Hon. John II. IkeuIl;i.
This gentleman has again been re-
nominated blythe Democratic party,
for Representative in Congress from
the Third District of West Virginia,
for a third TERN. We promise to
him our most hearty support. Du-
ring his two terms in Congress he
has made a record that every Demo
crat lii the State can point to with
pride. Being among the youngest
members in the last Congress, he has
proven himselfthe peer of any mem-
Der in the House, and was placed BY
Speaker Randall upon the Commit
tee Of Commerce, the most important
Committee in the House. He has
always been faithful to the interests
of this District, as the large appro-
priations for the improvement of'our
rivers and the government building
at Charleston, will attest. He is
now in a position to do our State and
District much greater good. 1t is
now the duty of every Democrat 70
giyehim their support and influence
Let US return him by an increased
MINORITY We think &escan geafely
promise Mason county to him, this
time.
Somebody has been to the pains Of
telling that We wanted Mr.. Hutchin-
son put off the Republican ticket.
We didn't want any such Il thing;
our work got him on the ticket, and
We shall stick to him first last and
| all the time. We did say that if the
report that he had written an apollo.
gv to Tippettfor the letter in the
Tiiblnc.h Monitor was true all would
not support him; but he did not do it,
and will not. 1ri5uae-Monitor.

Suppose you call at our Office, when
In town, and we will take pleasure in
showing you the letter of Mr.. Hutch
inson TO u.s. in which he "regrets"
the publication Of the article in the
Tribune Monitor, and In which letter
he says: "And if now after calm re-
Election | could recall my reply, j
woulddo SO, and not say single word
in return; and further he says; 81
don't intend to enter into any per.
sonal matters nor will / be drawn
into any personal controversy" We
might make more extracts from his
letter Of the same import, but this
will suffice to show and prove TO
the editors of the Clifton paper, that
such a letter is in our possession,
written to US by Mr.. hutchinson,
from Mason City and dated July
18th, 1880" We did not intend to
use his letter in the canvass, but as.
the Gibbons have seen fit TO make a
denial of it, we thought nothing
wrong in showing them and the pub.
lie that we have the letter. Those
who want to read itcan do sol by call
ingat this office. We answered the
letter, by mail, and ifthe editors of
the Tribune desire to read our letter
to him and extract from it, they can
call upon Mr.. Hutchinson, who no
doubt willshow it to them, and give
them the privilege. We are satisfied
Mr.. Hutchinson never wrote the let
ter in the Tribune Monitor, and that
is the opinion of most Of the people
in this place, and throughout the
county. We say now, without hest
tation, that We believe it was written
by one of she Gibbons, and thsss IN
their zeal to put Mr.. Hutchinson
right they have oversteppod the
bounds Of decency, and put Mr.. H.
in worse light than be was before
Tits publication.
B. J. Redmond will be tie next
Sheriff, in spite Of court house rings
or their paid allies. Tribune Monit6rs
That is right keep your courage
up by whistling. You know Bed.
fnond will be the hindmost man in
the race for Sheriff. twill be about
as follows: Hanlcy first, Newman
SECOND, and Redmond distanced 80
badly that he will deny that he was
ever entered in the race.
Since the Democratic party obtain
ed control of Congress the soldiers Of
the Union have Jared better at its
hands than during all the time Re.
