Last Monday evening, at Hiser's,
OIL the Princeton road, Burrell kim

quarreled over the ownership of some
crackers, rough language being used
by both parties, when Dunning drew

fingers. A doctor was called and
sewed up the neck wound.
Dunning has not been arrested

The Virginia Footlis ht the lead
ing Democratic paper of Storey has
as rule endeavored TO make fair
Eight on a solid foundation Of fact
but it is considerably in error when
it publishes the following:
Who appeared before the last
Republican Convention as a candi-
date for Lieutenant Governor, and
who was supported for that po-
sition almost exclusively by Union
men, who asked Getche!l's nomina
ton. and nothing but Getchell' 5
nomination, claiming they wished
to reward him for the sacrifices be
had made in their behalf, was
shelyed."
Mr.. Getchell was a candidate for
the office Of Lieutenant Governor,
but he did not appear before the
Convention. After the adjourn
ment the editor Of The APPEAL
met HIM on the streets and asked
him why he did net appear before
the Convention. He replied that
just before tho nominations for
Lieutenant Governor were to be
made, he discovered that he had
left his pocket book under his pill
low at his hotel He went back to
find it but it had disappeared. He
then came down the street looking
for some one from whom he could
borrow the money but did not
chance to meet any Of his acquaint-
ances. He then went back to the
hotel and on making inquiries for
his pocket book found that it had
been discovered under his pillow
and it wac returned to him. He
then FASTENED to the Convention
to pay the usual assessment,
but on arriving found that the vote
had been taken

Wells Drury.


A low down and underhandeG
fight is made against Wells Drury
candidate for Assemhlyman. 1t is
clearly to the interest of every tax
payer in Ormsby to have an active
live man in the Legislature and
one who knows the ropes.
Mr.. Drury has been in and about
the Legislature for five consecutive
sessions, in a journalistic capacity.
He fully understands the minutia
of the work and is posted on every
auirk and turn by which bills are
passed or beaten.
Can this much be said Of any Of
his opponents. The APPEAL has
nothing to say against any of the

no practical ideas of the inside

Some months ago you signed a

Ant;-Chincse League in this county
Have you supported Its principles?
Have yeu kept the covenant? Are
you still anti-Ch:nese in your sen.
timeEts? If so why do you SO err
sistantly support William Stewart
for the y. s. Senate? If you are
not too busy doing the work of the
corporations in this State will you
be kind enough to answer these
questions?

ent says:
Some months ago you signed a
covenent to support the antiChi

We never did anything Of the
kind. We affixed our signature to
paper in which we agreed to EN-
ploy no Chinese after April ist.,
1886. This agreement has been
kept by the writer since April list.
We have employed no Chinese in
any capacity although Col. Ellis
the gentleman whom the nominees

cal,y support for the Senate, has
persistently employed them.
Have you supported its princi-
ples?'
So far as it's political principles
are concerned We have not. We
did not sign any covenant to sup
port the political principles of an
organization which was to be bossed i
by scheming Democrats and rene
gade Muswumps. under the guise

Have you kept the Covenant?'
From FIRST to last aud nc man III
this county ever charged US openly
to the contrary.
Are you still anti-Chinese in
sentiment?'
We are.
IF SO, why do you SO persistantly
support William Stewart for the q.

First-Because in 1870 be de
