In another column will be found the
call of the County Republican Commit
tee for the election of delegates to the
congressional and county conventions.
1t will be noted that the hours of the
day for holding the primary elections is
specified in each township. In order
that no one can have cause for CON-
plant, it is hoped that those conducting
the primaries in the townships will
open the election as near the hour
designated as possible, and not close be-
fore the hour specified. No one should
be deprived of voice at these meetings.
Every Republican voter has a right to
give expression to his choice, and should
have full opportunity so to do within
the hours fixed by the central committee.

| st. Clairsyille presented a holiday ap
pearance on Tuesday-all the business
houses and portion of the private res
licences being decorated with flags to do
honor to ouI fallen heroes. Under the
auspices of Drummond Post the process
sion formed in front of the school house
in the following order:
Drum Corps,
Charlesworth. Commander.
st. Clairsville Light Guards,
School Children,
Citizens.
The procession marched to court house
| square, where they were drawn in line
and listened to an Grafton by Hon. Lo-
renzo Danford, which was suitable to
the occasion and in his usual eloquent
and impressive style, bringing his listen
ers up from the opening of the rebellion
and the first order of Decoration day to
the present. After the Grafton the pro-
cession was reformed and marched to
the NJ. E. cemetery, where the Post read
their ritual ceremonies over the grave
of Capt. Thomas Drummond, after which
the line of march was resumed through
the cemetery and each soldiers grave
beautifully decorated with flowers by
the Post and school children. Next the
procession marched to the Union ceme-
terry and the graves decorated there, af-
ter which they marched back through
town to the M. E. cemetery, where sa-
II n
military company, and the benediction
by Chaplain Hobbs ended the days pro-
ceedings.
Special praise is due the school chill
dren, who furnished the fowers-and
there was an abundance of them-and
who conducted themselves in manner
creditable to Prof. Hitchcock and
his corps of efficient teachers.
The military company turned out in
full force, and showed their discipline
which is not only credit to the men
and officers, but also to the town.
There were in the line of the G. A. r.
four soldiers who, in the same place, 81
years ago listened to speech by the la
mented Judge VIM. Kennon, to the first
company of 100 men organized in this
town.
AS this is the first time Decoration
day has been observed in st. Clairsville,
we can say that all were pleased with
the proceedings, and not a year will
pass without its tribute to the memory
of those who died in behalf of their
country.
Below we give the names of the SOL
diers whose graves were decorated, with

ment, their rank, and the cemetery in
which they are buried:
