West Virginia argus. [volume] (Kingwood, W. Va.) 1877-1946, 1889-11-14

WE send out this week some state
mcnts to our subscribers who are
behind on their subscriptions for
a year or more, so that when they
come to court they can bring us
along a little Of the needful. We
have bought the entire subscription
list of Mr.. Kildow and this money is
due us and we must have it in the
business as it takes money to run a
paper. We dislike Yery much to
dun our friends, but we want them
to know that all money due the AR
GUS is payable to us and we must
have these old debts NIL settIed nm by
the FIRST If January. W. bought the
books Of Mr. KIldow partly to oblige
him, partly to accommodate our
subscribers and because it was nee
essary in our business. We can
collect this better than Mr.. Kildow:
our friends can settle with us easier
and there will be much less danger
OF mistakes and Misunderstanding.
There were lots Of little sums due
here and there that in the aggregate
amounted to q good deal and Mr..
Kildow could not afford to loose it
and still it would be a great deal of
trouble to collect It and a great N
noyance TO our subscribers to re-
NIT such trincs and so to save trou.
bic al around we bought the whole
business. We hope our friends will
appreciate this and be prompt i'm
thor remittance. Where YOU arc
behind for q year and more you
mD| remit as something on sub
scJiPti0n, as this large additio nal
oni.y Eas crampod us in our bust.

S:xty-seyen colored gentlemen
who voted for Nate Golf in Mercer
county, this State, were traced to
Tazewell county, Virginia, and
were found to have registered there
to vote for Billy Malone. And
still our Republican brethren will
say there was no illegal votes cast
for Nate Golf We suppose this is
what the Err and Journal calls
"frod," because sixty-seven Virgin
ia colored men were not allowed to
vote for Malone, as the Virginia
authorities were notified that they
voted in West Virginia.

James y. Neal, the chairman Of

A PRESS dispatch says: GA large
number of Ohio Republicans who
sincerely desired the success Of their
ticket scratched Foraker to reduce
his majority, and thus humble him
by running behind his ticket" We
rise to remark that the scratching
and humiliation was a complete
success, and hope their scratching
may never grow less.

WI want our Democratic breth-
rem to help us circulate the good

up clubs for the ARGUS. We know
times are hard and money scarce,
but the Republican party having
made an assignment in favor of the
people it is Il sure sign of good times
coming, and if we keep up the can
nonadiJg there is no doubt Of the
final result. If our Democratic
brethren will furnish us the ammuni-
ton we will fire it into the eremy's
camp. Let every reader show the
ARGUS to his neighbor and friend
and ask him to subscribe for it..

AN article has been going the
rounds of the newspapers, headed,
"a wild man at large" and warn
ing the people to keep out of his
way. There is no need of alarm.
The supposed wild man is Joseph
Benson Foraker, late Republican
candidate for Governor Of Ohio.
He is now perfectly harmless, if he
was running wild for a few weeks
in Ohio. The people of that State
have shorn him of his foreclosures.
