feed. So they seek elsewhere for what
Is to be laid on the altar. They have
the idea that, by going out Of their own
party and putting up men of their own
who viii be defeated that that win make
a big breach in the Republican party,
from which they expect their own party
to derive an advantage. They are not
counting on the principles of the Demo
cratic party appealing to the people and
commanding their support, but are fgur-
ing that the thing to do is to get up as
much dissension in the Republican party
are possible. They are not particular
about the principles of their party pre-
vailing. What they want Is to get into
office, and, if they thought there was a
possible show of their winning out this
time, they would have nominated rock
ribbed Democratic ticket. LaLOring I'M
der the belief and sizing the situation up
correctly as to the city election, they
think the best thing to do is to make
a pretension of eliminating politics from
municipal government. The Telegram
says it is a mere pretension, for, if it
is well to eliminate Democratic politics
from municipal government. they should
also entertain the belief that it is best
to eliminate it from county, state and
national government, and every one
knows they would never consent 10 that.
and, if that was their belief, they would
have done so in the last county campaign.
But they did not and they have taken
the pains not to give any one outside Of
the regulars Of their party any position
of remuneration that was within their
control. Loyal Democrats, those who be.
lieve in the prevalence of the principles
of their party for the good Of the people.
win not consent TO this abandonment and
population Of the principles they have
held dear all their lives, and they will
not be found working and supporting a
movement that started by turning down
loyal and faithful workers in their party
for men who have never been openly
identified with the party. They believe
in Democracy and will continue to be.
lieve in it, notwithstanding the fact that
there are those who throw principles
aside and disregard party welfare, even
party organization, for personal benefit.
In short, the so-called Democratic con.
yention should open the eyes of all the
people, not only in the Republican party
but the Democratic party as well. 1t
should especially open the eyes of the
citizens of clarksburg, and though the
candidates nominated are men of very
good standing in the community, the in
Thence behind them and the spirit that
prompted their nomination should not
be overlooked.

One ward was so much opposed to the
nomination of a regular Democrat for
mayor that they would not even let MIN
be delegate to the convention, as
shown in the kilograms report Of the
primary meeting in that ward, and after
they got to the convention, they did not
even think to put his name before the
convention, Really, none Of the Demo
cratic candidates, with possibly one or
two exceptions, realized that it was a
Democratic convention, or at least they
could not believe their sense, that such
a convention had been held, after they
came out Of it without even moments
consideration of their candidacy.

THE SCHEME EXPOSED.

The abandonment of the principles of
the Democratic party in this city, as
shown by the convention Saturday night,
is not sacrifice for the benefit of the
city as some might believe. If Demo-
Gratis are honest in their political belief.
they would assert with all the earnest
ness of their souls that the domination
OF that party and the prevalence of its
principles are beneficial TO the people,
but, having thrown their party and prin-
ciples aside, no true Democrat is bound
by the action of the convention. TO
the contrary it is now his privilege to
vote as he pleases. Those acquainted
with the facts and all who study the
movement even for an instant readily
see the object of that movement. 1t is
not in the interest of better municipal
government, as they term it, but for the
specific purpose of not only disrupting the
Republican party in the city and county
but to wipe it out of existence. The
Democratic schemers assisted by few
betrayers of the Republican party under,
take this task. The latter pretend to
belong to the Republican party, but they
long since entered the Democratic camp
and have arduously labored for the sue.
cess of the Democratic party, possibly
with the hope OF getting into that party
some time.
The Democratic schemers who are
porties 10 the COLLISION, care nothing Tor
those who have volunteered to be their
tools and when the time comes they will
repudiate them without hesitation. But
what these same Democratic schemcrs
are after at this particular junctuc, is
10 taffy their allies and make the Repub
lioan party in general believe that they
have made overtures, but the sensible
man sees clearly that the only thing |
extended is on paper. Those shrewd |
Democratic fellows, as they term them
selves, see nothing but overwhelming de-
feat for their party in the coming city
election and they do not want their own

The regular Democrats, some who have
worked for the party for years, even all
their lives and were never known. to
vote on any other ticket, are open in
their revolt against the way things were
done at the Democratic convention Sat
urday night and ineensed at the shabby
treatment they received. Those who
were candidates for nomination and were
not even mentioned in the convention do
not hesitate to declare themselves on
the outrageous betrayal OF their party
by the few who fixed the slate up at
the last moment.

When old.line Democrats gather on the
street corners and denounce the action of

not propose to submit 10 such an outrage

claims on the party.
