The Republican State convention
at Parkersburg, July 22d, adopted
the following resolutions:
We earnestly, heartily and with
out any reservation, endorse the able
and patriotic platform adopted by
the National Republican Conven-
ton at St. Louis, emphasizing es-
pecially ats utterance in favor of
protection, reciprocity and sound
money. We are more than satisfied
with the candidates, and pledge to
Mckinley and Hobart our untiring
and earnest support until they shall
be triumphantly elected.
We condemn the populistic, an
archistic, Democratic platform
adopted at Chicago for its vicious
attack on the Supreme and other
Federal Courts upon the enforce
ment of law. The Republican par
ty is unalterably in favor Of right.
eous laws, wisely enforced
We condemn the Chicago plan of
campaign for its imputation upon
the honesty and patriotism Of the
American people. We are confident
that the great heart of the Ameri-
can people beats responsiveIy to the
principles Of truth and righteous
ness. We condemn them for their
anarchistic attempt 70 array class
against class. The interest of one
Is the concern Of all.
We commend the last Legislature
for industry, intelligence and econ
omy. We point with pride to the
fact that IL accomplished all needed
legislation within the constitutional
period of forty-fve days and saved
the people many thousands Of dol
lars a. compared with the last Dem

We most heartily approve the &C.

Internationally the offer 20 make a

ginia existing prior 20 the first day
Of January, 1861, upon a basis fixed

fair and unjust, a. 70 make it mani
fest Sat no settlement was deserved.
We are firmly Of the opinion that
the State Of West Virginia has long

Virginia refused to meet our com

pose and has arbitrarily set apart

ED. ADVANCE,
Strive hear over here that
Billy Mansfield is to come-off of
the track. We are all around here
mighty sorry to hear this news, for
we wanted TO be at the coming-off
that is, we wanted to help Billy
Barlow off of his high perch. So
you see we have room to feel sorry
at the sad news. We can't tell the
reason for this strange move, but
we have concluded that somebody
that is much wiser than he can
dare be, has seen the writing on
the wall and has told him some
thing was a going to "drap," and
he had better "git out from un-
der" 1t is lucky for him, for be-
fore the SHOWS of winter could
come he would be showed under sc
far that q returning board could
never dig him up. Poor Billy could
not save Windy Wil-and now
Windy will not save him.

ity before the law in the matter of
taxation. We declare the present
ystem of forcing the agricultural
classes to pay taxes on their debts
to be manifestly unjust. We de-
mand that our present assessment
law be SO changed as to allow far
mers the same privilege which are
accorded to other citizens of our
State.
We cannot too strongly endorse
and commend the able, patriotic and
statesmanlike conduct of our below

performance of their duties incur

We cordially invite all persons
who believe in the principles and
policies set forth in the foregoing
resolutions to unite with us in elect

and the national Republican ticket.
The resolutions were passed with
tremendous cheers.
