PnrtY Examination .

A party organization should be
kept pure and spotless. A white
ROBBED candidate cannot atone for the
wrongs and outrages commit
ted by the party that nominated
Kim. Mr.. Wilson is the President
and Principal Of West Virginia's
State University for the education
OF her children. His position de-
mands The strictest integrity. He
must not teach the young in his
charge to sustain fraud and chilean
cry even in politics. He must en-
deavor to lift them out of the sluice
ways If wrong III politics 70 the
stable rocks OF correct principles, of
the right that makes might. Can he
do this even Enough personally spot"
less, when he permits himself to be
the offspring of tine worst kind OF
political management ? The people
cannot endorse wrong doing, though
it's nastiness be covered with a fair
form and a pleasant countenance.
John w. Mason is not tainted with
corrupt party nomination ana is as
white man and the peer Of Mr..
Wilson.

What "a Voter Says.

Ed8. independent.
We are led to believe that Grail
roader was prompted by very self
i5h and malicious motives when
he published that absurd article
which appeared in the INDEPEN-
DENT the Esd, referring to Hon.
Geo. T. Evans actions in the leg
islature But we feel confident
that the intelligent voters of old
Berkeley will turn a deaf ear to
the classifying article when they
read Evans explanation, which
totally refutes the article and lays
1t wholly in the shade. Any man
Of ordinary intelligence, knows
that Mr.. Evans, nor any man,
possessing a shadow Of intelli-
gence, would vote for q bin that
is detrimental to his own personal
interests and to the interests of his
neighhor5. But perhaps Rail
r0ade'rs' aspirations led hin to be-
lieve that he will one day rise
from 'Agt" 10 Representative Of
old Berkeley, ii not, Why did he
write that article ABOUT an lnnO-
cent man? Ia conclusion, will
ay, that Mr.. Evans and I differ
ON politics, but right wrongs no
ore. We know MIR. Il. to be an
honest man, and we believe that
he viii do all he can for the well
fare Of his constituents and for The
good Of his country, He will be
well supported on the 10th in Fall

BALTIMORE, October 3.-Detec-
tive Greentree, of this city, yester-
day at Frederick arrested Richard
l.. Bradley for horse stealing at
HagerstoWn, and handed him over
to Constable Ryan, of that place, to
be put in Jail. Reaching the gate Of
the jail Bradley drew a revolver and
fired at Ryan, who then Wrested it
from him. Officers of the jail went
to the assistance Of Ryan when
Bradley drew another and sent a
bullet through the arm and into the
side of Turnkey Bremen. Bradley
then broke away from his captors,
jumped into Ryan's buggy and drove
at a break neck rate up the street,
turning in the country hotel pUr-
sued by the officers. He jumped
from the buggy, and making it q
shield, drew still another revolver,
and dehed arrest The man had the
advantage and held it up to dark.
The Sheriff summoned p posse Of
fifty men, but before they arrived

Miss Htpbee,s High school.

Very few females schools have made
better record than this one, founded by Mis-
Jennie NJ. Higbee, at the Topp place, in this
city. The location is unsurpassed for health
fulness; the grounds are beautiful and
ample; the school building has spacious
halls and commodious rooms, we'll lighted
aud we'll ventilated. The school building
has every advantage that could be desired.
The corps OF Instructors consists of the best
educators the couHtry can possibly produce,
aud Miss Higbee has that practical expe-
Haence which is 80 necessary to success. The
institutions over which she has formerly
presided here in Memphis number among
their alumni some of the purest and most
intellectual ladies of the South. OF her
~yomanly omplishments, her kindness,
sympathy and tenderness, all who have
patronized her schools will testify. Possessed
of executive ability, ambitious as well as
e.lented, Miss Higbee, as well as her able
assistants, will labor unceasingly to raise
till higher, if possible, the standard oil
scholarship and to perfect the school in every
OF her department. The scholastic year begin:
tomorrow, and the APPEAL expresses the
nope that the Topp place, corner Beale and
Lauderdale, will be crowded with young
ladies in search of knowledge at fountain
so pure and abundant.

WOrkingman Promises the Vote OF
the Union TO the Republican
Party.

Yesterday morning the Hawkins RepublI-
cans assembled in the Exposition building
for the purpose of choosing delegates 70 the
convention which will select Republican
candidate for Congress. Those who have
attended Republican conventions nave no,
ticed that they are usually very NOISY ana
DESTROYS OF pate-smsshing; when they are
not noisy they are preternaturally quiet
ominousiy still. The meeting yesterday was
a very milk-and- water affair; 1t was ike one
of O:car Wilde's s.thetic teas, 1t was pain
fully colorless, lacking in spirit and without
auy political significance. 1t is true that
Mr. J. C.. Hook OF the Am lgamated Union,
GOT ND and promised virtually that the
TorkJngmen would vote for the Republican
party az the only party which had passed
laws in favor of the workipgmen. lu the
first place, the APPEAL does not hesitate 10
deny that Mr.. Hook represents the sentl-
rents of the union. So far as the
Printers' Union is concerned he mlsrepre-
seuts them by about ninety per cent, and
any effort to identify that union with any
party will be promptly repudiated. In the
next place, Mr.. Hook is mistaken in saying
only the Republicans have passed laws Ia
yorable to the workingmen. There is me
chauics' lien law in Kentucky, and, indeed,
in nearly all the Democratic States IN the
Union.
The only DINER noteworthy ieA1"Ae VI '
meeting was the vigorous condemnation n, OF
Ed Shaw and Lafayette Jennings. Inc
crowd present was not large one. Only
about dozen white men participated IN H.

The meeting was called together by Carter

mously. L. D. Williamson was selected as
secretary.
The Committee on Credentials was made
