Wilson Harangueing the "Dear People"
ChdrlsstOssR Free Press. ..
Hon. Z. Willis Wilson spoke in Charles
town on Monday afternoon. The audience
was a very small one, due to the fact that
so many who might otherwise have been
present were busy in the harvest fields.
However he had very respectable aud
fence and respectful and attentive hearing
throughout his entire address which was
forcible and twO-hOursand-a-haf long. He
began at the beginning of parties in this
country and in scathing terms denounced
the Republican party as the same old Fed
eral party, only more so, of which Alexau-
der Hamilton was the leader nearly cen
tnry ago. His speech eyinced research and
he presented his conclusions upon
historical facts as he understands them
Auently, strongly and elearl y-and when
he got down to q discussion of railroads
and other sO-called mOnOpoEes, and to his
legislative action concerning them, he was
perfectly at home and cOnsumately happy
He warned his hearers against the influence
in State affairs of the alledged mOnopolistiC
powers Of the two great railroad corpora
lions and then told them the r. Rs only
have 5000 men in West yirginia-half Of
EN- Republicans, and that they cannot con-
troll EN- because they think for themselves.
and vote according to their own inclinations.
Mr. Wilson is surely an adept at solitaire i'll
boYhng--setting up the pins and knocking
EN- down again. He expressed his belle
that he would be nominated for GOvernO
and be triumphantly elected. In this he =
not singular, for most candidates persuade
themselves of their own popularity and in
yincibility Tho Mr. Wilson is not om
choice, we have no hesitation in remarkin-
that we believe he would dignity the CUB
ernatorial chair and guard with jealous eve

The Butler Boom Growing.


The Butler boom grows apace, and it is
said that Tammany and several other Dem
ocratic factions have decided that Benja.
min Franklin Butler is the one altogether
lovely, and the only man in the country
who can lead the Democratic hosts to vic
tory. There would certainly be much merit
in the candidacy of the hero Of Dutch Gap
He il the greatest protean statesman Of the
age. Like the gentleman mentioned by the
melancholy Hamlet, "he hath power TO as,
sumo pleasing shape no matter in what
sort of political society he may find himself
He is a high tariff man, low tariff man, a
greenbacker, a hard money man, civil ser
vice reformer, spokesman, with equal factl-
ity and success. His broad and generous
mind like a general country store. is sup
piled with everything, and if at first you
don't see a set of opirions TO please, all you
need do is to call for it and the versatile
Butler will promptly throw it down upon the
counter. Such a candidate might antago-
nize Blaine where it was useful to antago
nize him, fall in with HIM whenever it would
DO any good, and veer and tack in such an
adroit way as to catch every POLITICAL cross
wind.

"a n EHiII,r n Ils Nrliylsl


CLARESBURG, ". Va, July |, lSS4.-The
time is fast approaching for the Democracy
to meet in Wheeling. and select State
ticket to serve for the ensuing four years
In such selection it behoOyes the party to
choose the best material and most available
man or men that have co-operated with the
party, men who have devoted their time and
means to the interest of the party and lost
SIGHT of self and self interest; such men are
deserving to be honored and rewarded and
not those who have abSented themselves
from all conventions, canvasses and hard
ships attending the necessary labor on such
occasions. With this view, and feeling as
do, that the offices should be distributed as
near equal as can be among the four con
greSSiOnal districts, allow me to suggest the
name o. gentleman for the Office Of Su-
preme Judge of the First District-a man
whose popularity, capacity, energy and faith
fulness to party interest is second to none
in the district, that gentleman is the Hon.
Henry Brannon, of the county of Lewis
Judge Brannon is free from any and all OBJ
iections In the prime Of life and better
adapted to the position than any man |
know of in this section of country, in him
the ticket will have strength, the people con-
idence and the party will be rewarding a
true, honest and faithful servant.
A DEMOCRAT.

Mss GAIL HAMILTON has come to the
rescue and sets the public right on BLArNE'S
religion. She says that he retains all the
instincts Of his Seotch-Presbyterian an
eesry and has for twenty years been
q member of the Congregational church in
Augusta. While retaining a sacred rever'
ence for the memory of his mother he never
imbibed any of her partiaEty for the Catho-
lie religion. Mr.. .BLANE's former pastor
backs up GAIL HANlLTON'S statement in the
following rather bIasPhemOus language: IF
as a child BLAINE took his mothers hand
and went with her to the Catholic church,
vet there is Protestant day oEjudgmeut
which viii purify as byfre the touch Ofthat

Charity vs.. Facts.


AT this time, Just on the eve Of the Prest-
Dental election, one may well question the
wisdom or propriety Of such exposures OF
party. or rather faetional, manipulations as
that contained in Facts communication,
published in yesterdays REGIsrER,
Why expose our dirty linen to the public
gaze? What is fun to our enemies IS death
10 ourselvesl wide the fable Of THE boys
and the frogs"
What Facts relates Of Monday S con-
venticn may be true, land We are disposed
to think it is, but is it not more polite to
keep il to ourselves?
Ii was certainly in bad taste, if not a
wrongful usurpation Of delegated powers,
for the Convention to appoint in whole
sale numbers themselves as BIT and suitable
Delegates to the State and Congressional
conventions.
But may it not be urged in paliation,
if not in complete justification, that many
of the members were young aud inexperI-
enced. Besides some Of, them perhaps
oyer-rated honor involved in such appoint
ment. and so. took advantage of the opPor-
tunity they had of securing for themselves
such honor, FEARFUL they might never have
another such chance.
Don't be hard on the boys. They knew
no better. Let the blunder be forgotten and
forgiven,
We can't help but think that it was just
as well, if not better, to appoint themselves,
than to go into Cabell County to iud dele
gate to represent Ohio.
But it is common to make mistakes. From
the primitive day when Eve partook of the
forbidden fruit her descendants have been
beguiled into the commission Of all sorts of
bluuders- CHARITY.

THE REGISTEE several days ago referred
TO the attempt of the BLAINE managers to
win votes in the two Yirginias BY eirculat-
ing in pamphlet form that chapter Of Mr..
BLAINE book relating to the Virginia debt
question. The Minneapolis Evening Jour
nal, a leading Republican paper Of the
Northwest, takes it up and SAYS:
"Mr. Blaine's doctrine that the Federal
government should assume a portion of the
debt of Virginia will not meet with much
favor in thesNOrth, but it may not ueeessa-
rily antagonize Mr. Blaines interests in the
Republican States, because nobody believes
that such au absurd proposition can ever
prevail in Congress at least by Republican
votes. The argument that the United
States should pay so much Of the
debt of Virginia as might presumptive-
" be represented by the territory
taken from her in the creation of West
Virginia, because the new State was admit
ted TO the Union for tie benefit of the
whole Union, might be applied with equal
force to the advocacy of a proposition to
paw for the slaves emancipated BY Lincoln
proclamation Ii might be said, with equal
truth, that they were emsncipated for the
benefit of the whole Union, and the whole
Union should share the loss. The theory
upon which the entire loss is saddled upon
the slave owners is that they had Justly for
feited their slave property BY the crime Of
rebellion; and with equal fairness it may
be held that the State Of Virginia had justly
forfeited her right to the territory embraced
in West Virginia by her crime of rebellion.
The cases are exactly parallel.
We have no objection to Mr. Blaine
personally making his bold bid for the vote
Of Virginia, but the Republican party must
be careful not to indorse the doctrine which
he advances in making such bid. 1t is a
position upon which the Republican party
could not maintain itself in the Northern

THE SUPPLEMENTAL ASSESSMENT DE-
CISION.

The recent decision Of the Supreme Court
of Appeals in the supplemental case seems
TO be attracting attention and exciting COM
ment throughout the State, A commnni
cation from a distinguished gentleman in
the interior Of the State SAYS:
The recent decision Of the Court Of APP
peals in the supplemental case is anything
but satisfactory to our people, and they are
open and loud in their denunciauons Of the
same. Woods and Snyder will not DE sup
ported for the position they now OccuPyand
in fact all of the present incumbents of the
State House viii have to be repudiated in
this neck Of woods.
Our correspondent would obfge US by
pointing out the particulars in which the
decision of the Supreme Court is faulty.
Mere criticism without specifications is no;
a satisfactory way Of dealing with sub
ject If the people have right to com
plain of the decision of the court, they have
also the right to submit the ground Of their

Tlklns a Relative of General Lee.

Steve Elkins, Blaiues alleged manager
and prospective Secretary Of the Interior, is
a SON Of h cousin of Robert +. Lee. At
the outbreak of the war, says Dom Piatt,
all the Elkins family were in sympathy with
the South. Two Of the boys younger than
Sieve. went into the Confederate army, and
Elkins' father was, throughout, as strong
rebel as / ever saw. Stephen, with an in
stinet of safety equal to that of his great
leader, Mr. Blaine. early went to New Mex
leo and turned Republican. After the war
be induced an old schoolmate, Thomas B.
Catron who commanded Confederate bat
terry. to Join him. These two have ever
since been leading spirits in the Republican
party in New Mexico.

CRIMINAL COURT.

Tho Hsguiar February Adjourned Term.
This morning the adjourned quarter
session court begun Owing 10 the fact
that tho insurance case is still on trial
before Judge Patterson it fell TO the lot of
Judge Livingston 70 conduct the criminal
court.
The first case attached was that of
Commonwealth VS.. Bessie Spioer, of this
city. The defendant was charged with
keeping a disOrdeTly house 1t was shown
that in November, 1888, she resided in
Breneman's ecourt, Third ward, this city ;
her house was the resort of disreputabIe
people of both sexes aud all cOlors. Gangs
OF young men hung around the place a
good part Of tho time beer was carried
into the house by the kog and the result
was that there were great noises TO the
disturbance of the neighborhood.
The defense was that the defendant lid
not keep the house, but she lived as
housekeeper with John Shroad, who rent.
ed the house aud paid for it; Shroad died
some time ago. After these facts had
been proven verdict OF not guilty was
taken as it could not be shown that de-
iendant was the keeper Of the place.
In the case of Daniel Garla5h, charged
with fornicatiou and bastardy, a verdict of
not guilty was taken for want of evi-
denco.
George W. Stappe, OF this city, was
grated peddler's license.
