Editors of the Regieter.
In looking over the names of candl-
dates for State offices, we are struck
with the fact that so many OF our most
deserving men remain in the back.
ground, either because they are too modest
to push themselves forward in the politi-
cal arena, or believe with jefferson that
the office should seek the man and not
the man the office. Some of the names
suggested by friends of different aspirsnts
seem TO be selected more on account of
their real or pretended fealty TO party
than true merit. This has been the bane
of the Republic, and if persisted in must
eventually result in the total destruction
of our present form of government. Let
US Law aside all personal feelings and
self interests and select cur very best
men for State offices; men who have been
tried and are not found wanting. Men
who are wise and discrete; who will do
their whole duty TO their country. The
Republicans will make desperate effort to
carry West Virginia at the next election,
consequently we cannot afford to assume
any risks, by complimenting our friends,
because they are friends, IN the Charles
ton Convention. We must nominate
men who will be elected or we bad bet
ter make no nomination.
As the Third District has much the
largest Democratic majority she is justly
entitled TO another Judge of the Court
OF Appeals For this Office permit me,
without his knowledge to suggest the
name of the Hon. Ira J. McGinnis Of
Cabell county. Though he has often
been mentioned in connection with the
Supreme Bench as well as the Attorney
Generalship. he does not seek this
place. We knew him 10 the dark days
of civil war which tried mems souls.
He was q gallant soldier. always at his
post and ever ready to do his duty. We
know him at homes good and useful
citizen devoted to his profession. He Is
one Of the finest lawyers Of the State
and was one of the ablest members of
our State Senate Give him place on
the Supreme Bench and he will grace the
position with dignity and ability.

We are still moving along IN TINS
part of the state, though times are little
hard and money not SO plenty rs IT should
be. However we think that We have
seen tho worst of them and that we shall
90 on from worse to better from this time
forward unless our greenback friends
compel US to do it all over again. 1t
seems to US to be the height Of foolish.
ness to deluge the country with ire
deemable paper again, after the country
has been struggling for three years to
get down to hard money, and that now
there is a chance of succeeding. But the
infationists say we have gone far enough
in the direction of hard money.
That may be true if we never intend to
pay our debts, but if we do, we had bet
ter keep on till we pay them. What
would be thought of one of our steam
boat pilots, who, on coming to rapid in
our river, and finding that his boat
merely made Roadway against the swift
current, should, instead of putting on
more steam auu uOlQluS ucr W ~, toih
her nose clear around, and not only steam
back through that rapid, but half dozen
others which he had already past, it
seems to us that the verdict would be
non compos mentis, or else "drunk." 30
the good boat of redemption is slowly
making her way inch by inch against the
food tide of corruption and imitation.
Suppose the pilot turns her head the
other wav, or lets her drift with the cur
rent, where may we expect to land but
among the sloughs and mud banks of re.
pudition. In short we are in favor of
the good old Democratic doctrine of hard
money, and don't care how soon it comes.
Thurman seems to be the first choice of
our people generally, and if he's nomi-
mated at st. Louis, he will receive our
hearty support, as will any other good
Democrat.
We would suggest St. Marys as the
most suitable point for holding the Con-
gressional Convention if the place Is not
yet set; as it is easy of access, has plenty
OF accommodations, the people are
clever and the most of them good Demo.

will give them no cause to regret it, but
make them as comfortable as possible.

The movement in the sheep market
has also been to lower figures. The only
activity in operations has been with an
Eastern demand, which would not come
in except at much lower figures for
lambs, and sales have been confined very
largely to that class Of dealers. Prices
are still tending downward. We quote
