Col. Wilson's Candidacy.
The Gilmerite.

The Giimcrite.
Notice of Col. Wilson's candidacy for
Congress appears elsewhere in this pa
per. While we never were an admlrer
of Mr.. Wilson as a man, We always rec
Ognized his ability, and since we visited
him in Washington and saw the work
he does and the intiuenc he exerts
there, and have observed how carefully
he works for the interests OF this region,
we are by mere honesty, ii nothing
more, constrained TO say that there Is
not another man IN the First Congress
ional District who either can or will
serve the people OF the Little kanawha
valley as well as he has done and will
do. Ii takes several years for a man TO
gain prominence and leading influence
in Congress, no matter how smart he
may be. Col. Wilson has attained a
commanding influence already, and 1t
would be the height OF fOolishness for
us to send a new man there and loose
all this valuable prestige. Bayard,
Thurman, Sumner, Garfield, and others
whose names are hOnored and feared
all over the United States, rose to prom
inence by being long in Congress.
We would be for Hon. George Il.
Jingle OF Wheeling, il he lived out OF
the Panhandle and Col. Wilson was
not a candidate; but while either Mr..
Campbell or Mr.. Tingle has enough
ability, it will be Il new departure II
they Tor any man from there recog-
nize our wants. They call us, in fun,
sand diggers' and ''haw eaters and
think that our interests are not equal to
the interests Of that region. Give us
Wilson once more.

sinIess Sabbath Breaking.

The famous author of "John Halifax
recently has written an article i'll favor
Of what she terms 'sinless Sabbath
breaking" That there is an element OF
truth in what she says We believe.
Some good people render the Sabbath a
wearisome DAY to their households, in
stead OF causing il Ia be a r%estful, joyful
day OF sacred worship, pleasant family
intercourse, aud natural and genuine
spiritual growth. But the tendency 10
seculariIe the day is even more con-
mon, and, in this country at any rate,
needs To be guarded against. Her
phrase. 'sinless Sabbath-breaking, also
is a bad one, and illustrates how easily
people are led into adopting words
which have an episrammatic sound
even when their meaning, rs in this
case, can he nothing other than non
sense. "SinleSs sabbath breaking is
impossible. Ii there be s~inlessness, the
Sabbath is not broken. II the Sabbath
be broken, there must be- sin.

A Romantic Marriage.

Baltimore Morning Herald.
John Bradford and Julia Baker, a
l%ove-smitten couple from Occohannock,
Accomac county, Va, went to the
steamer Tangier's wharf, at Onancock,
on Wednesday last, asked to be taken
TO Snow Hill, Md where they could bc
married. The young man only had
seven dollars, while his would be wife
was absolutely without Il cent. The peo'
pie on the wharf, however. were deter.
mined to put the thing through, and 50
Mr.. Horace Brown, of Virginia, aud
others made up q purse Of a little over
ten dollars, with which the young couple
were presented and made happy. Then
they went on board, were taken TO
Snow Hill, and while standing in the
presence of half the town they were
made nan and wife. When the return
passage was paid for, they had but one
dollar to begin life with, but notwith'
standing this fact, the groom looked as
happy as a clam at high water, while
his blushing brides e~cstatic expression
would have satisfied the rawlings Of any
poet.

How Grant Expects to Win.

Baltimore Gazette.
II cannot be denied that the Grant
movement is ably and boldly en-
gineered. Wherever the votes are lack
ing-and they have been lacking o
than once-conventions are packed, the
will of the majority set at naught and
the machine mades to tnrn out the
necessary number OF manufactured del
egates. The tactics in our own State
and now in Illinois are Of exactly this
character. At Frederick the sentiment
OF the regular delegates was VIGOROUSLY
for Blaine, yet the Grant men captured
the convention by sheer atfrontery, and
il is said have fourteen out OF the six
teen votes at MARYLAND ut Chicago safe
ly buttoned up in their pockets. In IL
linois they have even gone further
than this. On entering the County
Convention at Chicago on Monday they
discovered that a large majority OF the
delegates were anti-Grant; so they quiz
city gave the signal and the Grant dele
gates picked up their hats and left the
hall, whence they proceeded to the
Palmer House and organized a conven-
ton OF their own. The delegates
chosen by this convention will be
smIggled or forced into the
State Convention beyond a doubt, and
no matter what the preferences OF the
Republicans OF the State, Grant will be
declared TO be the choice OF the party for
President. The National Convention
will be made up and handled after the
same simple recipe, and unless some
unforeseen contingency should arise
Gen. Grant will be rendered the nom
ination, although it must be perfectly
plain to everybody by this time that he
is the choice OF a minority OF the party
throughout the Union. Should he be
nominated, the same game OF bluff will
be tried in the campaign, but here the
third-term schemers will bring up
against the solid rock OF popular suffrage.
Their tactics will not avail at the polls.
For the first time they will be forced to
submit their candidates claims to the
people, and Democrats need have no
special anXieties as to the result.

Ex-Councillors Wanted.
Lewiston journal.

In his testimony before the investigating
committee on Friday, ex-Gov. Ga-celon on ex.
amining the returns, tabulations and report of
the Councils admitted that Fusion returns had
been corrected by somebody and improperly
counted by him, as charged; and that the
rules adopted by him had not been impartially
applied, in consequence of which Republicans
had been illegally and even fraudulently
counted out. When asked what he had to say
to this, he replied that he acted on the state
ments made to him by the Councillors who
canvassed the returns (Fogg, Brown, Foster
and Chase), whom he supposed honorable
men,; and himself knew nothing about any of
the things which are now apparent to m.
ASK the Councillors said the Ex-Governor,
if you want information as to their rascally
transactions.
What has Fogg to say to this charge that he
Hoodwinked" the Ex-Governor? What ex-
PLANTATION has Brown to make of the misrepre-
sentations which ex-Gov. G. brings to the doors
of the Council? What has Cap'n Chase, who
recently fought so nobly with the Ex-Governor
on the platform of Auburn Hall, to say to the
allegations that the Councillors kept from the
Governor all information of changes in returns
and tabulations, which the latter now admits
were made? What has Foster to say? Don't
all speak at once. But gentlemen ex-Council-
lors, ex-Gov. Garcelon on the witness stand,
with returns you counted before him, admits
there was rascality in manipulating them, says
he was imposed upon by you bids the commit
tee to inquire of you for further information;
and Cap'n Chase, Fogg, Brown and Foster, to
the front!
The Portland daily press., 1880-03-17

SPRINGFIELD Union: The more ex-Gov.
Garcelon's record in connection with the
Maine conspiracy is stirred, the more odor-
GUS it becomes. He don't like to be re-
garded as fraud, and takes the other horn
of the dilemma and acknowledges himself a
"natural-born fool" He was so child-like
and bland, so innocent and trustful, that he
allowed the most disgraceful trickery to be
