We arssnot the champion of the
coIorcd voters by any means, but
whom we see them being driven to
the polls like slaves, by their white
masters, year after year, without
even the sembIance of recognition
by the Republican party so far as
the eolored man is concerned, our
sympathiesfor these badly treated
Republicans are aroused, and we
speak out for fair play; and if the
negro voters have any manhood in
them, they will make the demand
for recognition at the Republican
convention, and if refused. will re-
sent the insult offered their race.
The Gazette may look upon the
negro as fools, as it intimates they
are, but the REGISTER does not. We
have warned these men, and if they
do not heed it is not our fault. We
want them to demand their rights,
that is all. 1t may be mixing up a
little in your "party affairs" but
that is our right and our business.

The four silver States are becom-
ing little doubtful to the Republi-
cans. The plank in the last Repub-
lican National Convention which
condemns the Democracy for what
they termed demonitizing silver led
the free advocates to believe that
the G. o. p. wonld advocate that
measure, but the action of the Re
publican members of the present
Congress dispeIled ali such antici-
pations. Senator Teller in recent
speech warned his party of the COM
ing danger, and some lacking will
have to be done to keep the silver
States in line.

Even the postal system is being
drawn into service in the wild rush
the republicans are making for
continued supremacy in national
affairs. Even pious Wanjohnny
maker has drawn on the postmas-
ters of the country for list of the
doubtful voters in their respective
sections; "weak kneed Democrats
and weak kneed Republicans" as
they term it, so they will be ena-
bled to reach them with their trashy
tariff literature. If you receive any
such stuff through the mail just
bear in mind that your name has
been sent in by your postmaster for
this purpose. The G. o. p. is re-
sorting to desperate ends to carry
its points.

Will the Gazette tell us why its
party is so greedy? The white men
in it, are largely in the minority in
this county, and the whole country
as we'll. The colored voters make
the Republican majorities in this
county, and in nearly all the Re-
publican States in the Union. Then
by all means your party should put
colored men on their county and
State ticket. Give the colored men
a chance. They have stood Loyalty
by the Republican party ever since
they were made voters. Have you
the courage to demand that the col
ored voter shall have a fair divide
of the Offices?

Some of the Republicans in the
mountain counties of the State are
anxious to to fuse with the Farmers
Alliance. Evidently they are not
as confident as some of their breth-
ern out here who profess to think
that West Virginia is Republican on
a straight ticket. If this fusion
takes place it will be amusing to
see some of our exchanges, who
have been pouring hot shot into the
Alliance for many months, change
the direction of their guns. AS it
has for long time been "anything
to win" with the Republicans, one
need not be surprised at anything
that party will do.

The County Convention.


The Democratic Convention which
assembled in this place last Satur-
day, was one of the largest and
most harmonious that ever met in
the county. 1t was presided over
in an able and satisfactory manner
by Hon. Chas- E. Hogg- The ad-
dress of Mr.. Hogg in accepting the
Craftsmanship of the Convention,
was able and conclusive, and was
greeted with applause and enthusi-
asm.
When the Convention got down
to work, everything moved smooth
ly, and there was not the. slightest
jar between the delegates upon any
proposition. The great out-pouring
of the Democracy augured well for
the Democracy, and showed that
the party was in good fighting trim
and ready for the fray. The Dem
ocrats present all reported the party
in good condition in their different
localities, and all were deeply i'm.
pressed with the belief that the
Democracy would redeem Mason
County this year from Republican
misrule. Let the good work go or
from now until the election-every
Democrat doing his whole duty
and victory will be to the Demo
Gratis in November.

want to remind the Herald that
Elkins will not be elected Governor,
and that if he is, he will not be the
first Republican Governor, as there
has been several of them since the
State was formed. And further,
that no one will dispute his title to
the Office if he is elected.

Give us Good Leaders.

Ullt Us UOOu lcluelHs
The Democratic party is the party
of the masses-or it is nothing.
There is no compromise between
democracy and plutocracy. 1t is
fight to a finish. The Republican
party is the party of plutocracy and
monopoly, and is the natural home
of all time-serving politicians who
hold policy above principle and
would seek to advance their own
personal interests by having the
great party of equal rights coquet
with legalized injustice.
Democracy is founded upon prin-
ciple. tits greater than any ono
man or set of men. 1t means free
dom of the individual, and death to
all forms of legalized encroachment
upon the natural rights of men.
Office getting is mattel of very
minor Importance as compared with
the grand fight for principle, the
magnificent battle for political and
economic truth that Democracy is
constantly waging.
And while it is true that Democ-
racy cannot compromise in any way
with Misunderstanding privilege it
is equally true that it cannot at any
time or under any circumstances
afford to countenance small methods
or questionable practices. The
truest Democrats, those best quail
fed for safe and reliable leadership,
will labor increasingly to place and
keep the party upon a high plane.
1t is lamentably true that at times
the party is liable to be bnrdened
by few men who would drag it
from the exalted position it should
occupy, aud would seek to convert
the party machinery to their own
personal service. This has been the
case in some other States and is pos
sibIy true in this. If so, it is the
duty of every true West Virginia
Democrat to be on his guard and to
sec to it that the machinery of
the Democratic party of West vir-
ginia shall not be so utilized.
Let US make Preparations for an
aggressive, clean-handed and sue
cessful fight. Let the party repudi-
ate back-cappers and conniving
self.servers. We cannot afford to
enter the fight with leaders in
whom we have not the utmost
confidence. We must have active
leaders who are above suspicion;
leaders who do not enjoy their spare
time in hobnobbing and discussing
the private character and belittling
the political services of fellow Dem
ocrats; leaders whom earnest, work
ing Democrats may feel free to con-
suit; leaders who will not find it
necessary to resort to methods that
may bring reproach upon the party;
leaders who will not mistake them
selves for the party and their own
aggrandizement for the cause; lead
ers who have more faith in Demo-
cratic principles than they have in
the whispered injunctions of mys-
terions characters who enjoy the
confidence and respect of no one;
leaders who can lead, and whom
all true Democrats will gladly follow.
There are many such men in the
Democratic party of this State.

Exclusion Act.


Exclusions Act.
OMAHA. May 1.-THE action of Presi-
dent Harrison in signing the Chinese ex-
clusion act within few hours of its de-
livery to him was severely criticised by
the delegates to the Methodist confer
ence. The committee appointed Thurs
day to prepare a memorial protesting
against the bin telegraphcd the presi-
dent concerning the matter, and they
feel certain that the president has di-
rectly snubbed them.
One excited delegate yehemently de-
clared the presidents action to be a
''dirty Irish trick" and further said
that the bill was signed s.solely to catch
the Irish vote" OF course the delegates
whose Republicanism exceeds their re-
hgion-that is the laymen-
objected to this statement being mad
and it was withdrawn for the time be-
ing, thus preventing an unseeInly
wrangle.

This action is almost sure to create a

yelop into Cyclone before the month is
