Cap. Hatfield, who did the fatal shoot
ing ut Matewan on Tuesday, was cap
tured Thursday night by Deputy Sheriff
Clark, of Matewan. Hatfield was being
searched for by about 100 men, who had
been securing the country since Tuesday
He was discovered in n hut on the

was accompanied by his son, lad of
about II years old, who is said to have
shot two of the victims in the fight of

the hut and got the drop on Hatfield who

it seems, killed one of the victims, and
his son, the other prisoner killed the
other two.
The feeling in Matcwan is intensely
strong against the prisoners, and no
effort will be spared TO give them the cx-
treme penalty of the law
Cap. Hatfield has now eight murders
To answer for, and is not yet forty years
OF age. This is said TO be the first fatal
affray i'll which his son has taken part,
but the fact that ut 10 years of age he has
the blood of two murdered men on his
hands shows that he has all the instincts
Of the traditional desperate, and that he
has not been retired from active life any
too soon for the credit OF the community
and the welfare of its citizens

SABBATH REFLECTIONS.

Now that the election is over and mems
minds can be turned from the all.eXcit-
ing subject Of politics, it will be well for
all to pause and reflect on the evils and
the benefits connected with this ali.ab-
sorbing question. For three months or
more the people of the United States have
been listening to speeches. marching II

dent-elect of the republic. Although he
has been successful, nearly onc-alf of his
fellow citizens believe that BRYAN should

suit. The Republicans, however. will 20

100000. The Houston Post, Democrat,
claims that Bryan's majority is $50, 900,
but even allowing the first figures only,
they are enough To satisfy the country
that nearly all of the national Republican

The Presidency,

Ex-Governor Russell of Massachusetts de-
clares in interview that he Is not only
not seeking the presidency but would not
care to take up the burdens Of the office
If they were thrust upon him. Let US hope
that Mr.. Russell spoke hurriedly. or in that
Pickwickian sense so often employed by
ambitious men. The sentiment. taken seri-
ously. would not reflect credit on young
man of parts, with some experience of
public office, and with every reason to
desire more.
But there is a good deal of this sort of
talk. Mr.. Russell Is by no means the only
offender. What is the authority for 1t:
The presidency is a great office, undoubt-
eddy. 1t imposes burdens on the incum-
bent. But it does not break him. nor make
a slave or hermit of him. That is to say,
he need not, unless he chooses, so suffer.
There is reason why the President
should become a prisoner in the White
House. The people do not expect or require
that. They do not desert him, but hold
him iii remembrance and honor, and are
always at his service. He has eight con-
hdential advisers, each at the head of an
important executive department of the gov
eminent, and all chosen by himself. The
cabinet. when we'll constructed, is a strong
staff upon which any President may lean.
AS members, as rule, are men OF high
caliber, competent themselves to sit at the
head Of the table. Why, then, with such
assistance. should the President be a lonely
or an Overworked man?
The fact is that the presidency as a bur-
oen. is what the incumbent makes It, If
he is a man distrustful of the people and
anxious to monopolize authority, he will
soon find himself hermit and something
OF slave. II he withdraws himself from
the people, the people acquesce They will
not hunt him for his society And If he
undertakes to look after all the business of
the departments he has his hands full
