No matter who is seated as Gov.
ernor, the Republicans have tri-
umphed in this contest. Democrat
&c leaders and newspapers charged
that there were from five to fifteen
thousand fraudulent votes cast in the
State; that all law and justice had
been outraged in the election; that
there was open fraud and corrup-
ton, &c. After the most extraordi-
nary effort, all this is proven false,
and that honesty prevailed at the
last West Virginia election. or this
all decent people should be proud.
The fact is this is the death strug-
gle Of the Solid South, and she dies
hard. This contest was inaugurated
by a set OF demagogues who
care nothing about the right or

prevail and they care not how much

T. T. McDougal has been cx-
horting the people of Ceredo to put
up the hogs, to cut down the dog
fennel and to kill the Aeas.-Ritchie
ReUeillc.
The exhortation should be heed
ed, too. Ceredo is away behind
other towns of its size in these mat
tiers. We do not think it would be
expedient to cut all the dog fennel
in town down, for that would be
an everlasting job almost, but we
do think it should be cut down on
either side of the side walk and in
front of residences. Other towns
compel the owners of hogs to keep
them up; why not Ceredo? But
the most difficult job Of all would
be that of killing the heas. These
lively little creatures are as numer-
Gus in Ceredo as Republicans in
Kansas, and are as seldom caught
as Wayne county Democrats are
voting the Republican ticket. How
ever, when they are caught, they
are Immediately slaughtered.

Hon p. w. Morris is a member

Should there DC Il majority report

woald then be as to the votes about

Surprising this issue to arise at the
present stage, outside of Brooke
county, it would only be as TO diff
ference of about fifty votes. Just
now the appearance is that the com.
mitiee may not disagree about two
hundred votes in the whole State.
In other words, the whole matter
for the Legislature to try will be a
difference of about couple or three
hundred votes. OF course it can
go over the whole matter, but if il
does it will sit at least a year. This
is a violent supposition, however,
and an idea never contemplated by
the trainers of the law governing
contests. If the Legislature is to 90
over the whole thing, there would
be no necessity whatever for a com.
