DEHURs.

Mr.. EDITOR -
We wish to emphatically deny
that our town is worss in moral
stand point than it was twenty five
years ago, as announced from one of
our pulpits lately.
twenty-five years ago we had two
open whiskcy shops, men were seen
drunk on our streets every day, our
jail filed every night, during Court,
with persons arrested for drunken
ness.
Gambling was carried on in st
least dozen places day and night.
The air Was filled with vile oaths
from grey haired sinners as well as
the young.
Twenty-Five years ago men who
were considered pillars in the
church" kept whiskey in their
houses to treat friends. We think
the swell heads who advise our min
listers should 60 slow.
Twenty-Five years ago enough
children could hardly be gotten to-
gether to form a respectable sized
Union Sunday School. Now the
rooms will hardly hold the children.
twenty-five years ago ministers
Travelled over half the county to
preach on half the salary they now
get for stations.
Twenty-Five years ago our churches
were Old tumble-down buildings.
Now as fine, almost, as city edifices.
showing more money given to
churches nor than then.
One of the finest preachers and
best men in New York city Ssw was
twenty. five years ago a leader among
the bad boys, and our boys mar
know nothing about sin compared
TO boys OF that time.
Mr.. Editor, We will take no more
of your valuable space, but could
fill columns on sins Of Kingwood
twenty-five years ago that do not
erist nor, and those that do now
exist are rs per cent. less than then.
Yours, X.

abolt the late lamented Republi-

OF this same great State,
who is now under b o DIS o

say for Mathew Stanley Quay, who
is at the head Of your party and oc-
cupying q seat in the ". 8. Senate

tocratic power instead OF the con-

how can you explain tho crooked

World stand up and be countsd as

this villiany comes from one State,

Does the World want us to 90

Republican rascality? We have
only referred to one state but per-
hsps "our friends the enemy" will
not want to pursue the subject any

the COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT
Various Candidates Bs5bing Up
for the Ofiice.


OF County Superintendent are loom.
ing up and various names are men
toned in connection with the Office.
The many friends OF Ben LII. Elssy
are anxious to know whether he will
be q candidate for reelection, but
Ban keeps his own counsel and has
kept mum 30 far. The Principal
OF the Terra Alta Schools is said to
be the coming man, and ia already
being talked of by many Of the
teachers. Mr.. Chris Hartmeyer is
the man, and evidently has aspira-
tions in this direction. lie is a
graduate of the State University
and has had some experience in
teaching.
Then there is William Baldwin
Freeland, who has had his heart set
on the Office for several years past,
and who would undoubtedly make
q good Superintendent. He is a
member OF the Board Of Examiners
and teacher OF several years' ex-
perience. We believe he is still in
the ring. lie was slightly disig
ured, but not knocked ont.
Next comes Peter X. Smith, who
has probably had more experience
in teaching than any teacher in the
county He served as County Su-
pcriutendent one term, and is now
considering the propricty of asking
for a second term.
Duncan McRa is spoken Of also
as one who would not dodge the po-
sition If an opportunity presented
itself. Mr.. McRa is well known all
over the county and has taught
for several years.
l. r. Mattingly is also spoken Of,
and urged by number of the teach
ers to become ~ candidate. He is a
No. One teacher and holds four
years certificate. Has taught for
several years, read law and is one Of
the leading educators Of the county.
1t is oyer three months vet till
the election takes place, and how
the candidates will BIS determined
upon, is not known yst. So far no
politics have been considered in the
matter, and should be entirely ~
nored III the selection of school
officer. Whether the election will
20 OF quietly and the candidates
run independently or be named by
a political party, cannot be told as
yet. 1t depends on the interest
awakened and the fight made by the
candidates. Will somebody please
tell Ben Elsey that there are al :
ready half dozen men after his
brogans
We would advise All these gentle
men, however, to wait awhile and
see what the Legislature is going to
do with this Office. Some lcgisla-
ton will likely be enacted in rela-
ton to this matter. Some propose
to abolish the Office altogether, and
it is said that bill will be intro
duced to allow the SUPERB ntendent
$3.50 salary and 80 for each school
visited, and not more than two
schools to be visited per day. AS
there are about 100 schools in this
county, it would mske the Office pay
very fair salary.
