G. Z. D0RR has never been mixed
up in any star route scandals, nor
mining steals, nor other meandering
assaults on the national treasury,
but he is nevertheless getting about
as much free advertising as Senator
Elkins. A Monroe paper recently
published the following extract from
a private letter written by gentle
man in Washington;
Congressman G. P. Dorr was ar
rested at the Washington barracks
for disorderly conducted the night
before Congress met. He was as
drunk as could be. You people ought
to hang him when he comes back
Whereupon the Fayette Journal a
staunch republican paper, comes to
the defense of its representative in
the following terse and vigorous man
ner:
That's right; rub it in, Congratu-
late us on our misfortunes, if you
will! Pour vinegar on our sore
places, and watch US writhe. But
let US save to our congressman one
iota of credit. We do not wish that
he should disgrace the party that
honored irisa, without limit. He
was not 'as drunk as could be. )
That's impossible. He may have
been as drunk as somebody else might
have been, but to his capacity place
no superlative degree. Does the
armament own an apex? Is there a
foundation to ''the bottomless pit?n

The Republican partys position
to-day resembles the three leading
characteristics of the jack rabbit.
Its scared at every noise, and can
turn quicker and jump further and
faster from one position to another,
thar any other animal, but its most
distinguishing trait, whether turn
ing or jumping, is to show the white
feather In exhibiting its tail.

The Republican Congress closes

bill earring $175,0OO for the pay

against publishing list of pension

Death Of 0. \. Long.

The death Of o. S. Long was a
startling announcement ta7s '2-go
circle of acquaintance throughout
the State. He had been somewhat
prominent figure in public affairs
from his early manhood His posi-
ton as editor of the Wheeling Regis
ter brought him In contact aud gave
him an extended acquaintance with
the leading men and the pubic af-
fairs of the state. Going from tina t
position to the clerkship Of the SUI
rreme court of appeals, which posi-
ton he has occupied continuously
since, he las been brought into init
mate relations with the legal fratern-
ity, and thus possessed a personal
acquaintance with almost all the
active lawyers of the state. Indeed
his death seems like direct bereave-
ment of the bar, so closely associated
has his life and work been with that
of the profession for many years.
Mr.. Long was man of fine intel
lectual culture, with educated liter
airy taste, with wide reading and
familiarity with the best authors,
and possessed Of an aesthetic and a
keen appreciation of the best in lit
erature and art. He was, in fact, an
accomplished gentleman, of courtly
manners, fine personal presence, and
entertaining social qualities.
In his position as clerk of the
court of appeals he was above criti-
cism, conducting his Office with a
smoothness and accuracy highly sat-
isfactory to the court and il, patrons.
Mr.. Long has many years been a
prominent figure in the Masonic
fraternity, and recognized author
ity in the rituals OF that order His
last absence from home was on a
visit to one of the meet Tags VI the
Grand Lodge at Wheeling He will
be missed by the members Of that
organization, as well as by macy APP
preciative friends throughout the
state who received the news of his
death with sincere regret.-Wcst Vir-

Guyandotte, Milton and several 9th

are putting up hard fight against
the long established prohibition
policy. Barboursville is also in
volved in the contest although the
town has refused to submit the

the council to do SO will probably
be secured. In the latter town John
