The Democratic Candidate for state
Senator.


The senatorial convention for tn lie
district met in Grafton on Wednes.
day, September 30th, and unani-
mously nominated j. Slidell Brown.
the editor of the Kingwood Argus
as the Democratic candidate for state
senator from this district. No bet.
ter nomination could have been made
Mr.. Brown is a young man who by
his own efforts has risen to the posi-
tion he occupies in society.
At II years of age Mr.. Brown be-
gan to teach school. Later he went
into merchandising. but says there
wasn't enough free silver in the
country to do business on and he
quit that. For a number of years
he has been publishing the King
wood Argus, which is recognized as
one of the leading Democratic pa
pers of the state. He is Chairman
Of the County Democratic Commit
tee of Preston county and also Post
master for Kingwood. In addition
to this Mr.. Brown is President OF
the West Virginia Editorial Associ-
alton and Secretary Of the Judicial
and Senatorial committees of his dis
trict. He was also an Alternate at
large to the convention that nomi-
mated Bryan. From this it may read
lily be seen what busy man Mr..
Brown is and what his capacity for
work is and what his neighbors-
those who know him best--think OF
him.
When quite small his mother was
left widow with several children
Of whom he was the oldest. Through
his efforts the mother was enabled
to bring them all up and give them
some education. Such man de-
serves and will always have the re-
spect of people both friends and
foes.
Arrangements will be made 20
have him visit Morgantown and
meet our people.

Jane Combs.

A rare dramatic feast was spread at
Tootle's theatre yesterday. Miss Jane
Combs appeared at the matinee as
Juliet in Shakespeare's sRomeo and
Juliet" and at night Dickens "Bleak
House," to decidedly fashionable
house. 1t can be truthfully said that
the engagement was a success as two
more delighted audiences have not
left Tootle's this season.
Miss Coombs' reading of Juliet
charmed every ear in the large audi
ence, her pathos touched all hearts,
and at times her passion fairly cleo
trified the house. At night it was re-
freshing to look upon the audience
that witnessed "Bleak House." Most
of those present at some time during
their life had fallen under the magic
spell of Charles Dickens, had been en-
thralled by the wonderful power OF
his matchless stories and with thrill
remember yet the old old tales of hui
man misery and despair that darken
the pages Of that Immortality. Y.

chairman and N. f. Shafer, sec'y
j. Slidell Brown, of Preston, was

there is very little chance of Mr..

wisdom and will add strength to
the entire ticket.
