PATRIOTISM AND PROTECTION
Turned 10 the Wall. Ante-Funeral
Notice OF the Late James T. DALEY.
Candidate for Prosecuting Attorney.

The following proclamation by
James t. Daily or his managers,
was posted at Tunnelton and other
places, among miners on the day
of the Republican Primary Election
in this county, and is the most out
rsgeous, roorback and screed of
anarchy that we have ever seen at
tempted in this county, and it is
enough to kill off any man forever
from any political or public prefer
ment. 1t was the last desperate
card played in losing game and
was a regular boomerang. Here is
the circular as published from an
original type written copy in our
Office.

Dawson ought to feel proud of
the way the Banner county stood
by him, at the Primary Election last
Saturday, as he secured ten times as
many votes as Teter and Dorr both
put together. Some OF the Teter
papers are having hard time try
ing to explain 1t and the Wheeling
Telegraph gets off the worst rot we
ever read on the subject. In
leeding editorial it declares that:
Dawson and S,urgiss went out
into the rural regions of Preston
and Monongalia and practically
stuffed those farmers full of tax
reform talk so ;hat the Savior Him
self would not be able to bulge
them In their belief that the taxes
are gong to be paid by some one
else.
We arc not so sure of Monon-
gala county, but we do know that
neither Dawson or Sturgiss has
been in Preston county for six
months or wrote line on the sub
ject of tax reform TO anyone in
this county, that has been made
public.

The Grafton Sentinel reads the
riot act to the Republicans of Pres
ton county for kicking on Dayton
and declares they will all come up
to the rack and take there medi-
cine straight as heretofore. In fact
the Sentinel, edited by G A. Bold
en- of Terra Alta, intimates that
they don't know anything else ex-
cept to vote the straight Republic
can ticket and the report is at large
generally in the State that the Re-
publicans of this county have formed
such habit for voting the straight
ticket that it is impossible to break
themselves of it, no difference what
happens.

The Democrats in the conven-
ton at Charleston recently, all had
their fighting clothes on and it
would do you good to have been
there. From the speeches made
and the talk and general enthusiasm
it seemed that every man was fully
imbued with the idea that every
thing was coming our way, and that
this is Democratic year and we are
bound to win. We only wish that
all the Democrats from this county
could have been there.

There Is girl at Morgantown.
who is so bashful that she cannot
see sleeping car, without blush
ing and she faints at the sight of
undressed lumber. But she is
hardly as foolish as an old maid at
Fairmont, who covers the face of
the clock in her bedroom every
night before undressing for bed and
even has lingerie on the legs of
her bedstead. However there is a
sweet young thing at Grafton, who
will not look at tree in the winter
time for fear she viii see a naked
limb, and she will not express an
opinion fearing to unbosom her
mind. But the Clarksburg Girl.
who IS so modest that she prefers
falshood to the naked truth, rather
takes the bakeshop.

The race for district officers in
kingwood district, was very warm.
There were seven candidates for
Justice, two at Tunnelton and FIVE
at Kingwood. ]. Frank Craig won
in canter at the Tunnelton end
and Squire McGinnis was badly
laid out. The Republicans had no
faith in the old mans claims of
conversion, as It is hard to teach
an old dog new tricks. Tohn
Dnvall was named for Constable
by big majority, same as John S.
White at this end of the district.
For Justice here it was neck and
neck with Henry Murdoch, {. w.
Wolfe and Charley Bishop. Wolfe
beat Bishop by one vote and Muir
dock led Wolfe by ten votes.
