tired in handsome uniforms and ele-
CANT paraphernalia, which all goes to
prove that the Republican managers
have plenty of money 10 use this year
for campaign purposes. The Eikins
Cadets were to have been in line, but
refused to turn out because the Six
F'ooters were given the right of line.
Several of the Cadets. instead of turning
out, came down and stood in front OF
the R gster Office and burned red fire
While the procession passed by.
y a large crowd gathered at the meet
ing place, and just few minutes be-
fore the speaking began considerable ex-
element was caused by the rear Of the
platform giving way with a great crash
and prec.pitating thirty or more people
TO the ground. Fortunately no one was
injured. The chairman Of the meeting
Introduced Mr. w. P. Blake, of East
Liverpool, with the announcement that
Mr.. Blake would refute the charges made
against Mr.. Walker by members OF the
local union.
Mr. Blake, in his alleged refutation,
n no particular made an explanation
of the feeling which is manifested by
pottery M against Mr.. Walker, but
simply made the statement that he had
known Mr.. Walker for a number of
years, and knew nothing against him.
In addition he read telegram received
from the potters' union of East Liver
pool to the effec, thai they had no record
of Mr.. Walker ever "3caDbing."
Mr.. Walker proceeded to make a
rank partisan speech against Bryan and
Democracy. The speech, like all others
which have been made this year by Re-
publican orators, was not an exposition
of Republican doctrine, but TRADE Of
abuse heapsd upO2 the nominee of the
Democratic party and its principles,
terming Inc one a demagCgue and hypo-
critic and thd other socialism and an
archy. He denounced the alleged al
tempt of Bryan to bring down the wages
OF the workngman by his tariff policy
TO the Level of the crazy farmers Of the
Far West, who get only SIS month and
their board" The Register also came in
for its share of advertisement. Follow
ing Mr.. Walker, Mr.. Bake again took
the floor. and in a loud toned voice,
preached against the 'barbarians, So
,iaiists and anarchists of the Demo-
cratic party.

A JOINT DEBATE
On the Silver Question in Marshall County
Thursday.

Over five hundred people assembled
at Terrell school house, Marshall coun-
". Thursday evening. to hear a joint
discussion OF the silver question be-
tween Peter Crow. ESD, prominent
farmer of that place. and a former Re-
publican. and J. 7. Francis, prominent
Republican politician OF Nou1dsylile.
ThemeetingW the result of challenge
Of Mr. Francis to Mr.. Crow. Mr.. Fran
els learned that t1a farmers In that 10
cality have for some time past had their
studying caps on and are well posted on
che financial and political issues, and
that in tackling Nj Crow he was about
to run into g buzz saw. When the hour
came MI Francis was on hand, with D.
B. Evans and VIM. n. Dovener. two
McunGsyille attorneys and Republican
orators. Mr.. Francis promptly fiunked
and endeavored to substitute Messrs.
Evans and Dovener in his place. Mr..
Crow then substituted Hen. l.. S. New
man and J. N. Ritz in his place. They
completely overwhelmed Messrs. Evans
and D0vener in the discussion and the
result was a great victory for the Demo-
cracy. Quite a number Of the Republic
cans and Populis,s of this community
came forward Fl the close Of the meet
ing and pledged their vote to Mr.. New
man for State Senator. Mr.. Francis en-
deavored to retrieve himself by chal-
longing Mr.. Newman to a joint discus
sion at the Court House in Moundsville.
Mr.. w. n. Meighen, 4 member Of the
Democratic Senatorial Committee, re-
sponded that Mr.. Newman could not af-
ford to waste time with Mr.. Francis. who
had shown The white feather on his &C.
casicn, but th2; MI Newman would can
eel any Of his dates 10 meet his oppo-
nent in the Senatorial contest, Hon. S.
W. Matthews, in joint discussion
througCut the district
This seemed TO put a cuietus upon the
challenging spirit Of the Republicans,
as it brought forth no response. This
has been the great Republican strong
hold Of Marshall county. but will this
time give a majority for Bryan and Sew
al, honest money and plenty OF it.

Your favor OF the Dist received inviting

Joint discussions at the county seats and
other places in the counties of the First
district.
ION September nth Can't Dovener's
itinerary was arranged for the whole cam
paiCn and the meetings have been ar
ranged for him. He has already visited
most of the county seats ana everywhere
his meetings are largely attended 10y Dem
ocrats as well as Republicans. The cam
pcigu we are conducting is wholly on pa
uiotiC lines without any appeal 10 prelu-
dice. and we are perfectly satisfied with
the results.
"The tendency of joint discussions-and
sometimes their objects to excite party
prejudice; this we do rot want We pre-
fer to cultivate peace and 500! viii among
men rather than malice. to appeal TO their
patriotism and INTEL CenCe rather than TO
their passions; TO make friends not enc
mics.
For the reasons above given we respect
fully decline your invitation.
&C d. ELLIOTT. Chairman.
'W. J. ". COWDEN, Secretary
It will be seen by a perUsal of the Re-
publican Committees funk that they
decline to mset Col. Arnett under The
specious plea that they can better "cul-
t.vate peace and good will" by allowing
Capt. D0vener to have his say without
any one to question his statements or
dispute his propositions. Doubtless this
is true. from a Republican standpoint,
but it shows either weak and vulner-
able cause, or determination that the
people shall rot b. allowed to hear a far
presentation Of both sides Of the case
and then be left to exercise their jucg-
ment. intelligence and common sense.
The appeals 20 patriotism and intei!i-
gence" referred to in the Republican re-
lection OF the Democratic offer IS laugh
able under the circumstances. Il the
"patr!odsm and intelligence of a people
are to decide a great national question:
and decide it for the good of the coun-
try. that patriotism and intelligence
can in no way be better appealed TO
than by a fair and square debate OF mat
issue by those taking opposite sldes.
The only reasonable inference is that
The Renublicans are either afraid OF their
candidate or ashamed ol their cause.
Maybe il is a little OF both.

a pay that appeals with peculiar f0rct
to the human heart and stiTs 10 its low
est depths that element Of human nature
known as love of fair play" Rosa
mond is a character to challenge the
sympathy and interest Of the most in
different play-gOers. Spurned becausa
she has been denied the privilege of law

the adopted father of her lover, and as
sails the cruelty OF his sex toward her
own, in a way that makes the old man
with ewth remorse, for the ghost Of
Helsn Gray. the beautiful victim of his
own sins long ago, rises before him. He
attempts to excuse his fellow sinners, but
the woman overwhelms with her re-
morseless logic. II is a fine battle, this

DECLINE WITH THANKS,
Democrats Challenge Capt. DOvener tt
a Joint Debate
On the Issues of the Campaign With
Col. Arnett, But the Invitation Is
Declined-The Walker Meeting.
Last Night - General Political
News of the Day.

The Republicans have maintained
their record for political cowardice by
refusing cordial invitation from the
Democratic Congressional Committee to
arrange a series of joint debates between
Col. Arnett and Capt. Dovener upon the
political issues Of the present campaign.
No one will be surprised at this funk,
for it S in keeping with the history of
the party in this end Of the State.
Il is an organization which appears to
thrive best on secret work, ex parte
statements, brag, buster and bold asser-
ton, and it invariably runs from any,
thing approaching a fair and square
discussion of issues before the voters.
The intimidation CT vours, through cor
porate and other influences, is much
more to the Republican taste To init
mate to a railroad man thai it would be
em.nantly proper for him to wear a Nc
Kinley button or take trip to Canton, TO
take a straw vote" among the employees
of a big factory, or TO have man dis
charged for refusing to bend his neck to
the Mark Hanna yoke, is something Re
pub,cans can look upon with sat,sfac-
ton and defend with earnestness, but to
stand up in a fair and square discussion
b fore the peop,e-n.Xy! They migh0
get the worst OF il, and the people might
see through some of their arguments
and fail to believe a few assertions.
The correspondence on the subject fol-
lows:
