til the sun goes down on the 9th OF No
vemher. [Cheers.] On November IA
1888, it said:
1.-TWO gentlemen from West Virginil
who were understood to be for Randall
came in and offered their allegiance TO-
day, to the surprise OF everyone, as II
was supposed that they would be for the
protective tariff candidate"
See that? Naturally supposing that d
Representative from West Virginia
would be for a protective tariff man.
"The Senator's from that State acted
with the Protectionists last winter and
on all occasions have been arrayed here
tofore together delivering the delega-
tions solidly for Randall.
"This announcement is somewhat oi
surprise, but it is popularly believed
that The ones referred to are Congress-
man Wilson, of the Second District, and
Gibson, of the Fourth District. Why
they should decide on such course we
are at loss to understand"
That is the editorial-part OF it. Well,
later on the country demanded such a
man as Randall instead OF Carlisle.
Carlisle, while q man OF brilliant
parts. holds to ideas which are most
dangerous aud most harmful to the best
interests OF the largest class OF our citi.
zens; especially istbis true Of West Vir-
ginia."
