war. How we rejoice when We read OF
those noble men at Washington. The
Democrats, to a man, are working for q
reform. We are living in the hope that
the Radicals will nominate Grant for
President, as they have not q man in
their ranksthat would be as easy to de-
feat as Grant. His race is about run,
and so is the life of the Radical Dynasty.
Morton and Blaine, in our opinion, will
run but poorly if they adhere to their
bloody shirt principles. We would not
have them change their platform for the
sake of being elected. Stick to your prih-
ciples is our advice. We are in favor OF
West Virginia having a place upon the
National ticket, and would propose Sen
otor Henry g. Davis for Vice-President.
With Hendricks for President and Davis
tor Vice-President we could gain an easy
victory. Thurman is as good. if not bet
ter, than Hendricks, and we believe ne
is more popular at present. All we
want is good man, and the victory is
ours. Men of bloody shirt principles
are the ones to lead our enemies, but no
true Democrat can follow such standard.
Our forces were first organized by Thos.
Jefferson; theirs by the duelist Alexan-
der Hamilton, of Aaron Burr renown.
Mr. Editor, do you remember the long
and animated debate in the convention
that framed our constitution? Thomas
jefferson and his followers were in favor
of liberal and free governments
to be ruled by the people. The
other SIDE headed by Alexander Hamil-
ton, were in favor of strong govern
ment, as they termed it, but which meant
monarchal and tyranical government.
The Hamilton spirit and doctrines are ad-
vocated by the RAIDS of to-day with more
vehemence than ever before. They cry
for third-term royal soldiers, royal
family ard such like; but then it is in
them, and poor things, they cannot help
it.
We have a senator from the First dis
trlct to elect, and Brooke is entitled to
the choice We would suggest DR.. j. NJ.
Cooper, of Wellsburg, for that position.
We do not know that he would accept 1t,
but if he would we feel confident that he
would meet the appreciation of the voting
element in the district.
Grant Is happy. So is his crooked
whisky friend, Babcock; but what say
you do the tax payers think Of the ac-
auittal of Bah? If he can defraud the
people and be exalted to the skies why
cannot the rest of Grants friends, all
over the country, do the same or worse?
Thank Heaven, C;esNrism (Grantism) has
killed itself. JACK Roe.

1t is of infinite importantance that
we should have first class lawyers on the
Supreme Bench. The people at large
have little idea how much money is saw
ed to them by having the laws fixed and
settled; and the better the court the more
certain the law. 1t is an old saying that
The is the best lawyer who keeps his
clients out of the court house and it is
equally true, that bad judge makes It'll
CATION. Ignorance breeds more litigation
than Iascality.
Upon several subjects, which are en-
tirely beyond the reach Of legislation, our
law is terribly confused and unsettled,
flor example, the law regulating the
property of married women,) and unless
we have intelligent, educated and capable,
Judges, in a few years wewill be harrassed
with the most distressing litigation.
The mistaken economy OF the Con-
vention put the salary Of judges down
so low that very few lawyers who are
qualified for the place can afford
to accept the office. 1t will do
very we'll for a bachelor, or man who
has an income outside of his profession,
but the salary will not support family,
and several of the best lawyers IN the
State, on this account, positively refuse
to be candidates.
Hence, it is not unlikely that we are
going to have trouble to obtain compe-
tent court. There are plenty OF aspirsnts,
but this is the most important and re-
sponsble office within the gift Of the
people, and we want the very best mon
in the State.
We must have men Of irreproachao!e
private character, of personal dignity,
and of education, learning anc experience
in their profession. If we make mis-
take and put on the bench an inccmpe-
tent man, we will be cursed with his
blunders for twelve years to come; and
the more incompetent the Judge, the less
likely he is to resign.
The present bench has given entire
satisfaction. Judge Raymond, Of course,
will be reelected by acclama'
ton. Fortunately for US, Judge
Moore has eight years OF ms
term to serve Judge Hoiiman's
health has improved so much that his
friends expect to induce him to accept
nomination. He is acknowledged to
be the best land lawyer in the State, and
he can render the people invaluable SER
vice. These gentlemen have been
thoroughly tested and tried, and have
proven themselves capable and honest.
There still remains "A vacancy, and we
suggest Judge Brannon of Weston. lie
is we'll known in the State as profound
LAWYER of great industry and unquestion-
ed ability. Besides this, he is gentle
man Of personal dignity, and AS Circuit
Judge. has proven himself worthy the
highest honors OF his profession.
This letter is written with an eye SIN
gle to obtaining good court. We are
informed by persons competent to Judge
and who have had opportunity to form
an opinion; we are informed by lawyers
of the highest standing, who have prac-
ticed with him at the bar and before him
as Judge that Mr.. Brannon not only
would probably be the most useful men,
Der of the court, but an ornament to our
Bench. We trust this suggestion Will
be favoraDly received. LAWYER.
