WE do not believe there has been any
treachery connected with the Congress
sional contest in this county, and we
are of the opinion that it is serious
mistake to make such a charge.
We do know that some things
charged are not true. Nothing
can be gained by recrimination while
much may be lost. 1t is the wrong
policy to pursue in order to gain the
support Of the delegates elected in be-
half of another candidate. We desire
to see the nomination for Congress come
to Belmont county, but if the county
has to be made solid by force, we think
it very doubtful whether that result will
be secured. There are some men In the
Republican party in this county who are
openly opposed to Col. Poorman, and
while we do not agree with them in
their views, yet we do not see that they
are traitors, or how their opposition can
be made less vigorous by openly abusing
them. In our view Col. Poorman can
afford to be magnanimous to those who
opposed him, and certainly as much can
be gained by such a course as by the op-
posite.

For CONGRESS-

To the Republicans of Belmont County.
You will soon be called upon to indicate your
choice for candidate for Congress- Two years
ago, by the unanimous vote of your delegates, the
honor Of leading ''fOrlOrn hope" in a district
gerrymandered so as to give Democratic majority
was conferred upon me. But four weeks were al
lowed to make the contest, and in that time the
Democratic majority of 1852 at the proceeding
election. was reduced to 74s, and ran ahead of
my ticket in every county in the district. The
county is now In Republican district and my
friends think 1 ought to have an opportunity TO
carry their banner when there is chance of sue
cess. My services to the pary in the county and
in the State are known to you all, as is the manner
n which discharged my duties in the two elective
positions, Auditor and Representative, conferred
upon me in thirty years OF active service by your
votes. do not disguise the fact that this nom
nation, as an endorsement and approval of
services would afford Inc great pleasure, and If
received pledge my most faithful and labOriOuS
efforts Tor the success of the patty and i'll the dis
charge of the duties of the office in the int rest of
my constituents and my country.

WHEN Harrison was elected the Dem
ocrats thought him a weak man, who
would be moulded by his Cabinet, and
by every one who chose to try his hand
at the business. Now they have changed
their mind, and you never hear anything
more said by them about Grandfather's
hat. He has proven himself an able
possessed of wide grasp of
thought, and with the courage to say
no, when he could not comply with a
mans request. He stands as the peer of
any President who has ruled this coun-
try in times of peace, his ability and in
tegrity respected by foe as well as
friend. His denomination is only ques-
tion of days.

: THE General Conference of the NJ. E.
church in session at Omaha seems to be
getting along pretty smoothly, but there
is an occasional jar between the lay and
ministerial delegates. The lay members
of the church are of the opinion that
they should have equal representation
with the ministers. 1t would seem but
just that the millions who are the finan-
cial support of the church should have
an equal voice with the ministers in ad-
ministering church government.

form of a surprise in honor Of his llth birthday.
The company collected at the home OF Miss Bertha
Hawthorne, where they arranged beautiful
boquet of flowers and selected q nicely bound copy
of Sowed to the Winds" to be taken as gift,
and so entirely unsuspecting was Master Grin that
when they passed him on the street their way to
his home he wondered why he alone had been ex-
eluded from the company. and where they could
be bound for. few minutes later. however,
when he saw them enter his home, he took the
hint and made haste to join them, where OF course
the time spent in gay hilarity. and the excel

enjoyed by all.

THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1892.

If capable business man were ever
needed in the Office of Auditor of this
county he is needed now. We need a
man who has practical experience in
business, and who will use the same
economical methods in the conduct of
public affairs as III private enterprise.
The Auditor is really the financial
agent of the county, and at least ought
to possess full knowledge of the
financial condition of the county. By
his influence he can materially curtail
or add to the public liabilities, and from
his more intimate acquaintance with
the county's demands, the commissioners
must largely depend on him for advice.
In great measure due to lack of
business judgment in the Auditors Office
the county is not in as good condition
financially as could be desired, and it
will take good financiering to bring
things right. The commissioners need
the assistance of an Auditor possessing
business sense.
During a series of years economy in
the conduct of the office of Auditor has
not been known, and now is the time to
secure the services of man who will
run that Office in the interest of the
people, and not with the sole idea of
securing a reelection. By the grace of
Republican votes the Auditors Office
has remained in the Democratic party,
but all signs portend that the limit for
that indulgence has been reached, as it
should have been long ago.
