THE CAMPAIGN OPENED
In Sistersyille Last Evening With
An Enthusiastic Meeting-Several
Excellent Addresses Delivered.


Special to the Register.
SISTERSVIILE, w. Va, September
1S.-This evening in the Opera House
the campaign was opened here with a
very enthusiastic meeting. There were
300 or 400 people present, which filled
the house. The audience was COM
posed, mainly of Democrats, but there
was fair sprinkling of Republicans
through it. The audience paid unus-
ually close attention to the speaking
and were very enthusiastic. The
speakers of the evening were Mat.
Sweeney, of Parkersburg, and Sep.
Hall, OF New Martinsville. These
gentlemen delivered excellent addresses
which were received enthusiastically
by the audience. l.. M. Stevens, ex-
member of the House of Delegates, was
chairman of the meeting.
During the course of the evening Joe
Gardner, Of this city, presented to the
club an excellent likeness of w. ].
Bryan in water colors, painted by him
self. The presentation speech was
made by Chairman Stevens.
AT the conclusion of the meeting the
marching club, which was organized
recently, met for instructions and drill.

MR.. CRIsSWELL EXPLAINS
His support of w. VI. kincaid for
Congress.


Congress.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-In consequence of enquiries
and several letters, | feel that it is my
duty to explain matters relative to the
candidacy of Mr.. w. NJ Kincaid for
Congress. | only do this on account
of the fact that several papers have
connected my name with his supposed
candidacy.
Allow me to state that Mr.. Kincaid
was not an active candidate before the
Sistersville convention, nor was he a
candidate before the conference at the
Hotel Windsor that selected a success
sor to Mr.. Jackson.
Through suggestions of friends in the
Sistersville convention, | approached
Mr.. Kincaid and he informed me that
he would not stand as candidate. 1
felt from a personal canvas that he
might secure the nomination and with
out his personal consent his friends
placed his name before the conven
ton. 1911
At the conference at the Windsor
Hotel l had addressed a note to the
secretary, Mr.. Wilson, suggesting his
name for the consideration of the con-
ference and giving my reasons there
for.
While the conference was in session
l received a note from Mr. Kincaid,
saying that under no consideration
would he permit himself TO be con-
sidered as a candidate.
My advocacy of Mr.. Kincaid as a
candidate was based upon a feeling
that he could carry this district-and
/ yet hold that ideal felt that he
could poll the agricultural and labor
vote, which we need, and which would
save us. AT the battle MaTthon,
fought over two thousand years ago,
where the few Greeks met the COM
bined hosts Of Persia, there was one
voice among the Greeks that cried,
Give us Miltiades for our leader
this voice was incessant and CALI
machus, the war lord, decided that he
should Leaf. the Greeks. The most mar
velous battle of the world was fought
and won by Miltiades. I felt and still
feel that the Miltiades of this district
is Vim. NJ Kincaid
l may be in error, but there is no
more faithful adherent 10 Democratic
principles than myself and no more
ardent supporter of our present candi-
d.te.
But make these explanations as a
matter Of duty to Mr.. Kincaid.

THE OHIO IS NEARLY DRY.
The Marks Show Eight Inches and
Falling.

The river continues to fall both at
this port and above. The marks last
night at midnight showed eight inches.
The entire river is lower now than
it has been for some years past, and
traffic is almost at a standstill At
Pittsburg the river has established a
new low water record, which is about
two inches lower than the old record.
The smaller streams above are nearly
all dry, and with the winds that are
now blowing, evaporation is very great
and the prospects of rise are very
remote.
The Telephone, from Marietta, is
due this morning, but it is doubtful
if she can make this port.
Out in the State the long-continued
drouth has dried up nearly all the
mountain streams and this causes a
great amount of inconvenience. The
farmers, sometimes, have to drive
their stock several miles to the larger
streams to procure water.

Royal bedsteads, couches, sofas, d.

places of dignified repose and brought
forth in the glare of speculative public
scrutiny. The couch wherein some
royal form at one time lay in luxuriant
repose will soon be carted far from

IS A co
Honolulu Will Have a
Crematory.
Stock Company Formed by Leading
Citizens Last Night But Details
Are Not Settled Yet.

The meeting last night at the Young
Mems Christian Association to discuss
the projected new crematore was at
tended by considerable number of
the most intelligent and progressive
men in Honolulu. Among those pres
ent were: Mr.. w. X. Castle. who occu-
pied the chair; Mr.. J. A. Gilman, who
served as secretary pro tenn. and
Messrs. G. p. Castle, F. J. Lowrey,
George Carter, c. NJ. Cooke, w. w.
Hall, J. b. Anterior, III. II. Williams,
]. z. Cooke, George w. Smith, J. IL.
Fisher, w. c. Weldon and ]. II. Soper.
The question as to the advisability
of building a crematory here was not
taken up at all, because that was con-
sidered a foregone conclusion. The
main discussion was about location,
methods, cost, and organization; also
as 10 how acceptable the enterprise
would prove.
Three plans were suggested and dis
cusSed. One of these was that of a
crematory in some favorable location
in town, possibly the Oahu cemetery.
Another contemplated a cheaper ere
matory on the beach, perhaps near the
foot of Sheridan street. The third plan
was to purchase a large tract Of land
outside of town, and make a grave yard
of it and have a crematory on it too.
This has not yet been fully decided.
A list was started of those who were
willing to take stock in the company.
1t is desired that not more than hye
L. 1.
in order to make the movement a more
popular one. a committee consisting
of George W. Smith, chairman, G.. p.
Castle and j. II. Fisher, was appointed
to go on with the subscriptions. Per-
sons willing to subscribe for from one
to five shares are requested to- send
their names to G.. p. Castle. The arti-
cles of incorporation, which were ap-
| proved at the meeting SO far as they
can be approved until the stockholders
come together for their first meeting,
provide for a capital of $4,000, divided
into 200 shares at the par value of 800
each. In short the thing is a go.
1t was suggested after the meeting
that one of the most potent arguments
in favor of cremation has seldom, If
ever, been brought forward, and GER
tainly not in connection with the pres
ent discussion. This is, that it obviates
the danger of premature burial, the
idea of which is a continual terror to
hundreds of people. 1t is also a real
danger. as statistics seem to prove.
Only about one per cent OF the bodies
buried are ever disinterred, but of that
number the percentage is much larger
of those which show that the persons
came to life after having been placed
in the ground.

A RIPE OLD AGE.
A Native Centenarian Joins the
Great Majority.

Great Majority.
After over a hundred years of life,
Hilinaka, a native woman, passed
away yesterday at the residence Of II.
j. Nolte in Kapiolani Park. The old
lady was the great-grand aunt of the
late Mrs. Nolte and the exact age is
unknown. A long time ago she her
self lost track of the years passing
swiftly over her head.
That Hilinaka was past the century
mark when she died is a well-known
fact, however. She saw the begin
ming of the nineteenth century and
just before the commencement of the
twentieth round of a hundred yeay :
she leaves this life.
Hilinaka well remembered King Ka-
mehameha l., and in her ripe old age
used often TO relate incidents which
occurred before the grandparents of
her listeners were born. She lived
with the Nolte family for the last thir-
~ years of her life.
This afternoon at o'clock the fu-
neral will be held from the Nolte res
idence.
