our vicinity was visited last evening by

OF Mr.. A. &. Tucker, which took place at IL
O'Clock last night. Mr.. Tucker was one OF

calamity. lie had filed many positions OF

WANTS INFORMATION.

MIR. EDITOR while living in
the backwoods and probably not Of
you political persuasion, we get and
read the ARGUS every week, and
must confess that we very much
like the open, manly way you have
of indicating the rights of the pco-
pie. We may be mugwump, stall
wart or half-breed, can't say at
present which side of the fence we
are on, for there is u cloud lowering
over us, and we would like to have
the light turned on, that we may
see how so many curious things
happ en-. We have curiosity to
satisfy and while we have n curios-
ity to know why certain curious
events happen, would you be so
kind as to, through the columns of
the ARGUS in your own good Dem
ocratic way of explaining curiosities
to the sons of toll why it was at the
last term of the county court, that
that Hon. Body did not appoint
Jacob ID. Weaver overseer of the poor
for Kingwood district, when there
was a petition of quite a number of
Kingwood districts best citizens
asking Mr.. Viewers appointment,
presented to that body. Did the
people not know who they wanted !?
Was the petition fairly dealt with
by the representatives in court |?
Was this treating Mr.. Weaver right
or his humble petitioners, not to
honor his petition, or was it posi-
bic that the man who did receive
the appointment was backed by a
stronger and larger petition, and it
would be n great satisfaction to have
the light turned on, that we may
sec how this was done. Mr.. Wea-
yer is farmer, and an honest,
industrious man, and would be
very careful of the peoples money,
while we could not say otherwise of
Mr.. Snyder, but was he the
man the petition called for? Also
Mr.. Weaver was an old veteran, and
no truer, Drawer nor better soldier
ever shouldered a gun. Was it
possible that one mans influence
would be worth more than anothers
to an Office seeker of the future, or
has there been any log rolling going
on. Please answer these questions
