Mr.. l. c. POWELL
MAKES A REPLY
TELLS THE TIMES WHY HE MADE
SOME REMARKS ATTRtsUT.
ED TO HIM.
Editor West Ylrginlan.

Editor West Vtrgtntan:
The Times Of this. morning was
pleased to quote some remarks made
yesterday morning to John F. Phillips
and others. Mr.. Phillips. leaning
against the railing of the Court.hous4
porch, was telling dirty story Of the
street gutter kind at the expense OF
Harry Shaw and John l.. Lehman,
two gentlemen who are representing
the Republican party, and represents
ing it well, 1t seems, in the disputes
growing out OF the late election. Mr.,
Phillips intended to be offensive, at
least I think SO. and Imade the retort
in about the same words contained
in the Times But the Times did not
give all said, If II had quoted me
in full l should have nothing to say
now. What added and what the
Times omitted was taat II / had my
way would throw out enough Demo.
cratic precincts to defeat all the Dem.
ocratic candhates-this as slight
Offset to the wholesale Democratic
rascality OF the past twenty-five years.
remembering the throwing ont of Ben
tons Ferry precinct to defeat the late
and lamented James H. Furbee for
State Senator: the systematic count
ing out of Mr.. b. D. Fleming for
County Commissioner; the breaking
in of the Courthouse vaults to steal.
the seat in the House of Delegates of
Mr.. Eldridge Carter; the voting IF
forty OF fifty non-residents and for.
eigners who were brought here to
work on the Courthouse; the organ.
iZation of a Dago army of repeaters,
not to mention tie suspicious dirty
work at Everson four years ago. /
think 1t would. break up their rascallv
tactics If they were given some of
the medicine we have had to take.
Certainly many Republicans will agree
with me that they richly deserve tle
kind of treatment l have suggested.
