A REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER.
GREETINGS!

After ten years, we again SHE our
castor into the ring, and enter the
sacred precints of the sanctum sane
forum. We are glad to be one of the
craft again, hoping to renew many
old acquaintance, and to make new
ones just as pleasant and beneficial.
Whilst believing that the best good
to the most people lies in the suprema-
cy OF the Republican party, and de-
termined to exert every effort to pro-
mulgate and impress upon the public
the grand doctrines of that party, we
shall at the same time endeavor to be
sincere, courteous and brotherly in
our intercourse with those who be-
-1ieve IN the Democracy, for in the
ranks of the Democratic party are
some of the ablest statesmen and
most sincere patriots of the Nation.
We believe they are absolutely wrong
in the doctrines they advocated, but
we would care but little indeed, to
live in a country, where everybody
thought alike.
Here in old Berkeley we shall know
no clique or faction, reserving the
right to write fairly and Justly of all,
and to criticise wherever necessary
The main hope which we entertain il
to rally all under the old flag, and tc
place that flag on the ramparts of the
common foe. In this attempt, W,
ask the cordial aid and counsel o
every Republican in the county. Re
member thatin unity there is strength
in discord dissolution. Let us neglec
not the present opportunity to organ

statesman, truly said:

saddled, which stops at every man.

How to Look Good.

Good looks are really more than skin
deep. depending entirely on healthy
condition of all the vital organs. Ii the
liver is inactive, you have a bilious
look. if your stomach is disordered,
you have dyspeptic look; if your kid
neys are affected, you have a pinched
look. Secure good health, and you
will surely have good looks. Electric

1t is reported that Admiral Dewey's
health is greatly impaired by reason
of the unusual strain which he has
undergone. Why not give the grand
hero few months of rest and recu-
peration. A greater or nobler Ameri-
can citizen does not live. He is sus-
tanned in the hearts of his country
men. And yet there are men calling
themselves patriots, who tried to tie
up the hands of the Mckinley Adj
ministration, so that our soldiers and
sailors would have even more to SUI
fer and endure. What a shame

Mr.. A. B. Smith, the retiring edi-
tor of the Herald, carries with him the
best wishes of the new management,
and of host of friends in this COM
munity. He was a tireless. earnest
worker, an able writer, and knew how
to be cautious, and yet forcible. AS
a Republican, he never shirked duty
or feared foe. We sincerely regret
his departure and hope that into his
future life may come full measure
of happiness and success.

THE ROAD QUESTION.

Perhaps no question of local affairs
is more discussed by the farmer, or
more important to his personal well
fare than that OF good roads. For
years the County Court has been APP.
propriating money to improve the
roads of the county. and yet they are,
in many respects. very rough, and in
places, almost impossible. Taxes
stay at the top notch, and yet the
farmer seems to get no RELIEF in this
matter. He must come to town. his
family must visit it, and his products
must find market. Complaint is
made by persons in the eastern por.
tion of Opequon district that the roads
to Martinsburg are so inferior to those
to Shepherdstown, that our farmers
drive to the latter town to purchase
their supplies, etc. If this be true,
it is serious matter to our merchants
and business interests, for money is
thereby taken away from them. The
complaint is earnest, and deserving
of every attention. These roads
should be put in a proper condition.
How?
By the County Court submitting
the adoption of the alternate system
of road law to the people. Roads
should be let out, by sections, to the
lowest bidder, iwho should be required
to give bond to keep said sections
in a safe and fair condition, and to
remove all obstacles from them, and
to keep them open. The saving to
the county in this one particular,
would run into thousands of dollars.
Our farmers could then travel in per-
feet safety and with profit. IF the
roads in Jefferson county are better
than those in Berkeley, it is largely
due to the alternate system prevailing
there. 1t is also the system in Min.
eral county, where the roads are in
splendid condition. The time for
patching, patching, patching, has
passed. Let US give our farmers some
show and encouragement.
Keep the question agitated. Good
roads, safe travel and money saved.

Gear Reed, Speaker OF the Hou SO
OF Representatives, with characteristic
generosity, refused to let the BATTLE
SCARED General Joe Wheeler, occupy
S minutes, which was reduced to 3
minutes time on the floor of the House,
during the closing hours Of the last
Congress. This was an insult not only
to General Wheeler, but grateful
people throughout the United States,
who recognize the invaluable service
he rendered at the most critical period
OF the recent war. Out with the inso-
lent Reed Berkeley Democrat.
The objection to allowing General
Wheeler to speak came from Demo
cratic Congressman and was properly
sustained by Speaker Reed, as Wheel
er's right to seat in Congress was
then contested. Joseph Bailey, the
Democratic leader IN Congress has
bitterly opposed allowing the patriotic
old. war CARED veteran to retain his
seat in Congress, whilst most of the
Republicans seemed to favor him. IL
any insult was offered General Wheeler
it came from his Democratic free trade
friends. 1t is too bad that Reed should
be- so fearfully harrassed by the Demo-
Gratis. Poor fellow, no doubt he has
not enjoyed night of sound rest
since the above was written. 1t is
simply awful how small our great men
become after having been thus attack
ed. For the General to have been al
lowed to speak would have required the
unanimous consent of the House. But,
as Democrat objected. Reed was
simply compelled to sustain the objec-
ton. Josh Billings once said sit is
