SIR:-Hon. Stephen b. EIklos spoke
Al tbe court house Saturday night TO a
small crowd Of Republicans, few
negroes and ten ladies. Mr.. Elkins
Dosed ssa plain speaking, unassumlng
business man, and talked and talked
ana talked, but aside from blaming
! Democracy with the hard times, aoout
the only logic he attempted was "hen
he admitted that taking oil the duty
made artielaL cheaa8F uvnf nfeitts6 fhe
chief characteristic of his speech
was his pr0neneSs 10 make state
, ments and his evident reluctance
20 enter into any proof Of the same,
and though occasionally be did dare 10
tread upon the dangerous ground, be
invariably sQuirmed of of it with q
QuicknesS and agility which ballei mis-
great ponderosity. A goodly part Of
bis hearers turned away ia disgust
When the Lord wanted PharOah to
let Israel 90, lie sent plague Of frogs
into the ard Well, jim Huling has
followed suit aud is sending out pic
tursS Of himself all over Sue country.
Oh, what is tae Republican party com
ing 90, when it is obliged TO use the
portrait OF James HuIing as campaign
document?
PITY that eagles should be mswed,
while kites and buzzards prey st
liberty" Jim HuIng and his
gang belong to the last line.
And they would tear up
West Virginia, welcome revolution, an
archy or anything to elect jim, while
the gallant John d. Anderson goas on
just the sane hitting Republicans
heads with the everIastidg gospel "lika
blind god feeling his way with
thunder"
Sam Burdetts has had Huling out
drilling him 10 the art Of making
speech. IL would tickle you powerfully
60 see that drill. sam stands him up
against the wall in a tragic pose with
his hands at attention. Then Sam will
speak or rather line the hymn FOR Jim
10 sing, thus;
My fellow citizens, head up aud
deep voice) / thank you for the courtesy
OF your presence. The Republican party
is represented here to-day 6y me. l
anyone TO contradict its prin-
ciUles.
When Jim comes TO say this his !
tongue won't 90 OF, and tits better'n |
a circus" 10 see him try 20 speak. But |
really he can reCite MARY had little /,
lamb" beautifully, almost as we'll as any /
school boY IN the State. |
Huljng was asked the other day who |
would make his spec eheS iar him II be
went 10 Washington. He failed TO
Answer the question. Why, I'll tell you,
John Anderson IS the best hustler that
ever shook mulberry bush. Yes, sir;
lud be Just brushes jim Huling of as II
be were a fly. John likes to scrap Re
Dubljcans, and l believe the hotter the
battle the better John likes It. He is
1ne Of those fellows that smoke causes
10 see better and cannon TO hear more.
Oh, he's getting there. And oh, Lord,
when the 9th OF Novem Der comes,
when John Anderson comes home with
!, 600 more votes than be needs, when
he flags fly and cannon boom, when
he bands play our wedding march,
when the red lights burn along the
streets, when the hurrahs and cheers
,re tossed from throat 20 throat and
hats are flung up and fair ladies' wave
,and kerChiefS, when the poor men will
augh and the rockets shoot and burst
.bove us-whoOpl I'll just march down
be aisle on Johns arm the happieSt
girl In the whole state.
MISS KANAwHA.
