Democratic Incompetenoy.


The filibustering now going on in the
house of representatives to defeat the
worlds fair appropriation is one OF the
most disgraceful exhibitions of Demo-
cratic incompetency witnessed for many
years. The obstructionists are south
ern members and the Tammany delega-
ton from New York, and under the
rules OF the house the speaker and the
majority are unable to turn a hand.
Many days of the peoples time have
already been wasted and an expensive
session of Congress is being prolonged
wholly because this little band Of DEM
ocratic obstractionists have determined
to defeat the Worlds Fair appropria-
ton and to cripple the great national
exposition if possible. In the mean
time no sundry civil appropriation bill
can be passed and the wheels of govern
ment are being clogged.
The southern members claim to be
governed by a conscientious regard for
the constitutional regard they have
acquired since they voted for the
enormous appropriation for rivers and
harbors, for which they found no o
warrant in the constitution than they
find for the worlds fair bill. The Tam
many Democrats profess an equal adj
herence to strict construction, but are
really moved by their feelings of disap-
polntment that the fair was not located
in New York.
Perhaps there is something wen
more important back of the Tammany
opposition. The hopes of tho success
Of Cleveland and Stevenson lie largely
in the Democratic expectations in nli-
nois and other western and northwest
ern states. The defeat OF the Worlds
Fair appropriation by u Democratic
house would embarrass the campaign
there, and in tho minds OF many would
render it absolutely hopeless. 1t is
not an unreasonable theory, therefore,
that the obstructive actions Of the Tam
many representatives in Congress have
some connection with the threats OF the
Tammany representatives at Chicago,
their protests against Cleveland's nomi-
nation, and their predictions that he
could not be elected. Can it be that the
knitting process has already begun2
Whatever the reasons that prompt
tho obstructionists in their course, how
ever, tho exhibition is disgraceful and
Democrats are wholly responsible forit,
1t is a fight among Democrats. The
Republicans are to a man supporting
the provision for financial encourage
mont to the great industrial exhibition,
to which tho nations Of the world have
been invited, and in the success OF which
all patriotic Americans are interested.
That a Democratic house Of represen-
t%ativeS, with an overwhelming majority
at its disposal and unopposed in this
matter by Republicans, finds itself IN.

n. p. DAWN for Gorernor.

The representatives of the Repub.
lican party Of West Virginia, at Hunt
ington, have made no mistake in select
ing from out of the abundance Of excel
lent material Hon. Thomas Elmer
Davis, of Taylor county, for governor.
It was the unanimous desire of the
party that Mr.. Elkins should be the
standard bearer, because it was be-
lieved that he possessed elements of
strength that others did not possess,
but for good reasons Mr.. Elkins could
not see his way clear to accept the HON
OF. When this fact was impressed on
the minds Of the convention the next
thing to do was to choose from among
the most available men, and they were
not scarce, the man who could most
certainly present the strength which
would make victory certain.
In Thomas E. Davis they found such
a man. Mr. Davis is one Of the fore
most men in the State. He represents
the business interests Of West Virginia,
and is a man of tho people, s~pringing
directly from them; is q native West
virginian and carved out his own for
tune among the hills in the vicinity of
the home Of his childhood. As a sol
der in the war for the Union, as q mer-
chant and as legislator, hc has record
for patriotism, for straightforward bust
ness methods, aud for a conscientious
adherence to duty, of which any man
might be proud.
Mr.. Davis is an unassuming man, Of
genial temperament, aud has hosts OF
friends throughout the state. Every.
whero he is respected for his integrity
and his honor and his devotion to Re.
publican principles. With a leader Of
such high character, tho Republican
party will march to victory. Those ster-
ling qualities which have distinguished
him ~ q business man aud in public
life, and which have drawn to him
frisnds wherever he is known, will add
to his strength as the Republican can
didate, and insures that no will grow
upon tho people as the canvass pro-
ceeds. His nomination is an augury Of
victory.

nj. PeudIeton,s Nomination.

It seems that the opponents OF John
o. P~endleton's denomination were not
numerous enough to warrant them in
combining to defeat him, and he is
again the nominee Of his party for Con-
gress. That he received tho plum be-
cause he deserved it, no n for a mo-
ment believes. His OWN party organs
plea for his denomination was based al
most solely on the argument that it is
customary to give a successful candidate
q second trial, audit was for this reason
that tho objections of the wisest leaders
Of the Democracy were o%verruled, and
the nomination was made.
Mr.. Pendleton has been a failure as a
congressman. Even in a house in
which his party has an overwhelming
majority he hau cut 10 figure as a
leader, though representing the most
important district in the state. When
ever his vote has boon cast upon mat
ters of vital importance to the district,
1t has been against its interests, as, for
instance, his vote in favor Of the free
coinage Of silver and for the free wool
bill. There is no instance where he has
boon on the right side of any question,
but he has followed the lead of the bour-
bon element Of his party in Congress.
Possessing mono of the elements
of leadership when among leaders,
he has simply been content
to be a follower. Mr.. Pendleton might
remain in Congress for the next quar-
ter of a century and never rise above
that position. He is simply a creature
of a political accident, having ridden
into Congress on a tidal wave following
a campaign Of gross Misrepresentation
of the effects of a yet untried Republi-
can tariff law. He will not be reelected.
The declaration for free wool adopted
by the New Martinsville convention
will not strengthen Mr.. Pendleton's
chances Of election in those portions Of
the district where wool growing is a
leading industry, and this, together
with his record in Congress, marks him
as an easy victim for Captain Dovener.

SEVERELY INJURED.
e. 8. Gait Thrown From His
Wagon.

II
About II q. M. yesterday E. B. Gait,
of Salem, who has butcher stall in the
Fourth ward market house, was severely
injured by his two-horse team running
away on Commerce street and upsetting
a wagon loaded with bacon. His horses
became frightened at something op-
posite the city courthouse, and, in order
to prevent them from colliding with a
carriage in which there was several Ia
dies, he endeavored to turn them into
Campbell street.
In making the short turn the wagon
upset, catching Mr.. Gait under the front
running gear. One of the horses began
to kick, and had it not been for the
promptness of several citizens, who wit
messed the accident, Gait would have
been killed almost instantly.
He was eXtricated from his perilous
situation and borne to the sidewalk,
whore he tainted. About this time DR..
Staples came up and administered a
little brandy and ordered that the suf-
ferer be removed to bed. A stretcher
was procured and four mon carried Mr..
Gait to the residence of Mrs j. w.
Shields, on Salem avenue S. W., where
the ply stefan made careful eXamina-
ton to ascertain the extent of his in
juries. At last accounts he was resting
as easily as could BIO expected.

the corner of Commerce and Campbell

by boy named Ferguson. Owing to
the extreme carelesness of the latter,
who was paying little attention to his
business, one of tho mules of Tinsley &
Son was badly injured and the sufferings
of the dumb animal excited much COM
ment from those who witnessed it. One
of the shafts of the one horse wagon
penetrated tho right side of the mule
and was broken off. A veterinary sur
geon was summoned hastily and rem
dered all the aid possible and hopes to
save the animal. Ferguson was arrested
