The committee Is Of opinion thBt II will be I'm
practicable to avoid holding two Conventions, and
that the purposes Of this Convention arc not oi
sufficient importance TO Justify calling for large
county delegations and therefore suggests that each
county will send FIVE dcegntes--ihese delegates 10
be appointed by the County Executive Committee,
or by County Convention, as such committee may
deem expedlcnt. II Is proposed TO call another
Convention during the summer, at which the COu-

who are In favor Of making such changes In our
lava as time and experience have shown necessary:

We have not heard from the subscrip
ton paper started about the time the
town voted $4,000, and can not say as
TO how the people feed in regard to indi'
vidual subscriptions. Quite a number
put in all they could spare under the old
management. Some paid and some did
not. Whether any further subscriptions
from one share uP, could be obtained at
present we are not prepared to say, but
think that il is worth the trial. II the
right man is selected for the task, in
whom the people have confidence, and
who can satisfactorily explain away all
doubts rs TO the proper use OF the funds
when paid in, something may be done.
The county and town have done nObly
in taxing themselves in the behalf Of this
road, and large majority are anxious
for the final success Of the enterprise.
We have full faith in the integrity and
ability Of the gentlemen who are now so
zealOusly engaged in the work, and fully
satisfied that il there is any finish 10 it,
they can and will accomplish il, il they
have the necessary support. In this We
think we are speaking the sentiments Of
most people.

the waters Of Cross Creek, and while
walking the mill dam yonng Briggs was
carrying his gnn in his right hand. muz-
zle up, the butt touching the wall, the gun
slipped and the hammer striking the
stone caused discharge, which struck
him in the left hand between the wrist
and little finger, passing out through the
ileshy part between the thumb and wrist.
Several shot lodged in the side Of his
head. DR.. Werlich was summoned and
dressed the wounds, which ut present are
not considered Of dangerous character.

Another Ticket Suggested.

| I.ulAllH VI ANC lHltllththttls
The approaching State campaign will
no doubt be Que Of the most exciting and
vigorous in the history Of our State.
The Republicans are hopeful, the DEM
ocrais sanguine. The latter depend upon
their maOrilies two years ago, consider
ing them almost il not quite overwhelm-
ing. The Republicans rely upon the
Justice OF their cause, the common sense
Of the people, and the errors Of the DEM
ocraiic party during their reign in this
State. When the Republican party had
control Of the State they placed men in
office who proved faithful to their trust.
We had no AuliiOrs or Treasurers con.
trolling the finances OF the State who
compelled bmks to pay their "rent ni
farm" or other bonus in order 10 secure
their lair proportion of the State depu'.
it+. With such ticket as the following,
the Republicans would be almost certain
OF success:
For GOrrnor-Gen. y. GotT, jr, Of IIar.
risOn.
For .luiior -tieo. ". Atkinson, Of
.kanawha.
: For Trsasursr-C. NJ. Shinn, Of Marion.

Crago, Of Marshall.
Judges Of Court of APptais-C. W. B.
Allison, OF Ohio; Ward II. Lamon, OF
Berkeley; X. S. Brown, oi Jackson.
Gen. Gofi, though comparatively
young man, il no doubt the ablest man in
the State. Give him time TO canvass the
State and he would lin the language OF
Gen., CuSter) "run like a steer" The
rest OF the ticket il well distributed
through the State, aud they are all men Of
the highest standing. For Attorney Cen
eEal better selection could not be made
than r. II. Freer, Of Kanawha county.
He is young man OF ability and integ-
rity, fine lawyer and q splendid speaker.
lie served one term Us Prosecuting At
torney Of Kanawha county. and Is at
present L. S. Counsul TO Nicaragua,
though now at home on leave Of absence.
lie would poll Il larger vote in the Third
District than any other man in the party,
and il elected would fill the Office with |
credit to himself and honor to the State.
Prof. Crago, formerly Principal OF the
State Normal School at West Liberty, is
an educator OF large experience and
would make All excellent State Superin.
Icndent. The gentlemen named as Judges
Of the Court Of Appeals are too well
known to need any recommendation from
ME. With such State ticket as this
aud Gov. Hayes, OF Ohio, the nominee
for President, West Virginia could once
more be placed upon the roll OF Republic |
