FOR SWISHER
5 Lincoln County Though Some
of Its Citizens Voted
for Scherr.

Lincoln county is solid for the en-
tire Republican ticket according to
a member Of the delegation from that
county to the state convention.
The assertion has been made, also
by one of the other members OF the
delegation that every vote cast at
the rump convention was irregular
in its entirety, and that none OF the
delegates were there. The voting
was done, 1t is said, by Lincoln
county man who had no right to vote
anywhere and had no authority to
indicate the sentimnet OF the county
he comes from.
Lincoln county has been loyal
to Republican principals alwoys, .
said one Of the delegates before leav-
ing for his home, and never recog-
nizes a boiling aggregation. We
voted In the regular convention and
were for Scherr. We would have
stuck to him till the convention end
ed had he not taken the step he did
and permitted few sour minded
individuals to conduct his campaign
of villiflcation. Mr.. Scherr was beat
en- squarely and should put his
shoulder to the wheel and do things
for the party which has kept him in
Office for so many years, and given
employment to his family"

Phipps and Banks were convicts and
both negroes.
Apparently satisfied that he had
killed his man. Phipps like the fiend
that he is. stood cody by until an
officer came mp and took him to his
cell.
The murder occurred In the prison
pharmack and Phipps's motive was
purely one OF revenge. On the sec
ond day of last February Phipps made
a murderous assault on Banks while
they were in line.

THE TICKET
Predicts That sWisher viii Re.
ceive Much Larger Major
ity Than Dawson Did

'Myron G. Tough. of Tafrmont, was
here Saturday. returning from the
Republican state convention at
Charleston. In a brief interview he
said:
THE ticket named by the Republic
can state convention at Charleston is
one of the strongest that has ever
been placed In the field by the Repub-
llcan party of West Virginia. It is
composed of active. vigorous. re-
sourceful young men, every one of
whom is good mixer. The ticket is
well distributed over the state.
THE Scherr bolt will help the tick
ct this fall. The boilers would have
voted for a Democrat anyhow us the
dissatisfied fellows did in 1904, and,
In my Judgment, there would have
been more Of them under regular
conditions than there will be since the
bolt has occurred.
"swisher will win by much larger
majority than Governor Dawson re-
'ceived at the last election."S

The Iron River Department
Correspondence Contributed

Monday, and will be watched by
Iron River Citizens who are in
terested in fair play. That the
accused persons will fight for
every inch Of ground goes with
out saying. Many of those who
are accused of selling liquor to
minors contend that the liquor
was secured for the minors by
trick, that in some cases it was
even purchased by the private
detective in the saloons and
given to the boys. If this
method of securing evidence
against saloon keepers is to be
countenanced in this community,
then the movement to secure a
full compliance with the state
laws will fail. The saloon men
who are doing business here are
not angels, or they would MT be
in the business, neither are they
devoid of principle, and they are
as anxious to comply with the
law and to make the town as
clean and respectable as the cir
cumstances will permit. But
when a matter of prejudice and
personal enmity shall take the
place of fair and honest treat
ment then there will be not only
rebellion on the part of those
directly interested, but all citi.
zens who love fair play will rally
to the support of the under
dog"
The action of the detective who
is attempting to whitewash Iron
River is as reprehensible and is
so thoroughly disgusting that
even those who are anxious to
see better condition of things
are aroused.
