An Explanation

We fully expected To file all our
obligations with the county court
early last week, but owing To p
delay III getting the original plans
aud drawings of the court house
INTO our possession, we deeply re-
gret that we were LOT able 10 DO so.
We tiually located the drawings III
Columbia, 5. c., and, owing to
their late arrival and the time
necessary for the contractors. j.
w Taylor IL Co.. to look over the
papers and court house, we were
forced, much against our will, to
defer filing our papers until
Wednesday. We hope, however,
that there will be time enough for
all to ascertain the truth as to
their genuineuess. Investigate
for yourselves. Don't let The
anti-removalists deceive you into
believing they are not Ms good as
gold. The WAYNE Citizen and
others, have, ss you know, dore
nothing but lie and deceive SINCE
this question came before the peo-
pie, and of course, they may be
expected TO keep IT up to the fin
lsh.' We have tried to say moth
ing which we could not prove, and
now IN filing our papers, we have
fulfilled our every pIomise. Be-
lleve the men who have dealt tar.
iy, honestly and honorably with
you.

ED. ADVANCE:
The Wayne News has heretofore. we
think, endeavured to state fairly what
its editor has had to say on the court
house question; but in its last issue
in mentioning the fact ofthe filing OF
the subscription list with the county
clerk, says, In sums ranging from five
dollars 70 two thousand dollars, and
aggregdting seventeen thousand and
seventy dollars" This is, i'm part,
true, bat We think misleading. AEON
densed statement OF the subscriptions
shows As follows:
Ceredo advance. [volume] (Ceredo, W. Va.) 1885-1939, 1906-02-07
seventy-fonr snhscrintIons.
Total. $1,000

1t will be seen from the above that
out of total of Sl7,O7O subscribed, only
TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY DOLLARS
ARE SUBSCRIBED IN SUMS LESS THAN
so 90; and only THREE SUBSCRIPTION
of the amount of $500 each in the en-
tire $1,000. Newspaper readers, that
rely upon their papers for information,
are entitled TO have it so stated that they
can know the exact truth in the matter
This we think they could not determine
from the general statement of the News
from $500 to $1,000.
Does the voter think for moment
that there would be as many delinquents
out OF these seventy people, as there
would if like sum was to be collected
from the seven or eight thousand tax
payers Of our county;

 BOWMAN REPLIES TO STILES

cussed and the society gives out the fol- lowing statement:
 Concordia Beneficial society, as now in corporated is social and benevolent or ganization. Last spring it was decided that the society should amend it's con- stitution, as to entitle the members and their families to aid in case of sick ness, death or other misfortune. To car ry this into effect, it became necessary to amend the charter. and Judge Stiles was requested to draw up the legal pa pers. As this matter was not of busi- ness but of a purely charitable character the meeting to act upon it was held on a Sunday, and Judge Stiles, at our request, appeared before the meeting and sub mitted the proposed amendment Judge Stiles came with another gentleman ito whom we extended the Inequalities of our club rooms.
 We deny most emphatically that our club house is used for gambling or for any other improper purposes. The mem bers, with their wives and children.N are in the habit of visiting the club rooms for social purposes on Sunday afternoon. Quite frequently the pastor of one of our evangelical German churches is present as our guest. We desire to say that the statement made by Captain Bowman re- garding the alleged actions of Judge Stiles upon the occasion of his visit to our club are untrue and based on erroneous infor- nation We deprecate that one who was our guest at the same time should have given an incorrect version of what took place on the Sunday afternoon when Judge Stiles visited us for the purpose stated.

c. P Reddow,s Statement.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 My name has been used on more than one occasion by Judge Stiles in your paper, in connection with a controversy between himself and Mir. P. G. Bowman, and that the public may know my con- nection with the incident, wish to say: Judge Stiles and myself, a short while before the August 27 primary, attended the funeral of MT. Jerry Fountain at Elm wood cemetery. Judge Stiles, while there, told me he had been invited to attend moons, and asked me if I would like to noon, and asked me if l would like to accompany him.
 We discussed the question of making a talk to the society. I told the Judge I would be glad to go with him.
 When the funeral was over, Judge Stiles said he thought 1t was then too late to go that Sunday, as the meeting would probably be adjourned, and we agreed to go to the next meeting
 In the meantime, I read up on German history, and prepared myself to make talk. At that time I was a candidate for state senator.
 On Sunday afternoon, about two weeks before the primary, by prearrangement, we met In front of my house, and started for the meeting. He led the way to place located on the Southside, and when we got there the door was closed. He hliOcheO 'On pile uOUT several lilliSo bSAOAS S we were admitted. When we were, we were taken into a large room or hall with row of round tables on each side, and in the rear was a counter behind which, beer, whisky and other drinks were dis played.
 Around a number of the tables men were engaged in playing cards, and con tinued to. play the entire time we re- mained s(about 20 mlnutes)
 Just before we left, Judge Stiles walked up to the counter, ordered drinks, and the bartender called out, Treats on Judge Stiles" The men at the tables playing cards, did not come forward to the bar, but their drinks (beer), were taken, to the tables at which they were sitting the others, not playing cards, went up to the bar.
 Judge Stiles paid the bill, and we then left and returned home together. ; There were no German families, nor ladies present, the entire crowd being men, Nor was MT. Frank P. O Brien pres- ent on that occasion. Respectfully

The Southside Baptist Church Adopts
 Resolutions.

At a meeting of the board of deacons of the Southside Baptist church, held on the 4th day of November, 1906, the fol- lowing resolutions were adopted: ''In view of recent assaults upon the Christian character and integrity of Judge James F. Stiles which have been widely published, and because of our long asso- citation with him as a member of this board, we feel that it is an act of justice to- him, as well as due to the public at large that we give some expression to our high regard for him and our confi- dence in his integrity. therefore, Be 1t resolved, That our long acquaint- ance and close association with James r. Stiles warrants us in bearing testi- mony to the purity of his life, which has always been without spot or blemish of any kind. He enjoys now as heretofore the fullest measure of our confidence and we assure him of our undiminished es- teem and affection.
 Resolved further, That the church clerk be instructed to furnish a copy of these resolutions to Judge Stiles and that he cause them to be published in each of the daily newspapers.
 The foregoing action was taken with out the knowledge of Judge Stiles. (Signed) w. c. WARD,

Louisville, November 1.-The wind up of the campaign in Kentucky finds the dem ocratic primary for governor, state of fees and United States senator which will be held on Tuesday, completely over- shadowing the congressional election.
 All the candidates gathered in Louisville today and the situation which already has undergone three distinct changes during the past three months, bids fair to take another kaleidosccpic whirl The stock of Governor 9eckham which was rising yes- terday, began to drop a little on reports that his opponent for the senatorship, Senator McCreary, had formed an elevcnth-hour combination with S. w.
