DEsIooRArIo PROMISES

To Tarmers During the Campaign and
How Doddrldgo County Wool Growers
Arc Making Them Keep Their Pledges
1t is still fresh in the public mind
how Democratic politicians resorted to
all sorts of sricks and made all sorts OF
bluffs" during the late national cam
paign to entrap unwary voters, and es-
pecially to secure the votes of farmers,
whom they labored to convince were
particularly Disseminated against by
the Mckinley bill. A good story is told
ut the expense OF some we'll known DEM
ocratic leaders in Doddridge county,
illustrating how the peculiar methods
practleed during the campaign are react
ing.
Last summer when the campaign was
at white heat u special drive was made
by the Democratic workers OF Dodd-
ridge to secure the votes OF WOO -groW-
ers, with the argument that the election
OF Grover Cleveland, which would
mean the repeal OF the Mckinley bill,
would result in maintaining and even
increasing the price OF WOOL Tho
farmers wero incredulous, and some
OF the boldest OF these Democratic
bluffcrs, including ex.Sherid S. B. Nc.
MILAN, Milton Mason, Lewis Maxwell
and Jerome Ross 1.-THE latter an ex' Re-
publican who had strayed after the
free trade idoD, in order to stiIEen the
backs OF the wool'groweFs and inspire
them with confidence in Democratic
pretensions, staked their regulations
US prophets that ii Cleveland was elected
the price of wool would be maintained.
AS an evidence OF good faith and to
chow their confidence in their own
predictions, they promised the Dodd'
ridge farmers that ii the Democrats
gained power they would take all their
this years wool of their hands at 20
cents u pound,
Everybody knows tho result OF the
election, and everybody knows, also,
that 1t has been followed by a remarks
BILE depression in wool. Down it has
gone steadily, and when it reached the
IS cent mark the Doddridge farmers be-
thought them OF the rosy promises
these Democratic leaders made in the
heat OF the campaign, So they gathered
their tleeCes together and appeared in
West Union, hunted up the politicians
who had given them the guarantees
and demanded that their pledges be
made good. Tho Cleveland price
had been guaranteed ut rs cents
and % cents they wanted, de-
spite tho fact that tho market price
had fallen to IS cents. To the credit Of
three of the politicians above named
they did not "squeal," but stood up
and took their medicine like men. OF
course they arc cents out on every
pound OF wool, but they have learned a
valuable object lesson from the very
men whom their confident predictions
had deluded into voting the Democratic
ticket. The gentlemen who received
the lesson without thinking" were
Messrs. Mason, Maxwell and Ross. 1t
is said that ex.sherif Mcmillan, hearing
OF tho contemplated raid OF the farmers,
had business out Of town.
The INTELLIGENcER is informed that
Mr.. Bart Hickman, OF Toll Gate, Richie
county, another Democrat who had
made similar promises to catch farmer
votes, ia also keeping them, and learn
ing an object lesson at cost OF Z cents
on every pound OF wool he buys.

Wonderful Jerusalem.

Jerusalem What a world of thought
is awakened by single word spoken.
Jerusalem-tle loved, the hated, the
id"lized, the despised destroyed and
rebnilled again and again; the scene of
the Savior's triumph and tragic death.
The cradle of the Christian faith !; the
inspiration of humanity. How wonder
ful is thy histd,y What theme for
the poet and the painter. Every hill
and valley SD rich in tender associa-
tions, the very nerve center of religions
history. Fortunately the ancient city
and all the surrounding country has
been reproduced by the painters art in
great Cyclorama, showing the city in
its glory under Herod, and at the time
of the Cru ,ifxion of the Savior. The
view upon Calvary is triumph of re-
ligious conception and artistic painting.
The whole scene is bathed in witred
twilight atmosphere that adds greatly
to The intense realism Of the whole.
In connection with this grent Cyclora-
ma is the famous painting, Christ's
Trnmphal Entity into Jerusalem.
These two superb historic works are on
exhibition at ae corner of Wabash
Ave. and Hubbard Court, Chicago. just
two blocks south of the Auditorium.
No advance of price, We are informed,
will be made during the Worlds Fair
and one ticket admits to both exhihl-
tions. Intending visitors to Chicago
should make note of them.

The u. S. District Court.

Judge Aleck Boarman, attended by
all the Court staff, opened Court here on
last Monday, organized the grand jury
and went TO work. Mr.. Elstner pro-
ceeded to call over the docketed cases
every one of which was promptly dis
posed of.
The following cases were tried and
disposed of on Tuesday:
u. S. VS.. j. b. Levert, violating u. S.
Revenue Laws. Found guilty and SEN
fenced to pay fine of $1,000 and costs.
u. S. vs.. Jean Bellas, ct AL, same en-
try as in previous case.
U. S. VS.. S. R. Kingery, same entry as
in previous case.
u. $. vs.. Alphonse Thibodeaux, same
entry as in previous case.
U. S. VS.. Francois Ledoux, same en-
try as in previous case.
Messrs. Young and Belden tried at
at the January term, not appearing, the
Marshal, Mr.. Vigneaux, was instructed
to produce their bodies at Alexandria
on Monday next.
The case of the Government VS.. Ed.
Walls who stood committed under a
bond for his appearance, required
charged, the District Attorney and
Grand Jury considering that the evil
dence taken by the Commissioner
showed no case against him.
Judge BOarman sat two days only.
The business of this Court is trans
acted in manner strongly contrasting
with the modas operandi of our State
District Courts, and we cannot avoid
thinking. that such contrast might be
largely avoided. For instance, when
the Crier, Mr.. Bernstein, proceeded to
call the panel, not a juror failed to an
Eswer. There was reason for this, and
we think it is found in the fact that
every juror knows the law must be
obeyed implicitly.

thus reduce the risks? If you insure

Ii yon do not insure, yon must take

will not establish waterworks, and
cannot or will not insure in the com

establish local mutual Insurance sys-

protect yourselves? This is feasible,
aud 10y no means uncommon. We
make these suggestions with no selfish
motives.
We hope something may be done, tu
enable property owners TO escape from
