THE fault finding with President
Cleveland for vetoing few pension
claims is the merest political claptrap.
He signed more pension bills during

than General Grant did in his eight
years. More pension money has been

former year of our country's history.
The President believes in granting
pensions in all worthy and meritori.

the Circuit Court of the United States
in that State decided that breweries
in existence when the prohibition law
was passed could not be stopped

saloons are likewise entitled to pro-

THE Republicans have inaugurated
"still hunt" in this county. They
have issued a secret circular asking
the adherents of the g. o. D., to not
talk politics with their Democratic
neighbors, but TO sec every Repub.
lican in their neighborhood and have
him to pledge himself that he will
come out and vote on election day.
They hope by this trick to catch the
Democrats mapping. If the Demo-
Gratis can be caught in such a trap
they deserve defeat. We don't be-
lieve, however, that any Democrat
will be caught in the Republican
trap. Let every Democrat do his
duty on November the I'd and we will
give them such a "still hunt that
they can feel the next earthquake.

TEMPERANCE" says the Spring
field Republican, sis really a local
question within each State, and OF.
ten within each city, town or county,
according as the town or county is
the unit Of local government. There
is a great and mischievous effort now
on foot to make IL a national issue.
We say mischieyous and deplorably
mischievous, because the temperance
question resolves itself speedily into
a question Of domestic police and
juries. II comes TO the tes: at the
very FIRST effort 70 enforce law, and
black will be that day for American
institutions which sees the effort TO
enforce national temperance legisla.
tion through the United States courts,
juries and marshals. The city Of
Springfield can deal with its own
police force simply and sUmmarily,
but when an excise cOnstpbulary is
created large enough TO watch pro-
hibitOry law placed in the hands Of
an appointing power at Washington,
we shall have on trial an imperialist

potism among the present emperors

MIR. JOnes's Methods.

TERRA ALTA, w. va. Oct. IL.
In looking over the late ARGUS
see where you have set forth many
facts about j. p. Jones. But from
some cause you have left out por.
ton, and that is this: First, he used
his influence in having a law made
to appoint a coroner in each county,
and after 1t became q law he had
himself appointed in Preston, and as
such was called to Newburg to hold
an inquest over the 80 dead bodies,
taking big portion of his jurors from
Terra Alta.
The law only allows FIVE dollars
for holding that inquest and $3.50
per day But he puts in q bill of
five dollars for each of the SO bodies
making 1915 dollars which the county
court allowed. He then donated that
amount to the families of the deceas.
ed and made himself many friends
The money he gave TO make himself
friends was the cOunty's money, and
by taking jurors from here made more
expense. If the law had been left
as IL was, for a justice to hold the
inquest it would have been much
cheaper.

PROBABLY Judge Hoke has forgot
ten what he said while eulogizing
the soldier at the late Reunion. We
take occasion to remind him of his
declaration. The Judge said in sub.
stance that the soldier would always
have his support. That, ifperchance,
soldier bobed up in a Republ. can
convention as a candidate for Office,
and the Judge happened TO be can.
didate for the same Office, he would
graciously withdraw in favor of the
soldier. But, then, a soldiers re-
union is not Republican convention,

DEMOCRAT" in a colnmunIca-
ton in this issue asks many peril
nent questions concerning the
status of the party in our county,
and, although his innocence in
some cases may BIO assumed, per-
haps simple statement Of the
facts concerning our organization
may not BIZ out Of place just now.
At the county Convention four
years ago an Executive committee
consisting of one individual from
each township was appointed and
Mr.. II. A Crandell made its Chair
man; two years later D. II. Pc
rev succeeded Mr.. Crandell to
the Craftsmanship but the Com
mittee remained unchanged; their
names are unknown to Viz, and we
are of the opinion that u majority
of them were never present at any
one meeting. The Committee is
expected to exercise its Judgment
and take action on all matters con-
corning the welfare and manage
ment of the party, and certainly it
should take into consideration the
adyisability of a county nominal
ing convention and if deemed nee
essary Issue call for the same.
