HARDY DEMOCRACY.

To be Addressed by Kenna and Brecken-
ridge-Travers for Governor.
To he Editor Of The Register:
MoOREFIELD, W. VA, May 25th 1888
The Democrats of this region are beginning
to wake up and are putting on the "War
paint" preparatory to the great contest of
1888. A meeting is announced. for the 29th
of this month in this place, when Senators
Jno. E Kenna and Hon. W. G. p. Brecken-
ridge, of the ways and Means Commit
tee" of the House of Representatives will
be present and speak. An unusual degree
of interest is manifested in this meeting,
and these gentlemen will, no doubt, meet
with a very warm, hearty, aud enthusiastic
reception. They will also address meet
ing at Romney on their return TO Wash
ington from here. This will he Senator
Kenna's first visit to this valley. Our
people want to see and know him, as they
feel proud Of the Young Senator, and to
think it strange he has naver visited us be-
fore. He will find solid and united
democracy, ready for the great fight that
is approaching. There are no "kickers"
ncEc now. lucIo hcfci arc Nucu IL COulcb
10 0 contest with the common enemy Of
their party and their principles We feel
like it, and do some times, discipline some
of our own men, but we never desert the
flag of democracy in the face Of the enemy;
80 you can put it down rs certain, that,
We will roll off our usual, rousing, old
timed democratic msjorities, 10 all these
South Branch Valley counties this fall, for
Grover Cleveland and the full democratic
State ticket.
There has not, as yet, been much said as
to preference OF candidates, but / think
Hon. VIM II. Travera, of Jefferson County,
has good many friends in this valley
who would like to see him our next Cover
nor. This section has not had q Repre-
sentative on the State ticket for come time,
and there is a strong feeling among our
people, that we have been badly treated,
considering our democratic strength. How
would it do TO give as az least one place Gu
the State ticket? How would it do to
give US this place for Hon. Wilbur +.
Dyer, Of Grant County? Mr.. Dyer would
make q first-class Governor or Attorney
General, either. We do not not mean to
demand anything, ereept he right 10 rOte the
fall democratic ticket, but would simply
suggest to cur democratic brethren in other
sections Of the State, that, it would do TO
harm to offer us something of the kind
above indicated. Will try and give you

their said material that enables the manu-
facturers Of Europe to send here between
forty and fifty million dollars worth of
cloth year, representing not less than
l5O, DOC, 0C0 pounds Of wool, which we
neither grew nor sheared nor woye.
Nor does the gentleman know that his
coat is wool at all. Few men in this
House have any idea how far substitutes
are used for wool. In my district, in the
immediate neighborhood where / live,
within arsdius of four or five miles from
my house, there ia turned out product
OF about 81 0O0, 900 Of wooden cloths
so-called- You fstter yourself
that they are wooden cloths, and so
they are, except so far as cotton is mixed
In them; but the wool was worn by pre-.
vious generations Of sheep, and may have
bsen worn by two generations of men.
These cloths are made from rags, picked
to shred and fibre in shoddy- picker, and
then handled like wool. This cloth bears
the relation to other cloth that cleomar-
garine does to butter.
Do You ask what these rags are? They
are all grades, carefully assorted; they are
tailor's clippings from fine clothes, which
make good short staple" wool; but in
this thrifty age nothing is lost and tine
shoddy rags come back again. Said one
oil these manufacturers to me: ~ have
seen my old shoddy goods come back here
time and time again to be picked up and
made into new cloth" These shoddies
are the wooden clothes boastfully mentioned
on the other side of the House, that make
the cheap suits in which the protected
labor is dressed. Why, sir, the cloth
which the gentleman from Maine is wear.
ing may have made procession down
from the really protected msguates Of the
LAID, and been worn by the commonest
beggars shrinking from the sun.
Mr.. Millikeu-No, sir; this cloth was
made in Maine, not iu Massachusetts,.
Mr.. Russell, of Massachusetts, These
shoddy Clothes are sold cbesply enough
perhaps. Men may get their moneys
worth, for they are sold at prices that
would not buy their actual weight in wool.
The American laborer, who bears with the
farmer the real burden of taxes is not abe
to wear wcolen cloth, but wears the wool
that comes from the crop Of old
clothes.
1t might be, to the inquiring mind, fit
subject of philosophical inquiry to know
bow much of that 1875 suit of all cool
eheriot' is made, in the language of Mr..
Russell, from 'the wool that comes from
The crop of old clothes.

Poor Lo and the Major.

A certain fort in the far West, 30 the
story goes, was in command Of major OF
artillery, who was constantly lamenting
that his favorite arm could not be more
frequently used against the Indians.
Finally one day he took one Of the small
howitzers which defended the fort and had
it securely strapped to the back Of an army
mule, with the muzzle projecting over
the animals tail. With this novel gun
carriage he proceeded in high feather
with the captain and sergeant to
bluff on the bank Of the Mis-
souri,. near which was encamped band
Of friendly Indians. The gun was duly
loaded and primod, the fuse inserted, and
the mule backed to the edge of the bluff
The major remarked something about the
moral effect thr exhibition was likely to
produce upon the Indian allies, and
stepped gayly forward and applied the
match.
The curiosity Of the mule was aroused
He jerked his head around to SIC what
WIS fixing away there on his back, and
the next fcond his feet we're all punched
together and making forty revolutions
minute, Willie Tine gun WAS thiealeuiDS
everything under the canopy within q
radius of ten miles with instant de.
struction. The captain Skinned up the
only available tree. The sergeant
threw himself fat on the ground
and tried to dig q hole with his bayo'
net to crawl into, while the fat msjo rolled
over and over in agony, alternately in.
yoking the protection of Providence and
cursiug the mule Finally the explosion
came, the ball going through the roof of the
fort. The recoil of the gun and the wild
leap of thu terrified mule carried both over
the bluff to cafe anchorage at the bottom
of the river. The discounted party re-
turned sadly to the fort.
Shortly after the chief of the Indians
appeared snd announced briefly: "Ipiun
go home"
Questioned rs to why, he thus explained:
"lnjun vss' brave; help white man. Injun
use gun, use bow arrow, use knife; but
when white man fire OF whole jackass In-
jun no understand, no think right. IDjun
no help um fight that way"

A Winning Fight.

Congressman Russell has made for him
selfa national reputation on the same issue
on which he won the battle in the Worcss-
ter Congressional district. His speech in
the House on the Mills bill, which placed
him in the front rank OF debaters, has been
followed by a series of addresses before
MSS meetings in West Virginia, which are
equally successful as oratorical efforts
At Chariestown, W. Va the home of Con-
gresham Wilson, where he spoke on
Wednesday, his reception wea even more
enthusiastic than at his earlier appear
ances in the same section. The missionary
work of the tariff reformers, in fact, is
producing most encouraging results every
where. and meeting a reciprocity on the
part Of the public even unexpected.
