TRAGEDY

The assassination Of Mr.. B. CarnOt,
president of the French republic has
caused a shock to the whole civilized
world eqnaling that produced by the
Assassination Of President Lincoln in
1895, and President Garfield in 81
Until recent years it was supposed
those elected by tine voice of the people
to hold the reigns Of government were
safe and that only those who could ex-
erclsC desp0tic rulc were in danger
Times have changed and the choice OF
| the people is as liable to be the victim
AS he who claims divine right to rule
An overwhelming regret was mani
Tested in every city, town and hamlet of
France at the untimely death of perhaps
the most popular of all the presidents
since the establishment Of the republic.
1t is thought that the safety of the
government will not he imperriled by
this fearful blow, but fiat successor to
Carnot will be elected in the prescribed
manner,
The eXcitable temper of the French
men Of Lyons, the city in which the
president met his fate, was with Difficult
ty restrained from venting itself upon
all resident Italians when it was learn
ed that a nation Of that country had
committed the dastardly deed. Better
counsel prevailed, however, aud the ell
tire people bow in submission to an all
wise providence.

The weekly register. [volume] (Point Pleasant, Va. [W. Va.]) 1862-1909, 1894-05-02
The Congressional Convention.

The Democratic Congressional
Convention for the Fourth Con-
gressional District will soon be
called by the Committee.
This District is now represented
by Hon. James Capehart, of Mason
county. It is evident from ex-
pressions made in every county in
the District that Mr.. Capehart is
the choice of the people, and that
he will be re-nominated. His con-
sistent course during his two terms
in Congress has endeared him to
the people, and they regard him as
one of the ablest as well as one of
most reliable men who has repre-
sented this District in Congress-
He certainly is the most popular
candidate the Democracy has ever
put forward, as the large majorities
he received each time he was a can
didate, will testify.
The Democracy of this District
will make fatal mistake should it
retire Mr.. Capehart. To fail to re-
nominate him for another term
would be bad politics. The Repub-
licans are anxious that Mr.. Cape
hart should not be nominated, for
they know that they have no man
in the District who could hope to
defeat him, and they have no man
who is anxious to run against him.
The Republicans throughout the
District, are doing all they can to
bring about his defeat in the Con-
vention, knowing full well that if
some other Democrat is nominated
they will have fighting chance for
carrying the District with Hon.
Warren Miller, of Jackson, as their
candidate. This activity of Re-
publicans to defeat Mr.. Capehart's
nomination, should rally the Dem
ocrats in every county in the Dis
trict, to his support. Mr.. Capehart
should be nominated not only for
his personal strength, but for the
future of the Democracy of the
State. We are not saying aught
against any of the other aspirants
for this nomination, for we recog-
nize in them, men of great learning
and ability, and good Democrats,
but do not believe that this is the
year to change our candidate
With Mr.. Capehart we have a Ger
tainty of winning.
