ANOTHER FROST.
Congressman Dayton and His Henchmen
Meet Cold Reception at Parsons

To the Editor of the Register.
Parsons, w. Va, October 1S.-The
Grand Republican Rally so much
talked of and so much advertised to
take place here yesterday was fat
failure. Scarcely % Republicans came
in from the country and only about
100 men, women and children were
out to hear Dayton speak A goodly
number of them were Democrats.
Parsons has population of 1000.
Congressman Dayton, Hon. John w.
Mason and ]. G. st. Clair were all here
and spoke, but no enthusiasm was
shown. Dayton looked thoroughly dis
gusted and discouraged, and he had
the best of reasons for it. All the old
time Republican workers and leaders
were conspicuous by their absence. but
Daytcn's political doctor, the doughty
Col. Gould, was on hand, but was not
seen much with him. And there is
where the rub comes

Valentine were out Of town. DR.. r. M.
Austin, ex- Sheriff M. v. Miller and
nearly all the cid soldiers in town
failed to come out to hear the man
who will be defeated this fall by Col.
McGraw. Miller was chairman of the
reception committee, but refused to
serve.
The meeting here has stirred up a
hornets nest, and things are in worse
shape than before the meeting.
St Clair got thoroughly disguised
and left for Grafton Monday evening,
and Dayton and Mason spoke that
night at Hulings to a small crowd.
Neither in Parsons nor Rulings did
Dayton successfully explain any Of the
charges made against his public rec
ord by Col. McGraw. He cannot ex-
plain away his niggardly treatment of
the old soldiers, nor his naughty, dis
dainful refusal to recognize the humble
petitions of the miners and other Ia
borers because their hands were soiled
by honest toll. These honest people
at last realize that Dayton is the
willing tool of corporations and
mCnopolies.
Col. McGraw speaks here Friday of
this week, when it is expected he will
show up Dayton's do-nothing record
in Congress. 2. o. J.

Not Likely TO Be Sent to Congress
Again---A Brief Review of His
Record =. DR.. Moores Successful
Canvass.

Special to the Register.
STEUBENVILLE, o., October 2O.-The
Congressional campaign in this district
is proceeding in a quiet way, and the in
dicationS are that DR.. E. D. Moore, of
Harrison county, will be elected Every
where he has gone so far in his canvass
of the district ne has been pleasantly re-
ceived and has had assurances from
scores of Republicans that they intend TO
vote and work for his election. In every
way, in ability, in point of character.
morality, ETC., DR.. Moore is fitted to rep
resent this district He is a thoroughly
equipped man. AS pension examiner in
harrison county his official work gave
entire satisfaction to the soldiers.
Danford, the people feel, has been an
utter failure in office. He has failed to
work for Ohio river legislation, which
his constituents have been demanding.
Old soldiers have had to write to Con-
gressmen in other districts to get pensi in
claims attended to. The G. o. P. poll
ticians Of the younger school will not
weep if Danford is defeated. The man
ner in which Danford secured his recent
nomination by bulldozing tactics through
executive committees has arrayed many
voters against him. Danford is meeting
with a frost all over the district. The Old
soldiers who have heretofore formed the
bulk of his strong support are grimly
biding their time to swipe him.
The fact that Danford is out for sixth
term is causing many anti-third term peo-
pie to line up against him.
Danford has never answered the open
letter addressed to him by J. C. Ault, of
the First o. V. I. Among other things
Mr. Ault wrote: eve think it strange
that you, a comrade, would so effectually
and systematically ignore the old SOL
diers. In no case thus far in this county
where a civilian has come in competition
with soldier for any office in your gift
has the latter been successful. The SOL
diers of this county are mortified and in
dignant and nothing on your part can
condone for the manifest injury and

SOMETHING ABOUT THE AUTHOR.

Alice Williamson has made q great
reputation among the younger genera
ton of novelists. Born in 1869 at one
of the Livingstone Manor Houses ON
the Hudson River, for She was a Miss
Livingstone, she commenced to weave
romances before she could hardly
write OF her very youthful efforts
none has ever seen the light in print,
but when she was only fifteen her first
short story was published. Even then
she did not embark upon the profess
sion of literature seriously. Going
over to England for stay of six or, at
the longest, twelve months, she be-
came engaged to Mr.. Williamson, a
well-known personality in tho Journal
istic world, and was shortly after
wards married. Almost directly after
her marriage about four years ago,
she recommended her literary labors.
Her first efforts were in the direction
Of character sketches which were done
with the vigor and the power OF
graphic narration which have 60
charmed the readers Of her later stor-
les. Then Mrs. Williamson embarked
upon a more arduous undertaking of
a serial story for Messrs. Harms
worth. The story was a complete
success, and having found her particu-
lar bent" Mrs. Williamson has pro-
gressed, adding many other successful
stories to her initial venture as q
novelist.

THIRD STATEMENT.


I wish to say in answer to some of the
Republican journals who wish to assail
me in regards my articles always appear
ing in Democratic papers, that the Re-
publican papers allow articles to appear
against me but refuse to allow me space
to reply. I tried the Fairmont West Vir-
ginian. 1t very politely declined. I only
write this to set people right. OF course,
1 haven't time to fool with editors who
pose as Republicans, who used to run
Democratic newspapers. My time, feeble
as it may be, will be devoted to the de-
feat of a man who has been in Congress
for years and who has never recognized
a petition of laboring men, though it be
one-half mile long.
Very respectfully,
A. L. HEFFNER.

THREE STATEMENTS
Concerning Second District Politics--Rea-
sons for Opposing Dayton.


FAIRMONT, w. Va, October 2-The
Republican State press refusing A. L.
Heffner the use of their columns, he
hands the Register correspondent these
three statements:
1 see that Mr.. E. M. Showalter signs
his name to an article in the West Vlr-
ginian and reads Republicans out of the
party for refusing to support A. G. Day
ton. I would like to say TO Mr.. Showal-
ter if he means ne, that he is a fine
specimen to try to chastise people. He
had not set his grip down in Marion
until he wanted office. But the people
did not want him. He had the gall to GO
before the convention a second time; The
gallant Harry Shaw defeated him. The
next time we hear from him he is after
the assistant district attorneyship. That
hung fire awhile. Can the people remem-
Der how he tore his hair, swearing VEN
geance on both Elkins and Dayton. And
yet he poses as a Republican and is sec
rotary of the Congressional committee.
Could that 1,5O0 salary have anything to
do with it? Now, as to the F'airmont
postoffice and my position, will say that
Mr.. Dayton was mortally afraid of the
poor black faced miner, so we think we
will stand before the people equally as
we'll as Mr.. Showalter.
(Signed) A. L, FEFFNER,
THE SECOND STATEMENT.
From the tone of the press in the Sec
ond Congressional district, they are try
ing to read us out of the Republican par
ty, but in justice to ourselves we will say
we expect to support our Republican sem
atorial and county, tickets IT looks TO lis
like some people would sink all the coun-
ty offices to save Dayton. Our hostility
to Dayton is on account of his infamous
actions towards the laboring classes and
the poor old soldiers.

is without the indelicacy that characterzes
them. The dialogue is we'll written, though
little slow at first. The sketch was re-
ceived with enthusiastic applause, flowers
