IMPORTANT Letter FROM HON. ID.
II. LUCAS.

The following letter was written to
Mr.. NEWTON, in response to an appeal
requesting Judge HOGE and Mr.. Lucas
to withdraw from the Congressional
contest in the Second district Of this
State, and published in the Grafton
Eagle, of which he is the editor:
CHARLEsTowN, August %, 1882.
c. w. NelrLOn, Esq:
HoNoRED FRIEND-In the Grafton
Eagle of Saturday last you express snch
views of the Congressional contest in
this district as might have been eX-
pected from your established reputation
for integrity, and your known devotion
to the principles and organization Of the
Democratic party in this district.
desire to say TO you that my views
entirely accord with your own.
DIES re to express in few words nay
position, in order that no one may mis-
understand it.
claim that q majority Of duly
chosen and properly accredited dele
gates 10 the heyser Convention Were
favorable TO my nomination. That in
order to defeat me, anu thus diSapplint
the popular will, it was found necessary
To- resort to extraordinary and unjusti-
fable expedients, as follows, ri=: The
established and recognized basis Of rep
resentatiOn in former conventions OF
the last general expression of the popu-
lar vote, being the Presidential election
of 1880, was To be abandoned; secondly,
the delegations were in some manner
to be SO manipulated and changed a. to
count Olst enough of delegates favorable
To me to prevent my nomination.
The convention was q representative
body. individuals had no weight there,
except the weight given them by virtue
Of their representative capacity, rs
representing an aScertained number OF
Democratic constituents, or voters, in
their respective counties. To Change
the basis of representation, therefore,
necessarily required a uOtc 6y counties
the basis last recognized and aeteI
upon. Indeed there was no authority
to take any important step without Such
a vote. Least Ofall could the report on
credentials, whereby il WAS attempted
To unseat the whole Preston delegation,
because only the chairman of the meet
ing at which they were selected
lad certified the proceeding be
adopted, or In any wise acted
on, except by = representative r0te
6y counties. Any other vote was sheer
nonsense, and when insisted on, aud
enforced I'm the face of call for q regu-
lar representative vote, became fraudu-
lent. Every lawyer in the convention
knows "a is a. well Il | d., and no can
did man, il BE is one, will dispute the
proposition that the action of the
assumed permanent chairman in refus-
ing Ia permit a vote by counties was
arbitrary, unju>titiable, unparliamanta-

sentatiyes should declare the result OF
Presidential election, thrown into the
House. by q viyG voce vote, when the
Constitution declares the same shall be
determined only by State representa-
ton. -,
No impartial spectator, IL sane, will
deny that the action OF the chairman
in unseating Preston and large part OF
/ TAYLOR, was totally irregular, arbitrary
and utterly. nugatory. No Impartial
spectator at Keyser could resist or uehy
the influence of deliberate conspiracy
TO practice against legitimate majority
of the convention, intimidation, usur-
patton and fraud. / need not recall TO
your mind the regular developmeH,
Step by step, of this most brazen con-
sniraey. You were there, and saw 1t
all. You know that We could not, con-
sistently with honor and selfrespect,
have done otherwise than we did. You
know and feel what sacred duty we
owe 70 the Democracy of this district
TO protect them against the repetition OF
such dangerous conspiracies against tue
integrity of their conventions, ana the
purity of their organizations. . -
So long, therefore, as the representa-
tive of this fraud is in the field, can
not possibly withdraw. Let this be
understood, once for all, unalterably and
irrevocably. / will never withdraw
while Hoge is in the field. Upon the
other hand, aecrediting others with mo-
tiyes as conscientious as my own, now
declare to YOU that the very moment
Judge Hoge resigns his candldature,
and retires from the contest, l Will lm-
mediately do the same, not only IN
vite, but most earnestly invoke Judge
Hoge and his friends to consider the
success of the Democracy In
this district as above personal
aspirations. pray them meet
me halfway, and let both OF us
saerafice all personal feelings upon the
altar of patriotism, and party fealty. L
venture to suggest that whatever Is done
in this matter, should be done promptly,
and before, by q personal canvass, any
further responsibility shall by the people
themselves, be devOlved upon my
shoulders. A suggestion has been made
that the issue between Judge Hoge and
myselfbe decided by primary etect'oR.
This sugg estion meets with my
hearty approval. If regularly con
Quoted, such an election will give the
Democratic voters themselves an OPP
portunity to decide who is the regular
nominee. Truly your friend, e..

Hon. Lewis Baker, Of the Wheeling REs-
1srKR. is mentioned as a candidate for the
Senate from the Wheeling District We
should be pleased to see Mr.. Baker nomina-
ted, for he would make very useful Sena-
tor. There are few men in the State better
acquainted with its wants and necessities
or more capable Of legiNlating in its inter
est than Lewis Baker, and the people will
do well to send him 70 the Senate.-HsAtaS
Herald ... --.r ...e-s
In the abundance ofits love for Mr..
BAKER, the Sunday Leader of this city,
suggested him for seat in the State
Senate, with many kind and etloglstic
remarks. This moved several of the
newspapers in the State to second the
nomination, as it were. Now that the
nomination has been made and see
onded by the newspaper brethren, it
may be as good time as any for the
REGISTER to remark, by authority OF
Mr.. BAKER, that he is not a candidate
for this or any other public position,
that he could not accept q nomination
if rendered him, and that it would be
entirely out of the question for him to
serve if elected to a seat in the Senate.
Mr.. BAKER has no taste for public po-
sition, and the one rule of his life from
which he cannot be induced TO depart
Is, that under no circumstances will he
be either an office-seeker or office
holder. He has well defined ideas upon
this subject and has come to his eonelu-
sions with deliberstion. His life-busi-
ness is to print a newspaper; from that
he will not be diverted.
Thanks, gentlemen of the Press-gang.

IT NAY be qualification to the Re-
publican press TO indulge the thin de-
vice Of lodging the responsibility Of the
River and Harbor steal by charging
that Democrats participated in it; but
the discriminating public cannot be
made to lose sight of the fact that Re
publican majority, led by Keifer and
Robson, framed bill so as to force
Democrats to accept an enormous steal
in order to obtain necessary appropria-
tons and save great loss and disaster to
Government works throughout the
country. The people viii hold the party
responsible in whose hands the public
funds had been placed, and who DELHI
erately betrayed their trust.

Thinks 10 the Republican Party.

According to Gen Gibson, the birds-o'-
freedom orator imported from Ohio to wake
up the Republicans of Maine, the grand
old party is entitled TO the credit OF the
enormous grain crop OF this year. If this
is 50, it is odd that a party which has be-
slowed such benefits upon the country
should be dependent for its salvation upon
n oney ext9rted from the public servants.
And, if it is so puisSant, there can he no
reason Why the farmers should lose by low
prices. 1t can keep up the prices as easily
rs it can make crops. Great is buneombe.
