WILLIAM L. WILSON.

A recent visit to various portions OF
West Virginia reveals the fact that
the popularity Of our Congressman,
Hon. William L. Wilson, is not con-
fined to his own district. In all Sec
tions of the State are heard good
words for him. In the other end OF
his district no man is more highly
spoken Of. while at home, where he
is best known. he is looked on with
equal admiration.
1t is safe TO say that Mr.. Wilson
will be renominated by reclamation.
From every part Of his district the
call for him is earnest and irreslstl-
BILE. Publicly and privately his fit
ness for the place and the desire for
his denomination is heartily affirmed.
At Morgantown, u couple OF weeks
ago, at banquet at the University,
Hon. John Il. McGraw took occasion
to refer in graceful and eloquent Ian
guage to Mr. Wilson's public services.
The applause that greeted the name
of our distinguished Representative
fairly shook the building. At Charles
ton the other day an enthusiastic and
well-known Democrat said: "William
l.. Wilson is one of the greatest men
in West Virginia-he is one of the
best men in the United States. l
throw up my hat for him"
Above all, Mr.. Wilson deserves his
popularity. Although he has already
served several terms in that famous
city of Washington, with its count
less temptations and distractions, he
is without stain. His spotless private
character is only equalled by his I'M
sullied public reputation. a states
man in the broadest sense, he is
scholar and "a gentleman. Always
afraid to touch that which would
contaminate, he is as courageous as
a lion in attacking wrong and resist
ing injustice Confessedly mo politi-
cian," he is ever at the front as an
able defender of the principles of his
party and an advocate of the welfare
of his people.
The Democrats of this district and
of this State are indeed fortunate TO
have such leader. Let him be re-
turned to Congress as long as states
manship is needed and as long as the
principles of truth and justice need
an advocate. Let him be retained in
his present place until the people
shall say, Come up higher"

\ RECENT issue of an alleged Dem
ocratic journal, published at Charles
town. contained virulent assault on
State Senator Knott, for reputed OPP
position to measures in which his
farmer constituents were interested.
A writer in the Shepherdstown REG
ISTER strongly defends the Senator,
and shows from the Legislative record
that the charge is baseless. During
the two sessions of the Legislature
that he has served, Senator Knott
has always shown himself the earnest
and consistent champion of every
measure of practical benefit to agri
culture. Standing at the head Of the
State Grange of West Virginia, he
was entitled to speak as representa-
tive of the farmers, and he was never
recreant to their interests. Senator
Knots record as faithful, industri-
Gus legislator cannot be assailed.
The unjust assaults on him will hardly
shake the confidence of constituents
who know his sterling integrity

Waterbury evening Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1887-1895, 1890-10-03

CONGRESSMAN CALDWELL of Ohio on
Monday had a bill passed in the house
prohibiting the printing or lettering of
any advertising matter on the American
flag. His object was patriotic one, in
tended to preserve the flag from i'm
proper or mercenary usage. On Wed.
nesday hurried message came from
the headquarters of the republican cam
paign committee not to let the bill get
through the senate. The reason was
that the republican committee had just
had printed hundreds of thousands of
compaign handbooks, the cover of
which represents an American flag.
across the flag is printed the words:
1.-THE Grand Old Party-True to the
Flag" Had the bill became a law it
would have prevented the circulation of
these handbooks and the committee and
the lottery company would have found
themselves in the same boat. Accord
ingly the bill was shelved until next
session, when the time of usefulness of
current campaign documents shall have
passed.

Soldiers who Fought with the Count
Greet Him Now.
New York, Oct. S.-The White Star
steamer Germanic, which left Liverpool
on September Gath and Queenstown on
the 25th, reached New York early this
morning. She had on board His Royal
Highness Louis Philippe Albert, Prince
d'Orleans and Comte de Paris, the head
of the royal Bourbon family of France.
The Prince, who modeStly prefers to
be known as the ComtS de Paris, is
accompanied by his eldest son, upon
whom he has conferred the title of
Prince d'Orleans, and by his venerable
uncle, the Duo de Joinville. The rest
of the roy al party consists of the suite
of the Count and Q small retinue of
servants.
The royal visitors were welcomed
down the bay while the steamer was
on her way to the city by Collector of
the Port Joel B. Erhardt in the name of
the President and people of the United
States.
By express direction of the Secretary
Of the Treasury the Collector was re-
qqested to extend every possible cour-
tesy to His Royal Highness upon his
arrival in the country, and to facilitate
the landing of himself and his dis
tinguished friends and their passage
through the Custom House ordeal,
which even princes of royal blood must
undergo.
The Count returns to this country to
revisit the scenes of his battles and
campaigns with 'Iittle Mac" to see his
old comrades in the field, and perhaps
to add some interesting chapters to his
remarkable book on the American war.
The committee of veterans who met
the Count and his party were General
Daniel E. Siokles, General Daniel But
terfield, General Henry w. Slocum,
General Martin T. Mcmahon and Cen
eral Horace Porter, all of whom either
| served with him on McClellan's staff or
were associated with him in the Army
| of the Potomac.
