The consequence OF this want Of common

CHARLESTON, June 20.-The Con-
gressional Convention for the Third
District was held here to day. A good
attendance of delegates was present,
and the action Of the body was Of de-
cidedly satisfactory character. Hon.
Frank Hereford, present incumbent,
was renominated by reclamation.
A resolution was offered, pledging the
support Of the Convention to its nomi-
nee and to the State ticket nominated al

posed by w. II. Hogemen. alternate

effective terms by II. S. Walker, OF the

The resolution was carried bv a unan'

Much enthusiasm was manifested by

Republican Consistency.

1t is rather amusing to us to read the
Republican papers of West Virginia al
the present time. They are wide awake
on the political situation of affairs
within the State. They are fully aware
Of the inability Of the Radical party to
elect it's candidate over Mr.. Camden,
the regular Democratic and Conserva,
tive nominee, unless they can 10y some
means effect a division in the Demo-
cratic and Conservative ranks. And
how will they do it? That is the ques,
ton. The only plan open to them is
to secure the services Of Governor Jacob
as an independent candidate. They
are pleading and praying, and throwing
out decoys Of all kinds, with the hope
that Mr.. Jacob will announce himself
as candidate for Governor Of West
Virginia, and thus, as thew say, save
the State from perdition. And how
touching is the language they use !
How beautiful is their tribute TO the good
qualities OF Governor Jacob,

Regents Prize Contest at the Uni
yerNity

verstty.
The public competition for the Re-
gents annual prizes came of Monday
evening at the University Chapel. We
were pleased to observe the increased
interest manifested in the exciting con.
test by our rural friends. 1t is an evil
dence of growing interest in the progress
of OIL University on the part of our
farmers we are glad to note. The house
was crowded, every spot that offered a
glimpse of the stage being occupied.
There were four contestants for the
fifteen dollar prize, offered for the best
declaimer, viz: JAS S. Boyers, Randall,
Monongalia county; Ashbel F. Downs,
Geneva, Fsyette county, Pa; Harry
Mcclure and Harry l. Wheat, Wheel
ing, w. Va. The competition is con-
fined to the Preparatory Department.
The Judges, after much difficulty and a
lengthy consideration, awarded, by
vote of a majority of the committee, to
Mcclure, who was the successful con-
testant for the Brown prize OF 1872 for
defamation. The boys all did well.
The twenty-five dollar prize for the best
essay was awarded to NJ. L Temple, OF
Wadestown, Monongalia county. Sub-
ject-"Importauce of Agricultural Edu-
cation" The practical and meri-
torious character OF Mr.. Temples essay
induced Mr.. Slurgiss to make motion
that a copy of it be requested from the
author for publication in one of the
papers of the town. The motion met
with hearty response from the audi

The above paragraph we clip from

that Governor Jacob has too much self
respect, and too much good sense to
allow the Radicals to use him as a tool
with which to accomplish the defeat oil
the Democratic party. Should Gov
ernor Jacob thus allow the use OF his
name he will meet with an overwheln

himself to nerted retirement. The
nominations made at Parkersburg give
great, we might truthfuIly say, entire
satisfaction to the party, and will re-
ceive its uited support, Notwithstanding
the efforts OF the Radicals to the con-
trsry.
The motive OF these gentlemen is too
apparent, and we think Governor Jacob
too shrewd to play into their hands.
The Parkersburg ticket is a good one
and will meet with no serious oppo.
sition.
Radicalism in this State has no show
whatever and they are striving to create
a split in the Democratic ranks, but in
this there is little hope of success. We
trust that every attempt to bring out

THE NEXT LEGISLATURES.

We sincerely trust that the Conven-
ton which meets at the Court House
to-day will give us the best possible
ticket for members of the Legislature
that can be nominated. The next ses-
sion OF the Legislature will be an ex'
ceptional and extraordinary one. 1t
will begin on the third Tuesday in No.
vember and is not limited in duration.
1t may last four months and its labors
may not be completed in six. The
whole work Of adapting the laws to the
new Constitution will have to be per-
formed by ii, and upon the manner in
which it performs its work all the i'm
provements sought to be effected by
the new Constitution will largely de-
pend. The State needs in the next
Legislature the very best legal talent
that can be had, and Ohio county de-
mands there the services OF her best
men.
If ever seat in the Legislature is
conferred upon any man merely as a
compliment or as q reward for party
services, it should not be so now. This
is the very worst time that can occur in
many years for bestowing empty honors
of that kind. The Legislature must
be composed OF workers; Of men OF
education and of comprehensive ability ;
men who know the needs OF the State
and have skill in framing laws. In
some respects the lsbors of the Legis-
lature at its next session will he more diff.
ficult and will demand the employment
of higher order OF talent than those
of the Constitutional Convention itself.
The Convention has given expression to
general principles the Legislature must
provipe all the details Of that system of
government of which the Convention
has furnished merely The outline. We
trust therefore that the delegates to
assemble at the Court House to-day
will appreciate the necessity Of nomi-
mating strong and capable men. None
other are needed at this time and none
other ought to be sent to represent Ohio
county in the Legislature of the State,
when SO much is at stake and when the
session is 80 important as the next is
likely to be.

THE CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION.

Our neightor of the Intelhgemcer has
become 80 completely "muddled" in his
anxiety not to find out the day when the
election for members Of Congress is to
be held in this State, that be has come
10 the conclusion that mo members of
Congress can be elected till the Legisla-
ture has met and made provision for
their election" But, as the Legislature
has already fixed the day and the adop-
ton Of the new Constitution will not
change the law in relation to this subject,
there seems to be no necessity for adj
ditionai legislation concerning it this
year. The following extract from q
private letter from q distinguished
lawyer in this State, though written
hastily and not intended for publication,
states the case 80 clearly as to leave no
doubt about the law:
Il have hastily read over the Sec
lions OF the Code and Schedule which
are referred to, aud the conclusion which
! have reached upon this brief examin.
alton of the point is that the law fixes
the day for the Congressional election
on the fourth Thursday in October.
There is certainly nothing in the Com
stitution or schedule which contravenes
this idea. The 9Th section OF the 4th
article, which fixes the second Tuesday
OF October as the day for holding the
general State elections, is made mop
erstive by the schedule until the second
Tuesday Of October, 1874, for the
schedule, which in that respect controls
that section, fixes the State elections
for 1872, on the fourth Thursday OF
August. Wethus get rid Of one Of Mr..
Keck's points.
The schedule, by clear and distinct
phraseology, restricts the election iE
August to State and county officers,
and there certainly is nothing in
that document which contemplates
or authorizes an election on that
day of a representative in Con-
gress. But it is said that all the
laws in force when the Constitution goes
into operation continue in force until
repealed by the Legislature, and that
the second section of chapter three Of
the Code fixes the time for the election
OF Representative in Congress to be
that day when the general election OF
State takes place. This might be the
fair Interpretation of that section, II the
schedule had not so definitely deter
mined who were and who were not to
be elected on that day; and as there
was q studied omission to embrace a
Representative for Congress in that
enumeration of officers to be elected, it
seems to me that the fair and most
natural construction would be that it
left it on the day fixed by the existing
law. 1t is true the phraseology of that
section might be tortured to mean that
the election o! q representative to Con.
gress should follow the varying changes
made in the day for the general State
election; but think the more proper
construction would be. that the fourth |
Thursday in October being the day |
fixed by law for the election of . |
Representative to Congress, . subse,
quent act enumerating particular officers
to be elected on q different day, and
wholly emitting . Representative to
Congress in that enumeration, leaves
the time O. prescribed by the Code"
