Trying to Fool the colored Men.

A meeting for the "beneft" of the
colored men of Shepherdstown was
held in the old school house the other
night, when addresses on the political
issues were made by one or two col
ored men and white man who holds
an office under the State administra-
ton. It is said that the ofice-holder
assured the colored men that they
would be placed in slavery again if
the Democrats carried the next cleo
tion-an assertion that shows his opin-
ion of the colored men in this place to
be very low. There's not negro in
town who is so ignorant as to believe
such rot, and it is an insult to them to
ask them to listen to it. They have
sense enough to know that during the
twenty-five years the Democrats con-
trolled this State not one law harmful
to the colored men was put into effect,
but on the contrary they had every
consideration shown them, their schools
being kept up and all their needs
given attention. They know also that
this country had Democratic Presi-
dent for eight years, when no law re-
lating to slavery was ever thought of
and when President Cleveland did
more for colored men than Mr.. Nc
Kinley has done.
There are some other things that
the colored men of this county ought
to know-for instance that the Demo
Gratis are their friends all the year
round, while these men who are now
so anxious about them have no use for
them except at election times. To
whom do the eolored men 60 for favors
to Democrats or to the men who
stuff them with foolish yarns just be-
fore election?
The colored voters will act wisely
if they vote with their real friends in
stead of yielding to the untruthful rep
OF would-be politicians
who care nothing for them.

Norfolk & western Railway Affairs.

The annual meeting Of the stock
| holders of the Norfolk & Western
Railway was held at Roanoke last
Thursday, with the largest represen-
tation of stock in the history of the
company. The Pennsylvania Rail-
road, which has had four of the eleven
directors, got another member, Will
liam q. Barnes being elected in place
OF J. Kennedy Todd, giving the Penn
sy FIVE of the eleven directors. The
board of directors is now composed of
Henry Fink, F. J. Kimball, Walter
II. Taylor, Joseph l. Doran, George
Coppell, Victor Morriwetz, Samuel
Rea, John P. Green, James McCrea,
William 81. Barnes and S. NJ. Provost,
the last five representing the Pennsyl-
vania Road. The directors reelected
Henry Fink president and L. E. John
son general manager.
On Friday last the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company placed its order
with the Steel Rail Trust for 10000
tons of steel rails, and it is signifi-
cant fact that at the same time the
Norfolk g. Western bought $4,000
tons on the same terms, $26 ton.
There is little doubt that this deal
was engineered by the Pennsy for the
N. & w. 1t is said that the rails will
be used on this end of the Shenandoah
Valley division of the N. G. W., as the
steel is much lighter here than on the
Southern end, the rails being but 81
pounds to the yard.
There can now be no doubt that
the Pennsylvania company means to
take hold of the Norfolk g. Western,
or a part of it. 1t is believed that it
desires possession of the line from Ha-
gerstown to Bristol via Roanoke, thus
giving it direct route to Chattanoo-
ga, which is regarded as the railroad
center of the South. To this end the
Shenandoah Valley division is being
put in frst-class order. New rails
will be laid where necessary and the
roadbed generally improved. A num-
Der of the trestles between this place
and Shenandoah are now being re-
moved and filled in with solid en-
bankments and stone culverts, one
firm having contract for six jobs Of
this sort in Page county. 1t is be-
lieved that the Pennsylvania is at the
bottom of these improvements, and
that it is having the road put in good
order before it takes possession Of 1t
outright.

The Death Record.

Mr.. Braxton Davenport, youngest
son of Col. Henry B. Davenport, OF

land, Ohio, where he began the prac-

vanced in his profession and became

large circle of friends and relatives
in Jefferson county. He was % years

and mother, three brothers and one
sister survive him. His body was

II Happened in a Drug Store.

Zone day last winter lady came to
my drug store and asked for brand
of cough medicine that did not have
in stock" says Mr.. G. R. Grandin, the
popular druggist Of Ontario, N. Y.
"She was disappointed and wanted to
know what cough preparation | could
recommend. 1 said to her that l
could freely recommend Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy and that she could
take bottle of the remedy and after
giving it a fair trial if she did not find
it worth the money to bring back the
bottle and | would refund the price
paid. In the course Of day or two
the lady came back in company with a
friend in need of a cough medicine and
advised her to buy bottle Of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. consider
that very good recommendation for
the remedy" The remedy owes its
great popularity and extensive sale in
large measure to the personal rec
concentrations Of people who have
been cured by its use. 1t is for sale
by Remnants Pharmacy.

Guthrie, Ok, Sept lit is brought out
by the Manchester Journal that home
steaders who can not sign their names
must make their mark. The Journal says:
THE final proof Of AIonzo Potter of
Woods county, whose notice was printed
in this paper, went through in good
shape except that Mr.. Potter does not
write his name, and T. J. Hawley, at
Byron the commissioner before whom
proof was made, permitted Henry Sher
man to sign Mr.. Potter's name and did
not require Mr.. Potter to make his mark
which is absolutely necessary in the
signing Of all legal documents where the
party can not write his name
