Amends.

Our brethren of the Journal took
us to task last week for dishonesty
in failing to issue a paper, Holiday
week. We have already explained
the omission to our readers, but by
way of amends we perhaps can
not do better than to copy from the
Journal and make up the lack.
The following items are from
the two last numbers:
"Judge Ferguson in his speech
at the Court House on Saturday
night, stated that he is at the pres
ent time counsel for nine murder
ers, all residents of neighboring
counties and that seven of the
murders committed by these men
were caused directly by the use of
VIII isky."
''In store for the Holidays,
Champagne, Port, Sherry, &c.
Wines. Runs; Scotch, Irish, Rye
and Bourbon Whiskles."
"Our merchants-all who adver-
Clseo-uld Splendld dollday Dus-
mess"
at cannot be said with entire
truth that everybody has kept So
Der during the Holidays SO far"
"There was too much Christmas
for the good of some of the boys"
"Four or five of our town boys
made an attack on three Germans
on Christmas day, and a fight en-
sued, resulting in the cutting up
terribly of the Germans"
And this, by way of conclusion
to the Holiday record in that d.
rection:
"Our efficient policemen made
sixteen arrests on Christmas dav.
So, evidently some Of the boys had
to pay for their whistle"

The Election TO-MOrrOw-The
Tickets.

The candidates for member OF the
House of Delegates, to fill the va
cancy made by the resignation OF
Mr.. w. A. Cooper, are as follows:
Republican, J. T. McMechen.
Democratic, J. R. Leachman.
Greenback, Writ R. Neale.
We are glad to announce that
the FREEMAN is in the same happy
position in this short campaign as
in the last. Since each of the can
didates openly declares for the sub
mission of the Amendment the
FREEMAN throws up it's hat for all
on the track, and may the best
man win
This news will probably disap-
point our neighbors on our right
and left, who are doubtless each
very anxious for the FREEMAN to
actively support the others eandl-
date so as to bring about his defeat;
But here is an opportunity too good
to be lost, for US to show our poll,
tics straight; so we boldly, and
without fear or favor, urge the
sovereign voters of Wood county
to turn out tomorrow and vote
for the man you think best suited
to represent the interests Of our peo-
pie in the Legislature.

AMONG OUR EXCHANGES.
Their Notions and Ours.

The city Of Wheeling, with a
population of 3d. 900, has eleven po-
licemen, who are each paid s65
per month Wheeling Journal.
Harrisv1lle, with population of
less than thousand, has one po-
liceman; but he has nothing to do
about three hundred and sixty-five
days out of the year.-Richae Ga
zette.
Why don't you license a half doz-
en- saloons and give employment to
as many policemen. Slow town,
yours-no enterprise for the distri-
button of money and labor.
If our preacher would take Peru
ma his horseness would soon leave
him. Welzel Democrat.
Will the same medicine cure
mule-ness, too? Or have you
tried it yet?
Somebody took by mistake, or
stole, editor Mack Workman's over
coat from the K. of H. Hall on the
night of the banquet. The Press
Association will pay $1,000 for the
arrest of the thief. Barnum will
furnish the money to pay 1t. He
wants to exhibit him as the mean
est man in the world.-HuntangtOn
AduertiSer.
Maybe the fellow intends max
ing fortune himself by exhibit
ing an overcoat actually owned by
a West Virginia editor.
We are not Puritan, but it
strikes us that keeping saloons
open on Christmas is violation of
the Sunday laws, in effect, if not
in fact. Wetzel Democrat.
1t is a violation of all laws of po-
litical economy, common sense and
decency, to keep saloons open on
any day.
The bar of Ohio county has done
itself honor by its handsome trib-
ute to an honorable man and just
Judge now about to retire from the
bench. Judge Haymond's fare
we'll address, dignified and kindly,
was in keeping with the occasion.

And we desire to add, the alb
sence of all intoxicants from the
banquet was eminently in keeping
with the occasion.
An exchange says that Striped
parasols have taken the place of
striped stockings" We dont't be-
lieve it. The idea of a woman
holding a striped stocking over
her head to keep off the sun.-Ty-
Ter independent
The idea of keeping off the sun
with a striped stocking we can
manage, but how the striped para
soils could be put on for stockings
is what worries us.

QUERY.-It seems to be a query
with some, whether it was the f.
nancial or moral ex1gency of the
City's condition that resulted in a
resort to "Liquor Advertisements"
to pay for programmes for the
"Public School" exercises at the
Academy Of Music, Saturday even
ing. An answer might be a mat
ter of public interest.

Only this and nothing more.
Is there any "prohibition" in
that? When the Register speaks
of the present "prohibitory clause
in the Constitution, it speaks eth
er in incxcusable ignorance Or with
inexcusable perverseness. 1t
would be improbable for US now to
sing a refrain to the old song, above
repeated, about an amendment not
being "practical" without legisla-
ton to enforce it. Let us have the
Amendment and we'll get the Leg
islation.
The Register puts direct ques-
ton, and unlike the Register, we'll
give it a direct answer
1t asks the FREEMAN for an Gin
telligent reason why it does not 60
direct to the Legislature for Prohi-
bition, instead of going round Rob-
in Hoods barn by way ofan Amend
ment?
The FREEMAN answers, first; be-
cause the Register with all the liq-
uor power of the State would be
there to defeat the FREEMAN's mis-
sion, and, second; if the Legisla-
ture should pass a prohibitory act,
in spite of the Register and the
money and votes of liquor men,
they would all be on hand at the
next session and the next, with la
bored editorials to show, and paid
witnesses to prove, that there was
more a0hishy sold when there was
none sold than there was sold when
it quds sold.
We want "Prohibition" at head
quarters; and instead of going
around RobinHood's barn, as charg-
ed, we insist on showing the old barn
out of the way. 1t is here the
liquor men are hiding and lodging
the arrows of justice, showered af-
ter them by an indignant people
The present Constitution simply
implies that the liquor traffic
may be declared an outlaw. We
want, a constitution declaring it an
outlaw. We have Constitution
saying, Laws may be made pro-
hibiting it." Give us Constitu-
ton saying, 1t IS prohibited, and
laws shall be made to enforce the
prohibition.
In conclusion, it is putting it
very mildly to say the Register
ought to be ashamed of itself for
trying to give out the impression
that chapter VI, section As of our
Constitution and the proposed con-
stitutional amendment are "of the
same import" How it can excuse
itself for this, would do for prize
puzzle.

Growth thus far, as it now APP
reaches its second birth day, as
sell as to all whom it seeks to win
nd secure as future friends, that
aeither care, painstaking nor la
cor will be spared to improve the
FREEMAN and make it better and
still better in every feature that
goes to make up frst-class, live,
wide-awake, independent, fearless,
vigorous and healthy, ever watch
full and aggressive
TEMPERANCE FAMILY NEWSPAPER.
1t is the one, constant and con-
Stunning desire and ambition of all
connected with the FREEMAN to
make Of it just such weekly Wis
itor as every wise and discreet citi-
zen Of West Virginia will delight
to welcome into his or her family,
and such as every unwise and care
less man ought to invite to his
home.
To this end, our time, strength,
and every effort is devoted. And
may we not confidently ask our
friends throughout the State to help
us-help US put the FREEMAN into
every family in your several neigh
borhoods?
