A MARIETTA MAN
Has a Novel Experience With
An old Acquaintance.

II ordinary mortals and Marietta
mortals, are no exception, get a cinder
in the eye, or If some disagreeable
wound or compound fracture of limb
falls to their lot, every available means
is employed to dislodge the former and
the best known expedieuts are used to
bind up or set the latter. If The aver
age citizen has a corn OF backache he
wants to get rid of it as long as it is
an annoyance, but if it eases up little
and firts with him for short time
the anxiety to part with 1t diminishes
in direct ratio to the flirting.
Take backache for instance. 1t is
generally little thing at first but if
not attended to in time, it invariably
leads to future trouble. This need not

this:-Mr.o F. M. Longley, of No. 206

tacbs of kidney complaint for a long
time but during the last five years
they have been more severeand almost
continual. l need not go into all the
particulars of the symptoms. Every
body who has had disordered kidneys
knows all about it. What to do when
suffering is of more Importance. AS

This great Republican leader took
snuff eighteen years ago, and mis- party
are still sneezing. Is it possible that
forty-fye young giant States must wait
upon the old "pauperized, efete' coun-
tries OF Europe TO do what they alone

rant masses Of Europe through their
lords and masters to dictate 10 them
what they Shall use as a medium of
exchange? Il seems 10 me the height Of
nonsense. AS Horace Greedy said about
resumption of specie payment, "the way
to resumption is 10 resume" so l say
about reconciliation, the way to re-
mOnetization is to remonetize. But, if
Mr.. Blaines argument is sound at the
beginning Of his speech, silver never

be. Therefore, if, in Mr.. Blaine's opin-
ion, Congress had no power 10 demOne-

A CORRECTION.
To the Editor Of the Register.

To the Editor Of the r. gisteT.
Martinsburg, w Va, August 20.-As
the duly elected secretary Cf the Thir-
teenth Senatorial convention Of Demo-
Gratis. held in Martinsburg, Wednesday,
August 18th, I desire to correct an err
roneOus impression produced by your
correspondent from this city when he
undertakes to explain Jefferson action
in the convention.
Mr. Shafier secured Jeffersons vote
because ne was entitled to il as the re-
suit OF a primary election held in that
county for the purpose of nominating
candidates. Two names for the offic Of
State Senator were placed on che Jeffer-
son ticket. namely, Hon. Allen Viewer
and Mr.. d. NJ. Shafier. M Weyer, at
the last moment, announced his with
draWcl n favor of Mr.. R. c. Burkhart,
but it came too late to make the change
Cn the already printed tickets, and as
a result Mr.. Shaffer carried the county
by over zoo majority, and, as provided
by rules governing said election, was
entitled to name the delegates. When
the convention proceeded to ballot, Nor
gan county cast her vote almost solid
for M Shaffer, which was her privilege.
Judge Lucas simply performed the
duties Of an intelligent delegate, from a
county which makes it rule to send
representative men TO conventions, as
does the county Of Morgan.
Mr.. Shaffer was nominated because
he had a majority of the delegates, and
for no other reason.

HANNA's HEART TOUCHED
BY the Loyalty of McKinIey's New
York Supporters.

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-The committee
on organization of the Mckinley
league, the state Republican organiza-
ton, which opposes the faction led by
ex-senator Plat, held a meeting to-
presence of Chairman Hanna, of the
Republican national committee. Hon.
Warner Miller, John Milholland and T.
V. Powderly, were among those who
took part in the proceedings. The presi-
dent of the league, George Matthews,
of Buffalo, spoke of Mr.. Hanna as one
under whose leadership the forces of
honesty and Americanism have won the
greatest victory that the people of this
country have known since Appomat-
toX." In response Mr.. Hanna said:
| wish that l had time to give to you work
ers something of the Details of the last cam
paign. You in the, East. except those who
have been at work in the field, can know
but little about the work in the Western
states and beyond and therefore cannot Judge
properly what this battle has been. have
been more than gratifed since coming to New
York, to hear the kind express ions on all
sides. Of course, it touches mans vanity
it has touched my heart and when 1 look
into the earnest faces around me, I begin TO
fully appreciate that every man in this room
is upon the side of honaet government and
in the efforts put forth in this great cam
paign, he, among many, has been a patriot
and none more so than the members of the
Mckinley league of the state of New York
| judge a mans patriotism by the sacri-
fees he las made. Let that be your motto
under whatever banner you work for the
future, and you will find in me a steadfast
friend.

JONES STILL HAS HOPES.
But 1t Is Only the Arkansas Village
Now With Him.

HOPE, Ark, Nov. "a public re-
ception was rendered Senator James
K. Jones this afternoon The meet
ing was arranged for the, purpose OF
allowing the senator's friends and
neighbors to show their appreciation Of
his work in the recent campaign and
from every point it was a great success.
After cordial greeting Senator Jones
spoke an hour or more on the campaign
He said that the result was a victory
for the Democratic party; that while
it had lost the election, it had not lost
the fight. The free coinage of silver was
stronger than ever. He paid high tri-
butte to William J. Bryan, and said he
had made one of the most wonderful
fights that had ever been made by any
leader. The senator did not make any
effort at a set speech, but talked to his
friends in a conversational tone His
remarks, nevertheless, elicted generous
applause. His farmer friends were out
in force and many Populists and Re-
publicans were in the audience and
Joined in to make the welcome a hearty
one. Senator Jones will remain in
Hope several days before leaving for
Washington.
