had not said anything on the question"
We should say SO too. 1t certainly
would have been better for Jake had he
not touched on the question, seeing that
when no was pinned down to the scratch
no was afraid to tell how he voted.
John E. Kenna, however, was not so
prudent as Jake when he made his Mercer
county speech, and let thecatoutotthe bag
as TO how Jake had been truetoC Charleston
on the sly-while making the Clarksburg
people believe that he wOs friendly to
them. We quote from Kennas remarks
as follows:
at is true that Mr.. jackson voted to re-
move the Capital from Charleston. Il Is
also true that he voted TO relocate 1t a.
Clarksburg. But in voting to remove II
he knew that he was giving his own town
an even chance with every other When
permapent location should be made. But
when the bill was passed conhning the
choice To three points-Olarksburg, Mar
tinsburp and Charleston, personally
know that his sympathies were with Char.
lesion against the other points, and
he only Voted for Olarksburg because TO
vo,s for Charleston after having voted Tor
removal from there would have been to
stnItify himself. / was in the county dur.
ing the Capital campaign. st1mped 1t
for Charleston. He counseled and encour,,
aged his people to attend our meetings and
vote with us. Through hispersonal inhu-
ence Charleston meetings were gotten up
throughout Wood county. That in Par
kersburg was attended by more than q
thousand persons. To him more than any
other man is due thevote OF Wood county
in favoroi Charleston
In view Of this revelation on the part Of
Kenna it is no wonder that Jake felt
somewhat embarrassed by the question
sent up TO him. 1t would not do for him
to endorse that explanation, and OF course
1t would not do for him TO deny it. So
the only thing left was to retreat
Upon The whole, we think it would have
been better for Jacob had he toted fair on
the Capital question. People do not adj
