STATE POLITICAL POINTS.

Pioneer Press ii. r. Clifford, colored,
Editor. The bright little chairman (of
the Martinsburg conventiohl in praising
the record of the G. o. p. did not forget
10 refresh the memory OF the TACT that
the party, hundreds OF thousands OF
whom now refuse TO meet with ex-color-
ed soldiers, freed four millions OF slaves.
1t would have been much better TO have
said, or at least more truthful, that 1t
was a white mans war until they were
convinces that they could not whip the
South without the Negro, who not only
saved the Union but also freed himself,
and that the party owes him more than
he ows the party. How the Re-
publican party of West Virginia
can reasonably hope to succeed
without the negro vote, or with it di-
vided, as close As this State Is, Is myS-
terry. Since 1865 it has done nothing
for the negro in this State except feed
him on empty honors VIM. II. Bell, OF
Harper's Ferry, whose voice ii was
claimed could not be heard, asked for
and nominated Prof. Halter as dele
gate at large, but all he got was white
mans alternateShip; and for man OF
Hltter'S good sense, graduate OF Lew
iston's famous Observation-Disclosures Col
lege-to accept II, and that, too, by 60
ing on the platform TO do it, forced the
perspiratiOn out OF every pore in our
body. For every dollar in every mans
pocket in that convention the writer
would not have done it; and had Prof.
Halter been better posted politically
neither would he.
Grafton Leader. The Democratic pri-
marieS in Wheeling last Saturday re-
suited in favor OF Mr.. A. d. Garden,
aspirant for the nomination OF State
Auditor on the Democratic ticket. His
opponent, T. NJ. Darrah, got but one
delegate. This will be surprise to
Mr.. Darrah's numerous friends through
out the State and removes him from the
contest. The victory of Mr.. Garden
was more apparent than real, as the
vote was very close in many districts
with narrow margin in favor OF that
gentleman to give him the delegates
and big enough in other districts TO give
him a handsome majority Of the aggre-
gate vote. The REGISTER declares that
the ''chances Of Ohio county getting one
of the honorS of the State conven-
ton is one hundred per cent. bet
ter than if the delegation were di-
yided, and that honor is the auditor
ship. II is very likely now that the
Ohio county delegation, forty-nine
strong, will go to the Parkersburg Con-
vention with that single purpose in view
and being unit for one man, can trade
on all the other honors to be bestowed.
Candidates for Auditor from other sec
tions of the State will have to beStir
themselves anew to meet this new Rich
mond in the field made formidable bv a
united section to push his claims. 1t
also behooveS the friends of other can
didates to work henceforward for the in
terests of their particular candidate
alone and not waste their strength in
trying to secure their personal choice
for all honorS.
The following is a list OF the Demo-
cratic Club formed at New Martinsville
on Saturday, of which mention was

COMMON sENsE AND PATRIOTISM

EOMMON SEAoE AM "A ANAN -7--'
There is no party or class in this conn
try that is opposed to the success Of
any American industry, yet now and
then wecome across the ridiculous state
ment TO the contrary in Republican or
gans. While there are strong differ
ences Of opinion as 20 what will benefit
American industries, no legitimate in
dustry i'm this country meets opposition
from any quarter. The Boston Herald
reads the Republican press this lecture
on the subject:
If man should undertake 20 grow
oranges i'm Connecticut or TO roof
an an acre of ground for the culuva-
ton of tea in Massachusetts, that would
be an American industry hardly calling for
.encOuragement, because such encourage
ment would not be discreet or reasonable.
There is so much that can be done 90 advan-
taCe iu the way of industry IN this country
that 10 is q great pity 90 waste energies on
that which cannot, and 10 IS a great wrong
to encourage such effort when the ulsad-
vantage In 10 calls for increased prices on
the article in question 10 be paid by the
people generally. But 10 is grossly unfair
TO charge those who take this view with
being unpatuOtC.

JACKSON c. H., w. VA, May IA
The County Convention of Jackson
county, to appoint delegates to the va
rious conventions, was held here to-
day. There was a large attendance of
enthusiastic Democrats, and after the
delegates TO the various conventions
were appointed the following resolu.
tions were offered and unanimously
adopted,
WHEREAS, Jackson county has never
been honored with nomination for a
State office on the Democratic State
ticket, and
WHEREAS, Holly G.. Armstrong has,
by his fidelity and his earnest and un-
firing work in the promotion of Demo
cratic organization and success, entitled
himself to the consideration and sup
port OF all his party friends for the
nomination Of Auditor, and by reason
of his training and experience in clerical
work for the duties OF the Office; there
fore, be it
ReS0ued, That the delegates this day
appointed to the State Convention be,
and they are instructed to cast the solid
vote of this county for him first, last
and all the<time, and to use all honor
able means to secure his nomination.
Also the following resolution was
adopted unanimously:
WHEREAS, We have been so ably and
efficiently represented in the Senate of
the United States by the honest and
efficient services of the Hon. Charles j.
Faulkner; therefore,
Resolred, That the Democracy Of
Jackson county, in convention assem-
bled, do not only express its high APP
probation OF his services as such repre-
sentative, but most earnestly recon-
mend his reelection and return to the
Senate.
Judge Bennett, candidate for Cover
ner, was present and has many friends
in the delegation.

Says the Democratic Albany Argus:
The delegates to the Democratic Ma.
tiOnal Convention elected by the State of
Connecticut yesterday are strong friends
and supporters Of Grover Cleveland. The
platform Of the Connecticut Democracy is
a viCOrOus and clear assertion of the issues
upon which the national canvass must be
conducted. The States which were for
Tilden IN 1873 are now forming and almost
unOr0ken DhalanX. It's not probable that
New York State Will fail 70 fall in line
with the manifest sentiment of the Demo-
crazy OF the country"
This is particularly significant when
we take into consideration the fact that
Mr.. MANNING, the editor of the Argus,
is one Of New York's delegates, elected
by the snap" convention, to the Chica-
go Convention.

rHE NEW YORK DELEGATES.

Apropos Of the standing Of the HILL
delegates in the Chicago Convention, a
correspondent writes TO the Boston Her
aid that he believes the position Of af-
fairs admits Of settlement without hav-
ing recourse to revolutionary methods
He points out that the call Of the Ma
tional Convention of 1892, signed by
CALVIN s. BEICE, Chairman, aud SAM
UEL p. SHEEN, Secretary that is, the
call issued January 2lst, Of this year
said: Gan Democratic conservative cit-
liens Of the United States, irrespective
of past political associations and differ
ences, who can unite with us in an ei-
fort for pure economical and constitu-
IioDal government, are cordially Invited
TO Join in sending delegates 20 the con-
veution" While the call a0irms that
each State is entitled 10 representation
at the convention equal 20 double the
representation TO which it is entitled i'm
the next electoral college, 10 does not set
forth the manner in which the dele
gates from the various States shall be
chosen or admitted The correspond
ent insists that the National Convention
is a species Of equity court wins will
feel called upon 20 give to the Demo-
cratic party the largest, fullest, and
I hence most Democratic representation.

To the Editor Of the Register:
SIR:-In behalf of large majority OF
the Democrats of the reliable old coun-
ty of Hampshire, we desire TO deny the
report telegraphed TO the REGISTER
from Keysey, a few days ago, to the
effect that the delegates appointed to
the State convention from this county
on the 18th inst. were instructed to vote
for Hon. p f. Duffy for Auditor. On
the contrary, no instructions were
given, no resolution endorsing Mr..
Duffy was offered, and the delegates
will 60 to ParkerSburg to vote
for whom they please. Auditor
Duffy has many warm friends here, who
have high regard for him, both per-
sonally and as a State official, but op-
pose, on principle, his candidacy for a
third term and will support some one Of
the other candidates He will not have
more than one-third of the delegation,
IL so much as that, and our people want
the fact known. NoN PoPULd'

GRAvEsEND RACE TRACK, Sept. I6.-There
were no stake features ON to-day's pro-
gramnle, the six races being made up over
| night events, but the sport was fairly inter-
! esting and decidedly lucrative for the talent,
| as four of the six races were won by heavily
backd first choices in the betting. Lord
Motley, the even money favorite for the
first race stumbled while at the post and
threw Jockey Thorp. The 'colt then ran
three and a half miles before stopping. He
was Withdrawn. All money bet on him was
lost, as he was in charge of Starter Rowe
when the accident occurred. Silver Fox
was then backed down from to to to s.
He won in galloping style.
The Eastern contingent Of plungers bet
heavily on st. Michael to win the second race
at five furlongs, but the Westerners got all
the money with Helen Nichols, who shoul-
dered her 120 pounds and won in galloping
and st. Michael 2 to ], third. Another bar
