A Gard from J. G. Hurst.

Some recent writers in the public
press have objected to my candidacy
for the State Senate on the grounds
that have already been elected to many
offices. This cannot be denied, but in
the contests have made for these Of
fees have never sought newspaper con-
troversy to advance my own cause or
hinder that of my opponent. But am
forced by some perversions OF fact made
in letter TO a Berkeley county paper
and in the Farmers AdV0cate of Charles
town, w. Va, May II, 1900, and also the
Shepherdstown REGISTER Of May 18th,
by writer signing himself Justice, y
to give the real facts. This writer
states, as he claims from authentic rec
ords, that the amendment introduced
by me in the last Legislature, granting
a thousand dollars to Storer College at
Harper's Ferry, W. Va, received my
vote, and he infers therefrom that | fav-
or mixed schools AS representative of
this county was requested by a con-
stituent to present this amendment and
l felt in duty bound to do it. but | did
not urge its adoption and the House
Journal of February %, 1899, page 4,
will show that did not vote for it, and
when the general appropriation bill en-
bodying this amendment came up for
passage, House Journal of February %,
1899, page ?, will show that | voted
against it,
As to the mixed schools, desire to
say without qualification that am now
and always have been opposed to them.
Nothing in my record in or out of the
Legislature can justly be construed
otherwise.
make this statement merely on &C
count of the unfair inference above
quoted, not because | believe it neces-
sary to define my position on this point
to the Democrats Of this district.

The Supreme Court of the United
States decided on Monday that it has
no jurisdiction in the contest over the
governOrship Of Kentucky and that
the action Of the Legislature Of that
State must be the final arbiter in such
matters. This disposes of the claims
ofTaylor, the Republican Governor, -
and he appears to be quite willing to
quit. Governor Beckham, who sue
ceeded the assassinated Governor
Goebel, will now be in full and undis-
puted possession Of the gubernatorial
chair.

Philippines that may be kept up to
our disadvantage for years and years.

These are sweet words, but how much
main and suffering they used TO mean. It's
Sifferent now. Since Mothers Friend has
become known expectant mothers have
been spared much OF the anguish of child
birth. Mothers Friend is liniment to be
applied externally. It Is rubbed thoroughly
into the muscles of the abdomen. It gives
elasticity and strength, and when the final
great strain comes they respond quickly and
easily without pain. Mothers Friend IS
never taken internally. Internal remedies
at this time do more harm than good. II

THE fight between R. W. Morrow
and B. c. Washington for the Legis-
lature is hot one. Mr.. Washington
is one of the most affable gentlemen
and popular men in Jefferson county,
and has a large circle of friends who
will support him. Mr.. Morrow, too,
has many supporters. He Is popular
in Shepherdstown, where he once
lived and where he went to school
with many of our present citizens.
Our people are also very kindly dis
posed to him because Of his interest in
Shepherd College. The appropria-
tons which he helped to get through
the Legislature at the last session were
quite liberal, and resulted in great
benefit to the school and to our town,
and we know if he is elected the in
stitution will have in him warm
friend and an able advocate.
