IF having a voice in the direc-
ton of its affairs, might prop
erly marshal themselves under
the name of the United States
party. That title would indicate
the universally of the move

The United States party will
not resemble, in the faintest
degree, any of the political side
shows which have appeared
from time to time in this country |
1t will differ from them all in It's
splendid liberality and in the
practical character of its doc
trines. 1t will offer q crafty

which have been formed in op-
position to the great leading
parties, IN the fact that it is not
in the hands of mischievous ag-
itators seeking to crowd them
selves to the front and ride into

Aiming alone at the glorifica-

stand on. Republicans, demo
Gratis, populists, prohibitionist,
all who are interested in the
march of liberty and i'll the ex-
pansion of the best government
the world has ever seen, can
join the new party and labor
together for the principles which
it upholds.
1t would probably be more
accurate to say that republi-
cans, democrats, populists aud
prohibitionists have already
identified themselves with the
United States party. They

dispatch received from w. A.
Duncan. chairman of the Cher
okee delegation. now in Wash
ington, announces that the at
torney general has refused to
grant the Cherokees a writ of
of habeas corpus in the Martin
case. This is a final blow to
the Indian courts. The Chero-
KEGS had arranged to allow tn
general court to take up the Mar
tin case, and then apply for q
writ of habeas corpus, on the
plea that the recent law abol'
ishing the Cherokee courts was
invalid and unconstitutional
but the United States denied
the writ and finally put aside
the attempts of the Indians t
avoid trial IN federal courts.

The Clarksburg telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1874-1926, 1898-07-01

The new building territory
that was opened up by the cree
tion of the great Elk Creek
bridge is what harrisburg has
needed for many years. Itcomes.
however, at time when the city
is on the upward move, and it
will be but a few months until
the vacant land in the vicinity OF
the new B. & .. depot will be a
thriving business and residence
community. Judge Golf has ar
ranged for an extension of the
city system of water works, and
already the electric wires are
conveying radiant illumination
to a spot that a year ago was
wrapped in darkness and desola-
ton.
The Clarksburg telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1874-1926, 1898-07-01

THE establishment of free de.
livery of mail for the residents OF
Clarksburg is now an assured
fact. The numbering of the
houses has been arranged for by
the City Council and every resi-
dent will soon be able to know
what his exact number will be
ard can have it placed above his
door in any design that suits his
fancy. There will be iron receiv-
ing boxes at convenient places
all over the city from which the
carriers will collect the mail at
regular intervals. The carriers
will make two deliveries each
day except in the business part
of the city where three deliveries
daily may be made. Registered
letters will be delivered by the
carriers and receipted for, which
will be great convenience. They
will also carry with them a sup
ply of stamps, postal cards, &C..
for the convenience of the peo-
ple.l The carriers will deliver
the mail at each residence and 1t
would be well to have suitable
mail box in which can be deposit
ed all the mail for such resi-
dence. Persons having letters
to mail can give them to the car
riers. The one cent drop letter
can not be used at the Clarks.
burg Post Office after free deliv-
cry is in operation. The rate on
all letters will then be TWO
CENTS. The equipment and new
fixtures for the Post Office were
arranged for by the postmaster
who was in Washington the first
of this week. The TELEGRAM is
informed that ox.holders should
continue their boxes during the
next quarter as 1t will take some
time to get the system in com
plete operation.
The Clarksburg telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1874-1926, 1898-07-01

THE TELEGRAM predicts that
West Virginia will again be rep
resented in the National Con-
gress by a united Republican
delegation. The Republican con-
yention in the Third District
named Hon. Vim. S. Edwards by
reclamation. In the Second the
delegates, so far selected, make it
certain that Dayton will be nomi-
mated, as he has fully nine-tenths
of the delegates selected up to
this time. Dovener's friends
figure that he Low has l3l of the
delegates so far selected, with
five counties, including Harrison,
to hear from. Dovener only
needs 126 to nominate. In the
Fourth District it is said that
Miller will go in with little oppo-
sition, since Judge Freer has de-
cided not to push his claims.
This, in brief, is summary OF
the congressional situation.
