The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1904-06-06

Tett. Tile vote tells for itself
and that is sufficient answer. And that
they want Maxwell the vote also GER
tainly shows, from the fact that after
the vote OF the other two candidates,
Kyle and Carpenter, is added and COM
bined, Maxwell still has more than both
put together. Then what is the use for
the Herald to try p ny the Republican
party Of Union district does not want
Maxwell and Jarrett Next take Eagle
district, Harmer carried it and the Her
aid thought Eagle was all right and said
so. We find that Harmer got 229 votes
Lynch 200, Maxwell 30, Kyle "A, Carr
penter 20 and Jarrett 100. Maxwell in
a cour cornered fight came within nine
votes OF receiving as many a. Harmer,
and, yet the Herald refuses TO support
Maxwell on the plea that he is not want.
ed nor his caudiduey approved by the
people. What do you think Of that rot,
gentlemen OF Eagle district? Then in
this district take notice of the vote JAR
rett received. Was he their choice or
nott The figures say he is. lie carried
the district by big majority over Kyle
notwithstanding the fact that. that Is
properly speaking Kyle's home district.
You mood not tell ns that Eagle district
was not and is not in favor of Jarrett.
Sardis district was boosted to the skies
by the Herald because 1t gave Harmer
a majority. Now, this district gave
Harmer ls5 votes, Lynch, 227, Maxwell,
$50, Kyle so, Carpenter 20 and Jarrett
ll9. 1t viii be noticed that Maxwell in
four cornered fight got more votes in
the district than Harmer, and yet the
Herald tries to say that district was
not for him. Rotl Notice Jarrett's
vote. too. He received just one vote
les, than the other two combined, and
yet the Herald wants the people to be.
lieve that he was not the choice of the
country people. Go to Elk-another
that tickled the Herald because Harmer
carried it. Hammer got 50 votes, Lynch
50, Maxwell, II, Kyle, %, Carpenter, %
and Jarrett, 80, In other words Elk
gave Maxwell l2 votes more than Har.
mer, Notwithstanding the fact that
Maxwell was in four cornered contest,
and still the Herald wants the people
10 believe that it was the elements
which elected our city ticket that nom
mated Maxwell. Also take Jarretts
vote in that district that tiekled the
Herald so much. He received more votes
than either one of the other two and
carried the district Then, how il IL
figured out that he is not the choice
Of the Republicans of Elk districts And
Since the Republicans Of that district
showed that they favored his nomination
by giving him majority, how can the
Herald be a Republican paper 10 the
Republicans of Elk district, by not sup
porting their choice? Now FOLLOW us to
Simpson district. Harmer got 81 votes
Lynch 1913, Maxwell III, Kyle 4S, Car
penter 4s, Jarrett 90. Notice that
Simpson gave Maxwell more votes in
four cornered fight than Harmer
Notice again that Jarrett got more votes
than Harmer and more than Kyle and
Carpenter combined 1t is mere fool
ishness to ray Simpson district Repnb-
licans did not favor Maxwell and Jarrett
and the Herald does not represent the
sentiments of the majority of the Re-
publicans of that district, when it re-.
fuses TO support Maxwell and Jarrett
for the legislature.
1t viii be noticed that Lynch
cot practically the fun vote and
that includes those OF most Of
the men who voted for Ilarmer.
How does tie Herald represent even
these men who voted for both Harmer
and Lynch, by refusing to support
Lynch! Then this leads to the con.
elusion that, il Harmer had been the
choice that paper would not have sup.
ported him. The reason is that it is
being run in the interests OF Democracy.
Having shown plainly by figures just
now Maxwell and Jarrett stand in the
districts the Herald said we're free
from faint or corruption, it is proven
clearly that that paper take. a false
attitude toward Maxwell and Jarrett
and that it is not willing to abide by
even the verdict of the districts that It
praised and in which it declared there
was an honest election.
FIGURES ARE AGAINST HERALD.
