War under Gen. Grant, it is not unlikely
that Mr.. Harrison will compliment him
in the same capacity instead oi
Joseph r. Hawley, whose friends are
already putting him in training for this
position. AS for the officers, Secretary
Of the Navy, Secretary of the Interior,
Postmaster General and Attorney-Gen-
eral, Mr.. Harrison will have ample time
between now and next March to make
his selections from the numerous Repub-
lican patriots who reside between Lake
Erie and the Pacific Ocean. The name
of George F. Hoar is conspicuously
pushed for Attorney-General by the
Puritans of Massachusetts. Warner
Miller's name is mentioned as
possible candidate for Postmaster
General, but it is most likely
that Mr.. Miller will be honored with a
post abroad, either at st. James, Paris or
Berlin. The valuable services that Le-
land Stanford and his fellow colleagues
of the Pacific railroads of California rem
dered the Republican cause will be re.
ciprocated by the appointment OF one ol
their chosen friends to position in the
Cabinet. Altogether, the next three
months will afford the politicians abund'
ant opportunities to speculate upon the
manner in which General Harrison viii
disburse the many positions, important
and insignificant, which will be in his

are fire or six Elkins clubs along
the line of his railroad, he never saw
them or their leaders. We were
under the suppression that Mr.. FL
kins was posing as the embodiment
of man whose heart, whose soul,
whose hopes, fortunes and happiness
were wrapped up in West Virginia.
We regret to learn he is so little ac-
quainted with our people. Since he
takes occasion torspudiate acquaint-
ance with our people, We take for
granted they will not look to him as
the Moses to lead them out OF the
wilderness.
We predicted some time ago that
he would not be candidate for Con-
gress. To control the press is one
thing, to get the votes of the people
is different thing.

MR.. ELKINs.

The IRtelligeRcer had column
and a half manifesto, with circus
type headlines, by Mr.. Elkins, to
deny that he was colonizing negroes
on the w. V. Central to vote next
November, The average West Vir-
ginia newspaper is very kind to mil
lionaires. Mr.. Elkins says:
"This illustrates the desperate straits
To which Democrats are reSorting to save
West Virginia. They feel they are beat
EN- there. 1t cost them $4,000 to keep
the State in line four years ago."
If we recolleCt right it was Mr..
Elkins who said: at is only mat
ter of finance to carry West Vir-
ginia"
He says that the n. Y, Times,
having published the falsehoOd that
be was colonizing negroes, he wrote
to that paper a contradiction, which
it refused to publish. The Times
is a fair sample of "the business
press" 1t is run to make money,
and has neither pride of ancestry
nor hope of pOsterity.
Mr.. Elkins further says that the
W. V. Central and Pittsburg r. r.
is largely owned and controlled by
Democrats. For example, ex-Sena-
tor Barnum Of the National Commit
tee, ex-senator Camden of the Ma
tional Committee, ex-senator Davis,
recently on the National Committee,
Senator Germans brother, while
German himself is a large stock
holder.
We are constrained to say that we
would much prefer if there were
fewer railroad managers managing
our party.
He says there are not $50 negroes
on the road, and none Of them are.
voters.
Mr.. Elkins further says that while
a member of the National Committee
he made il a rule never to contradict
anything in print that appeared
against him because twas false, and
he takes notice of the present mis-
representation because out of poll
ties, and because it is calculated to
injure his business associates and to
bring into disrepute the good stand
ing Of his railroad.
1t is interesting to observe that
Mr.. Elkins states, that altho' there

1t seems perfectly clear that when the
Government, created and maintained by
the people TO 10 their bidding, turns upon
them and through an utter perversion OF
its powers EFFORTS from their labor and
capital tribute largely in excess of pub
lie necessities, the creature has rebelled
against the creator and the masters are
robbed by their servants.-CtereIdnd
Letter Of AeeePtGRee.
If President Cleveland be right,
then what must we say when can
didate for an office like the State
Senate runs on a platform that he
does net regard himself as under
any obligation to do the bidding of
his constituents.
Mr.. Knott acts on the assumption
that 1t is not the duty of a member
Of the Legislature to do the bidding
of his constituents. If his constitu-
ents wish law to prohibit the tree
pass bribery, and he railroad lobby
do not wish such q law passed, he
will not vote SIS the people desire
him to vote. There is no escape
from the dilemma in which Mr..
Knott is placed. If he intended to
vote in such a way as to accomplish
that which our people wish done,
then he would not hesitate moment
to give expression to his purposes.

vent discrimination between local
shippers and the bill to equalize

reason why our politicians arc so 81
lent on these subjects. Observe, no
one dares open his mouth against

RAILROADS.


We have advance sheets OF the
coming volume of Poor's Railroad
Manuel for 1888. In January last
there were 1892 miles of track.
13,0SO miles were laid in 'S7. The
total amount of railroad securities
are SIS, 1896, 1924. The stock rep
resenting s4,l9l, 56a, 0s9; the hal
ance being in bonds. The roads
collected last year for freight and
travel 1891, 385,l54. The operating
expenses were 5000, 249,47S. The
average stock debt per mile is $685.
32l and the bonded debt SIS, 29O.
Or the cost per mile as represented
by the securities is $46,611.
Reflect on the magnitude of these
figures. 1t is this power that dom
mates our politics. Recollect that
only an accident prevented Ives
from controlling tho b. d o. system.
Recollect, certain of the promoters
Of 5. V. r. r. had our Board Of SUI
peryisors to enter IN order giving
them 100000 Of Jefferson county
bonds when not one foot OF road was
built and only an accident prevent
ed the steal. Recollect that while
there are few high toned and hon
orable railroad managers, yet rs Il
rule these highways are controlled
by the shrewdest and most nnscrup-
ulous of Wall street gamblers.
Think on these facts and then you will

lature have come nearer going right

The wonder with me is that every

obeys the strikers of railroad kings
and refuses to commit himself to
the laws they have defeated every
time and which laws the people, and
especially the Changers, most desire.
The wonder with me is everybody
don't speak out and repudiste Duck
wall because he represents the most
scandalous trickery that ever occur
red in this section. There is much
quiet talk going on and much sup
pressed indignation, which for the
good of the party / 90 hope will
vent itself in some action to teach
our would be bosses lesson they
will never forget / say, with you,
that duty to party demands a repu
diation of the methods which nomi-
mated Duckwall and that the way
to step the Ringsters is to beat the
men they put up.
Let me say in passing, that was
disposed to discredit your statement
that Mr.. Duckwall had never ar
gued case in the Supreme Court.
The universal fairness of your pa
per was guarantee that you be-
lievcd you were stating the truth,
but thought you must be mistak.

Court, then in session in your town.

JudgeThurman came to NewYork
yesterday week and an immense au-
dience assembled to hear him speak.
Unfortunately, he had eaten some
thing which disagreed with him and
after speaking few minutes had an
attack OF cholera morbus and was
obliged to retire. The attack pass
ed off and he went to Newark, n. j.,
ON Saturday but after speaking there
for about a half an hour was again
obliged to retire from the platform.
The ovation he is receiving in every
part OF the country he visits demon
strates, not only his hold on the pop
ular heart. hut also demonstrates
that the American people appreciate
sincerity, integrity and brains. 1t
will be recollected that Thurman was
driven from the Senate by Jay Gould,
when he was defeated for re- election
in 1879.

THE TRIBUNE'S STATISTICAL
LEGERDEMAIN.

The New York Tribune's editori-
al, printed last week, took SO occu-
pations with the weekly wages paid
in each. 1t then gave the total sum
that one person in each occupation
would earn in week. This total
is divided by SO, and presented the
result as the average weekly wages
paid to all persons engaged in these
occupations.
Now, see how the Tribune's figures
lie. Apply the same method of COM
putation to four occupations and
notice the result. Suppose factory
employs four classes of operatives
and pays them as follows:

FLOODED STOCK--DUCKWALL-
KNOTT--LASHING THE PEO-
PIE.

SEPTEMBER 8, lSS8.-Being IN your
county for short time and not lind
ing you ut home attended the Ex-
hibition ut Morgan's Grove.
There was quite a considerable
show of stock of all kinds and be-
ing lover of good horses and cat
tie, was delighted to observe the
improvements your County is max
ing in this line. There were on ex-
hibition some fine stations (of the
Percheron and Clydesdalc stock;
also many colts; halt-breeds with
some strain of trotting blood, show
ing up every now and then.
Your county is as well fitted to
raising fine stock as any country (ex-
cept certain sections OF kentucky.
All you need is for your farmers to
make up. their minds to improve
their stock and then the trouble is
over Let them breed to horses OF
merit and in their respective class
es,-draft, driving, trotting, and rum
ming and let them stop breeding to
scrubs" that some neighbors may
own, because cheap. Colts from
good horses bring nearly double the
price of colts sired by scrubs"
This is a matter well worthy the at
tention of Jefferson farmers.
All the politicians and candidates
were on hand. / say all, because
there are so many. Among them l
noticed the nominees for State Sen.
ate and for Judge. Old Mr.. Duck
wall was doing his best. l was told
that he and Knott are posing as
monuments to the ventings Of
spleen by Camden and Faulkner.
This is cute dodge, but will not
win. 1t is too thin. Everybody
knows that Duckwall was picked
out to punish the Kickers. Judge
Beckwith endorsed the Kickers, and
the order was passed along the line
to beat him. Knott was conspicu-
Gus as one of the strikers for caucus
rule, instead of people rule. So
when it is sifted down, those monu-
ments of spleen become monuments
of false pretenses. | don't know
how it will turn out, but | judge
from what see and hear that think
ing men will say to themselves
about like this: 1T won't do to
run politics on the principles OF a
faro bank, which are that any cheat
ing is legitimate if not found out
before the money is paid over"
The Ringsters were silent as the
grave and no outsider suspected
their game until things were fixed
to nominate Duckwall, and having
nominated him they depend on lash
ing the people into submission.
They were more silent than any
grave until Knott, RUNNING AS A
GRANGER, was nominated and they
are now trying to bull-doze him
through. Their cry is,-"If we did
cheat, YOU must swallow the cheat
or else take Republicans" Will
somebody tell me what Republican
Judge or Republican Legislator
can do, or will do, different from
what these nominees will do? III q

The circumstance West Virginia
Is in danger as regards the Legisla-
ture and State ticket, is no sign that
she is doubtful for Cleveland. The
President must not be weighted
down with the unpopularity of the
Ring. The State ticket is one thing,
the reelection of Cleveland is anoth-
er thing. Many true Democrats
will scratch the State ticket and
vote blank, who will exert them
selves to gain votes to reflect Cleve-
land. The Ring expects Cleveland's
popularity to pull them through.
This is the only trouble.
