From the Martinsburg independently
FROM JEFFERSON COUNTY.

The announcement of Chas. Davies,
Esq of Harper's Ferry, as an indePen-
dent candidate for the Senate tor the
counties Of Morgan, Berkeley and JEFF
ferson, is not only warmly received
here, but with the greatest enthusiasm
through the whole district. Mr. Davies
only became a candidate on being urged
to do so, by large numbers of people OF
all parties, who are sick and tired OF
the doings of ''particular political par
ties, and who desire free and untram-
mcled representatives in the Leglsla-
turc; and believing Mr.. Davies to. be
inst such a man, they insisted on his
taking the field. Mr.. Davies is very
much of a gentleman-is courteous and
affable to all who come in contact with
him, while his well-known legal ability
prominently fits him for the position
of State S Senator | may remark, that
Mr.. Davies opposition to the county
court, at a time, when opposition was
not popular, is proof positive, that pro
tossional affiliations are not sufficiently
strong, to induce him to favor system
injurious to the interests Of the people.
Politically, Mr.. Davies has never
been an extremist but on the contrary,
has always taken a fair and calm view
of all political issues: at all times APP
plauding the right and condemning the
evil. The people of the district can
rest assured of one thing if they elect
Mr.. Davies, and that is, that all his
talent and capacity, will be devoted to
such Legislation as shall tend TO benefit
the entire people Of the district and
State.
We think the time has come for peo-
pie to look to the "indiyiduaP' more,
and TO the ''party' less, for whom, and
for which they cast their vote. Party
promises are made Of pie-crust, but per
sonal talents and integrity may always
be relied on. B.

it was as an independent Wing candl-

For .Shepherdstowa Register.

The Rey. George r. Entler, Ph. d.
a congregational minister, and formerly
Professor Of the German Language and
Literature, in the Franklin Delaware
Literary Institute, of New York, is en-
gagged on a translation of Professor
Scholten's "History Of Religion and
Philosophy" This work has been
translated into French by NJ. Reyille,
pastor Of the NValloon Church i'll Am
sterdam, and into German by Dir, Red
opening, OF Eberfeld, Germany, and in
Holland has reached the third edition.
1t is used rs a tsxt book in the Uniyer
sity of Leyden. n translation of the
first part has appeared in the Religious
.Nogazine of Boston, in November
and December, 1900 under the title,
"a Comparative view of Religion.
The second part, the History Of Phl!os-
ophy is much fuller, AS summary
and general view of the religions and
PHILOSOPHERS of the world, this work is
remarkable at once for its compactness
and its clearness, and for its learning,
originality AMI power. We hope that
DR.. Entler will meet with sufficient
sympathy and encouragement to induce
him to complete his work and enable
him to publish it.
Extract from the Boston Christian
Register
Oswego. Sept. l2-To the Editor of
the Utica Morning Herald-The Oswe-
90 Congregational Association held It's
autumnal sessions with the church in
Orwell on the 9th and 10th. The Rev.
DIR. George II. Entler, of Franklin, n.
Y, read a critocoethical comment on
Philippians ". CT. This paper eXhib-
tied Great learning. The writer laid
under contribution the Greek classical
authors and the Latin and Greek faith
ers, setting forth what he regarded as
the true meaning of the above passages.
He combated some Of the ancient YER
sions, especially the Syriac and the Lat
in vulgate, and the views of Thcodoret
and Augustine and some of the German
commentators. After developing the
true doctrine, the writer presented a
very novel and yet natural plan for a
sermon from the above. Both the essay
and the plan received the highest com
mendalion from all the members OF the
association. DR.. Entler is well read in
the Oriental, in the Greek, Latin and
the modern languages. He has spent
some considerable time in Germany in
the study of Arabic, Sanskrit and phi
lology in general. We would like to
see him fill professors chair IN one OF
our higher institutions of learning.

H" County OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Presidents of the Boards OF Education
met in Charlestown on the 2nd instant,
to fill the vacancy occasioped by the
RESIGNATION of VIM. L. Wilson, Esq, as
County Superintendent of Free Schools,
After twenty ballots DR., a. Ilnsley' oil
this place. was elected. Intermediates
,voro John Hess. Rev. J. w. Tongue
and DR.. Tinsley. The selection is a
rood one, and we congratulate the PEG
ple of the County upon the choice OF so
worthy a successor to Mr.. Wilson.
DIR. Tinsley is native OF Virginia,
and is eminently qualified for the posi-
ton he is called to fill. He was stu
dent at Hampden Sidney, a graduate of
William and Mary College and OF the
University Of Virginia, and obtained
his professional education al the New
York University, and was Surgeon in
the l.. S. service before the war. His
competitors were worthy gentlemen,
and the Board could not have gone
amiss in electing either of them. AS 1t
is, they have doubtless chosen a good
man.

s1The Wheeling Register, is well
known as the organ of the Democratic
party of West Virginia, and in its issue
of September 90, 1874, we find the
following
While all admit the brilliant talent OF
Mr.. Faulkner, his energy and many su-
perior qualifications, yet 1t must be adj
mitted that he is a little Inconsistent.
He is not man to awaken much en-
thusiasm. He belongs to class OF pol
iticians of an older and it may be a
better school than that Of the present
day. His political ideas were moulded
in that school, and it is fact that how
ever flexible ones ideas may be, and
Mr.. Faulkner's politics are flexible
enough to suit any one, that once firmly
matrred, it is impossible to adapt them
to more modern growth. For that
reason Younger man would have wlel-
ded more influence in Congress than all
the Faulkners in the South. The case
of Mr. Stephens, OF Georgia, Is far
illustration of this truth. y better man,
a sounder politician and purer patriot
than Alexander II. Stephens does not
live, and yet more inefficient represen-
tatiye did not hold a seat in the last
Congress. 1t was from the fact that he
could not adapt himself to the modern
progressive politics OF this day. For
these reasons, and perhaps others as
potent, we are inclined to think that a
mistake was made in nominating Mr.
Faulkner.

dorsing Hon. A. r. Boteler. | know a
goodly number who like myself feel
proud of him, and although not clamor-
Gus, will quietly cast their votes tor him
on the 18th instant. 1t is well known
in this section of Jefferson that Mr..
Faulkner was ashamed or rather dis
owned the Southern cause, which so
many of us fought and bled for. lie
was also active in electing L. B. Hall
Judge over Edmund Pendleton. lie
was permitted to practice his profession
when other attorneys were disqualified.
| ask was he not in sympathy at that
time With the Republican party and
how maryellouSly strange now to be the
Democratic nominee for Congress.
Democrats, Republicans, Confederate
soldiers and old line Wings, ponder
well this subject, and l imagine most Of
YOU like myself, will vote for Boteler.

lions e the county of Jefferson on last
Friday, and was signed by consldera-
ble number of our citizens:
TO the Worshipful County Court OF
Jefferson County. undersigned
citizens of Jefferson county respectfully
petition your Honorable Court that the
question of change in the present
County Court system for TINS ooun'y

(the said counties to share the expense
of the said organization equally may
be submitted to the action OF the voters
of this county at the coming general
election on the 18th day OF October

1t was intended that this petition
should be presented TO the County
Court OH last Saturday, but it adjourned
unexpectedly on Friday, and no action
was taken by that body on the subject
of taking the sense of the people on the
proposed subject. The petitioners pro

nrinted or written on each ticket voted
For the present plan of the County

pose to ask the County Court nj lis

proposed plan contemplates union Of
Jefferson and Berkeley counties in a
judicial organization, it is suggested
that the voters OF Berkeley county, IN
like manner, express their wishes at the
