COL. BEURY FLOPS
To Democrats and Throws Re-
pu6Hcons INTO Confusion.

Charleston. w. Va, Oct. 12.-
Col. Jos. L. beury, of Fayette county
one of the Republican candidates for
elector -at-large, has resigned and will
vote the Democratic State ticket.
MIR. Beury is Colonel on Governor
Atkinson's staff and closely identi-
fed with the Governor socially.
About fifteen months ago, Beury' s
son married the Governors daught
er. Colonel Beury is one of the big
coal operators in this state and en-
ploys hundreds of men. His coal
works are located in Fayette county.
Shortly after the Republican State
convention it was rumored that Beury
was dissatisfied with the State tick ct
and his friends declare that he dis
likes ''ringism" in politics and that
he cannot swallow the State nomi-
nees, the Congressional nominees,
nor the county ticket. Col. Beury's
resignation has thrown a damper on
the Republican campaign and the
Democratic leaders claim it as a
forerunner of victory.

The Outlook IN Virginia.
(Lynchburg News.

ALyhcuDurB NeWS.)
Al the formation that reaches us
encourages the hope that Virginia
will be represented in the next Con-
gress by a solidly Democratic dele
cation. There never was any doubt
about the result of the election in a
majority of the dis riots. Some ap.
prehension was felt about the Ninth
and perhaps by some, about the
Tenth, but all the reports from those
two districts are to the effect that
the Democratic candidates, Rhea and
Flood, will win by handsome major
tiles. Nobody doubts that Swanson
will be elected over his Republican
or Independent opponent by a ma
jorlty running up into the thous-
ands. Otey's election was never in
doubt. 1t is altogether proper that
Virginia, Democrats State, should
be represented In Congress BIT del
@gation fairly rejecting the senti-
ments of her people. There is good
reason to hope that the Democrats
will have tie majority in the next
House and if so it will not be DOS
sib!e for any Republican contestant
from Virginia to Gust his successful
opponent from the seat to which he
may be elected. 1t is a notorious
fact that when Republicans hold the
House by narrow margin they do
not scruple to increase their majority
by unseating Democratic member
and replacing him with Republican
contestant, But when the Demo
Gratis are in the majority that game
of injustice cannot be played to the
detriment of this old Commonwealth.
The Democrats of Virginia should
leave nothing to chance. The next
House may be dominated by Repub-
licans, though that does not seem
probable at present. Therefore the
voters in each district should turn
ont in full force and elect their re.
spective candidates by majorities so
large that even Republican parti
san House cannot have the face to
urn down representative of the
people who is the manifest choice of
LIS constituents.

Judge RheG'S Charges.

Concerning the charges which
Judge Rhea makes that his mail has
been tempered with by Post Masters
in the Ninth District, we have this
to say: The charges are serious, and
it seems unreasonable that man of
the Judges good sense and Judge
ment should make them unless he
had good reasons for doing so. If
not they should have not been made,
of course, and every honest man will
admit that the postmasters who will,
for any reason, interfere with the
transmission of lawful matter through
the mails should be exposed and
punished, let his politics be what
they may. In the absence of any
positive information as to the truth
and fidelity of the charges we think
comment and judgement should be
reserved until further lie hit is thrown
on the question.
As to sending inspectors to look
up the matter we are sure that no
honest postmaster will object to, but
rather welcome, inspection atanytime.
Our contemporary, the Tazewell Re
publican, in commenting on the
charges, wishes that "whlle the post
Office inspectors are in our district
they could be given the authority to
investigate the conduct of Rhea and
his followers in the election of 1898.
and bring to view the crimes by
which the returns were secured for
the man now pretending to be shock
ed" &c. We call the attention of
the Republican to the tact, which it
seems to have overlooked, that the
Elections Committee of Congress did
the investigating last year to the
general satisfaction of the public
generally.

One, and But One.

The United States Congress, in
its last session, committed but one
great wrong. On its escutcheon
there is only a single stain. In its
sky of purple and gold there is
but one dark cloud. On it's i'm
maculate brow there is only one
mark of the degenerate. In its
grand chorus of martial music
there is but single discordant
note. From its fountains of de.
lights and nectarine glories there
was but single bitter draught.
In its historic annals there is but
a siugle dark page. There stands
out against the horizon of it's illus
trious day but one shadowy form
of the Cloven Foot. This one
dreadful and irreparable and ir.
xetrievable wrong-was the seating

Take Your Choice.

The political leaders on both ides
are busy batting forth confident
predictions of the result of the No
vember election. AS usual each par
ty sees what it wants to see aud
looks forward to splendid victory.
OF course these guesses must be
token with some degree of allowance
for in each case the opinion Is col
ored by the wishes of the guesser.
Here is what the Republicans say;
Mckinley, 266 electoral votes;
Bryan, 112; doubtful, 60; necessary
for a choice 224
This is the official estimate of the
result of the coming election sent
forth by tbC Republican National
Committee and claimed by it to be
conservative.
"The members of the committee
have been very careful in estimating
the result of the election" said Ma
tional Committeeman Joseph II.
Manley, in discussing this claim:
They have desired to avoid mis-
leading the public in any way.
They have watched the situation
with the utmost care. They have
had every State carefully canvassed
and polled. They know the con
dition thoroughly in every section.
They feel absolutely confident now
as to the result. They know that it
will be impossible to defeat the re-
election of President Mckinley.
They are equally positive that he
will re-reviye a larger number of
electoral votes than he received four
years ago.
Now set over against this the
Democratic prediction:
The editor of the Telegraph, the
leading German paper in Indisnap-
oils, telegraphed to Democratic head
quarters that so per cent of the
GermanAmerican citizens of Indiana
will vote tor BRYAN.
The German-American population
of that State is estimated at $4,000
and if the figures are anything like
correct Mckinley cannot hope to
carry the State. His plurality in
1896 was only $4,000, and ex- Presi-
dent Harrison was then helping to
elect him, whereas this year it is be-
lieved Harrison is secretly working
for the defeat of the Han a ticket.
At Republican headquarters it was
admitted that the German American
vote has gone over almost wholly to
Brsan, aud that there is grave dan.
ger that Mckinley will lose the
Northwest, where the German vote
Is strongest. Wisconsin, Illinois
and Ohio are likely to be found in
he Bryan column on this occount.
The claim made for Broan by the
Democratic National Committee of
326 votes in the electoral college is
based largely upon the detection of
the German-American vote from
Mckinley
1t is evident that somebody is
doomec to grevious disappointment
when the returns come in after the
9th of November. -Lynchburg News

The Devil and the Dinner Pail
u. Y. JournalO


The fall didner pail appeal is an
old dodge In the New Testam ent
We reac that the Son of Man. the
Man of Sorrows Jesus the carpenter
OF Nazareth, was led by the Spirit
into the wilderness to be tempted OF
the devil, and when He had tasted
forty days and forty nights He was
an hungered then the devil came unto
Him and said: elf Thou art the
Son of God, command that these
stones be made bread"
"Ther is your full dinner pail. If
Jesus ould obey the DEVILS orders
He wo aid have His stomach filed,
but e. Master said: 1t is written
that man shall not live by bread
alore.'
WOrkingmen of America, be true
to this lofty and holy ideal of the
Plaster. Speak in unmistaksble
tones to those who would appeal to
to you as to dumb driven cattle and
repeat these inspiring words. Tell
them that your soul and the souls of
your children hunuer for something
that cannot be satisfied with bread;
that you want work, but you want
leisure; you want rest; you want re-
creation; you want citizenship; you
want freedom; you want liberty; you
want equality. These cannot be OBJ
tanned in full dinner pail.
THE DAWN OF A NEW ERA.
The dawn Of the twentieth century
is to witness new politics. Our
forefathers 125 years ago declared
their emancipation from the rule of
greed and gold. and the first step in
this new development is for every
one declare his own emancipation
to stand forth under the clear, blue
dome of the sky and call no man
master, for One is J our master, even
God and any progress to political
peace and social justice without this
step is as impossible as that two and
two shall make FIVE.
"The present crisis is one of the
opportunities for national express
ion of patriotism, and 1 believe that
when votes are counted next Noyem-
Der the patriotism of this nation will
register higher mark than in any
election that has preceded il in our
national history. / believe the peo-
pie of this country are ready for
self-government. Certainly if they
are then every individual soul is
ready to govern itself, for in no 9th
er way can we have sclf-government."

M0KNETT IS our FOR RRYAN.
The Ohio Trust Fighter Speaks
at Columbus.

wv 1FHO00s
Columbus, Ohio, Dec. ia
large audience attended a meeting
tonight at the Columbus, Audito-
rum, and Was addressed by Hon
Frank s. Monnett, former attorney
general of Ohio. Mr.. Monnett's
speech was devoted wholly to trust
and contained the first public dec
laration of his intention to support
Mr.. Bryan. Monnett reviewed the
prosecutions against various trusts
and com binations, and monopolies,
winch he had undertaken while at.
torney general of the State, and
then he said:
owe nominated President from
Ohio who promised the people in
fair phrases that he would enforce
the antitrust laws of the United
States, including the Sherman an.
THRUST act. How has he enforce
it'll Attorney General John Y.
Griggs has under him seventy six
district attorneys scatt cred
throughout the various Stat es of
the union, the duty of eac and
every one of which is to enforce
this antitrust act, and az cording
to his official report of May 20,
1900, TO Congress, out of fifteen
suits instituted under this law,
three have been begun under his
administration.
"This is TIL magnificent record
of the present national administra.
ton.
"The trusts utterly failed in de-
featIng the Sherman antitrust act:
thew were completely routed by the
judiciar6 in the final test In the
Supreme Court, and they have now
begun the dangerous policy of par
alyzing the executive arm by
means that are so palpable that he
who runs may read, and none but
the most skeptical can fail to be
convinced"
In conclusion Mr.. Monnett said:
al believe that Mr.. Mckinley
and John Griggs, his attorney GER
eral, and his executive officers,
have wilfully and purposely and
knowingly paralyZed the executive
arm of the government for the past
four years and prevented the en-
forcement of the common law and
the statute law, both criminallv and
civilly, against these law vIolators.
And the hour has now come-the
only time we will have for the next
four years-as voters to legally
and "onstitutionally smite them for
their hypocrisy and to resent this
violation of official duty.
