Organised tyrannx Tremendous foeJiug exists respecting the meeting held at the Assembly Rooms on Wednesday evening, The meeting was con. 1 vened by the Liberal, Junior Radical, Cymru ] ■v Vjte, aud Liberal Women's organisations. « Phese clubs comprise voters and non-voters— especially non-voters—and the latter were well represented. A number of other electors also attended but they were either made to stand on one side, or leave the room, whilst other Liberal voters abstained from going into the hall, and waited about the corridors and the reading-room, awaiting events. Amongst the rejected ones were such veterans as the Rev WILLIAM JONES and the Rev JOHN WIL- LIAMS, Methodist ministers, who have grown grey in the service of Liberalism. A number of other leading Liberals, who are not mem- bers of any of these clubs, were also excluded, whilst scores of non-voters, including youths and young women, were permitted to be present and record their votes The out- rage committed upon these respected ministers of the Gospei has caused a feeling" of profound indignation, and has done an immense amount of harm to MrWvNFORD PHILIPPS, who is personally an excellent candidate. One gentleman who was turned out of the room gave expression to his feelings in lan- guage more forcible than polite. A well- known minister close by mildly suggested that he should not use such language, "bllt," be added, I feel just as you do!

THE LIBERAL SPLIT The Liberal split in Cardiganshire is be- coming more and more intense day by day, z!' and it is very certain that the meeting of delegates to be held to-day at Lampeter will be remarkable for intensity of feeling, and it will probably be followed by a permanent division of the party into two hostile camps, each more bitter towards the other than to- wards the out-and-out Tory party. Six months ago it would have been impossible even to conceive that the party could be so split up as it is now The causes that have led up to the crisis are various, but it is onlv now that circumstances have combined One of the chief causes is the prevalence j of a feeling in almost all parts of the county that the leaders of the Liberal Association, and especially the Aberystwyth members, are bossing it too much. It is our own impression that the accusation is not altogether justified. The Aberystwyth folk h-ave undoubtedly a great advantage over y 11 n other members of the public bodies of the county in consequence of their great exper- 0 ience. But the feeling against them has been growing almost sinee the first form- ation ef the County Council and the feel- ing against, them has of course been sedul- ously nursed and nourished by the Conser- vatives. There is also the fact that A hen Mr VAUG IIAN DAVIES left the Conservatives and went over to the Liberals he failed to bow the knee to the ruling powers, who naturally eaotigh did not want to encourage interlopers who might challenge their power and influence. And incidents of a personal nature have occurred which have embittered the feelings between Mr DAVIES and his leaders. He Mts almost been intensely ambitious of a seat in Parliament, and ever since 1880 has has made that one of the chief aims of his life. For fifteen years he has laboured in season and out of season to attain that end. And lin n marrietl a wife who is wealthy, an event which has added to his popularity. Many persous feel strongly that their Parliamentary representative should be a man from the county, who would have opportunities of knowing his constituents and their requirements. Mr BOWEN ROWLANDS, Mr DAVID DAVIES, Mr E. M. RICHAKDS, and others have been outsiders, and when Mr VAUGHAN DAVIES offered himself they jumped at the chance. Another cause of his increasing popularity with the electors has been a continuous carping at him by our very highly esteemed local Libera! contemporary. The unfair manner in which it has dealt with him has aroused people's sympathy. It has been hinted that the paper has all along been Mr DAVIES' friend in disguise, inten- tionally or otherwise Another incident which has done Mr VAUGHAN DAVIES an immense amount of good was the conduct of the organisers of Wednesday's meeting at the Assembly Rooms, when some of the leading Liberals of the town were refused the privi- lege of (voting, simply because they did not belong to one or other of the local clubs whilst persons without Parliamentary votes were permitted to vote Mr VAUGHAN DAVIES' political rival Mr WYNFORD PHILITPS, is above reproach. His conduct throughout the contest has been most gentlemanly, and his friends will look back upon this preliminary campaign with satisfac- tion as far ¡¡s he is concerned.

ELECTION JOTTINGS. Wednesday night's meeting," said an ardent Radical and Nonconformist, and a member of the Cardiganshire County Council, on Thursday, will hatch a larger number of Conservatives than any meeting ever held in Aberystwyth. Which is good news. If Vaughan Davies is selected,'5 says a 9 well-known public man, who is also one of the most enterprising business men in Aber- 0 ystwyth, I will vote for Harford." And he looked as if he meant it. Mr WILLIAM DAVIES, solicitor, who is Mr VAUGHAN DAVIES' agent, is credited bv all parties with having worked remarkably. well in securing the selection of Mr Davies as the Liberal candidate for Cardiganshire. For weeks past he has been most assiduous, visit- ing the various districts and corresponding with agents and others in all parts of the county. Whatever may be the ultimate result of Thursday's selection, Mr William Davies has done his best to ensure the selec- tion of his client. Aberystwyth people will feel a special inter- est in the struggle for the representation of the Denbigh Boroughs, for both candidates are bound by family ties to the town. Mr Tudor How ell,the Conservative candidate, is brother-in-law to Archdeacon Protheroe, and Mr W. H. Morgan, the Liberal candidate, is son-in-law to the late Mr J. Rees, J.P., whose house in North Parade is still kept by the family as a summer residence. Mr William Watkins, solicitor, Newtown, the Conservative agent, is confident that Major Pryce-Jones, son of Sir Pryce Pryce- Jones, THE retiring CONSIRRFTTIVE AUMJTTYR will win at the coming election for Mont- gomery Boroughs. Mr R W Williams-Wynn, the Conserva- tive candidate for Montgomeryshire, has made excellent use of his time and opportunities since 1892, and it is not at all improbable that he will defeat Mr Humphreys-Owen, the present member. On Wednesday evening a meeting of the Members of the Liberal Club, the Junior Radical Club, the Women's Liberal Asocia- tion, and the Cymru Fydd Society, took p! :ce at the Assembly Rooms to make a st'leeiioii between Mr Vaughan Davies and Mr W ynford Pbilipps, both of whom have come out in the Liberal interest,and to appoint delegates to support their nominee at the meeting of the delegates of the county, which will make the final selection at Lampeter on Thursday. Councillor D. C. Roberts presided and there was a crowded attendance. Owing to the unbusiness-like manner in which the arrangements had been made, many good Liberals not connected with any of the associations obtained admittance, the conse- quence being that a considerable time was occupied in naming the intruders and re- questing them to leave. The hard and fast rule laid down caused much ill-feeling, and things were pretty lively for sometime. When the business of the meeting was commenced the Rev T. Levi proposed the nomination of Mr Wynford Philipps, Mr David Samuel proposing Mr Vaughan Davies. On a vote being taken 113 were for Mr Wynford Philipps, and 34 for Mr Vaughan Davies. The delegates having been appointed, the meeting decided that each should be asked if he would vote for the nominee of the meeting at Lampeter. A promise was only elicited with somft difficulty from alfew of the delegates as they took umbrage at harino- their fidelity doubted. ° It is understood that Mr A. J. HUGHES will be Mr HARFORD'S election agent at Aber- ystwyth, and Mr W. HUGHES-JONES will represent him in an outlying district.

REMOVAL.—The Misses REES, Lapidary and Jewellers, beg to announce that they have removed their stock from No. 14 to No. 12, Marine Terrace during alterations. OBITUARY.—We regret to announce the death of Dr Anthony, of Greenfield Crescent, Edgbaston. By his decease, Aberystwyth has lost a true and valuable friend. Dr Anthony was an annual visitor to Aber- ystwyth, and he was at all times very enthusiastic in his recommendations of thii town as a health resort He always stayed at the Belle Vue Hotel. His prox- imity to Mr Kandrick's house brought him into con- siderable intimacy with that gentleman, with whom he used to converse a great deal on astronomical, microsaopic and other scientific subjects. The de. ceased has left to Mr Kendrick a valuable mierosope as a momento of many hours' companionship. Dr Anthony was a graduate of Gonville and Cains Col- lege, Cambridge. He had travelled very extensively, on ttie continent of Europe and other parts of the world. Liko Ulysses, he had visited many cities and seen men. He always regretted not having paid a visit to the United States. He was a very well read man. He could converse in Arabic, Italian, German, and French. When he was Itu h s last visit at Aber- ystwyth, he studied Welsh Grammar and ransldtion with Mr David Samuel, M.A., the Old Bauk. He was most enthusiastic over this study. He read easy adaptations of the Mabinogion with much flu- ency, and he literally glowed in admiration o t ■ i «ir beauties. His great ambition was to be able to read the stories themselves in o-d Welsh. He took a great interest in tracing the influence of the L:ttin I- Yr&lfcfv ^,1 LL. c W-lur, Wt.A the vVeish was aiuost unbounded. He never censed to speak highly of the ability of the Welsh people, whom he intimately knew, as bilingculists. Dr Anthony's conversational powers were marvellous. His raaige was large, and tits knowledge of English literature, and especially its poetry, was surprising. He appeared to know the poets almost by heart from Shakepeare to Tennyson. He was a good classic, and nothing delighted him more that an apt quotation trom Homer or Virgil. BANKRUPTCY EXAMINATION.—The Baukraptcy Examination of Mr E. Jones, Feathers Hot- Abei- ayrou, which was to have taken place at Aberyst- wyth on Tuesday was again adjourned until Tuesday next. AMBULANCE.-The seven policemen and the eight civiliaas who passed at the recent examination will assemble at the Town Hall, Monday afternoon next. Each man will receive a certificate, and in addition the polioemen will receive a police badge to be worn on the arm. These men, with others who have previously pajs«d, will form the nucleas of "the Aberystwyth Brigade of the South Wales Corps." All the men who pass from the class which is now being held, and from all future classes, will be drafted into the brigade, so that ere long Aberystwyth will have in proportion to its inhabitants a brigade second to none in the kingdom in numbers and efficiency.
