The Red Men.

The papers of Marion and Wetzel
counties are coming down on the
Red Men and calling upon the au-
thorities to ferret them out and pun
ish them as they deserve and stamp
such lawlessness from existence.
Their organization is not countenan-
ced by the best citizens as the follow
ing article from the Wetzel Demo
crdt will show: "We had, last week
a civil prosecution against number
of citizens, tried in our Circuit Court
An abb having been proved beyond
a question, the jury very properly
(for they could do nothing else) rem
dered verdict of not guilty. But
that verdict was far from being an
expression of any opinion favorable
to such lawless demonstrations as
have been taking place in our coun-
ty. 1t matters not who engages
in it, these midnight raids are
demoralizing to a community and
disreputable to a participant.
1t is nothing to brag of now, and
as the years go by, it will be some :
thing to be ashamed of, something to
repent of in sack-cloth and ashee.
And the parties, whoever they may
have been, who some time since per-
petrated the outrage on old Mrs. Sill
der, woman seventy years Of age,
deserve to go to the penitentiary.
They are bad and dangerous citizens
and should be punished as any other
criminals are punished. These out
RACES are the very things which the
Red Men should prevent. To see that
the laws are executed and enforced,
TO aid the Government and our au-
thorities in establishing a reign of
law and order, are the duties of every
citizen, let him be red, or white, or
black

thing, the crowd, the oysters, the ice
cream, the pretty girls, the music,
&c, &c. Prof Mestrezat, of Nor
gantown was present and rendered,
in fine style, several solos on the cor

with great skill. The festival will

Mr.. j. M. Kern informed us yes
terday that he had considerable
quantity of ice in his ice house that
he was willing to give to any of his
old customers, when needed, free of
charge. 1t is not likely any will be
needed, but still this is generous
offer and if any should be required
it will quickly be accepted. Mr..
Kern is making preparation to store
very large amount of ice this win
ter and will again be ready to supply
his friends with that almost inds-
pensible luxury next summer.

war. We will have to excuse him
this time, but if he ever comes to

us we wont leave whole bone in
his body when we catch him.

LoANING NEwsPAPERs.-No one
likes to lone his newspaper, while
few scruple about borrowing one.
The first feeling is natural. We like
to enjoy whatever we purchase, and
as a general rule we are asked to loan
a newspaper just as we desire to per-
sue it. 1t is very wrong, and should
be repressed in some way or other.
And this being attained good would
be done to the honest buyer, and the
newspapers circulation would be ma
terially increased. We think it is
certain that each copy of the New
DOMINION is read by no less than five
persons. 1t is sometimes jointly sub
scribed for by two persons, each OF
whose families read it and then
lend it to their neighbors, when the
fact is, that each party and each
neighbor is able to subscribe for his
own copy. A man will hesitate to
borrow a dollar, or coat, or any
thing-but newspaper counts as
nothing, and its use is asked with
out hesitation. A man ought 10 re-
serve his newspaper for his own and
his family's use, as he would an, =
thing else which he prizes, and re-
fusal to part with it on every occa
sion has no right to be deemed near,
or stingy. If every one who reads
the New DOMINION would pay for its
use its circulation would be quadru-
pied within two weeks.

October DIST, 1879.

No CATTLE FROM CHICAGO THIS
TrME.-It is customary for our large
graziers to 60 to Chicago late in the
Fall to buy stock cattle. In CONVEX
sation with the Lazzcll boys and 9th
ers lately, we learned that SO far not
a man intended to do so this time as
none of them had feed enough to keep
one half their usual quota this win
ter. While this may depress the cat
tie business here somewhat it will al
low small operators to sell all their cat
tie at home. In the most prosperous
season West Virginia should produce
enough young cattle to supply all
our g:aziers with all the cattle they
can pasture. This would keep many
thousands of dollars at home that go
to Chicago every year to pay for cat
tie. A little more enterprise on the
part Of our farmers would accomplish
this, would Gil their purses, relieve
them of mortgages, enrich the coun-
ty and in fact would add ten fold to
the prosperity Of all.

The State Democratic Beyond
Doubt for 1880.
THE DEMOCRATIC STATE
TICK EFT ALL ELECTED EN-.
CEPT GOVERNOR.
Cornell. If Elected mt all. by "a
Small Majority over NV o DEM
Ocratic Candid n ties.

The result in New York is spe-
cially gratifying to the Democrats, as
the Democratic vote was almost
double that of the Republicans. The
split on Governor probably elects
Cornell, the Republic candidate, but
still the State ticket, with that ex
ception, is elected by a large major
ity. This insures New York fol
1880, and the election Of the next
President.
