Judge Fleming is entitled to the
gnbernatorial chair of West Virgin
Ia, and he will occupy it during the
ensuing four years, fraud, Doodle
and Republican repeaters to the
contrary notwithstanding. There
is something remarkable about the
increased vote in many counties in
this state, and the Democrats mean
to find out the cause FOR it which
they will do, much to the disgust of
our Republican friends Twelve
years ago president of the United
States was seated who had never
been elected by the votes of the peo-
pie, but the experiment of repeating
the operation with reference to the
governor of West Virginia viii not
work, and we advise all who con-
template taking a hand in the at
tempt to abandon the idea at once,
as they will only have the trouble
for their pains, besides winning for
themselves the contempt of all hon
est people. The people of West
Virginia have honestly elected
Judge Fleming for their governor,
and they intend to see that he is
seated.-C Charleston Star.

There is disposition to try and
prevail upon the Governor to with
hold the certificate of election from
Hon. Chas. B. Smith, Congressman
elect, from the Fourth District
We don't believe Gov. Wilson can
be inveigIed into doing anything of
the kind. Capt. Smith was fairly
elected. On the recount of the
votes demanded by his opponent, it
was shown that Capt. Smith had a
clear majority of ID in the District,
This ought to be enough to end the
wrangle. We would like to have
seen Democrat represent this Dis
trict, but are not going to join in
the cry of 'fraud" to help keep
Capt. Smith out of his seat in Con
gress to which he was fairly and
honestly elected, simply because he
is Republican.

It is not desirable condition of
politics where one State stands as
the corsroIling power in Presiden-
tiaI election. Yet for twenty years
the vote of New York has been
struggled for and fought for by both
t.cgreat parties, with the knowledge
that her electoral choice would in all
probability control the National
Government for at at least four
years. 1t needs no argument to
prove that such a combination of
circumstances is not conducive to
the absolute purity of our elections.
All men are human, and politicians
are especially so, and it is not to be
wondered that in doubtful contest,
whose result might bring veal or
woe to them, these gentlemen would
be urged on to efforts not always
either commendable or legitimate.
New York will probably never
again occupy so important a posi-
ton in the presidential elections of
this country. In. a few years more,
almost certainly before the next
quadrennial struggle begins, there
will be four or five new Western
States carved out of our Territories
and that will bring twenty votes to
the electoral college. This number
added to the increased representa-
ton which the next census must
give TO the growing Western States,
will serve to disturb the power
which New York has heretofore
enjoyed, in deciding Presidential
elections. She will no longer be
the pivotal State, for the centre OF
political power will have moved
farther West, and the fight for the
political supremacy in this country,
instead of being decided by the peo-
pie who dwell within radius of a
few miles from New York City Hall,
will be settled in other and newer
fields of contest.

According to promises made,
wages should now advance and ev-
erybody be happy with plenty OF
employment. And as a starter in
this direction twelve thousand en-
plOyes of the Reading railroad have
had their time and pay reduced
twenty per cent. and six thousand
miners above Pfttsbm'g have been
discharged. This is the first fruits
of the great victory that was to
bring abundant employment to ev-
eryone at increased wages.

The immediate duty of Democrats
is to strengthen the hands of our
representatives in the present Con-
gress, SO that they may live up to
the highest standard of Democratic
faith and yielding nothing that
might be used to Democratic disad-
vantage in the comparison between
CIeveIand's and Harrison's admins
trations. 1t will always be borne
IN mind by our Congressman that
the result of the election of 1892
VIII chiefly depend upon the his
tory of the Democratic era that will
not be interrupted until March 4,
1889. Let us do well our part until
the end of our commission from the
American people, and leave nothing
for our opponents to trade upon ex-
cePt their own acts of performance
or commission when responsibility
rests upon them. 1t matters not
however wisely the Republican Ad-
ministration may be managed, Dem
ocratic principles are right, and will
prevail with the people. Let us be
ready to take advantage of such
mistakes as our opponents may
make. But let US rely upon the
strength of our own cause to win
the favorable verdict of the country
at the next Presidential election.

Z The estimates of the Secretary of
the Treasury, which have been fur
nished to Congress, ask for the APP
preparation 100000 to be used in
improving the channel of the Great
Kanawha river. The expenditure
of this amount should secure deep
and valuable waterway to the peo-
pie of the Kanawha Valley. The
commercial and industrial in
terests of the rich section of our
State are growing rapidly. The
money could not be expended bet
ter than in this work.
