GRAFTON W. Va, Oct 30.-The citizens of
Grafton are watching with great interest the
Developments in the Washington gubern atorial
campaign. Henry j. Snively, candidate for gov
ernof on the Democratic ticket, was born and
raised here His downfall and flight fell like Z
thunderbolt on the community, where he had
long enjoyed the confidence OF the people. His
father still resides here and is highly respected.
Young Snively married, an estimabie lady and
his wiie's relatives occupy q high social posi-
ton. II is regard for the feelings of his
aged father and other innocent relatives here
that has prevented more open hostility toward
H. J. snively than has yet been shown by the
people OF Grafton.
A prominent Off cial stated to your correspond
ent today that there WAS not redeeming fea-
ture in Sniveiy's rascality. He had purposey
cheated poor lsboring men and orphan children
and he took money in trust after he had become
bankrupt and even at the hour OF his departure.
An effort has been made recently to manufac-
ture q statement which would show his wrong
doing in more favorable light, but it has tota ly
failed. Most OF the Democrats here repudiate
Snively, and would nor turn over hand to
help him. When the Observation-Disclosures first
exposed Snively he teegraphed to Col. McGraw
and other Democrats here that he had been ac-
cused of bigamy and swindling and requested
thom to telegraph details. Without specific
knowledge OF the charges four or five of his
Democratic acquaintances telegraphed q
denial of the charges intending, they say, to
show for his wife's sake that he was not a biga-
mist, but out of 500 Democratic voters in Graf
ton he could not get FIVE who would for party
sake or any other consideration acquit him of
swindlng
Col. McGraw is lawyer and member Of the
Democratic state committee. He said to the
PosT-INTELLIGENcERc correspondent tonight that
he had q number of claims against Snivey, and
that his total Indebtedness could be settled for
about 1000. He was surprised that Snivey had
not shown practical sense enough to fix up
these claims before running for a prominent
Office. The bills against him range from $50 to
$780, The parties had been compelled to take
Judgment against him In Washington before
his debts were barred by statute of Limitation.
1t is the impression here that Snively will use
kilograms and letters generating him on the
charge of bgamy to make it appear that he is
not guilty of any OF the charges made against
him.

TORONTO, Sept. 27.-At to-day's session of
the al -Presbyterian council the business
committee made a report on the question
of closing the Chicago Worlds fair on Sun
day, expressing cordial satisfaction with
the action of the United States congress,
and the opinion that this would tend to the
better observance of the Lords day. DR..
Pitzer. of Washington. asked if the.e
would be any objection to putting Sun
day" in the place of the Lords day. be-
cause. said he, the resolution will go to a
government that does not know ANYTHING
about the Lords day, but does know some
thing about Sunday. Rev. DIR. Kerr, of
Glasgow, moved as an amendment an orig
inal resolution no had offered. which
was much more iattering to con-
gress and declared that such
action prepared the way for other
reforms which would recognize the suprem-
acy of the Lord Jesus Christ over nations.
and promote the civil and religious pros
perlty of all communities. Rev. Brownson.
of Washington. said his government was
sensitive. Council should deal gently with
the matter. Rev. DR.. George, of Pennsyl-
vania, denied that Kerr's iesolution intro
duced the matter of church and state. At
ter a lively discussion the committee report
was adopted.
