Wants a Farmer for Congress-
To the Editor Of the Register

To the Editor Of the Register.
Weston, w. Va, August 5.-We are
on the eve of the Congressional Conven-
ton in the First District of West Vir-
GINA, and the question as TO who the
Democracy shall nominate for standard
bearer IS occupying considerable puDAc
attention. Prior TO the Chicago con-
vention it was the claim of the gold
standard PRESS that West Virginia, as
| whole. would repudiate the principles
maintained by the advocates OF the free
and unlimited coinage OF silver, ana
! that especially was this so in the tlFst
district. Events since that time nave
shown that they were false prophets.
] The rural districts" have been heard
from and have been found solidly IN
favor of a return to the money OF the
/ Constitution" The farmers, the produ-
GERS, who are the real source OF al
wealth, have been too greatly e1ected
by the steady, but sure, decline in prices
since 1873, to be uamindful Of the Ell
fects of the single gold standard when
| the money changers wish 10 fasten
upon us permanently.
They have been doing some thinking
| for themselves, and the silver craze Is
| the result of their deliberate consider
alton OF the money question.
They are aroused as nsver before, and
! are fighting as never before, for their
right and very independence.
1t is no longer a partisan question, its
a patriotic necessity and The people are
once more 'in the saddle" They mean
to be recognized, they will be heard.
None but the true and tried will b put
on guard AS leaders we want odd
liners, and not new recruits. Men who
command the respect and confidence OF
! thsir fellow citizens, and have never be-
trayed the trust imposed upon them.
Such a man will the farmers OF the
! First Congressional district of West
| Virginia demand as their candidate for
Congress, and the eXigencies of the sit
uation suggests that this be acceeded TO.
In this fight it is principle and not men
for which we are striving. The man is
only the representative Of the princi-
pie, and the people mean to see that in
this instance he in truth, and beyond
| question, rep. esents the idea.
| With q true leader. whom the people
1 can trust, this district is not doubtful
10 our cause, and we can redeem the
sat now held by the little Dovener.
Without such leader, it IS doubtful to
say the least.
The people will rally to any true and
tried Democrat. whose position on the
money question is and always has been
clearly understood. but he should be a
farmer This seems to be farmers year
and they are certainly "in politics. &"
Among the many, the name Of Col. A.
/ Woodford and Hon. Ira Post have been
| suggested as available candidates. Both
OF these gentlemen are practical farmers
and either would prove acceptable.
Give US a farmer, at any rate. and We
} will "as,onish the natives"

There will be but one Republican elect.

the coming November election. This was
finally determined yesterday by tho Ma.
tional Republican Committee at New
York, who will insist that ex Senator An.
thony Higgins withdraw his ticket and
allow the Union Republicans to carry the
State for Mckinley and Hobart
While this Is what has been anxiously
looked forward too by tho Republicans Of
the State it has met with big kick
among the Higgins Republicans This
morning they discussed the action of the
Committee and declared they would not
withdraw from the fight.
A dispatch says Of the Committees &C
ton: 1.-The trouble between the Addicks
and the Higgins factions in Delaware re-
ceived consideration and it was generally
agreed to recommend to Chairman Han
ma that efforts be made to induce the Hig.
gins electors to withdraw. The Addioks
electors have signiilcd their intention Of
remaining Oh, the ticket and will accept
no compromise,
Chairman Hanna recently refused to
listen to any proposition involving the
withdrawal of the Higgins electors, but it
is believed that in Wow of the firm stand
taken by Mr. Addicks, Chairman Hanna
will yield in order to save the State for
Mckinley, and prevail upon ex-senator
Higgins to withdraw his electoral ticket
From the foregoing it can be seen that
efforts have been made to bring together
the warning factions, but without result.
Union Republicans have madc conces-
sions until they are tired and now declare
that nothing more will be done by them
to reunitc the party.
On the other hand tho "Rcgulars" have
done nothing but war against tho Union.
