Candidates for city Offices should fight
very shy Of the professional politician this
time. He is very numerous this time and
in job lots may be bought cheap. If the
candidate took the word Of the average
vote broker or the proprietor Of doubt
ful ward he, will have to pay very high for
cheap luxury. Asa rule the aforesaid
v. b. and W. p. is getting a slight commits
sion, in addition to his compensation, from
the nearest saloon keeper, He should re-
member that the man who offers to give
him his influence and the votes he owns
in neither instance controls them. Wheel
ing has as many instances Of this class of
dead beats as any city Of her inches

Wheeling has good gas works and cheap
gas. Her water supply will soon be in
creased in quantity and quality. Within
tho last two years her streets have been
rapidly improved and in a short time all
OF the leading streets will be renewed, and
in such manner rs to make them perma'
nently good streets. This will be done
slowly, but If the citizens repress their
impotence it will be done surely.
With the appropriation, the ten-cent
levy and incidentals arising from
fines, wharycs and markets one
good street may be made each year.
This season it is altogether likely that an
effort will be made to complete a street
through to the Marshall county line.
North wheeling's necessities will next be
attended to, when, on account OF the
shortness OF the cross streets, the work OF
renewing them will be small. Thus in a
very short time Wheeling is destined to
have good streets and at comparatively
small cost.

Commodore Darrah, it is claimed, is
aiming to set upa council which will elect
his brother gas trustee in orderto elevate
the latter's son to the Secretaryship rice
Edward Hazlett to be bounced. The
Commodore as schemer has few "ekals"
and no superiors. Some how or other,
however, his little schemes fail to
materializes The Commodore must re-
member that the "pickins" in this debt
ridden city are not for the exclusive use
and behoof Of his and "his'n.Y This
'sort" OF thing has been going on as long
as it is profitable to this city, and Council
men should be elected without reference
to their obligations, pecuniary or other
wise, to any one.

Of aceumulatiug any. These are the men
who are now seeking to set up Council
tickets, to nominate men Of their own ilk
to legislate for the city at a time when the
city requires her property holders, her
business men, her upright, honest citizens
to take charge of her affairs. The respon-
sible citizens Of this city should remember
these facts and suffer the hoodlum eIe-
ment to no longer dominate its offices and
It's Council. Real workingmen will not
be caught by the "workingman" dodge.
They know what that costs them.

A Card.

To WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN:--A sense
of duty to myself and to DR.. P. S. Fulkerson,
who has rendered to mi unexpectedly and
unsolicited the position Of his deputy in the
postofice, induces me to make this plain and
brief statement of facts, which (if necessary
can be attested by good and responsible men
still living In Virginia. With what object
such reports are circulated it is difficult to
conjecture, but it is said that in selecting a
deputy DR.. Fulkerson had been at some pains
to choose II man who had been a republican
in politics. The simple facts are rs follows:
I was born and raised in the county of Caro-
line, Virginia, and was a student at the Uni
versity of that state when the ordinance Of
secession was passed. With o number of
other young men L left college, and in the
month of May, 1861, entered the confederate
service. l was attached to the division Of
Gen. George E. Pickett, and was with him
in the many battles he fought during the war
up to the final surrender when the terms of
capitulation were signed by Gen. Grant and
Gen. Lee under the apple tree at Appomat-
tox courthouse. l was then permitted TO
return to what had once been my home,
without a dollar in my pocket. barefooted,
and without any other clothing thar the rag
ged and bullet riddled remnants Of my old
confederate uniform. With the hope Of
lettering my condition 1 came In 1873 10 this
county, and four years thereafter located in
Lexington, since which time 1 have been
known to the people here. I have never
before made any statement regarding my war
record, nor do l now make 1t for the purpose
of elcitlng praise or sympathy. My course
was taken in obedience to what I regarded as
a duty to my native state. and I am willing
to accord to others, who held opposite views
the same honesty Of purpose which 1 claim
for myself. I have all my life been a demo-
crat, invariably voted the democratic ticket,
and never for q state or national officer voted
any other. Permit me in conclusion to say
that l do not think DR.. Fulkerson can be
Justly charged with having selected his depu-
ty. because of his republicanism. I am, very
respectfully, your obedient servant,
Il. L. JESSE.
