Hon. Frank. Hereford.

The Gallipolis Bulletin pays the
following tribute to the worth of our
Representative in Congress!
a warm contest is going on in our
neighboring District in West Virgin
ia, for the Democratic nomination for
Congress. While We do not propose
to interfere in matters concerning
our neighbors, yet we cannot forbcar
calling attention to the able manner
in which Hon. Frank Hereford has
represented the District. Through
his personal efforts in the last Con
gress he secured S350,0O0 for the ben
fit of his District; and at the pres
cnt session he has succeeded in hay
ing appropriations made (the bill has
passed the House, as follows For
the Kanawha River, 100000 Elk
$4,000; Big Sandy, $4,000; New Riv-
or, $4,000; total of $4,000; which
added to the sum appropriated at the
last Congress, makes a grand total of
$4,000, The services of Mr., II. in
this particular will be appreciated
when it is remembered that he has
secured the first appropriation ever
made for this District, although it
