try. in 1856. he removed at once to
Wheeling, where he embarked in a
business which he followed for forty
two years. 4 wife and four children
survive him, the latter being Mrs.
Charles Killmyer, of this city, and

habits, yet possessed a wide circle Of
warm personal friends, and TO these

POLITICAL NOTES.

Hon. c. P. Dorr, Of Webster county,
is at the Hotel Windsor. on his way
10 Woodsfeld, O., where he goes to
look after some business matters. Mr..
Dorr, when Intercepted on the out
come Of the election, was frank to adj
nit that he expected just what had
happened. and would not have been
surprised had the Democrats carried
every Congressional district in the
State. He said the people viii not sub
nit TO ring rule. and especially such
a ring as conducted the last Republi-
can campaign in this State. Mr. DOrr
said wherever it was understood that
candidates for the Legislature stood
for certain men for United States
Senator these candidates were beaten,
and instanced the counties of Taylor
and Berkeley, and counties south Of
the Kanawha river. where the Demo-
Gratis generally elected their candidates

ALEXANDER ,, Sls' s' H,I,.

short time before the late election The
candidate was talking with a personal
friend, and referring to one of the Ohio
County Republican candidates for
House of Delegates, said: He is not
for me- oh, yes, he is said the
friend, what makes you think he is
against you're We'll, l know he is
against me- said the Senatorial can
didate." But what makes you think
so?" insisted the friend. Because"
said the candidate, with something
akin to a sob. he is in favor of the
best man" Naturally, this let the
Senatorial candidate out-at least in
his own estimation.
A we'll known Republican, who
knows more about the election law
than all the attorneys in the State
to hear him tell it himself-was dis
putting the other day, about how to
mark ticket, and described how it
should be done. Il always scratch my
ticket that way" said he, and it's
the only correct way-there's only one
way to do it," Did you scratch your
ticket that way at the last election?"
softly enquired a by-stander. why,
yes" was the answer. Where did
you voter" At precinct No. -,
- District II thought So"
said the quiet man; we threw that
ticket out; it was the worst | ever
saw" The man who knew it all look
ed a little dazed for a moment, and
then he faltered: 'I-have-voted-
t-way-for-the- past seven -
elections" And you have never real
ly voted yet, what a pity" was the
crushing reply from the quiet man.
It is reported here upon what ap-
pears to be good authority, that the
Republicans have outlined a nice lit
tie scheme to count out the two Demo-
Gratis elected to the House Of Delegates
in the Randolph-Tucker district. AS
is well known, there was n county seat
fight in Randolph county, and Elkins
won over Beverly. At the same cleo
ton the Democrats won for the Legisc-
lature. Coming, it is supposed, from
Senator Elkins, the movement has
been started to throw out enough cleo
ton precincts in Randolph county to
allow the county seat to remain at
Beverly for another two years and IN
doing this, such selections have been
made as will defeat the two Democrats
ELECT and give their defeated Repubii-
can competitors a majority. In other
words. the town of Flikns will give up
the county seat, which it won at the
hands of a majority of the voters, to
unseat two Democrats, who were law
fully and regularly elected. Nice lit
tie scheme, that.
