Killed by the Train.

The passenger train on the X. &
o. railroad, which left here yester-
day afternoon, struck an old color
ed man named "KaIe" and an old
white man, whose name our infor-
mant had forgotten, on the trestle
just below the Poor Farm, killed
both of them. We understand that
the two unfortunate men were in
mates of the poor house, and that
the white man, who was demented,
left the poor house and started down
the railroad. The coIored man
knew that the X. & o. passenger
train, going north, was due in a
short time, and having seen the
white man on the trestle, went to
take him off, but before he could
rescue him, the train came along
and killed both Coroner Gates
and Constable Wilson left this morn
ing on a special train for the Poor
Farm, to hold an inquest on the re-
mains of the two men. From what
we can learn the railroad people
are not to blame, as the accident
was unavoidable The remains were
inferred this afternoon KanaVha

The Gubernatorial Contest.

Notice of u contest was served on
General Golf by attorneys for Judge
Fleming Wednesday. The reason
for this action on the part of Judge
Fleming is apparent TO every one.
After the returns of the late election
were in, and it was ascertained that
General Golf had received several
hundred more votes than any man
on his ticket, and that this large in
crease of votes was given him in
certain remote counties it was grave
ly suspicioned that gross frauds had
been committed, and Investigations
were at onee inaugurated by the
Democratic State Executive Com
mittee, and the closer the investi-
cation the more glazing were the
outrages. Upon the result of the
investigations the committee decid-
ed that those frauds must be brought
to light and exposed by a lawful in
vestigation which could only be
done by contest. This action of
the committee is sustained and
sanctioned by the Democratic par
ty. This contest is then not the
contest of Judge Fleming alone, but
the contest of the Executive Com
mittee and the Democratic party.
In this contest the Democracy relies
solely upon the illegal votes cast for
Gen. Golf and do not make single
technical specification in the notice.
But it charges that 1,042 illegal
votes were cast for Golf, and names
each person casting a fraudulent
ballot, and outlines the sources of
proof by which it is expected to
make the statement good. The
great majority of these illegal bal
lots were cast by colored repeaters
in Kanawha, Mercer, Mcdowell and
Fayette counties. These men were
natives of Virginia, butwere brought
to the polls in thinly populated dis
tricts and voted by the score. a
considerable number of fraudulent
ballots, it is also charged in the no.
! tice, were polled in Mineral county.

Some of the organs whose hearts
are strained over the the political
ostracism of Sambo in the South,
might with fair degree of consis-
tency cast an occasional glance upon
the situation of affairs in some of the
Northern States. Conceding that
it is very bad thing that the negro
preponderance in some of the South
ern States is held in political sub
jection-although it is a very good
thing-it would be hard to discover
the greater obliquity that exists be-
tween that and thesupprossion of the
Democratic preponderance in. the
Empire State and Connecticut.
New York has fairly earned her
title to be considered a Democratic
State, although on one or two oc-
casions she has fallen before the
battalions of Republican money
barrels, and yet in every election,
although the State may be carried
by the Democrats by from 10000
to 10000 majority. the Republicans
secure nearly two-thirds of the Leg
islature and keep two Republican
limited States Sanction, $. 1-le,-s- ~
misrepresent the majority of 5 the
voters of the State, not to speak of
the wrong committed upon purely
State questions. The same thing
occurs in Connecticut, with the
added outrage of habitually pre-
venting the Democrats from inaug-
urating their Governor, who may
be chosen by several thousand plu-
rality. In New York the anomoly.
results from the willful and indie
cent neglect of the Legislature to
make a fair apportiopment, while
in the Nutmeg State the perpetual
ton of an antiquated and unrepub-
lican law upon the statute books is
maintained for the Republican ben
eft. There is nothing easier in the
world than to discover and magnify
the mote in thy neighbor's eye,
while keeping up an oblivious atti-
tude concerning the beam in thine
own, but for downright and shame
less "cbeek" in this particular com
mend us to the bloody-shirt screech-
ers among the Northern Republican
organs.

After having wrestIed thirty
years with prohibitory liquor legis-
lation, the Maine Legislature is en-
gagged in its annual tinlsering of the
law to compel the people of that
State to be virtuous. This will be
accomplished--when those for whom
the benefits of the law are contem-
plated are all dead. Coming gem
erations will need further compul.
sorry acts to bring them up to the
ideal laid down for their fathers;
and they, too, will reach it about
the time their earthly affairs are all
settled up.

TO be Secretary of Slater
INC matter stands about thus:

The matter stands about thus:
Mr. Harrison would rather have
Old Birthstone in his Cabinet than
Sir. Blaine, but it requires moro
courage than he can easily summon
to say plainly that he won't have
him.
The battle of Waterloo is now be-
ing fought, but whether it is to be
Biaine's Waterloo-with all the
word implies-or Harrison's, the in
innate friends of neither know. 1t
is even doubtful whether either OF
the principles has very much conf
dence of winning.

The conduct of the Democrats in
the West Virginia Legislature so
far has been perfectly sensible. If
a decent regard for the wishes OF
the majority shall prevail in party
measurers, it will be significant of
the intention of the West Virginia
Democracy to claim its own, not by
beggarly majorities of hundreds,
but of Observation-Disclosures.

The Kanawha Matter.

The Supreme court on Saturday
afternoon rendered its decision in
the Kanawha county complications.
The decision was rendered by Judge
Snyder, aud is as follows
THE DECISION.
eEIe said that the only ground
presented in the petition of Judge
Flcmirs for writ of prohibition
against Judge Guthrie, compelling
chin to desist from the mandamus
process against the Secretary of
State was the injunction already
served upon that official. He
thought if the Circuit Court had
authority to issue mandamus, this
would not initiate against that
authority. 1t was true that the
court had repeatedly held that it
had jurisdiction over election Off
Gals and papers, but it was in cases
in which the papers were still in
the hands of the election officers
The returns in contest had passed
into the charge Of another depart
ment of the Government. The Sec
retary of State is a mere ministerial
officer. The law makes it his duty
to transmit the returns of the cleo
ton to the Legislature, and, that
body has the sole power to compel
him to do his duty if he refuses.
The whole proceedings brought be-
fore Judges Campbell and Guthrie
were improper. The Circuit Court
of Kanawha county has no power
over the Secretary of State in re
speet to said certificates, either by
injunction or mandamus. There
fore. on a proper petition setting
out the interest or title of Judge
Fleming as a contestant for the of
flee of Governor and asking writ
OF prohibition to prohibit the Circuit
Court of Kanawha county from pro-
cecding by mandamus against the
Secretary of State ito compel him
to return the certificate of election
as to Governor, the Court would
grant writ prohibiting said court
from proceeding in such manner.
But inasmuch as this petition fails
to set out any right in Judge Elem
ing except that he is plaintiff in a
bill OF injunction and merely asks
that the Circuit Court be restrained
from ignoring that injunction, the
petition is insufficient, and there
fore the motion to quash the rule
must he entertained and the petit
ton dismissed.
Tine Court further said. in-rr-
Spouse to a request of counsel for
Gen. Golf, that it should indicate
its opinion on the merits of the case.
That the proper proceeding would
be to go before the Circuit Court of
Kanawha and ask that the INDUCTION
be dissolved and the Secretary of
State shoulda appear before said Court
and ask that a peremptory writ of
mnndamus be denied. 1t would be
the duty of the Circuit Court to
dissolve the INDUCTION and dismiss
the proceeding in mandamus. IF
the Circuit Court refused to do this
an appeal could be taken.
The plain meaning of the decis-
ion is that the courts have no con-
trolovcr the election returns. They
are solely within the control of the
Legislature. That body is the final
cane:.ssing board, and it can act as
it sees fit with the fraudulent re-
turns made by fraudulent court

In addition to these, the notice
further alleges that nineteen legal
Democratic votes We're thrown out
in various counties, and charges
that this was done through fraud
and conspiracy in General Gotfs
interest. Lack of time prevented a
full investigation of the gross cleo
toral outrages committed blythe Re
publican managers in the Third
Congressional district, but the coun-
sci for Judge Fleming are confident
that incontrovertible evidence has
been secured toSclearIy. establish his
right to the seat. 1t is expected to
prove by competent witnesses that
every one of the l,O42 men named
in the notice voted Illegally and
voted for General Gotf.
The Democracy has the utmost
confidence that the result of these
proceedings will establish Judge
Fleming's election beyond shadow
of doubt. The committee would
not have entered into the contest
unless it believed it could make a
complete and unanswerable case
The honest voters of this State do
not desire that any man shall take
seat obtained by traud or corrup-
tion. Suspicious of gross fraud in
the last election are entertained and
have been circulated over thc3en-
tire country, and the good name of
our State and the purity of our elec-
tons demanded a full and fair in
vestigation. If General Golf shall
be able to refute the facts stated in
the notice of contest, aud show
clearly that he is elected by the
qualified votes of this State, there
is no one who would deprive him
of his seat, And until he does SO
the Democracy will claim that Judge
Fleming is fairly elected Iader.
