The following letter has been
given out for publication and
should be of potent interest to all
voters:
R. j. A. Foreman, Esq, Parkers-
burg, W. Va:
My Dear Mr.. Foreman The
political situation in this State
from a Republican standpoint is
indeed lamentable, and l sincere,
ly regret that it is so. have in
a humble way from my youth up
periodically, earnestly and con-
scientiously labored for the well
fare Of my country, believing in
the doctrines and great measures
Of republicanism taught by the il,
lustrious Lincoln and other great
statesmen, such as Blaine, Gar
fie.l, Harrison, Mckinley, Gov.
Foreman. Gov. Stephenson, Gen.
Golf, a. w. Campbell and others
worthy of special mention, whose
craftsmanship and republicanism
is unquestioned and unquestiOna-
BILE. The present unfavOrable con.
dition Of the Republican party in
this State has been brought about
by incompetency, and in many in
stances by dishonesty and unfair
methods, by men whose judgment
has been warped by selfish ambi-
ton. We are now asked to act
hypocritically and favor methods
and measures that we do not APP
prove, and which are nauseating
in the highest degree. measures
that are not just. wise, eXpedient
or Republican. The seeds of in
Justice, discord and corruption
have been sown and it is reasona-
BILE to suppose the harvest will
be disaster. | wish that it were
otherwise. | wish many other Re-
pubIicans would be exceedingly
glad if the Republican party in
this State could be prevented
from running rashly to destruc-
ton.
Calumny and threats will not
move me. | shall continue loyal
to my convictions of right, and
strive earnestly to perpetuate re-
publicanism in it's original purity,
uninfuenced by passion and I'M
awed by fear. | shall never con-
sent or admit, that in order to
be a Republican a man must ia
vor and yield obedience to the
laws recently enacted by the West
Virginia Legislature. The Objec-
tons that | have to the laws al
luded to are too numerous to dis
cuss in this letter and shall not
it.
| shall be glad to hear from
you at any time. With kindcst
regards, | am sincerely yours.
