Entire New Board Of Aldermen

In. City Democratic Primary cleo tion took place on Tues5ias according to announcement.
 For several weeks city politics have been warming up and to say that things were red hot Monday and Tuesday expresses il mildly Not since the distressing day> If May. lssa la, there been so much in- terest manifested in an election in this city. Knots of men could be seen at various places upon the public square and along Washington street discussing and i'll some instances cuSSiHg candidates and combinations.
 Every candidate had his friends. who did what they could in his inter- est. Combinations were formed on aldermen, and trading is said - have been brisk. even affecting the race for mayor, in the interest of the can didates for marshal.
 The race for marshal between H. NJ. Wilder, the present incumbent. and Q. F. Wolf, who formerly held the office for several years. developed the most absorbing interest. and both sides were claiming election up to the time the vote was announced. which gave Wilder the nomination by q majority of r.. the other candidates having withdrawn prior To the cleo tion.
 IL was the first time an election had been held since the city had been raised to the second class and can didates for aldermen were chosen by the yot srS nf their respective wards. This was something Of novelty To the voters, and many could not understand why they should not be permitted 10 vote foraldermen in all the wards.
 The defeated candidates and their friends took their medicine good- nataredly after the first shock was over and many have expressed the sentiment that the fght k over.

anybody especially Democrats who have the

1t would take pages enumerate the things this machine
has done not for the interest of the party State but for their
selfends usurp State Offices and keep machine

Think of J. w. c. X Y q. Beckham going to the United

There is not the slightest warrant
or justification for the statement
that a newspaper in Clarksburg
cxacts tribute from any one. Nor
is there any reason 10 believe that
their revenues are derived from
other than legitimate sources, and
yet the clique sheet, otherwise known
as the Hyper's alley paper, is be-
ginning to show strong desire to do
so. How it was possible for a news
paper to conceive that idea is mex
plicable, except on the ground that
actual necessity forced the editors
brain to get busy studying up some
way to meet the emergency, staring
him 50 painfully in the face. 1t is
another example of the work Of des-
peration Of brain not particularly
