NEARING THE END.
The Murderous Hatfield Gang About
Broken Up.

The Hatfield Mccoy fued is near
ing the end, and the state will be
well rid of murderous gang who
have set the law ut defiance for years
The Hatfield gang, who lived in Lo-
gan county, and were captured after
having murdered score of people,
were tried at Pikeville, KY, last week.
A Telegram from there says:
For eight days past the streets
and court house of Pikeville, KY,
have been crowded with eager spec
tators, watching the results of the
trials of some Of the Hatfields. Wal
Hatfield was the first criminal who
was tried. He was prosecuted by
Hon. S. G. Kinner, j. Lee Ferguson
and Rev. Burns, and defended by
Hon. p. A. Cline, III. J. Anker, w. A..
Conley, N. A. Harkins and j. M.
York. Hatfield was tried as an ac-
cessory to the murder of the three
Mccoy boys, who were tied to a paw
paw tree and shot to death August
8, 1882. The evidence was against
him and he was sentenced to the
penitentiary for life. Next was Alex.
Messer. He confessed to killing
young Randolph Mccoy, who was
only 13 years of age, asking the mer-
cy of Judge Rice, and received a
lifetime sentence in the penitentiary.
Dock and Plant Mahon are now
on trial. The evidence is against
them and there is nothing short of
a lifetime sentence in the peniien-
tiary for them. The trial OF Elias
Hatfield, the man who, with Capt
John, Bob and "Bad Anse" Hatfield,
Jim Vance, Tom Mitchell and Frank
Ellis, on New Years night. 1888, it
is charged, assassinated the Mccoy
family, is in progress. He was
brought into court and confessed
that he killed Atari Mccoy, and
asked for the mercy of the court
The judge said the law had to have
its course. Sam Mahon is not able
for trial, as he has been sick for six
months. Everything is quiet and a
deep interest seems to be manifested
in getting the last of these terrible
tragedies. After receiving sentence,
the whole gang was taken to the
penitentiary ht Frankfort.

The Valley Virginian, the lead
ing and ablest Republican paper
published in Virginia, one of the
editors being Hon. Jacob Yost, late
Republican member of Congress
from the Staunton district, has the
following in regard to Gen. Mahone's
nomination for Governor: Last
year the Republicans would have
carried the State in spite of Malone
had he not used the funds placed in
his hands by the National Commit
tee, to defeat Langston, the Republi-
can nominee, and EJECT Venable, the
Democratic nominee for Congress,
whereby the Presidential ticket fell
off in that district 1000, and the
State was only lost by 1900. This
small margin he thinks now he can
overcome. He loses sight of the
fact that there are $4,000 or 10000
Republicans at least who voted for
Harrison and Morton who will not
touch Malone with forty foot pole.
He will find that tie result will YER
ify the assertion"
The Valley Viryinian this week
announces that it will not support
Malone. 1t says:
"The Virginidn will not support
Gen. Malone for Governor for the
following reasons:
"The body that nominated him
was not Republican convention
representing the sentiment of the
party in the State.
THE primary meetings were not
representative of the sentiment of
the party in the precincts.
THE county conventions were not
representative of the sentiment of
the party in the counties.
"They were all engineered by Ma
hone through his self-perpetuating
plan of organizalion to suppress
popular sentiment and record his
wishes in the nomination for Gov
ernor that was presented at Norfolk.
His nomination makes the issue,
the people against Malone, and pre-
cludes the discussion of the econom-
ic questions, State and National,
which might have been fairly and
properly considered during the cam
paign."

The feet that there are Democrats
connected with some Of the leading
Trusts in tnis country gives the
Republican apologists for these
trade conspiracies occasion to i'm
pugn the sincerity Of Democratic de-
nunciation of them.
But party is entitled to be judg-
ed by it's official declaration and or
ganized action, rather than by the
words or deeds of individual mem
beers. 1t is inevitable that money
seeking men of any party will take
advantage of the conditions created
by legislation or the lack of it to in
crease their fortunes. And SO there
are Democrats in many Of the Trusts,
just as there are Democrats who
take advantage of the tariff bounties
to make money.
But what is the attitude of par
ties towards Trusts? The Demo-
cratic Conventions this year have
repeated their denunciations Of these
combinations to abolish competition
and Arbitrarily fix prices. They
have called for the repeal of such
tariff duties as foster and protect
these conspiracies. And in this
State especially Democratic Adj
ministration has brought and press
ed to an initial success a suit against
one of the most offensive of them
the Sugar Trust. The Republican
Conventions, on the contrary, with
one or two exceptions, have been as
silent on this question as they have
upon Civil-Service Reform.
If the Democratic party is ready
to reduce or abolish Trust fostering
duties, and to fight Trusts with laws
whoever may be hurt, the fact that
Individual Democrats have sought
to profit by them should not count
against the arty.-N. Y. World.

Now, as the Contest Committee
has completed it's work, the next
thing in order is for Governor Will
son to call the Legislature together
to ratify the result and give Judge
Fleming the seat he should have
had the Fourth of last March. 1t
is now reported, however, that the
Legislature will not be called in
session till January next. 1t should
be called right away.

In the beginning of the investiga-
ton in the Contest between Fleming
and Golf the Republicans boosted
that they could show up more fraud
than the Democrats could, failing in
this they now cry fraud and every
thing mean. Why, certainly! moth
ing is more natural. Being foiled
in their plans of stealing the gov
ernorship, they now squeal. They
are caught and rat generally
squeals when it gets fast.
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1889-09-21

Every Republican you meet as.
serts vehemently that the majority
ofthe election committee "threw OUT
Golf votes without sufficient or any
evidence to warrant their so doing.
Upon what do these Republicans
base their assumption? They have
never read single deposition; they
have no more idea than the man in
the moon what the testimony is in
any contested case. Their opinion
is founded, it is plain, on nothing
but blind, crazy prejudice.

what does it mean? But the telegraph
emphasizes this view emphasizes this
fact. After second excoration of the
MALONE machines and full expose OF
MAHoNE'a political career the 2clcgraph
concludes its article rs follows
His (Nahone's) presence in the poll.
tics of Virginia has been productive OF
state of affairs that may, at tins critl-

man as William Malone.
So much for the opinions OF one re-
preventative Independent Republican
paper. now for those OF another The
Springfield Mass Republican says:
civilian Malone has his will. Tho
Republican party Of Virginia IS in hls

agents have packed has named him can

The present triumph Of this representa-

The comments Of our Independent
Republican contemporaries upon the
nomination Of MALONE for Governor Of
VIRGINIA on the Republican ticket are
very pointed. In fact they have a
double point. The Philadelphia Erc"i"9
Iclegraph, which wo are glad 10 SEE has
swung back 70 Ia position of nationality
on the matter Of treating southern ques-
tions. devotes over q column to the little
boss acceptance, and presents picture
of MAuoxE's character. objects, methods,
&c, that is Photographic in It's cxactness.
The Telegraph knows MALONE tho
roughly, and some Of its utterances are
rich, rare, and racy reading, coming as
they DO from northern paper. The
telegraph Is disguised with the MALONE
machine-no less Disguised that it was
with the BLAINE machine. Among other
things II says;
"The situation in Virginia now is sim
ply this The so-called Republican or
ganization has merged itself entirely into
the personal character and purposes Of
General Malone. The other men on the
ticket will scarcely DO heard Of in the
campaign and the so-called platform will
practically disappear as an element in
tie contest. The issue is whether Ma
hone and Mahoneism shall be restored
almost TO supreme political power in that
State"
The telegraph understands the situa.
tion in Virginia. Our contemporary
then proceeds TO give the Democrats of
the State encouragement by declaring
that the party has put up a popular
ticket and by appearing TO sympathize
with their determination 10 win at any
cost, and adds:
1.-THE Democracy know full well that
