Aged and experienced politicians
tell us that the evil and injury re-
sulting from the incorporate use Of
whisky can not be eradicated, and
that the most that can be done in
that direction, is to regulate the sale
of all Intoxicating drinks by strin-

John Z. Kenna for Congress.

Editor Courier
When | name John E. Kenna in
connection with the nomination for
Congress, do a thing that will meet
with a response all over this district.
Mr.. Kenna's political history is above
reproach. Raised here in our midst.
a self-madc man, he has endearcd
himself to this whole District by his
manly and excellent course. His
gallant fight for the Democratic tick
ct in 1872 at the hazard of his own
election, and in the face of an over
whelming majority; his triumphant
election as Prosecuting Attorney, and
the splendid way in which he has 50
successfully acquitted himsolfin that
office; the magnificent vote he recciS-
ed in the last Congressional Conven,
ton, and above all his generous, man
ly and noble course in that Coven-
ton, with which everybody is famil-
iar; his force and ability rs q speak
err; his knowledge Of the wants and
necessities of the people of this dis
trict acquired by an intimate associ-
alton with them, and his talents
ability and energy to carry to com
pletion any plan undertaken for their
benefit; and his generous, open and
liberal heart, are qualities which press
him upon the Third District for Con-
gress.
The private history of John E.
Kenna is equal to his political. He
commenced among us boy, orphan
ed and without means. He stands
now man, honest, true and worthy
of trust. The loud acclamations of
the last Convention in his praise will
be re-echoed in the coming one, and
this District will honor itself in hon
oring John L. Kenna of Kanawha,-
The position is due him for his mag
unanimous course in the last Conven-
ton, and if the feeling of this county
has any significance he will be elect
cd. The people are for Kenna.

We clip the following from the
Washington correspondence Of the
Grecnbrier Independents
Mr.. Hereford has introduced bill,
providing for an appropriation of ST.
100000, to the continuation of the
improvement Of the Great Kanawha
river, for which he has received the
recommendation Of the Secretary Of
War, and, from all indications, we
feel confident that the amount, or a
very large proportion of it, will be
appropriated. Independently of the
vast benefits which must enurc to
our people, by a thorough improve
mcnt of this river, 50 as to render it
navigablc, at all seasons, from its
head to its mouth, the expenditure
of this large amount of money, in
your District, will serve greatly to
relieve our people from the financial
cmbarassmcnts now prevailing.
Last year, Mr.. Hereford and his
coadjutors, secured for this improve
mcnt, s3OOOOO which was the larg-
est appropriation made to any river
in the United States, save the Fox
and Wisconsin rivers, which roceiy-
jointly, 100000; the Mississippi,
Missouri and Arkansas rivers, which
jointly, received 1878, 900; Dcs Moincs
Rapids of the Mississippi river, which
received SISO,OO0 and the Tennessee
river, upper and lower, 100000,
This year, the Secretary of War
recommends for this improvement a
greater amount than for any other
improvement, save for the Mississip-
pi river, between the mouths of the
Illinois and Ohio rivers, for which he
asks an appropriation Of sl0500O0
In addition to this improvement,
Mr.. Hereford has introduced bills for
the improvement Of various other
rivers in this district, and has joined
hands with General Terry, of Vir.
ginio, urging the improvement OF
New River with fair prospects OF
success, so that the running Of steam.

Shall the Democracy Of Mason
Have u Convention, or II Pri-
mary Election?

This is a question frequently ask
ed us by our party friends, and much
discussed by those having the good
of the party at heart. We are free
to confess that as yet @e nave been
unable to fully make up our mind as
to which will be conducive to the
most good and harmony, Both the
Convention and the primary cleo
ton, have special advantages that is
not peculiar to the other. Each, al
so, has its advocates. The advanta.
ges and peculiaritics of the one over
the otherS we do not at this time pro
pose to discuss, or to express any in.
diyidual preference for either plan;
our purpose being solely to make a
simple proposition, with the hope
that it may lead to discussion through
our columns, and thus afford all in.
tercstcd more light upon the subject,
Our proposition is this: Let the Coun.
ty Executive Committee call a Mass
Convention of the party at an early
day; say at the April term of the
Circuit Court, for the purpose of dis.
cussing the propriety of either call,
ing a Delegate County Convention
or holding a primary election, for the
nomination of county candidates.
Here the matter, We think, can be
freely and fully discussed and the
problem satisfactorily solved by the
body of the party, and a heavy re,
sponsibility shifted from the shoul,
dcrs of the Executive Committee
At the same time we believe this
course would lead to harmony and
unity of action, upon which our sue,
cess in this county depends, We
want no boiling and independent
candidates; but square front and a
straight fight. With this, success is
an assured fact Let us hear the
views of our friends in the different
sections of the county, upon the
above proposed plan, and see if we
cannot agree upon it; or, if any one
has anything better to offer, let US
have it. It is time we were setting
our house in order, to be ready for
