LIGHT ON HETzEL,s Actions.

Some light Is thrown on the attacks
upon Senator Elkfns being made by
John J.. ,Hetzel, of Martinsburg, by the
following statement of the matter fur
nished this paper by one who Is con-
versant with the facts in the case:
at is known that John ]. Hetzel
called on Senator Elkins two or three
times about Nle appointment OF a
postmaster at Martinsburg, whose
name he mentioned ut the time. said
he would assure Senator Elkins the
two delegates from Berkeley county.
and would himself be the Senator's
friend. Senator Elkfns stated in re-
ply that Mr.. Clohan, the present post
master, had filed the Office acceptably
to the administration, which favored
his reappofntment, and that the coun-
ty committee endorsed him. but did
not endorse Mr.. HetZci's friend; there
fore he could not recommend the ap-
pointment as requested. Mr.. Hetzel
thereupon threatened Senator Elktns,
and. said that he would lose the two
delegates from Berkeley county 0lA|e
that time, at the Keyser convention
and at other times. MIR. Hetzei has
been abusing Senator EIkins rounlly.
If Mr.. Hetzel mas any quarrel with
anybody about the appointment of
postmaster, he should take it up with
the county committee and the admin
istration; Senator Elkins has nothing
to do with the matter except to voice
the. wishes of both the county commit
tee and the administration. Every

what confidence any one could have
in an estimate made while going at a

that manner and remarked tnat the
State Board OF Public Works didn't
do it that way, however To this the

innocent prattle which we reproduce
as a sample Of the child language used
