
The speaker began by walylng the
bloody shirt. He talked much, loud
and long about "Bleeding Kansas."
He eloglzed at great length the
late John Brown the hero of Ossa
watomie, a gentleman whose knap
sack was No. 49 and whose body has
been mouldering in the ground, no
told how much blood had been shed In
Kansas, the home of "Isms" and Mary
Yellen Lease. "Kansas is the
home of droughs and cyclones"
he cried, It gave birth to chinch bugs
and populism. Why chinch bugs aro
the bane of my existence. They are
my nightmare," bo continued as he
skillfully scratched bis left shin with
the great toe of his right foot. It
was to poor deluded pops like these
that he came out to talk to. Hewent
on to say how he was doing this speak
ing out of the goodness of his heart.
He had never gotten anything out of
politics, no not he, but was Inspired
to talk by his loye of the dear people.
He was a good meeting bouse kind of
a man, on tbe order of Lemuel Joc
lyn who "believed In the Book from
klver to klvcr, but couldn't keep from
fighting roosters to save his life."
HE DEFINES MONEY.
He then graphically told what
money was and ltsorigln, relating how
"In the days that are gone Maggie"
there was no money In the backwoods.
No circulating medium ana the peo
ple had to barter property. He told
a patbetlc tale of a man who had a
a dog that he did not want but he
wanted a sheep, and another man had
a sheep that he wasn't enam
ored on, but he was hungering
and thirsting for a dog and how these
men who were so necessary to each
others happiness looked for each other
seven years before they met. This
happened In the Waldo Hills and
caused money to be Invented, sound
money at that.
THE TOOZONIAN EPIQRAM-
He got oil the Taowmlau epigram
that the basis of money should be
human toll,
In short he preferred the human
toll standard to the Gold Standard,
but his piety would crop out at times
when ho would cry aloud, "God made
the gold and put It in the mountains."
ORIGIN OF THE FIAT MONEY.
He related what a horrible time some
old kings of England had in getting
their annual rakeoff because the peo
ple had become tired of giving up. Tbe
kings then weatilnto the business of
making fiat money and would put tbe
subjects In the Basttle or Moro castle
If they declined to -receive It. This
was the real origin of the Populists.
When tho English came over In the
Mayflower they brought their flat
money with them and tried, to swap It
to the Indians who had wampum,
which was sound money for -two reas
ons, because It represented human
toll and would "sound" when they
rattled It.
At this point It was easy to Imagine
a smile to cross over the features of
President Lincoln on the canvass near
the speaker.
COLONISTS HAD MONEY TO DDRN
He said the colonists had money to
burn. In fact they had so much they
didn't know what to do with It.
When they took it to the banks they
carried it in pillow cases, ne admit
ted that Alexander Hamilton and
Thos Jefferson consented to the es
tablishment of the 10 to 1 ratio and It
had never been changed. Here the
picture of Mr. Lincoln smiled again,
and It began to dawn that the bring
ing In Mr. of Lincoln's picture was a
Populist trick and served to call down
the speaker when he got too gay and
festive, as on the occasion when he
was giving Mr. Veach a drubbing for
advocating the Issue of paper money
to carry on tho war, a thing Mr, Llr
coin did
HEQINS TO READ.
He seemed to run out af something
to talk about and began to read ex
tracts from various speeches of Sena
tors Merrill, Sherman and others on
the crime of '73. no had a
valise full of these speeches as
yolumlnous as tho proverbial
barrel of sermons used by a young
Metdodlst circuit rider. At last the
lamp went out and stopped the read
ing business. He then chanted:
"The day Is dark mine eyes aro dim
I can scarcely seo to read this hymn,"
and began to talk somo more.
NO SILVER 1JEFORE '73.
He satd there was no silver colniu
until after the crime of '73, He wui
willing to pay all kinds of money for
a dollar made before that period the
dawn of tho golden era, This state
ment fell on the audience with a dull
sickening thud, to use a stereotyped
phrase employed by reporters In writ
ing up a hanging.
JORY'S LITTLE BOOK.
Mr. Bingham read from and expa
tiated upon, for quite a while, a book
written by T. C. Jory, of this city.
Themfollowed a section of his speech
that was as dry as a powder mill in
August, Later on towards morning
however ho bccauio more fluent and
spoke of the war with Spain and In
fact a little of everything.
GAVE HIM FLOWERS.
When In the course of human events
lie wound up, a young lady blushlogly
gave him some beautiful flowers,
which ho took. For that matter ha
has never been known to refuse any
thing yet.
THE VOTE OF THANKS
In conclusion the gentleman wht
acted as chairman proposed a rising
voto of thanks be given the speaker
for bis kindness etc., and everyone of
tho four Republicans stood np and tho
agony was over,
