Some one singing himself "a Demo
crat" writing to the Register from Elk
Garden, finds fault with the speech
made by Edward S. Elliott, of Preston
county. He accuses Mr.. Elliott of say
ing that federal officers we're placed
at the poles in Wheeling by order OF
President Cleveland in 1883. Also that
a negro resident of Wheeling for five
year was arrested for attempting to
vote and taken to prison handcuffed. F."
This statement he cities as part "of the
campaign lying resorted to in this cam
paign Of Republican misrepresenta-
ton"
Mr.. Elliott told the absolute truth. By
order OF President Cleveland and against
the protest OF the United states mar
shall for West Virginia, federal officers
were placed at the poles in the city of
Wheeling on election day in 1888. They
had never been used before by any
party, although the state was born in
the throes of wal and has been the
scene of many holly contested cam
paigns in which the Republican party
might have surrounded every pole with
United States officers.
The act was so shameless and 80 ut
terly without reason that the respecta-
BILE Democrats of Wheeling blush for
their part of it, and nobody OF that
party was found courageous enough to
admit that he had advised or asked the
appointment OF these officers.
1t is also truo, as Mr.. Elliott stated,
that a colored man, a thoroughly quail
fed voter under the law, vas three
times arrested because he persisted in
exercising his right to vote. This de-
veloped the whole scheme, which was
to bulldoze and intimidate colored
voters so that they would be afraid to
present themselves at the poles.
1t appears that Republican speakers
can not read the record of the Democra-
tic party in West Virginia without
being accused of being engaged in a
campaign of lying. 1t must be that the
connection here referred to slipped in
to the Register during the absence OF the
editor.

Campaign Year Business.

It is a matter OF general remark that
in no presidential year within the
present generation, if ever, has the bus
mess Of the country been so prosper.
u Many branches of trade report
the best year they have had, manufac-
turers are busy, jobbers are selling
ahead for next season, retailers are
busy, laborers are employed at remun-
erative wages, and the whole country
seems to be going ahead without any
regard to the fact that in less than a
month the people are to declare at the
polls whether they will change the ma
tional administration and the national
policy.
This prosperous condition of the
country means the confidence Of bust
ness men in the faithfulness and COM
mon sense OF the American people.
They know that the opportunity for a
change is about to present itself and
they do not believe that the people will
now declare for the change.
And SO we have the most prosperous
year in American history succeeded by
the presidential year which thus far
has outstripped in business any SINH
lar year that has gone before.
If this is not a handsome and an elo'
ouent tribute to the sound business
policy of the Republican party, it would
be hard to find one.

the tin plate industry in this country,
American competition instead of be-
coming more and moro a factor would
practically drop out and leave the mar
ket, as it was before, in the hands Of
the Welsh manufacturers.
Importers are not always so logical,
rarely so truthful as this; and the
sound logic and truthfulness Of this
particular importer are to be attrib-
uted to his desire to unload as soon as
he car.

he can.

SOME misguided men are going to
vote the Democratic ticket because they
don't believe the Democratic party be-
lieves protection unconstitutional, al
though it says it believes that very
thing. This is decidedly funny and
not much Of a compliment to the Demo
cratic party, for. that matter it doesn't
look very we'll for the men who are 60
ing to take the chance.

Friends, Fellow-C Citizens, Countrymen
There is a notable feature in this
campaign which distinguishes t from
any that have preceded it, When a po-
litical procession is passing, of which
ever party it may be, we rarely hear the
boots and ieers which have disgraced
one side or the other in former cam
paigns, and which have been heard less
and less each campaign year.
In illustration Of this spirit Of good
fellowship and neighborly feeling, not
long since a Republican marching col
umn. and a Democratic marching col
umn passed on Market street and each
saluted the other, to the very great
qualification of bystanders. Neither
party yielded anything of its principles
and each did itself honor by its courti-
est treatment of the other.
This is the way to get along in this
world. We are all Americans, all fellow
citizens, all neighbors. We do not all
agree on the main questions, which is
all the worse for our Democratic friends.

Two Pictures.

Our Democratic friends in West Vir-
GINA are illustrating by two very strik-
ing pictures their mortal dread lest six
thousand colorcd voters may dominate
the one hundred and sixty thousand
white voters in this state.
Picture No. /, is on the front end of
a bowling "foace" bill campaign docu-
ment intended for circulation in certain
parts of the state. Here we have an
elegant white gentleman standing at the
poles in front Of the ballot box and Of
two other equally elegant and equally
alarmed white gentlemen. The white
voter has his ballot in his hand about
to deposit it. On m side Of him is u
burly "nigger" tough, Il hand resting
on the voters shoulder and in the other
a revolver. On the other side Of the
white voter is an equally black and
equally burly 'nigGer" tough with a
shot gun in his hand.
This, it must be confessed, is a very
striking picture, but another part still
still remains to be told. The white
voter has not only a ballot in his right
hand ready to deposit, but he has
three other ballots in his left hand. 1t
may be that the !'nigger' toughs are
Directing to this white gentleman de-
positing four ballots at n time after
the fashion of long haired gentlemen
in the far south. This not explained.
We are told that the picture repre-
sents what tho force bill means"
Now we submit in all candor to the
Democratic managers that any honest
man, white or black, would object to
any other man depositing four ballots
where the law allows him to poll but
one.
Tho esteemed Register supplies US
with another picture Of equally blood
curdling type. West Virginia is repre-
sented as a sort Of Goddess Of Liberty
and a niger" rufian is about to VIC
late her. The white gentleman, with
the label Democracy" on his trousers'
leg, comes to the rescue, and we are
told that this shows "How Stephen b.
Elkins must run West Virginia into the
Republican column in payment for a
seat in the cabinet"
1t is a fair inference that these works
Of art are intended to illustrate the
very eloquent Grafton of Mr.. MacCorkle,
slugget and Democratic nominee for
governor.
We beg to suggest that there is room
for another cartoon. Rufian "nigger"
children might be represented with
clubs in their hands mixing with deli
cate white children in the public
schools; and the constitution Of West
Virginia, which prohibits mixed
| schools in this state, might be repre-
sented as in the back ground cracking
it's sides with laughter yer the monu-
mental ignorance of a man who aspires
to be governor Of his state and has
never taken sufficient interest in its
institutions to read the constitution OF
that state. to know what it provides
what it permits, and what it prohibits.
There is time enough to produce this
picture and to make sure of holding
West Virginia in the Democratic col
umn: No time should be lost in getting
it out into the back counties. 1t will
prove a regular cyclone, just as the
others have. mo Force Bill. No Mig
ger Domination"
