ADDISON, W. Va. Oct. lS.-Hon. A.
B. Fleming, the usurper, and the last Of
the Democratic governors for long
time to come in West Virginia, ad-
dressed small crowd in the court
house here this afternoon. He spoke at
some length. He opened up by relating
an anecdote connected with his canvass
in the last campaign-the one in which
he was defeated by General Gol-the
object of which was to get up little
enthusiasm, but which, however, was
an entire failure.
The frat part of his speech was con-
fined to the tariff, trying to use extracts
from Republican speeches, ETC., for
proof. All his efforts to rouse little
enthusiasm failed. Even when he spoke
ofthe stuffed prophet of 'em all only
three or four Of the faithful ones joined
the applause.
The governor said that he didn't
want to hurt anybodv's feelings and
that his speeches had been so mild
that some had even said that they were
soft" speeches, and il the one here
was fair sample we heartily concur in
that opinion. After talking tariff till
his hearers we're tired OF it, he turned
loose on the force bill" which he talk
ed about for more than an hour. Dur
ing his remarks nc stated that mans
suffrage was dearer to him than all else,
as il he had any regard for mans SUI
frage, and that everyone must vote for
the Democrats, or the country would
be ruined sure and certain. The tri-
umph OF the Republican party meant
the adjustment of all fair and just
elections, and the placing Of bayonet
behind every ballot
Then he harped on that once neces.
sary measure, the "registration Of loyal
voters" and made great to-do about
it, appealing to every honest man to
vote for Cleveland and the balance OF
Democracy, the respectable people, and
save the country from ruin and negro
ruling In the beginning he said he
would appeal to the reason OF the peo-
Pile; throughout it was an appeal to the
passions and prejudices OF the people,
who, however, are not fools and cannot
be hoodwinked by any such har'
angue.

Democratic rac,ics 10 Prevent Full Vote
and m Honest Count.
Stectd! Corespondenes OF Ge Inefigsncsr.
WEIGH, W. Va, Oct. 10.-Welch is
new town and the county seat OF Nc
Dowell county, W. Va. 1t is situated
at the junction OF Elkhorn and Tug
river, and is noted resort for the DEM
ocratic tricksters of Mcdowell county.
Here is the place in which I'LL plans Of
fraud and treachery 0althe Democratic
party in Mcdowell are concocted Tor
the present campaign. Recently this
place has been made the county seat by
general election. AS result OF this
election, the county court and records
were removed from Pceryville to WEIGH.
Peeryville in 1888 was the place where
the law and will Of the people OF West
Virginia. Democrats OF this county,
after the election returns OF 1883 had
been returned to the clerk OF the coun-
ty, at the silent hour OF midnight, broke
into the clerks office, stole the records,
and destroyed enough tickets and poll
books to give them a majority in the
county and materially aid in the
counting out OF General Golf, who was
legally elected governor.
There has been systematic scheme
OF intimidation OF the negroes OF Elk
horn valley by brutal treatment by n
band OF thugs under the badge OF the
law, claiming to be detectives. Brutal
ity will not longer answer the purpose
as to the negro, as he, knowing his
rights as citizen OF West Virginia, is
assuming tho right to assert that citi-
zenship and defend the same il neces-
sary. This change of position has
caused the Democrats to change their
tactics as to the negro, and, under the
new ballot law, have attempted to cheat
the negro out OF his vote by selecting
citizen for assessor who in no way was
competent to do the work, but in every
way was willing tool in the hands OF
the Democrats of Mcdowell county. He
has refused knowingly to list hundreds
OF legal voters OF this county, and these
voters were all colored men. The list
that he did return was unintelligible in
spelling and writing, and those returns
were in the interest OF the Democratic
party.
There was a necessity for second list
ing. The county court appointed
George Brewster to make the second en-
listment OF votes and his reports showed
in two districts alone more than 600
votes that Mr.. Day failed to list. Under
this enlistment the only place where
there was trouble in securing names OF
voters was at such work as are under
the control OF Lawrence Tierney, who
is chairman of the Democratic COM
mittee. The assessor, when trying to
list the colored Republicans who work
under his (Tierney's) management, had
some trouble in securing the names,
but they were listed.
This fraud in listing having been eS-
posed bv the second assessor, the Dem
ocrats now declare that they will chal-
lenge every colored man that votes.
But their final hope is to so intimidate
colored voters by making such declara-
tons that many OF the colored voters
will not attempt to vote. The Republic
can purpose is to meet them at every
turn and that legal voters free to cast
an honest ballot and have it counted
this time in Mcdowell county.
