what Our state Exchanges are Talking
About.

| governed and governed in style. We
want bang up government. EXTRACT
| from the speech of an imported RepuD-
! lican named Sheridan, at Wheeling, last
week. Precisely! The Emperor OF
Russia governs in style and he has a
bang up government. The Emperor OF
Germany governs in style and he has q
bang up government. The Emperor OF
| Morocco governs in style and he has a
bang up government. This Is the Re-
publican idea all through. 1t is the
J idea of the Old Federalists who wanted
Washington to declare himself a
King and make them Earls and Du kes
and Counts and No-accounts. This
strong government idea is Federalist
idea. Hence you hear Republican ora
| tors talking about strong government
Hence you find so many Republicans
who want to sprawl before Republi-
can king, In the attitude of serf
Hence this alteration of Golf in former
years. Hence this worship of the gold
| en- calf Elkins, since Moses has gone up
to the summit of the Judicial Noun
tain. Away with your "bang-up" gov
ernments. The people do not want
them. They want plain, an honest
government, a government OF the peo-
pie, by the people and for the people.
A bang-up government Is what they DO
not want and is Of the kind that should
perish from the earth.
West linton Reeord-Chairman Daw-
son and the balance of the committee
are anxious that the Republicans of this
State watch the Democratic assessors,
and are raising the cry "stop theft to
to hide their own acts. Never were
people more desperate than the Repuo-
licans of this State and they will bear
watching. They would do anything
that would help them to carry the State.
In those counties where the assessors
are Republicans, as IN Doddridge cGHn-
ty fol instance, it might be we'll for the
Democrats to take Mr.. Dawson's advice
and watch their actions closely. The
fac that name Is not listed will not OF
itself deprive q man of his vote, but it
might cause any amount OF trouble and
should be avoided, if possible. Let
every Democrat be certain his name Is
on the assessors list.
Weston Democrat. I1ltelLigencer
has Eeen enquiring about Mr.. Pendle-
tons whereabouts. Evidently that
paper does not read its exchanges in
the First Congressional district or it
would find them teeming with the re-
ports of his splendid meetings in Harri-
son, Doddridge, Lewis and other coun-
ties, where the voters are swarming to
him like hungry bees to the luscious
fruit. Yes, Mr.. IllteIligencer, the next
Congressman of your district Is among
his constituency telling them Of the in
famous measures your party is endeay-
oring to heap upon them. He'll come
smiling home in November. Don't
worry!
Grafton Leader - Col. William A.
MacCorkle is having rousing meetings
in all parts of the state. He is making
rafting canvas and makes friends
wherever ne goes; the fact of which our
up-street contemporary is trying to
counterfeit by calling to its aid one of
Grafton's noted "wags," who by the
way, is trying to "wag" the tail end of
the Republican ticket. You can call
Mr. MacCorkle "Billy the slugger" all
statesman in the race for gubernatorial
honors, Tommy the barber" will
hardly be ia sight.
Grafton Leader. Davis is
still travelling snd showing himself to
the voters. He still carries with him
his faithful interpreter, G. Wesley At
kinson, who translates the deep occult
thoughts hidden to others) Of the Re-
publican candidate for Governor on the
vital issues of the campaign. By and
by, the interpreter has vain hopes Of
getting pay for his services in the way
of being the candidates Secretary Of
State. But whisper it not to Ed. [. AL
len.
Tb7Grt's ValIey Nelos-The Intelb-
gencer says that without protection
there would be no city Of Wheeling. Is
it true then that the people OF Wheel
ing owe their prosperity to special priv
ileges accorded them by acts of Con-
gress? Is there not industry and
enterprise enough among the business
men of that city to support themselves
without taking from those who patron
lie them money for which they return
no equivalent?
BrdrtOn Denlocrdt-Hon. John o.
Pendleton is making magnificent cam
paign. He Is making thorough cam
paign in every county In the district,
and at all the meetings thus far held he
has spoken to large crowds. Next week
he will be in this county, opening Mon
day at Copen and closing Saturday at
Heaters. Let everybody come out and
hear him. All his meetings in this
county should be rousing ones,
Wetzel DemOcrdt-Hon. L. II. Stone
is making speeches as Peoples party
candidate for Congress. With all due
respect to DR.. Stone, he has no show
whatever and was only placed on the
ticket by Republican influence because
it was thought he could draw away
enough Democrat votes in Wetzel to de-
feat John o. Pendleton. He is giving
considerable comfort to the enemy, at
all events. But he is not In it.
KtnQloOod Argus-Last Saturday
night at Rowlesburg one of the largest
and most enthusiastic Democratic clubs
ever organized in this county was pre-
sided over by P. A. Coniff and started
off with ffty-four members. They will
have seventy-fve by next meeting and
have enlisted for the war. Let the good /
work 90 on. who'll be the next?"
Phtlippi Pldindedler-The scheme to
colonize this county with negroes and
others by the Republicans having failed
they are now trying to hire Democrats
to work in other counties. These are
facts and we are in possession OF the
proof.
West Union Record-There we're a
number of negro delegates in the Re- 1
publican State convention, but we
