S.THE CITY cLERksHIP.

Il is% the settled policy Of the West
iVirginian not to take sides in con,
tests among It's friends In local pol.
!tics. It;never wavers when once the
people have spoken, and choice has
beon made. It Is always regular and
stands by the Republican organiza:
tion, as long as there Is such a
thing. Sometimes 1T does not get
Its choice in nominations. and occa..
slonally It is urged to forsake the
party's choice, but It's party organi.
zation IS paramount to personal am.
bitlon. Thus far We have RETAINED
from saying anything in connection
with the city clerkship, leaving the
Geld entirely open forHnll aspIrants.
at this time. however, It looks as
though the present clerk, Rev. j I, En-
gle, would be nominated by acclama.
ton. a few names have been men.

agd no name Is likely to be presented
in opposition TO him. He has been a.
faithful and efficient clerk, and de-.
serves reelection. II he gets the
nomination on the Republican ticket,
The Democrats will conclude that this
