MOTIFS AND GOSSIP.
The West Virginia Argus, published by
Lee Kussart, at Kingwood, is gaining rsp
icly in circulation and business under the
present editor.
DR.. James IL. Mauown, for thirty years
publcspirited man Of Kingwood, expects
TO emigrate next fall to Clarksburg OF the
future capital of the State. His loss here
will be great acquisition TO one or the
other of the latter towns.

citizen of KiDgwood. reads the Register,
and learns the good old J,ffersonian doc
trines.

self candidate for Supt. Butchers shoes.
Two notable characte rs in this section
OF country are John s. Murdoch, who
was Squire in Kingwood for forty years,
snd DR., julius C@sJ Kemble, known as
the cold Roman" Of Preston.

and his congregation is equally pleased
with him.

The Radical Situation.

Col, MCCLURE Of the Philadelphia

alton In the Radical fold, and puts
ARTHUR vastly in the lead. Here
are his figures: % first ballot, AR
THUR 304, BLAINE 255, EDMUNDs 68,
LOGAN 46, SHERMAN 81, HARRISON
rs, FAIRcHILD Is, SABIN IA, HAw-
LEY II, with 46 doubtful. The New
York Herald believes ARTHUR will
receive 432 votes on first ballot, and
receive the nomination. Be this as
it may, ARTHUR bae large follow
lng, and if be does not succeed in re-
ceiving the nomination, bis followers
will support some other man than
BLAINE. We believe the popular
mind favors the nomination OF the
Plumed knight, but he cannot sue
coed in getting it. He was cruel
fed, politically speakioP,in 1876 and
10 1880. and the came fate awaits
bin this year. He is popular with
the masses, but is hated and will be
persecuted by the leaders, His

Tho Soldier Element.

JUST now this element is rising to
the surface in the county and openly
declares it's right to portion Of the
county offices. The soldiers of this
county have been hoodwinked ever
since the war. They have been kept
as uuderliDgs by the Bosses and
Rings that have held full sway and
controlled the county affairs and it is
pleasing to know that at this late a
day they are awaking from their
lsthargy 90 es to observe and fully
perceive the general drift which mat
ters have taken for the past twenty
years, and are taking to-day among
the Bosses who control aud consti-
tute the Ring.
Ever since the war closed the SOL
dlers have gone to the polls and vot-
cd the straight Republican ticket.
La that time what men have they
elected to Office? Have the county
officers been soldiers-that is, those
who bave held paying positions 2
Nay, verify. The soldiers have not
been recognized in proportion to
their numbers here, and their eyes
5ave at last opened sufficiently Tor
them TO see and recognize the fact.
They have voted for twenty years to

who have formed Ring 30 strong

extreme measures are resorted 10, and
they have resolved TO break it. let

Every citizen of the county, who
loves freedom and honest govern ment
should look upoa this action OF the
soldiers with the kindest feelings
They propose TO wrest Themselves
and tho county from the iron grip OF
the Bosses who have been controlling
with that same tyranical splrit which
characterizos the Gar OF Russia, or
the Sultan OF Turkey, aad let the
people say, amen, They have de-
cided to abandon all aft llations wit
the Ring which has been their dicts-
tor, and has nonopolizsd all the
spoils Of office for the past two de-
cades. They have firmly resolved

these things if they work in unity
