Hen. James Capehart.
Parkersburg Sentinel.

Parkersburg Sentinel.
The denomination OF Mr.. Cape
hart by the Ravenswood Conven
ton makes him the Democratic can
didate for Congress again from the
Fourth district. The convention
that nominated him for the third
term resembled in its contentious
and manifestations the convention
that nominated him for the first
term.
There are always sore places to
heal after nominating convention
has performed its work, but when
the issue becomes one whether Dem
ocrats or Republicans shall be
chosen to the offices the individuals
will line up with their party, and
the nominee will receive pretty
faithful support.
In 1890 the vote of the Fourth
district, the candidates being Jas.
Gapehart and G. b. Smith, was as.
lows:
James Capehsrt. ............ 10, 573
,Chas. B. Smith ....................17,64 S
sss.s.sss.@..s.
In 1892, the candidates being Jas.
Capehart and G. T. Caldwell, the
vote was as follows:
James Capehart... ........21,9 $3.50
Chas. L. Caldwell .............19, 924
Capehait's plurality .............. 2,075
The vote for President in 1892 in
the Fourth Congressional district
was as follows:
Grover Cleveland ..............20,S9 1877
Benjamin Harrison $1,000. ......19 ,722
Cleveland's plurality ............. L ,085
So that it will be seen that the
minimum plurality given a Demo
cratic candidate at these elections
exceeded one thousand votes. And
Mr.. Capehart ran about 1 900 votes
ahead of his ticket And the vote
renders it certain that the democrat
ic majority of the district is a safe
and sure one.
In congress Mr.. Capehart has
made record as faithful and in
dustrions public servant. He has
been conscientious in the support
of the principles of the democratic
party. BE is a pronounced ad-
vocate of the lowest possible tariff,
and is an opponent of all trusts and
combines.
AS the nominee of the democratic
party he is entitled to the support
of the, party. His popularity with
the agricultural classes is his great
est strength. They have hereto
fore supported him with fidelity
and success, and there is no reason
to suspect that they will not now
support him as cordially as ever,
And with equal assurance h1e cleo
ton can be promised.

John Wanamaker, Postmaster
General in President Harrison's
cabinet, and owner of large store
in Philadelphia, is advertising great
reductions of prices because of the
new tariff law. Especially in wool
en- goods is the price reduced, goods
being offered now at from one
fourth to one third their former
prices, and in bold type Mr.. Wanna
maker offers to sell Gbelow tariff
rates." This is not intended as an
advertisement for Mr.. Wanamaker
but to show that even SO prominent
a Republican as he is compelled to
openly admit the good the new tar
iff law will do the people of this
country by reducing their burden
of taxation.

vention for the Fifth District, met
at Ravenswood, August 18th, and
was called to order at 10 a. M, by
]. D. Summers of Roane county,

made chairman and F. 81. Green
secretary. Col. Matt Cooper, in an
eloquent speech, nominated E. w.
Brown, of Ravenswood, for Senator.
In the course of his speech Col.
Cooper paid a beautiful and touch
ing tribute to the memory of the
late Senator Kenna, which was
heartily applauded. His reference
to the Hon. VIM. L. Wilson, one of
the brightest stars in the political
armament. was cheered to the echo
by the convention.
Hon. Rankin Wiley, Jr., in a
very eloquent and we'll worded
speech heartily seconded the NOM
ination of Mr.. Brown.
Mr. Browns was the only name
presented and he was nominated by
reclamation. Mr.. Brown has al
ready been nominated for Senator
by the Populists of this district, and
his election is assured. Mr.. Brown
comes from a large and influential
family of Democrats in Jackson
county, and will not vote for Re-
publican U. S. Senator, whatever
else he may do.
Mr.. Capehart has been true to
his trust, and true to his people,
and they in turn will be true to him.

Was there ever time that mining
and agriculture did not have conflict.
whether the cause be real or imaginary
From the day of the big fight in Doctor
Holden's garden in Sonora in March,
1851, to this very hour, there has always
been some sort of row between the
miners and the ranchmen. The last
case comes from Montana, where sheep
man of Great Falls has had to move on
account of the shelters at that place.
He kept on losing sheep from day to
day and from week to week and, not
being able to discover the cause in any
other way he finally constituted himself
coroner and held an inquest on the
carcasses Of some Of his sheep. The
fat had q sickly yellow tipge, and .
herder in bis employ told him 1t was
from eating grass that was affected by
arsenic. Chemical analysis subss-
quently verified the herder's theory and
the owner OF the sheep moved away to a
place where the smelterR cease from
troubling and the miners are at rest. 1t
does seem az II, in q sparssly settled
state like Montana, there should be room

WHETHER the triumph of what IL
called the courtesy of the senate" as
exemplifed by the rsisction OF Peck
ham and Hornblower, is a good thing
for the country and the whole country,
yet remains to be seen. At the fret
blush it locks very like revival of that
spirit of senatorial bossism the rejection
OF which drove Roscoe Conkling into
private citizenship and indirectly led up
to the murder Of President Garfield.
But it hardly seems reasonable that
men like Senators Dolph, Hoar, Allison
and others of that stamp would deliber-
ately stand in with Hill and Murphy to
humiliate man of Peckhsm's scknowl-
edged ability, il they did not believe
there was fair and praiseworthy prin-
ciple underlying such action. We do not
believe this to be the result of a trade on
the tariff bill, as some papers suggest. 1t
is evidently a contest for q precedent,
whether that precedent be right or
wrong.
