We observe with some surprise that
Mr.. ALT. Davis, assistant postmaster at
the Wheeling postofice, is engaged in
tie work of making campaign addresses
in behalf of the present administration.
This course does not appear to be in
harmony with certain statutes of the
Congress of the United States. 1t Is
also noted that Hon. Joseph Gains,
United States District Attorney, is still
hol.-ng on to his lucrative Office while
posing as a Republican candidate for
Congress. Why don't Mr.. Gains let go
of the public tit, and enter upon the
Congressional race free and unem-
barrassed, while allowing some other
good man to attend to the duties of his
once? we understand Mr.. Gains was
not present at the last term of court
in Wheeling, owing to the pressure OF
political engagements. Why draw a
salary and not give a quid pro quo in
work?
