Jesse r. Randolph. Of Salem, one Of

think il viii be that Close and trys
to get them 10 that way.
Republicans, be on your guard. Mr..
Randolphs desire to make d showing
means 9 great deal more, and his cleo
tion would mean vote for John T..

the United State Senate. It would
mean stilimore. The next Legislature

which depends very materially the
political complexion OF West Virginia
for the coming ten years. These are
importantfeatures Of this campaign to
the republican party's future. Re-
spect for ones neighbor should not
lead republicans 10 overlook these
grave questions. However much Mr..
Randolph may be esteemed, every re-
publican should be loyal to his party
nominees. Vote tosenda republican

deprive the colored people Of West
Virginia Of their citizenship and drive
them from the state, ia the event they

THE BOER WAR.

British losses to January 10, in killed,
wounded and captured, were 1887.
The English war office declines offers
OF militia, saying no more militia will be
sent abroad.
The British war office announces that
next week will be landed 72 guns, 37IO
men and 2210 horses. This is the
largest consignment of artillery ever
sent abroad.
General Buller's wagon train is 10
miles long and embraces 400 wagons
and 5000 animals. The Tugela river
drifts (fOrds) are narrow and but one
wagon can cross at time.
A Cape Town correspondent of the
London Times says he believes the
sympathy of every Dutchman in South
Africa is with the Beers and that a
general rising is still quite possible.
A Lorenzo Marquee correspondent
says: Numerous foreigners arrive here
in French vessels. They enter in a sta
tion outside the town and leave at a
station before the Transvaal is reached.
Then they walk across the border and
reioin the train. Hundreds have passed
through in that way since the outbreak
of the war.
The Standards vivid account OF the
assault upon Ladysmth shows that the
garrison was surprised and that several
times the situation was critical. Out of
a detachment of 30 Gordon Highanders
who surrendered every man was wound
ed. says the correspondent. Curiously
enough this is the first mention of the
capture OF Highlanders. The Boer re-
pulse at Ladysmith was the heaviest
counter stroke of the war.

TALKED ON TRANsVAaL
Senator Hale Made Most Vigor-
GUS Speech

Washington, Jan ia speech, SEN
satlonal IN it's interest and International
IN It's choice, was delivered in the senate
today by Senator Hale of Maine. The
occasion OF the utteranCe was the simple
question whether resolution introduced
by Senator Allen of Nebraska, calling
for information as to the recognition by
this country of diplomatic representa-
tives OF the Transvaal republic should be
directed to the president or secretary of
state.
Senator Hale made the question the
occasion for an impassiOned speech, in
which he declared that nine-tenths of the
American people sympathzed with the
Beers in their gallant struggle for
liberty against one of the greatest DOW
ers in the world. He declared that the
war which Great Britain is waging is the
most fatal blow at human liberty that
has been struck in the century. He de-
clared that the American people we're
not in sympathy with Great Britain in
the South African war to stamp out the
liberty OF the people," and when Mr..
BalfOur in the house of commons made
such statement ''he should be met with
some disclaimer from this side OF the At
lantic." He declared that 1.-The English
people themselves were not in favor of
this war, which had been brought on by
a sharp cabinet minister engaged with
gold speculatOrs."
Senator Hale spoke with unusual
force, decisiveness and earnest elouuence,
and claimed the close attention of every
auditor.
The resolution which, previous to Sen
atOr Hale's speech, had caused a sharp
colloquy between Senators Allen and
SpOOner, was passed finally as amended.
