CALAMITY HowLERS
RS
COMPOUNDED.

The testimony of Major-Generai
Toe Wheeler before the commission in
yestigating the alleged abuses in the
ARMY was a complete reiutation OF
the claims of yellow journals and
other calamity howlers that the sol
djers were mistreated and starved.
Nothing could be stronger than his
statements. All who know him know
that he is a brusque, plain. spoken
man. one who loves the truth ana
who dares tell the truth though the
heavens lall.
Though not trained soldier, Gen.
Wheeler is a natural warrior and has
had real, actual experience in two
wars. He knows as does few others
what war is, the hardships whicn
soldiers must endure, and the secret OF
his success as a fighter is the fact that
he will not ask soldier to go when
he. himself will not go, neither
would he permit a soldier to suffer
hardships that he would not endure.
It is equally true that no influence
could induce him to refrain from ex-
posing abuses did abuses exist.
There is no more independent man
than he. The people of his Congress
sional District have faith in him and
he we'll knows they expect him TO
state facts. He is not a seeker alter
notoriety. Had he pandered after
applause. had he been demagogue,
he might have substantiated the col
umnies that have been so industrious
ly circulated, but being a man IN ev-
cry sense of the term, knowing the
right, he dares maintain the right.
If the investigation we're to now
cease. Gen. Wheeler's testimony
should for all time settle the dis
graceful humiliating controversy
which has so shameiully dimmed the
luster of the glorious achievements OF
the army at Santiago. But the in
vestigation will not cease. There
will be more testimony. Every doubt
will be removed. Every complaint
will be traced to its source. Every
defeat, if any exists, will be brought
to light, aud as the Herald has SO
persistently insisted the good name
and fair fame of the Army will shine
brighter and brighter.

THE cAnPAIdN OPENED.

Wednesday evening was the time
fixed by Berkeley Republicans for
opening the campaign and it was
done to the Queens taste. Promptly
at s o'clock Chairman Lamar called
the meeting to order and announced
that Hon. Geo f. Evans would pre-
side. Mr.. Evans was in a happy
frame of mind. He felt that he was
among friends and his brief address
was most felicitous.
Hon. Charles T. Caldwell, of Par
kersburg, was introduced and for an
hour, an hour and half, or possibly
two hours, we do not know how long
there was a constant stream of argu.
ment, logic, wit, humor and satire
that completely demolished Time and
Democracy. Keen and incisive were
his thrusts at McGraw and the pc.
culiar character of the campaign
which the Popocrats are making.
Lofty and patriotic were his referen-
ces to the Administration, the Army
and the Navy. Cogent and convinc-
ing were the reasons assigned why
Aston G. Dayton must be returned
to Congress. Touching was the trib-
ute paid our brave soldiers and sail
ors. Scathing were the anathemos
which he hurled at the miserable
wretches who, filled with venom,
would have the world believe the Gov
eminent so base as to starve our sol
diers. Hearty and earnest were the
frequent bursts of applause.
There were numerous cries of opt
ger, "Pitzer, and in response U. S.
G. Pitzer, Esq, favored the audience
with brief address, which was heart
lily applauded.
The Mechanics Band supplied mu-
sic of a good quality-soul-stirring
and inspiring. Several ladies were
present. One of the most pleasant
features was the good order. There
was very little passing in and out and
all in all the meeting was a splendid
success in every particular.

A MASS CONVENTION.

Chairman Lamar has called a mass
convention to nominate a candidate
for the House of Delegates to fill the
vacancy caused by the declination OF
Mr.. L. c. Gerling. On taking this
action Mr.. Lamar has done we'll 1t
is always safe thing to trust the peo-
pie, and in the emergency which is
presented to the Republicans of Berk-
eley county, they may be depended
upon to do that which is right.
The position is one of vital impor-
lance. The Legislature enacts laws
for the entire State and only wise
laws should be framed. The very
best material should be selected.
Members of the Legislature should be
men of affairs. They should not be
chosen because they are good fell
lows" but for the reason that they
are qualified to perform the duties
incumbent upon them. One OF the
chief reasons, why West Virginia,
and other states as well, have Sc
many crude laws is because incompe'
tent men have been attempting to dc
that about which they know nothing
AS rule the Herald does not boom
anyone tor Office prior to the conven-
ton, but in the present instance we
shall deviate from our cause and take
the liberty of suggesting that the
proper thing, in our opinion, for the
convention to do is to nominate such
a man as we have described, about
whose election there cannot be a
shadow of doubt-U. S. G. PITzER.
We believe Mr.. Pitzer will accept
and we know that the good people of
Berkeley county will elect him. He
will give us intelligent and faithful
service and laws that will be beneh-
cial to the people, laws that courts
can construe and in addition he will
himself be benefited by the expert
ence.
The Herald has no wish or desire to
dictate to the convention, but if the
wise thing is done Grant Pitzer will
be the unanimous choice of the con-
vention.

Senatorial and District Delegate Con-
ventions.

There was large attendance at the
District Delegate and Senatorial con-
ventions last Saturday. While the
proceedings at times were quite live
ly and while some acid was injected
into the discussions, everything final
ly passed off pleasantly aud there was
and is astrong determination to elect
the nominees.
For Senator there was an earnest
contest between the friends of Messrs.
Hunter and Peters, but on a ballot
Hunter had IS votes to ID for Peters.
Berkeley and Jefferson were practical
ly solid for Hunter and Morgan was
for Peters.
For House of Delegates T. w. B.
Duckwall, of Morgan, was the choice
of all as it was conceded that Morgan
is honestly entitled to a representa-
tive in the Legislature i'll political &C
cord with a majority of her people.
For the other delegate there were sew
eral names presented-J. c. Tabler,
DIR. Hartgrove and J. ]. Singleton, all
of Jefferson-but all except Mr.. Sin.
gleton's were withdrawn and he was
declared the nominee by reclamation.
Messrs. Hunter and Singleton are
classed as National Democrats and
their candidacy would have been in
dorsed had not the law required NOM
nations. The nominees are all good
men and will be elected il the Nation
al Democrats stand firm.

rR. GERLING DECLINES.

The determination of Mr.. L. c.
Gerling to withdraw from the contest
for the House of Delegates is a source
of sincere regret by his numerous
friends, the more especially when the
cause is the precarious condition OF
his health. The nomination was IN
solicited on his part. Today he does
not know the names of the parties
who, through the columns of the
Herald, advocated his nomination.
That he would have been elected and
hat he would have been valuable
member of the Legislature were both
absolutely certain, and it was only
the tear that the canvass would over
tax his strength that impelled him to
withdraw. The action Of the conven-
ton in rendering him the nomina-
ton without the slightest solicita-
ton on his part was high tribute tc
his worth, and we know we voice the
sentiments of the great mass of the
Republicans of Berkeley county when
we state that no man stands higher
among business men or in the coun
ellis Of the party than Mr.. Gerling
We are also sure they will join in ex
pressing the hope that he will soor
fully recover his old-time vigor anc
that in the future the people may
have am opportunity to express then
appreciation of his merits.

CHARLES NJ. LAMAR, ESQ,
Chairman Of the Republican Execu-

Va.
Dear Sir: regret very much in
deed that my health is now in such a
precarious condition as to compel me
totenderto you and to the County Ex-

and resignation as your candidate for
the Legislature from this county
That I appreciate my nomination,
coming as it did without solicitation
on my part, need not be affirmed and
| would love to continue the contest,
believing that our party will win a
substantial victory in November.
The voters of old Berkeley are intelli
gent and will not be swayed or in
fluenced by false cries of (ring or
clique). / regret my inability to con-
tinue my canvass, but my physician
believes it would endanger my life
and my family desire me to withdraw,
therefore, do SO.
Sincerely hoping my resignation
may be accepted, humbly and sim
cerely thank my friends for past po-
litical favors and know the commit
tees splendid effort to win will elect
my successor and the entire ticket.
Very respectfully,
l.. c. GERLING.
