from the Wheeling Register.l

From the Wheeling Reglster.J
To the Editor Of the Register:
S1R:-I desire to correct, through
your columns, 4 wrongful impression
which seems to prevail over this State
with reference to the Tucker County
Democracy and Hon. VIM. L. Will
son. At our mass meeting, held on
the 30th day of June, resolution
was adopted instructing delegates to
the Congressional Convention to vote
" first for a Tucker man. if one be
before the Convention); second, for
a man in our delegate district, and
third for u man west of the noun
tains. AS appears from the above
one would naturally suppose the Dem
ocrats here were bitterly opposed to
Mr.. Wilson. This is grave mistake,
as nine-tenths of our Democrats are
solid for Hon. VIM. L. Wilson, and
two hours after our Convention, when
the drift of the resolution was seen,
it was no trouble to see from express
sions that Mr.. Wilson was the pref
erence of the Democrats of Tucker,
and had a resolution been presented
to instruct for him it would have been
almost unanimously adopted. a.

Encounter with a Drunken Man.

A special excursion was run on Sat
urday to Pen-Mar from points on the
Shenandoah Valley Railroad, and was
patronized by about one hundred and
seventy-tive persons. The return
through Hagcrstown was made in the
evening, and from this point south
the train was in charge of Capt.
Frank p. Cord. When the train was
running about three miles south of
this city, a drunken man, named
Henry Martin, of Bentonville, Va,
got into an alteration with several
companions, when he drew a revolver
and undertook to clean out the car.
He stopped the train and proceeded
thence to the engine and took refuge
on the pilot. Capt. Cord fastened
forward and was met by the terrified
men and was told of the situation
He ordered the man from the engine
but in return was greeted with a ball
from Martins revolver and which
grazcd his face. Being unarmed,
Mr.. Cord seized stone and, hurting
it with all his force, hit the man on
the head and knocked him to the
ground. An ugly cash was inflicted
and the man rendered temporarily
unconscious, but recovering he made
his escape across the fields, not fail
ing however TO discharge another load
at Mr.. Cord. The authorities were
notified and it is fully intended that
he shall be severely punished upon
his arrest. Globe.

are most dcleterious to the health of the con-
sumner. Not so however is this with the JOS

any other firm in America. They are up to
the times in the way of having the finest
equipped Brewery In the country. with all the
latest improvements in Machinery, &c, for the
handling and proper brewing of their immense
product But regards the ingredients of
which their Beer is made. they are decidedly
ancient. still using nothing but the best of BAR
ley Malt and the finest bohemian Hops, thus
retaining intact the only formula by which
good pure beer can be made. IL you use n
Malt Beverage, or If your Physician prescribes
a mild stimulant such as Beer for you during
the warm summer menths. then why don't you
obtain the best quality? YoI do not have to

Picnics by Rail.

The recent order issued by the
Passenger Department of the Balti-
more and Ohio r. r. Co. instructing
agents to sell excursion tickets at re-
duccd rates to small parties of 10 or
more, will encourage many of our
friends to form private picnic parties
for days outing in the many pleas
ant Groves and Parks within easy
reach on the line of this road, and
the short ride by rail will be not the
least enjoyable part of the days pleas
ures, particularly to the little folks.

Another case of horse stealing
suggests the propriety of an immedi-
ate organization of horse owners in
this county, as the most effective
means of putting an end to these dep
relations. An organization through
which, by means of a small per capita
contribution, the mails, telegraph
and printers ink are freely and
promptly used when horse belong
ing to a member is stolen, and pur-
suing squad of riders sent out forth
with in every direction, has been
found very valuable in some locali
ties, and we believe is what is needed
here at this time.

The primary election of last
Saturday was one of the most hotIy
contested ever held in this county
The best efforts were put forth in be-
half of all the principal candidates,
and the result will be found in part
in the ticket at the head of our pa
per to-day. The battle within the
party for local offices has been
fought, and we may say with far less
bitterness than we had expected
Now let the same earnestness be eX-

the ides of November will second for
old jefferson a larger Democratic
majority than ever before.
