THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS,

Our Board of Supervisors has, in our
opinion, committed a mistake. The people
of Jefferson, and Of every other county in
West Virginia, adopted the County Court
system on the 22nd of last mouth when thew
ratified the new Constitution. The language
of that instrument is emphatically ''There
shall be in each county of the State County
Court" although, further on in Section 3d.
it is provided that, ''The Legislature shall,
upon the application of any county, reform,
modify or alter the County Court established
By this Constitution in such county," With
ont considering the question whether the
words "reform, modify or alter" confer upon
the Legislature the power to abolish County
Courts, it is very evident that the election re.
ferred to by Section 81, Art. VIII, takes
place after the Legislature, upon the applica.
ton of any county, by its delegates, has re-
formed, modified or altered the County Court
system, as it now exists. 1t was not intended
by the Constitution that, after the people had
adopted the County Court system by the rati-
tcation of the Constitution, there should then
be one election to ascertain whether the peo-
pie would have County Courts, and, then, sub
sequently, another election to ratify the modi-
fications made by the Legislature. Briefly,
after the most careful examination of the Con-
stitution upon this point, We feel certain that
the people of the several counties of the State
adopted the County Court system by the rats
fcation of the new Constitution /; that if thew
do not like that system, application may be
made by any county through its delegates to
the Legislature, "to reform, modify or alter"
the County Court established by this Consti>
tuition. After the roformations, notifications
or alterations Gin the County Court established
by this Constitution" have been made by the
Legislature, the work is then submitted to the
people Of the county for their ratification
The people declared on the 22nd of last month
that they wanted the County Court, and it
was therefore mistake in our Board of Su-
pervisors to provide for an election to ascer~
tain whether the people desire system which
they have already deliberately adopted.

UN FAIR.

The editor of the Martnsburg Statesman is III a
terrible stew" because Meesrs. Green and Brooke
OF Charlestown. part of the delegation to the let
Congressional Convention from this county, cast
their votes in favor of MIR. Martin instead of Mr.
Faulkner. of Berkeley. These gentlemen yet re-
member that a portion of the Berkeley delegation
"went back" on Mr.. Travers at the ParkeTsburr
Convention, for Judge of the Court of Appeals and
Charlestown thought that she would now pay Mar
tinsburg back Sin her coin.'' .'Tit for tar
you know, Shtpherdstown Register.
The above is great injustice to the four gen.
tlemen from Charlestown who, in contest be.
tween Messrs. Faulkner and Martin, in the
Convention, voted for the latter. They pre-
ferred Mr.. Martin because they believed that
he would better consolidate the party than
Mr.. Faulkner. They were not Influenced in
the slightest degree by personal prejudice
against the latter gentleman, nor BY any res
tai'atory spirit towards Martinsburg for having
'gone back on" MIR. Travers at the Parkerse
burg Convention.

CONSISTENCY,

As the Free Press seems to have become
unmindful of tho friendly advice given by it
to this journal on recent occasion, or at least
utterly fails to practice what it has preached !;
We present, as little reminder, the following
clippings from the Free Press of the Doth of
June, 1872:
ITO this day the nominees of the Senate
rial Convention which met at Martinsburg
are by the Spirit ignored. What would that
Journal think if the Press now bearing at the
masthead the names of the nominees of State
and District Conventions should, in the event
of the success of Mr.. Lucas in Convention,
like the Spirit practically bolt by persistent
ly declining to do that which is customary
to place the name of the nominee conspicu,
ously in its columns ?"
eff the Spirit really means what it says"
&C., Kit should no longer hesitate to give sup>
port to the nominees of the Martinsburg Con.
vention, and not practically "bolt" by refusing
to unturl their names at the masthead, and
by constantly intimating that these nomina-
lions were the result of trickery."

pIa-HEADEp aENTLEMEN.

The harrisburg Statesman is SO much dis
gusted at the defeat of Mr.. Faulkner in the
Congressional Convention, that it permits itself
to indulge in language more than discourteous
to the STEW delegates from this portion Of the
district whose violent and senseless predju-
dices over rode al considerations of public
policy" when, in a contest between Mr.. Faux
ner and Mr.. Martin, the STEW delegates" be-
lieving their constituents preferred anybody
in the world to Mr.. Faulkner, cast their votes
for Mr. Martin. Now We will simply content
ourselves, with saying that, if the private char
acter of the"sfew delegates" be compared with
that of the delegates who voted for Mr.. Faulk-
ne-, the sew" will be found to represent
quite as much intelligence aud worth as can
be found among those who voted for Mr..
Faulkner. 1t is absurd to say, as the States
man does, that the "few," in preferring Mr.
Martin, were animated by any personal preju-
dice to Mr.. Faulkner. The "few" when COM
PEELED to select between the two candidates
before the Convention upon the last ballot,
cast their votes for Mr.. Martin, not only be-
cause of their utter and entire want of con-
fidence in the political character of Mr.. Faulk-
ner, but also because they felt convinced that,
if the latter gentleman received the nomina-
ton, the party nominee would be beaten in
this county by crushing majority against
him. There are many perfectly true men in
this county who would not, urder any COM
bination of circumstances that could possibly
arise, vote for Mr.. Faulkner for anything
The Statesman may think it unreasonable, or
q pity, that some of our mos. substantial,
honest and intelligent men have such strong
f'tpersonal prejudices" against its favorite
quoaaams candidate for Congress. But such
is the case, however lamentable it may be, and
the worst of it is, these same jaundiced gen.
tlemen will persist in thinking they have a
right to say whom they will vote for or against.
We know of no way Of compelling these
yellow>eyed, pig-headed sovereigns to enter
tain high regard for gentleman for whose
political character they have, with or without
reason, hearty repugnance. Such is their
radical, inherent ng-headeduess that it is
not probable that even the discourtesy of the
Statesman will make them regret that, if we
were obliged to have either Mr. Martin or Mr..
Faulkner, we have got Mr.. Martin.

STAND TO IT,

The Martinsburg Statesman in its issue Of
the End inst says 'sseveral gentlemen have
been named in connection with the position
(of member of Congress) among them the
Hon. G. j. Faulkner, Dan'l. B. Lucas, ESQ.
of Jefferson, Maj. o. D. Downey, of Mineral.
and MIR. Martin, of Marion. Either of these
gentlemen we will heartily support" &C.
That's good doctrine, for it shows that the
statesman, before the assembling of the Con-
vention at Grafton, felt that after the several
aspirants to the seat in Congress had regularly
submitted their claims to NOMINATING Com
vention, it was not only their duty but that of
their friends also to abide the result. OF
course the Statesman would not, before the
Convention, have pledged itself to abide by
the defeat Of its favorite Candidate if it had
notrecognized the fact that Conventions would
be worse than useless unless they are abided
by. But strange as it may seem, the States
man after having promised to support heartily
any one of the four gentlemen whom the Con-
ventlon should think proper to nominate, sud-
denly upon the defeat of its favorite aspirant
begins to talk of the evident and senseless
prejudices of a few individuals" from ten coun.
ties-only Is having sent delegates to the
Convention-who did not think it conducive
to party organization to vote for Mr.. Faulk>
ner, and of the utter 'sselfshness of the west,
ern counties in their greed for Office" and of
"spoiling the broth, =" in way which indicates
= desire to "bolt"
Now Mr.. Statesman you said, before the
Convention, that you would heartily support
any one of the four gentlemen who should be
SO fortunate as to receive the nomination.
Stick to your word. Trans-Alleghany would
have nominated Mr.. Faulkner for you, but
delegates from every county represented in
the Convention, East of the Allegheny, Berke-
ley excepted, earnestly protested. WHY
should Trans-Alleghany insist upon doing for
East Allegheny what, considerable part of
East Allegheny earnestly protested she didn't
want done?
