more disleputable campaign has never
been made in my county in West Vir.
ginia than the ono now being waged
in this county against Capt. o. NJ,
Clemens. the Republican candidate for
Circuit Clerk. IIe Ia man OF high
honor and great popularity. His elec.
ton was admitted by Democrats gener.
ally. Ills opponent, W. P. Rathbone,
had no possible show, for there is not
Hhow, for there is not moro popular
man in Wood county than Capt.
Clemens. JE
Fully recognizing their desperate con.
dition Mr.. Rathbone's friends went into
desperate scheme. Capt. Clemens Is
tho present Circuit Clerk. Charges OF q
aerions character were made against L.
". Cloustep, Mr.. Clemens Deputy
Clerk, and Democratic attorney,
George W. Neale, was employed to in.
ves'igate. The investigation was made
by him aud he gave Capt. Clemens n
letter containing this statement:

This letter gave the schemers a blow
on the head which they were not pre-.
pared for. OF course Rathbone was
much dissatisfied with tho outcome. The
following denouemens comes with au.
thority from prominent Democrat OF
Parkersburg. He says that Rathbone
got Editor Homer, OF the Sentinel, to in
terview Neale. After some converse
tion Nea!e said he would write up an in
4orview. He did so. Horner refused to
publish it. When called on by Neale
for an explanation Homer said he in.
tended to send Neale's communication
to the Attorney Genera! and have him
removed iron the cage. Neaie called
Horner n gcoundrel and Horner returned
the compliment. A third party inter-
ferred as they were clawing at each
sother.
The Democrats have gotten them.
Beives into a pretty mess over the mat
ter, everybody seeing plainly that the
whole business is disgraceiut and
