A Brutal Statement.

The Clarksburg News, a Democrat
ic newspaper, utters the following
statement:
Gan old Union soldier, living in
Lewis county, who had one of his
hind legs removed during the late
war, has succeeded in getting his
pension raised from 500 to SIS a
month. This is the highest price
ever paid for a ham This worthy
wagtail couldn't make this much a
month if he had as many legs as a
centepede."
We have scarcely ever read a more
brutal and disgusting utterance.
That any American citizen could make
such a statement OF IAN old Union
soldier" who lost his leg in defense
of his country, is amazing, Mail
Tribune.
Then to help along the party rep
resented by the News, certain "old
Union soldiers" because they were
not successful in their pursuit of an
office, lend their influence to the DEM
ocratic candidate for Congress in this
District, knowing full we'll that if
elected he will DO nothing whatever
for cold Union soldiers" because he
does not love them.

FACTS AND FIGURES.

The Statesman has been trying TO
prove Encouragement and waste OF
county funds by the County Court.
In its last issue we find an alleged
comparison of the expenditures for
boarding prisoners during the years
1867 and 1896 7, but cannot find
any such figures in the record.
To be fair and honest to show be-
yond dispute OF cavil that there has
been no Encouragement we have
taken the pains to go through the
records and ascertain the expeudi-
lures for Court. house, Jail and
Gains. house" for two periods, one
six years, from 1884 to 1889, inclu.
siye, when the County Court was
Democratic and the other, eight years,
from 1890 to 1897, inclusive, during
which period majority Of the Court
has been Republican and we find that
the average yearly expenditures for
the first period for the three purposes
was S3733If; for the second period
the average was S394o 70, difference
of s2I7.5o in favot Of the former.
This shows that the expenditure was
less when a majority of the court was
Democratic than since, but there is
another consideration. The vote OF
this county for President in 1894 was
36r3; in 1888, AGA; in 1899, 44I8, and
In 1906, 1000 That is, there we're
Ios2 more voters in 1896 than in 1884,
vet the expenditures for the three
items named was increased but S2I7.
Another view: The expenditure for
those purposes was 81. Oh per voter Tor
the first period and but SO cents (tak.
ing the vote of 1922 for the second
period, saving OF IS cents for each
voter by Republican management.
But that is not all: During the
past eight years great improvements
have been made in the Court -house.
The courtroom has been remodeled,
the clerks offices cleaned up, the
sheriff office enlarged, improvements
have been made about the Jail and
alms-house and the several properties
are in good condition, while the Dem
ccrats made few, if any, improve
ments.
The Republican record is, as usual,
one of which every citizen should be
proud. Never, in the history of any
community has there been better OF
more painstaking conduct of affairs.
The Statesman should blush with
shame at its brazen attempt to smirch
the character of officials who have
been true to every trust Will it re-
pair the wrong it has doneF We
shall see.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1898-10-22
DEATHBED REPENTANCE.

The Statesman, as usual before an
election, when it is clearly indicated
that Republican victory is assured,
raises the cry Of improper use Of mon
ey. That money is sometimes i'm
properly used in this county is true.
In our opinion 1--WE do not know, nor
ever handled dollar of boodle) both
parties are guilty. That Republicans
are more guilty than Democrats we
are not willing to admit. We are
told of the vigorous efforts that are
made to purchase the votes of colored
men. Whether true or false we can
not tell
IF Republicans purchase votes, they
must be the votes of white Democrats.
1t is a sad reflection on the whites to
have this charge laid at their door.
There are no others for Republicans
to buy. We agree with the States
man that it is wrong, and will go as
far as the Statesman dare 60 to pun
ish all guilty parties.
But is not the virtue of the States
man open to suspicion? Is it not a
fact that the money the Democrats
have been placing where it would
do the most good, has failed to ma
terialize the number of votes expect
ed? How about the effort made two
years ago to capture the colored vote
at Douglas Grove? What about the
"slip" scheme entered into two years
ago to aid Junior" Brown and indi-
viduals on the local ticket 1--WE have
heretofore given their names and can
repeat them if necessary, which re-
suited so disastrously? The editor OF
the Statesman was secretary of the
Democratic committee and should
know.
The charge of corruption in con-
nection with the recent munlclpaI
election was made but was not sub
stantiated. That some men were
drunk on election day is true, but not
more than can be seen on any other
public day-not as many as on last
Saturday.
To prove that the Statesman's re-
pentance is genuine we submit a
proposition: No one will call in ques-
ton the honesty or integrity of Mr..
c. M. Lamar, Chairman of the Re-
publican Executive Committee. He
is opposed to the improper use OF
money. Let the Democratic chair
man, who is also an honorable man,
agree with Mr.. Lamar that no money
will be improperly used; that he will
join Mr.. Lamar in prosecuting all
offenders, buyers or sellers Of votes,
and our word for it the trouble will

While Democrats are going about
imploring colored men to vote the
Democratic ticket they should tell
them about how they tried to disfran-
chise those voters in the Second ward
last spring. That is an interesting
subject. They should also tell how
they are abusing Governor Atkinson,
down in Jefferson county because he
pardoned poor Bob Mcdowell. These
things are of interest to colored vot-
ers. BY all means tell them.

any such idea, or that he said "there

BLIND LEADERS S.

Is
itorial entitled Campaign Tactics"
quotes remark by shrewd Repub-
lican leader Of earlier times, that his
party could not be defeated if it was
either mad or scared " The Post
says;
The Republican leaders must have
recalled the mad or scared maxim
OF the old campaigner, and they are
evidently acting up to it, and even
beyond it, for they are trying to get
the Republican masses both mad
aud scared. They point to the
wild, reckless assaults on the admin
istration for faults or follies in the
conduct of the war and expect there
by to excite righteous indignation.
They prove that gross calumnies have
been invented and circulated broad
cast They call attention to shame
full falsehoods that reflect on the char
acter of the administration. They
cite mean, contemplate insinuations
and filings at the President that have
disgraced some of the opposition pa
pers. In brief. they do that which is
we'll calculated to stir up the anger of
the Republican voters and which
would, under other than existing con.
ditions, be sure to produce great ef-
fects.
but theRepublican managers have
been heavily handicapped by the stu
pidity of good many Republican
papers. When the war ended those
papers, instead of dwelling on the
unparalleled success that our govern
ment had achieved instead of point
ing to a record OF glory unequaled in
any chapter of history, permitted
themselves to walk right into the
trap that had been set for their clumsy
feet. 1t was not the superb record
of our government. not its splendid
success in naval and land engage
ments, not the speedy end which un-
exampled histories had brought, not
the acquisition of Spanish domain,
not the expulsion of Spain from the
Western world, not this wonderful
story, but a mass of calumny. with
here and there a grain of truth mixed
in its mud. that those Republican
organs began to dish up to their
readers. They got their stock from
opposition papers, and they handed
it about as if proud of being dupes.
"But for this consummate asininity
it would be easy for Mr.. Hanna, Mr..
Babcock, and their associates to stir
up the brethren to high degree of
justiiable anger. AS it is. the work
will be difficult. But while it may
not be practicable to make the voters
mad, it is quite possible that Mr..

getting them scared.
