Warren, Lincoln County. w. va

ED. ADvANCE:-As it has been
some time since | wrote you from
this place | again assume the quill.
We have had copious rains, and
good crops are the consequence.
The health of this community is
very good, but politics at present
are dead.
see communication in the AID.
VANCE signed Josh from a Dem
ocrat who is kicking against the cor
rupt primary, as all good men should
do, irrespective of party affiliations.
No good person wanted the prima-
ry forced, as il was, upon the coun-
~. All good men who hold the cleo
tive franchise pure should, and will.
unite and rebuke il at the polls and
defeat the candidate who was nom
mated by it through the corrupt
influences of money and whisky,
Notwithstanding the abuse Of Billy
Mansfield, as all good Democrats
are dead set against the results of
the primary; but there are certain
men who think they are bound to
support the nominee of conven-
ton or primary, no difference how
corrupt he may be, or how unfair
he may have obtained the nomina-
ton; and sorry am TO say there
are certain men who call themselves
ministers Of the gospel who have
the audacity TO get up in the pulpit
and face a congregation and pretend
TO promulgatc The principles Of
christianity, then on and before
election days use money to bride
and corrupt the elective franchise
and disgrace the ballot box. Such
men are worse than Judas Iscariot
and are stumbling blocks TO chris
tianity, hindrance to christian NOR
ais and are fast destroying the prin-
ciples and true merits Of decency
and good morals and the sound,
fundamental principles Of religion.
Let every good, honest independ-
ent Democrat; let thinking Repub-
Leans; let every man whatever his
political principles may be, unite
and wipe such heresy and hypocrisy
from the face of the earth and elect
Judge McGinnis to the bench
again. A. ID. r.

The Pole Raising.

The Republicans of this vicinity
had made preparations for raising a
Harrison x Morton flag pole here
last Saturday. A handsome pole
one hundred and seventy five feet
long had been secured and early i'm
the morning the country people be-
gan coming to town. BY noon
there was 4 larger crowd in Ceredo
than has been here for long time.
The day was lovely one and the
patriotic music furnished by our
own Ceredo Brass Band sounded
well and was calculated to make
loyal Republicans exert themselves
even more than they had done for
their party's principles-the pro-
lection of their homes and firesides.
About 3 O'Clock in the afternoon,
when the pole was about half way
up, one of the ropes broke and the
staff, from which the stars and
stripes would have soon floa,ed to
the breeze, fell to the ground and
was broken in several places.
Some Of the Democrats present
expressed their regrets that the &C
cident occurred; but two or three
cheered when it fell. Perhaps those
two or three imagined that if the
protection banner did not float from
Harrison & Morton pole last Sat
urddy that the members of the grand
old party would become discour-
aged and abandon the idea of erect
ing a pole; but if such thought
entered their minds and caused them
10 clap their hands in ecstatic bliss,
they will be doomed to disappoint-
ment. Republicans are not built
that way. They are believers in
and followers of the old maxim: "If
at first you don't succeed, try, try
again, and one week from to.mor-
row-if Providence permits-they
will erect taller and handsomer
pole than that on the ground last
Saturday.
Parties who examined the rope
after it had broken say il looked as
though several strands had been cut
with sharp knife so rs TO weaken
it; but we are loath to believe that
any political enemy would be so de-
void of principle as to endanger the
lives of his fellow citizens by doing
such an act. 1t is a great wonder
that no one was killed.
Mr.. L. l.. Stout, an able young
attorney of Huntington, was pres
ent and addressed the crowd at Z
o'clock p. NJ. He spoke principally
Of the Encouragement of State at
fairs, taking as his text parts Of the
Democratic platform adopted at the
Huntington convention. His speech
was well received by those who
heard it as was attested by the re.
peated cheers which his remarks
elected. Mr.. Stout undoubtedly
has brilliant future before him.
After Mr.. Stout's speech had been
delivered Mr.. "Ro" Burns, Of Cat
lettsburg, was introduced. Our
people are always delighted to hear
Mr.. Burns speak on the political
issues of the day, as he is well post
ed and such a good talker. He
showed Democratic Inconsistencies
in National and State affairs in Ian
guage plain and eloquent.
Let all the people come together
again in Ceredo Sept. Sth. We will
have more good speeches on that
day.

To the Honorable, the Judge Of the District
Court Of the State Of Nevada, in and
for Humboldt County, Your Grand
Jury beg leave to report that they have
examined six cases, and found two in.
dictments, one for unlawful possession of
an opium pipe, and one for being party
to fraudulent conveyance with intent
to defraud creditors. The other cases
were dismissed, the evidence not being
deemed sufficient to convict.
We find that number of persons are
held to answer before the Graad Jury
on fimsy evidence, filling the Jail at an
expense to the county, and, without pre-.
suming to interfere with the province or
authority of Justices of the Peace, we
would recommend that they exercise
more discretion in the discharge of their
duties as committing magistrates.
