One Of the men who are accredited
with writing some of the stuff that
appears in the Herald about reform
made a "trip to a Cain street house
Friday night Of last week. He ask
ed an officer on the way to 90 with
him, and have an evening of sinful
indulgence along with him. but he
refused. II was tipped off to one of
the editors Of this paper and the
next day he asked that Herald man
if he got what he went after. He
replied that he did. Now, this is
the same fellow that published some
letters in the Herald during the CITY
campaign and cut them out before
taking the shoot home. When ask
,cd why ne did 30, he replied. | would
not dare let my sisters read that
stuff. That is but "A sample Of the
few who control the policy Of that
paper, although in that crowd there
may be one or two who do not thus
indulge themselves.

II that coon got clothes and money
and ticket as the News says ne did.
why may not the friends OF certain
member Of the Democratic clique not
have gotten them for him, especially
since the News says that the coon, a.
they call him, accused one OF their lit
tie gang of paying him $500 to vote
in the Fourth ward? Who knows that
they did not find themselves with the
tables turned, and who could blame the
negro since it Is evident that he was
being prosecuted because it was be-
lieved he did not vote the Democratic
ticket as his alleged affidavit says, ac-
cording to contract made with one of
the Democratic politicians. May be it
was the little Democratic court house
ring that got him ont of town, as the
News says. to save their own skins.

The Telegram has the pie.
Of and takes pride in publishing am
another page a may drawn BIZ S. F..
Reed, of this city, showing especially
the advantageous location of Clarks-
burg from the standpoint Of railroad
facilities and its ready access to the
Dig waters. A casual study of this
map shows some OF the many avenues
through which to get the products
Of Clarksburg to market. There is
Plttsburg not very far distant ON
the. north with not only its home
consumption but also its nearness
to Cleveland and the great lake
trade. On the east we find Balti-
more less than 500 miles away. with
Washington between and there the
Atlantic ocean is practically reach
ed, across which are taken our pro-
ducts in large quantities. Drop
down on the map a little and we find
hope Of soon getting direct railroad
route to the seaboard, which win
give additional facilities in that di-
rection and more than likely cause a
greater cheapness in transportation
of our products in that direction.
Then looking southwark, We find
direct line to the capitol of the state
almost completed and practically
trunk line across the state from
north to south is ours. From the
capitol there are facilities for the
purpose of reaching other points far
and near. On the west we have a
trunk Line leading to the Ohio river.
where boat may be had, and to the
great city of the central west. Gin
clnnati, from which radiate some of
the great railway lines of the conn
try, and by which the Ohio river
flows. Again, over the Short Line.
we readily and swiftly reach the
great lakes, again by way of Toledo.
eAll the points named have an inn
portant bearing on our commercial
and industrial and agricultural con-
dltlons. The objective point in par
ticular to the farmer is Baltimore.
and we might add, Philadelphia and
New York on the other side. They
send their cattle there. their sheen.
their hogs, their horses, their surplus
products in general. 1t is also an
important point to merchants. who
get their stocks of goods from that
place and those just east, which have
been mentioned. Pittsbure also
holds a like place with the merchants
and farmers, stock breeders and so
on. These points are also import
ant markets for manufactured goods
and coal and oil.
The great lakes are especially
fine outlet for our mineral products
and manufactured articles. Then
there is the Ohio river, down which
we float our products to the gulf.
On the west we have also Cincinnati
nearby, then st. Louis and Chicago.
Those cities take many of our pro-
ducts, and we obtain from them
things we have not here.
The map is timely as there are
many who do not really fully appre-
ciate our location, and it is a good
thing TO lay before the manufactur-
ers of other cities that they may
learn and understand the induce
ments we have to offer.
