@Don't snub the reporter" says The Boston
Herald. The reporter isnot apt to be snubbed.
Very few can afford to snub him kcifer's
downfall was said to be due to the fact that
he snubbed reporters, and it is claimed that
a Union general who had a great career before
him lost all chances of fame by insulting a
newspaper man, whereupon the rest agreed
never 20 mention that generals name in their
reports, and the unfortunate man dropped
out of sight. The Herald pleads for the re-
porter The man who does the snubbing is
the person who should be sympathized with.

Washington Star of Friday August 6:
Mr.. Wilson who was chairman OF the sub
committee having in charge the district aP-
preparation bill, is hard at work upon
thousand and one matters that have accu-
mulated while he has been occupied on the
work of the appropriations committee, and
which will prevent his going home for a
day or two yet. Last session he was on the
District of Columbia committee, and this
session he was promoted TO the appropria-
tions committee, and has been one OF the
hardest workers on the committee. He had
almost entire charge of the District bill
Much time was devoted by his sub-commit-
tee to the water works extension investlga-
ton, and it was due TO his efforts that the
school appropriation was increased. Mean
while he has a fight on his hands in the
convention, as he has not had time to look
after his fences. Several candidates for
nomination are in the field, and some OF
the disappointed ofice-seekers are lighting
| him.

Mr.. Charles H. Knott is announced
through the shepherdstown Register for the
Legislature. Referring to Mr.. Knott, the
Register says editorially:
ave publish in another column OF this
issue a card announcing Mr.. Charles H.
Knott as a candidate for the next Leglsla-
ture. We say unqualifedly that better
man for the position than Mr.. Knott can,
not be selected in this county, and he VIII
be voted for solidly in Shepherdstown dis,
trict where he is known and respected oil
all. The fact is not questioned that Shep-
herdstown is entitled to member OF the
Legislature, neither can it be questioned
that Mr.. Knott is the man for the place;
He is progressive, liberal, honorable and
public-spirited in the full meaning OF those
terms, and Just such man as the people OF
this district and county can safely trust
with their interests. We need liber mind
ed, wide-awake, incorruptible, intelligent
men to represent us always, and now OF all
times Charles H. Knott fills the bill"
