paper and have read il during cam
paign they will naturally become sub
scribers when it is over The effect
will thus be to strengthen the party
permanently, by building up the
county organ and increasing it's in
1uence. 1t is in the nature OF per
manent investment Of the campaign
funds, and will yield fruit long after
the campaign is over.
Moreover the Press of the State
have right to whatever profit &C
crues from campaign work of this
character. They labor all the year
for the good of the party and it is
only right when the party can use
them to the mutual advantage of
both, it should be- done.
We therefore, insist that during
the present campaign, instead of
spending much time, and money in
useless documents, the State commit
tee and each county committee shall
provide for putting the Democratic
papers of the State in the hands of
every voter, no matter what his poll
tics, Let these papers go to the ad-
dress of every voter every week from
now until the election, and we will
warrant that there will be some sub
stantial return for it.
Let the Press of the State urge
this reasonable and common sense
demand.

Whatever else the State Executive
Committee may do toward organizing
the coming campaign, we hope to see
it show sense enough to recognize the
fact that the Press of the State is
the most proper and potent medium
for disseminating information among
the people.
In other words we hope that in
stead of foolishly squandering the
funds Of the campaign in an indis-
criminate scattering of public docu-
ments ola dry and statistical charac-
ter, the State and County committees
will assist in the distribution of the
Democratic papers which are pub
lished in every county of the State.
This is the practical and common
sense way Of reaching tie people.
Everybody knows that everybody
will read a newspaper when he would
not a public document Even those
who do not like politics will he be-
trayed into reading political articles
by having them sandwiched with the
news of the day in their county pa
per.
Moreover the free distribution of
the county papers during campaign
helps to more permanently organize
the party, by giving the county pa
pers a circulation which continues
after the campaign is over. When
men have thus been INTRODUCED to a

HERE BEECHER STANDS
He Will Take the Stump for
Governor Cleveland.

Brooklyn GWoN to-day published a
statement from Henry Ward Beech
er which effectually set at rest the
lies by the Blaine managers to the
effect that he had made up his
mind not to support Cleveland.
From the Unions account it APP
pears that at the request of Mr..
Beecher, General Horatio c. King,
of Brooklyn. went to Buffalo and
personally investigated the story
and reported to Mr.. Beecher. To
reporter of the Union, Mr.. Beecher
said this morning: II have been
undergoing judicial process.
have been way down in the mud,
but now the clouds are breaking
away and | am beginning to under
stand that these stories about Gov.
Cleveland are untrue and vile
SANDER.
"You can say that expect to
brand the men who have promul-
gated them as blackmailers and
liars, for | now expect the Gov
ernor acted the part of man in
this affair. | shall take the stump
for him and tell the people of this
country that they must elect him
President. | shall enter this cam
paign with an enthusiasm second
only to that with which | entered
the war Take my word for it, this
scandal, if false, will make Governor
Cleveland President.
General King stated to Mr..
Beecher that he could find no one
to father the ealumnies except the
gentleman known in Buffalo as FL
der Ball, pastor OF small Baptist
church, and formerly an employee
in the custom house. Ball is best
described as political striker. IN
1881 he demanded and received
$50 for alleged services to the In
dependent Republicans. In a re
cent canvass he begged $3.50 from
Senator Titus, and a like sum from
H. R. Jones. County Treasurer,
both Democrats, One of the sto-
ries circulated by Ball relates to an
occurrence twentyfour years since,
an innocent frolic in which the par
Elephants were legal chums of the

Independent Republicans, com
posed Of leading clergyman, a
lawyer and a merchant, on Mon
day demanded of the editor of the
Buffalo Telegraph, the proofs which
he said he was ready to produce.
He was greatly alarmed and on the
plea Of sickness, asked for delay.
The committee will make a thor
ough investigation and give the
facts to the public, over their sig
natures, as soon as the Telegraph
gives its reply.
The DIR. Mitchell who figures
with Ball as supporter of his
charges, is from Washington and
is an intimate friend of Mr.. Blaine.
He has been in Albany but three
years, more than half of which time
Governor Cleveland has been in

Sherman Rogers, and an init

leading members have also with
drawn until he publicly retracts his
statements. There is much excite
ment in Buffalo, and the most
people denounce the

port of the comittee may be ex-
pected in day or two.

This campaign will test the virtue
of the West Virginia Democracy.
If they can be bought the money is
ready, and the State is virtually lost.
But we have faith in the masses Of
the voters of this State. We do not
believe that crisp two dollar bills can
accomplish in West Virginia what it
did in Indiana.

A West Virginia republican who
had deal to do with the recent fusion
says that republican success in the
State depends entirely on whether
the reenbackers stick to their agree
ment. "rhey are pretty slippery
set of fellows, are usually for sale
and we have to watch 'em to see they
don't sell us out" the gentleman re-
marked. The green-backers ought
to put the seal of their appreciation
on this estimate by voting the demo
cratic ticket Free Press.

We have heretofore, had occasion
10 differ with the Mtelligencer on the
the character of its campaign against
the University. 1t has INDUCED
wholesale denunciations and seemed
bent on destroying rather than re
forming. As long as any journal
seeks to make political capital out of
the faults of the University or build
up its party on its ruins, we have
neither sympathy with or tolerance
for it. But when it deals In straight
forward manner with specific sub
jects of complaint, whether they be
of men or measures, it is entitled to
. hearing whether right or wrong.

Mr. morgan was distinguished
while in college as a fluent and
elegant writer and speaker as well
as thorough and pains-taking
student. AS teacher Mr.. Morgan
has no superior in Monongalia
county and believe but few, if any,
in the State.
In May, 1873, just before he
graduated he was elected principal
of the Morgantown Graded School,
which position he filled acceptably
and creditably for three years. In
the spring of 1881 he resigned his
position and was elected Superin-
tendent of Schools for Monongalia
county over very respectable Re
publican competitor by majority
of over two hundred. This in
county that is Republican over'soo
majority is recommendation that
few young Democrats can boast,
and speaks well for his quali6ca
tons and fitness for office in con-
nection with public schools. Mr..
Morgan's administration of the
the schools of Monongalia county
has been eminently successful. His
work was SO progressive and pop
ular that in 1883, he was reelected
without opposition. Another tes-
timonial from Republicans of his
capability and fitness. In the
meantime Mr.. Morgan was labor

Of education and the public school
system, but was fitting. himself for
other and higher duties. With this
