THE FIRE FIEND.
A BIG CONFEDERATION
The Continental Hotel Sta
bIes Burned.
Nine Horses, Two Cows, Sew
eral Buggies and Carri-
ages and Harness
Destroyed. nri4l
The Firemen DO Go DID, w ork

Between the hours of twelve and
one O'Clock Thursday morning, the
Continental Hotel stables, located
ON Spring street, Immediately in
rear of the hotel was discovered to
be on fire, and the fire alarm was
sounded. The fremen were promptly
on the spot, but the inflammable ma
terial of the building and contents
was such that the fire spread RAPIDLY
and the entire structure was soon a
perfect sheet of flame. The iremen
soon bad several powerful streams of
water playing ON the burning build
ings, and by hard work succeeded in
combining the fire to the stables,
which were entirely consumed. The
adjacent buildings were saved by the
heroic work of the firemen, favored
by the calmness of the night. Had
there been strong or even an ordi-
nary wind blowing from any direc-
ton, it would have been almost i'm
possible for the fremen to have kept
the fire under control.
Nothing was saved from the build
ing. OF the nine horses burned, FIVE
were owned by Mr.. VIM. Rutledge,
proprietor of the Continental, in
GLIDING a valuable driving mare for
which he had recently refused $500.
He also lost two cows, carriage and
buggy and harness. Mr.. G. p. Mat
thaei, d. NJ. Shaffer, and DR.. S. N.
Myers each lost horse and carriage
and harness; also horcc belonging
to the Adams express company was
burned. Mr.. Rutledge's loss will
reach $1,000 or $500, on which
there was no insurance. The stables
were large and had been erected but
few years, and their loss falls upon
d. M. Shaffer & Bro. There was no
insurance on the buildings, and the
loss of d. M. Shaffer 81 Bro, will
probably reach 81 200 or 81 500. Mr..
d. We'll also lost a fine carriage and
harness.
The origin of the fire is not def
nitely known, although supposed by
some have been the work Of an in
cendiary.
The promptness and determined
action of the fremen saved the town
again from a disastrous confagra-
ton, for had the fire been commune
Gated to the adjacent residences by
which the stables were surrounded
on three sides, there is no telling
where it would have stopped.

In your issue of September 4th,
"Railroader" stated that he had
been informed that Senrtor Butler
had been favored for nomination be-
cause he is an anti-railroader. This
is a mistake. He was supported be-
cause he is reliable, faithful and
efficient legislator, fully identified
with all the interests of the people.
He is a large taxpayer, hence he
favors economy in the administra-
tion of State and county affairs. He
has always advocated low interest
on money as necessary to the pros
perity of the country, the success Of
business enterprises, the building of
railroads, the employment of me-
chanics and laborers at remunera-
tive wages. He has always been a
warm advocate of our free school
system. Mr.. Butler advocated and
voted for the county subscription to
the Shenandoah Valley railroad. He
considers railroads necessary to de-
velop the various interests of our
State, and only opposed to the b.
and o. railroad in discriminating
against West Virginia and in favor
of the products of other States. I
have learned that the b. and o. rail-
road company has reduced its
charges and is now dealing fairly
with our citizens. Jefferson county
has her competing line in the Shen-
andoah Valley, while Berkeley has
the Cumberland Valley, which Sc
cures low rates to both counties, SO
that Jefferson stands with Berkeley,
independent of the B. and 0. rail-
road. Our citizens have lost all in
terest in the railroad controversy,
and am sure that if there is any
contest in the legislature of 1881 it
must originate west of the 18th Sem
atorial District. hope you will do
Mr.. Butler justice by inserting this
article 10 your paper. We favor the
the nominees, Butler and Faulkner,
and think your attacks on Mr.. But
Ter will injure Mr.. Faulkner.

The COLUMNS on the Sth page,
containing matter favorable to the
Republican party, are paid for by
the Republican Executive Commit
tee. They very wisely, as we think,
concluded that they could best spend
their money in that way, as it era
bles them to reach nearly every voter
of all parties in the county. We do
not publish an "organ." The col
umns of the INDEPENDENT are
open to all parties. If the Demo-
Gratis or Greenbackers desire space
same as the Republicans, furnish
and be responsible for the matter
published in it, they can contract
for it at any time. If they choose
not to spend their campaign money
in that way, it is their fault and not
ours if they fail to reach the people.
