PECULIAR POLITICS.

I
For some days past a blind man
could have observed a large and rap
idly increasing dark-red spot on the
diverse side of the Democratic moon.
Just how it happened to locate itself
so as to be plainly ~discernible to the
denizens of the Eastern Panhandle is
not for us to say. That it is there is
sufficient, and when the HERALD says
it is so, so it is.
Our highly esteemed and sprightly
contemporary, the Shepherds W n
Register, last week exhausted his vo-
cabulary of adjectives describing II
distinguished fellow-citizen, Hon.
Stewart w. Walker. Such express
sions as ''b'iled shirt, New York
Clothes" patent leather shoes"
high hat, "a living symphony of
art and nature" personal loneliness
and tailoresque grandeur may be in
tended as compliments, but to our
mind they are decidedly left-handed.
And then our neighbor, the World,
the official organ Of the chairmen Of
the Democratic committees of the
counties of Berkeley, Morgan, and
Jefferson, comes forth, and in plain
language, so plain that even a way
farer may understand, falls aboard the
political anatomy of Hon. William l..
Wilson, who is to be () chairman of
the Ways and Means committee, and
with the solid logic of fact proceeds to
dissect him in a truly scientific man
ner.
lust what indiscretion Mr.. Walker
is chargeable with is not stated. He
is not, so far as we are informed, now
before the public. No n has ever
intimated that he was derelict as a
member of the Legislature. He made
a creditable record, and stands we'll at
his home and among all classes. He
is not an avowed candidate for any
aficial position, has not expressed
himself as having experienced a
change of heart politically, neither is
he Topping this way and that like a
fish out of water. Inquiry among his
friends reveals the fact that he is
strictly attending to his own business,
and practicing his profession in q
manner highly pleasing to his clients.
So much are they delighted with him
that some have expressed the wish
that they may have the pleasure O
voting for him as their representative
in the halls of Congress. Thus it APP
pears the green-eyed monster afflicts
the Register, not on personal, but pc.
litical grounds.
Not SO with the W0yH. Brother
Aler is to be congratulated on having
a dasUs 6eW. We fully agree with thu
World that Mr.. Wilson has not dont
his duty toward his constituents
Aside from the fact he has always ad
vocated tariff reform free trade), thar
which nothing could be more detri
mental to the Second District, %latterly
he has ignored his party friends
those who have made it possible fol
him to hold his high position, and lef
them to chew the cud of disappoiut
ment.
But our friends should remembe'
that they are manufacturing in these
dull times, while mills are closing
and banks bursting, a large amour
of Republican campaign thunder: hilf
do not forget "A chiefs amang "
takin' notes, an faith he'll prent it.

The report of the Board of Arbitra-

surprise to those who had followed the
case closely, yet the disappointment
and chagrin of patriotic Americans is
little lessened by the fact that while
we failed to establish to the satisfac.
