The Berkeley Springs News, after
stating that its editor is a Sound
Money Democrat and is glad of it /;
voted for Palmer and Buckner and is
proud OF it has been a Cleveland,
Wilson, Tilden, Jacksonian, Jeffer-
sonian Democrat from start to finish
and proposes to so continue, booms
our fellow-citizen in the following
handsome style:
"Hon. Geo. M Bowers, of Martins
burg, is a candidate for the Collector
ship of Internal Revenue, that he is a
Republican is known to everyone in
this county; that small minority of
Republicans hereabouts, including
Hon. Lewis Largent, have opposed
this appointment is true. The News
begs leave to say that no other ap-
pointment would crafty such a ma
jority Of our people as would the APP
pointment of Mr.. Bowers. A sterling
Republican, a staunch citizen, with a
legion of friends, man deserving of
his party's support. We are for him
for Aud Lang Syne, and because he
has been friend OF Morgan county
when we needed friends. Governor
Atkinson in his appointments has
ignored the Eastern Panhandle and it
does seem to us as if gentleman for
whom SO much can be said, and so lit
tie against ought to receive this APP
pointment-solely and wholly because
he deserves il 4"

Mr.. J. A. Oldfield, editor of the
Hinton Republican, announces that
he will sever his connection with the
Republican on the 25th inst, and
that he will engage in basiness in
another place. We do not know Mr..
Oldfeld's intentions, but having been
acquainted with him for a number of
years, we do know him to be man
of worth and an answering Re-
publican and wish him to meet sue
cess wherever he may locate.

The free traders Of the country will
endeavor to warm the people of the
inevitable consequences of foreign re-
taliation, which they will assert, will
be sure to follow the adoption of dis
eliminating duties for the protection
of American ships. But the people
will not be misled. They will be
shown, and the proofs exist in abund-
ance upon the testimony of British
commercial historians of established
repute, that every form of retaliation
possible was previously adopted. The
result of retaliation was to diminish
American purchases of foreign manu-
features in the countries that retaliat-
ed, and to increase American home
manufacturing as well as American
purchases from the countries which
did not retaliate. While there was
no perceptible diminution of foreign
purchases of American cotton and
grain such expectations were gener-
ally made in American vessels to the
countries more anxious for cheap
food and cheap raw material and an
American market for their manufac-
lures, than for conducting a losing
fight against American ships. Re-
taliation is spectre invoked by the
pro- British free traders solely to delay
readoptiou on our part of the dis
eliminating duty policy Prom Gun
tons Magazine On. W, for April.

Died..

The cruel angel of death entered
the home of George and Emma Belle
Herbert, on Monday, April S, 1897,
and snatched from them the flower
and pet OF their happy home, in the
person of their dear and loving
daughter, Blanche Elizabeth, aged 8
months and days. She was very
sweet and precious little damsel, and
it seemed so sad that she had to leave
US so early in life, But it was the will
of our Heavenly Father to take our
loved one so soon. Our sympathy
goes with the sorrowiug and heart
broken father and mother.
Lonely the house and sad the hour,
Since Blanche's sweet smiles are gone;
But, Oh, brighter home than ours,
In heaven is now her own.
Shed not one tear of sorrow
Around her lonely tomb;
Think what lovely flower,
In heaven we have to bloom.
Farewell, farewell our little dear,
Life is so sad without thee here;
OH may we meet in heaven above,
Where all is joy, and peace, and love.

You Want TO Buy
Buggyl

If you do, you want an assortment
from which to make a selection. In
that case, if you want phaeton, sur
reg, buggy, trap, or stick wagon,
why not call on Sencindiver & Stew
art, on Winchester avenue? They
have the Studebaker Langtry Surrey,
Popular Phaeton, Izzer Buggy, Prim-
rose and Clipper, without tops, some
thing new in the Studebaker line,
and about 40 others from which to
select, all at very reasonable prices.

The Herald begs to inform the
Pioneer Press that so far as our in
formation goes there are no colored
men in Jefferson county who are APP
plicants for post-ofFices. 1t might not
be aniss to note that the editor of the
Herald makes it point to avoid
taking part in local contests, and as
he has not been solicited to aid anyone
in Jefferson, white or colored, he is
therefore fancy-free and wholly I'M
trammeled.
