RowLEsBURG, W. Va, October 81.
TO az Eluor Of CSC Rsgisisr;
SIX: The Intclltqellcer Of to-day con-
tains under the head OF a "Grand Rally
At ROwlesburg" as complete and bold a
Misrepresentation OF that affair as has
occurred during this campaign. The
writer wasan eye witness TO that parade
of fifteen hundred men, and knowing
the propensity OF our Republican friends
So exaggerate, counted every man and
child In that immense parade. At
its greatest there were just
two1 hundred aud thirty five
men aud boys, and counting the horses
and oxen in the parade there were alto
Kether 25S men, boys, girls, women,
horses and oxen. Those who did not
parade numbered about so or IS. The
tsimmanse" crowd that heard Congress
man Mudd is equally a fake. That in
mense crowd during the time Mr.. Mudd
made his speech was 70 the writer's own
knowledge scattered over the town and
took 20 part whatever In the speakers
meeting and heard nothing OF WnaS he
said.
Side by side with this campaign fake
is another column of the IntetlIgeHcCr
devoted 20 an attempt 10 cover up the
damaging remarks of Mr.. Campbell.
Mr.. Samuel HOOtOn, who felt the alb
sence Of the great Irish orator, Mr..
Rafferty,, who with Mr. Davis and Mr..
Wisner was conspicuously absent, con-
cluded TO have some Offset to the lack
Of the freshman being present, and at
once sent a telegram TO Chairman Daw-
son, who is willing 70 furnish
anything and everything, asking
him to have Mr.. Campbell send
on his denial to Mr.. Stone, OF this
place, In order that it may be used here
among the Irish whom they are under
taking 10 delude, somewhat after the
following manner: About eight miles
from here, among persons who are sup
posed TO be unfriendly 20 the Irish and
the Catholics, these same Republicans
who sing sweet songs 70 the IrShmen
and Catholics, are diligently circu-
lating the report that MaCCOrkle is al
Irishmaa ard Catholic, for the
purpose of having them bolt
the Democratic ticket. Mac
Corkle's religious views have nothing
10 do with the campaign, but inaSmuch
as they are asserted, we will give the
Iact Mr. MacCorkle is neither an Irish
man nor q Catholic. Another fact
which is known to the writer Is that
among the leaders here and at RepUbli- |
tcsn headquarters 10 has been annOunc-
ed during the past week that If was in
their power they would deprive every
foreigner Of a vote until he had been in
this country twentY-One years. And in
referring 20 the foreign element
they initiate with ridicule the Irish
emigrant landing IN New York forth
with naturalized, giving expression 20
his political belief In "Oim a Dlmecrat."
Truly, their love for the Irish is pro-
verbal. The same Samuel HO0ten who
IS interested In carrying West Virginia |
for the Republican party has hit upon a |
novel scheme 70 accomplish his purpose. |
With unusual bOldnesS be declared here |
on Saturday, in the presence Of Demo /
Gratis, that be would cast his vote in |
Grafton this time, because il would do |
him no good in Maryland, where he |
has voted for ten years, and would /
do his party a great deal OF good in West |

cess better Mr.. HOoten, we understand, /
paid his taxes in Grafton a short time /
ago, having had himself assessed A /

years that their votes are not needed In |
West Virginia this year? Aud notwiJh- /
standing The fact that they have claim |

their property here, voted 10 other |
places FOR wears, they can come BACK az
any time the Republican party needs
their votes.
Some time ago the Republican Dri-
uaries were held In this county. Mr..
Hollis, OF this place, was seeking the
nomination for sheriff. He Induced
some Young Democrats TO vote for him
at the primaries. Mr. Hollis was de-
feated. The Republicans are now In
timidating Eaese young Democrats with
threats Of prosecution II they 90 not
vote the Republican ticket.
is 10 any wonder that from such a
sourse the IlueUiQencer can get false re-
ports? Is 10 surprising that az this stage
OF their desperation they are deter
mined 10 succeed, 10 matter how? is 1t
surprising that Mr. HoOtOn could get
Mr.. Campbel's denial for the asking?
"Send on your denial, Mr. Campbell
90 matter whether you spit upon the
Catholics and labOrers; no matter
whether young man who takes no &C
tive interest 10 politics, aud whose in
tegrity is above reprOach, did oppose
