How long will the same peesish,
whining, stale, old appellations be
inflicted upon a mearied and dis
gustedpublic? We allude to the lit
tie gang that still babbles about
fraudulent voting, corrupt prac-
tees and ring candidates. They
used the same epithets against SEN
ator Thorn in 1904. Prosecuting
Attorney Morris was assailed in the
same way. In Judge Lynch's case
they thought their newspaper hadn't
sufficient circulation to make their
abuse effective, SO they sent q man
out over the county to deal out cam
paign venom from house to house.
1t was all in vain! The verdict Of
an honest but enraged public ans

whelmingly tolook after the peoples
interests in the city council.

1t comes in very bad grace for
some people to talk about illegal
votes. No longer ago than the last
state election some of those now ar
rayed against the Republican ticket
openly bought votes for the Demo-
cratic ticket They used money
without stint and purchased votes
without thought Of concealment of
their actions. They stood defantly
at and near the polls and paid for
votes with the long green. They
did more; they used rot-gut whiskey
and every other fire-water to bride
the voters. They would have tried
to bride the election officers, had
they dared. They would have stuff
ed the ballot box, had they seen the
slightest opportunity. And then
for the hypocrtes with their croco-
|dile tears to sob about an imaginary
idea they have that the Republicans
are going to do this year just what
this crowd did last campaign in this
respect. 1t is too thin. No one
that knows them puts bit Of faith
in their alleged distress. But every
one does know he must be on his
guard, or some political scoundrels
will steal the election. 1t is their
old trick to howl Doodle and booze
Just before the election, hoping to
detract the attention of the people
from their plottings to plumber the
polls. However, the people, know
them of old and are not to becaught
mapping. The more the yellow dog
banks, and the louder, the sooner he
is rendered harmless.

FINE CANDIDATES..

While public attention is largely
-oentered on the general ticket, the
Telegram would not Intentionally
overlook the Republican candidates
for council. ~
But before we go farther let us
Gay here that that alleged reform
ticket of Harmer's, which 50 brazen-
~ boasts of its courage, did not have
the bravery to na1re man in the
first ward for council. Is it pos
aible that Harmer and his cohorts
and Democratic clique advisers have
such a low estimate Of one Of the
best wards of the city and its people
as to thus repel them from partici-
pation,in the alleged great and mar
velous and miraculous reform Har-
mer's ticket will not be given the OPP
portunity to bring about? Does
Harmer mean to say the many resi-
dents Of the first ward shall have no
voice in the government? The
course pursued in denying that ward
q place on his councilmanic ticket
emphasizes the belief that he hopes
70 build up a little oligarchy, ex-
clusively his own, and over which
the citizens shall have no right to
survey.
But, coming back to the Repub-
iican candidates for council, the
Telegram very truthfully and with
out fear Of successful contravention,
Claims for them they they are men
well fitted for the office to which the
people will elect them. Some Of
them have been tried and found not
wanting. The others have been sue
eeeeful in their business affairs and
will conduct the business Of the city
just as successfully.
OF the new men Cornell is on two
tickets and Harmer's own little
Ncket bust have thought well Of
him, so well in fact, that they did
not nominate any one to oppose him,
thus implying their approval Of his
candidacy. He has made success
Of his business and Possesses splen-
did business qualifications.
Patton, in the fourth ward, has
been successfully engaged in the
mercantile business a number of
years, and is a shrewd, honorable
young business man. His candidacy
Has the avowed and earnest sup
port Of many of the representative
eitizens Of that ward, among whom
Is Charles NJ. Hart, whose apprecia-
ton of a mans business qualifca-
Sons is fully established and whose
endorsement means a great deal in
That ward.
In the fifth we have George M.
West. He is conscientious, ener-
setic, honest young business man
and conducts a splendid business in
a courteous and obliging manner.
His friends are legion and he is
worthy Of the vote Of every citizen
IN that ward.
Indeed, there is no cause for COM
PLANT against these men, but rea-
aons without number why they
should be and will be elected over

The News made very brilliant
argument against Coffman when it
called him "shyster." That is
only a sample of the kind Of CAM
paign the little clique is making.
Just think about that a moment,
reader! While it illustrates the des-
perate and as well the low-down
methods that are to be used in the
campaign, it also shows the animus
that exists in some places toward
all progress. No one is secure from
the attacks Of an assassin OF
manhood and reputation. You may
have lived here all your life and by
honesty and industry have won the
respect of your fellow men-but
that don't count. You are a
F"shyster." You may have come to
this growing city as a skilled worker
in some of our new industries, such
as the tin-plate mills, but some peo-
|ple will say you are corrupt and
dangerous. The Telegram regrets
that such spirit exists here, but it
lis indeed glad to say that there is
another class here and a much larg-
er one that most cordially welcomes
all who come to help build up our
city and who take that broader view
Of humanity that accords to every
man the right to be classed as an
honest man and a gentleman until
he proves himself otherwise.

If hundreds of illegal votes are
cast on next Tuesday as the Clique.
would have us believe, the excess OF
the total vote over the regular nor
NAL vote would prove it. The
present population of Clarksburg
would indicate voting strength OF
over 1000, but the total vote cast
will be probably much under that
figure.
