mercantile business to Mr.. L. W. Albright,
has about concluded to locate at Barnes
vile, Ohio. Mr.. Wright is a gentleman in
every respect, and we wish him abundant
success.
The Rev. E. H. Owen, our NJ. f. pastor,
IS favOrite with everybody. We learn
that he desires to be transferred to the
western conference.
The news of Wilson's nomination was
received here with enthusiasm. OF course
VIM. q. Brown was the choice of the ma
Jolity Of Democrats, but Wilson will re-
eelve more than the full party's vote in
this county. We think Wilson n strong
candidate and he should give US a rOusing
speech sometime during the campaign.
The Democrats are for Wilson first, last,
and all the time. The Republicans can't
say one iOta against him, and since he
wiped out the Huntington matter there
can be nothing said aginst him.
We now will attempt something that We
know very little about, and something that
we can't find out from any of the sealed
mouths of the directors of the KingwOOd
railway, and that is, how soon our railroad
will be completed. 1t is rumOred, and
there is some truth in rumOrs sometimes,
that they have, or will in time, mortgage
the road to the B. & o. if they will equip
the road ready for business. A B. q o.
man was here short time ago, and this
substantiates the rumOr. Time, money and
labor have been expended in this enter
prise and the people of this district who
voted S25, 900 to its capital stock are begin
ming to enquire into the matter. The
company has had great
deal of trouble about their road. The
stockholders did not come to time as they
should, in the way of paying up their as
sessments, and some of the people refused
to give rights of way after they had prom
ised, hence course OF law had to be gone
through with. Then Barrett < McKeever
failed, and that put them back again. We
hope the road will be here before cold
weather.
As the campaign opens up, candidates
are beginning to trot out. So the thing
begins to look as if we were going TO have
Il red hot Off-year unpleaSantneSs. There
are already four candidates for the small
office Ofsurveyor, who is only to be elected
to fill out vacancy. The can
didates are Messrs. A. JudsOn Elliott, of
Terra Alta; ID. NJ. WOtring, OF EglOn; n.
W. McMillen, of MasOntOwn, and Mr.. Jul
Illus X. Monroe, of KingwOOd. The first
three are Republicans, Mr.. Monroe being
the only Democrat yet in the tug OF war.
He is a son of Col K. W. Monroe, and is Il
young man of sterling abilities, and best
Of all, will make it warm for the Others.
Mr.. Elliott does not seem TO have very
many friends. He was lately postal
clerk, and the people desire to give it to a
man that is not continually at the
public crib. MeSsrs. WOtring or McMillen
will be the choice of the Republicans, and
Mr.. Monroe of the Democrats. As for
the House of Delegates, Glover and
FOrtney will be sent back. Al
though Jas. NJ. Shaw, Jas. A. Brown, j.
r. McCrum, John p. Jones, VIM. ID.
Titchenell, Col. J. d. Rigg, L. \. Orr,
md host of others will consent to 60"
To show the REGISTER readers the qualiti-
'atiOn of Mr.. Titchenell, we will just say
hat he was in town short time since, and
began on fellow in this wise: perhaps
YOU don't know who am? | am VIM.
d. Titchenell, candidate for the House Of
He meant House OF Dele
gates. but don't know the difference III
you want 4 recommendation of me just ask
NeSsrS VIM. Dawson or John 7. Jones.
Oh, there is going to be some fun, and we
shall keep you posted.
