MooREFIEDD. w. VA, November 4.
Yesterday was 3 red letter day q the
history of the Democracy OF the South
Branch Valley. The town was alive
with people, the occasion being the
grand wind-up OF the most determined
and valiant fight ever made by the
Democratic party Ia the county
of Hardy. Fully seven hundred people
were in town, and there was a monster
parade of clubs on horseback, fully a
mile long, headed by band OF music.
A Joint discussion took place in the az
tstnoon at the Court House between
Mr.. Woteriug, of Preston, Republican,
and Col. j. L. X. Wood, OF Frederick,
Nd, who more than met the most san
guiue expectations of the Democracy.
1t was complete victory for the Dem
ocratic party. Every point was scored
in it's favor and Mr. Wolering left town
Immediately. Col. Wood said among
other things Mr.. Wilson had, as a mem
Der Of Congress, been true 90 the prln-
ciples Of the party and Us
platform made az Chicago. He
had fought the peoples fight sDd
risked health aud life In the night. No
man can vote against Wilson except on
one Of two grounds, either because he
does not believe In Democratic princi-
pies or for personal objections. Upon
these grounds only can he b5 defeated.
He invoked the people OF the Second
district to resent the menace and insult
OF Mathew l.. Quay contained 10 the
Philadelphia Press Of Wednesday Ia
which he said, III money enough is put
In the Second district 10 insure an hon
est count Wilson's defeat is assured, and
his defeat would be warning to Demo
Gratis"
That simply means the defeat OF VIII
son by the corrupt use OF money, and
thereby shows all Democrats that they
dare aot honestly represent the right
OF the people. Senator Hoar said the
other day that the southern Brigadiers
had their grip on the throat Of the In
dustries OF New England. He was
mistaken In fact. TIE fact is the in
dustries OF New England have had
their grip Of the throat of the farmers
and consumers OF this country for
thirty years, and have well
nigh stranglsd them, too. A Demo
cratic Congress has forced them TO
relax their grip just little
and they are mad. He cited Mr.. Blalne's
book as proof OF prosperity under Dem
ocratic administration and low tariff.
and said taat the net results OF thirty
years OF Republican Administration and
high tariff were d depleted treasury,
hard times, high protective tariff,
trusts and traups. At seven o'clock
the court house was literally packed
and COL Wood spoke again. His elo.
quent speeches have made q great I'm
preston In Hardy county. and you may
put IL down for an increased Demo.
cratic majority. Col. Wood will speak
at Keyser Monday night.

CLARKsBURG, w. VA, November 4.
1t is now certain that the scheme in
this county Of Republicans to use local
issues, as the License Question. Z"
The City Charter" etc, was COM
menced little too soon, and the senti-
ment is beginning TO react, and by eiec
tion day they will wish that they
had never resorted to such methods.
They were contenting themselves with
making few votes in the country, and
now that the people understand the
matter, they will be exceedingly small,
but on the contrary they have aroused
the people TO such an extent In the city
that they have severely crippled their
cause, aud they may look out for a
Waterloo" Our people are In
telligent and progressive. They
feel that it is not right for
them longer to be confined the narrow
limits of the legislative enactment Of
Virginia in 1s49, creating The Town Of
Clarksburg. The population OF the
city has increased; its demands are
greater, and its powers under It's char
ter should be according increased, how
ever, as matter Of course with
all proper restrictions, TO secure TO
its citizens a good municipal govern
ment. And while a city charter may
make the people little more careful In
the selection Of its officials, nevertheless
IL will secure TO CIarksburg what she
now merits, with the spirit OF enter
prise more recently developed by her
citizens, and place her alongside Wheel
ing, Psrkersburg, Martinsburg and
Fairmont, which have experienced no
evil effect from managing their own
city matters, but on the contrary ele-
waited them to the high place they now
occupy.
We want it understood that the Dem
ocrats, and we are happy to say large
number OF the Republicans, are in ac-
cord with these views, and will see 10
it that Clsrksburg has a city charter.
Those candidates who are so narrow
minded as to oppose so commendable an
effort on the part our people will find a
bitter rebuke in store for them on merit

WASHINGTON, D. c., November A
The bright hopes that have been enter
tained by the military men that the
bicycle might be an effective adjunct in
war time have been dashed by the ex-
hauStive trials made in Germany, France
and Austria of bicycle corps. United
States Consul Stephen at Annaberg has
transmitted to the State Department an
article from a military correspondent
upon the result OF trials made in Ger
many, which he says correspond to
those obtained in France and Austria.
He says:
1--WE had on Trustworthy authority
that the results Of the trials which the
various army corps have made with the
cyclists by no means come up to the eI-
pectatiOns which were formed.
The correspondent details one or two
cases wherein the cyclists were of ser
vice as mounted Dostmen, but says that
where the roads were bad, they were no
use at all, and certainly can never re-
place the mounted orderly.

meetings with Republican managers.
A telegram from Keyser Informs US that
this empoye Of that corrupt and gigan-

Elkins aud T. b. Davis in Kyser this
morning, and 1t is perfectly apparent
that Pownall brought here this morn

Thousands of circulars containing this

circulated over the county, and an i'm

DENVER. Colo, November Airs.
James D. Scott, wife of the proprietor
of the Capitol Turf Exchange, van
Quished three burglars who broke into
her house last night, after desperate
fight, in which she was seriously in
jured.
One Of the men was armed with re-
volver, another with Slung shot and
the third with billy. With these weap-
ons they rained blow after blow upon
her head, arms and body, but she
fought so energeticaly aud raised such
an outcry that they beat retreat with
out taking any Of the jewelry or
other valuables lying about. The
battle lasted nearly ten minutes, but
Mrs. Scott did not faint until her as
sailants had gone. An hour elapsed
before she revived sufficiently TO give
an account of the affair She is hand
some woman of As, six feet tall and
weighs 200 pounds. She was alone 10
the house ready for bed when the burg
lars assaulted her.

parted in every direction during the
evening. The chairman Of all the Re-

Is Of them-received $500 each early In
the contest for purposes Of preliminary
organization. Three weeks ago S100
each was given TO them. Last Saturday
further dividend Of $500 for each
chairman was declared and yesterday,

aggregates more than S43, 900 and this
is by no means all that has been eX-
pended.

sci to do part of the work
which really belonged to the stamp
duty, and Sinsel objected. Dssensions
arose, Sensel was likely 10 lose his job,
aud Dayton got mad at White, aud
though commanding a large English
vocabulary, he could not fnd anything
in the English language sufficiently
strong and expressive TO denounce
White. He even recommended White
TO a director OF the State Reform School
as a suitable person 20 place In charge
of that institution, saying that White
had shown a fondness for criminals,
reprobates and scalawags, as he had
surrounded himself in office with the
rag.tag and offal OF the Republican
party OF the State. But now White
and Dayton show an affection for each
other that really is refreshing.

In order 70 draw a crowd II was adVer-

did not work. A great many Republicans
did not have enthusiasm enough 20 turn

compelled 10 stop twice and ask his Re-

smothered yell was given once or twice,
which should have been enough 10 con-
vince Dayton that his services are not
needed. His own party did not approve
Of the manner in which be discussed

speech as whole 1t would make sn ex.

He pleaded for protection 90 the artl-

tories at Parkersburg. After he told
the people about fifteen cent wool, one
gentleman in the back part Of the
house said:
II am a Republican, Dot as | am
