DECISION OF THE COURT.

I will state that the Court was entirely
unacquainted with the deceased, also
unacquainted with the defendants; but
it is u fact undisputed that there has
been a crime committed, and the evil
dence produced in this case is not suffi-
ciently strong to lead me to believe that
either of these men are guilty, but it is
sufficiently strong to lead me to believe
that it is my duty as an officer to hold
these men for further examination In a
higher court. 1t is therefore my de-
cision that these defendants be held to
appear and answer to the Circuit Court
at the next term in Custer County, and
that they be committed to the sheriff oil
this county until such time as the cir.
cult court shall be held.

Justice of the Peace, Custer County,

While the suggestion that due re-
gard Be paid to the importance Of
clean, honest contests for places on
the Republican ticket may possibly
be superauons in the general, It is
not out OF place to keep the idea
in mind in certain particulars In
some Instances where attempts Will
be made to Inject opposite party
prejudice into Republican ranks
with the purpose OF stirring up inter-
necine discora II may be wen not to
forget the Injunction. The Republic
can party stands for clean, honest
contests by policy and record. Com
ment on this point Is perhaps nm
necessary but 1t should be remem-
bered that our friends the enemy in
their desperation will do many
strange things and their tactics
should be watched. All conscien-
tious Republicans will stand for
honesty and fairness which is en-
bodied in the well known and adj
mirably exemplified doctrine of the
square deal for all. Let it be hoped
that none win become SO embittered
in the heat of campaign to forget
this principle and that none be led
astray by the rantings and impetu-
Gus charges of disgruntled few.
This is not directed to any particular
quarter of politics in this section
but Is intended as a friendly word
to all men of the party whether in
city, county, state or national cam
paigns.

BRYAN WRONG About Bradley.

William ]. Bryan, commenting on
the election of Ex-Governor Bradley
to the United States senate from
Kentucky says he cannot see, where
1t will have any effect on national
politics but he regards it a great
misfortune. If Mr.. Bryan's belief
be true that there will be no effect
on national politics his latter conclu-
sion is erroneous. for, there are
none to speak in derogatory way
OF Mr. Bradley. He is able and
clean in private and public life and
certainly it cannot be a misfortune
to elect such men to office.
Democratic papers, however, do
not agree with Mr.. Bryan as to its
having an effect on national politics.
and as a sample of the position taken
by Democratic papers on the subject
the Telegram appends the following
by the Charleston Gazette, leading
West Virginia Democratic paper:
IL is q rfD-roastlhg bloW TO DEM
ocrats all over the country and reg
listers another long mile post for the
Democrats to pass before they can
hope to control the nation Elk
Governor Bradley is, no doubt, a
high order of man. He was the first
Republican to carry Kentucky and
served the people four years as
governor. There is nothing to be
said against his private or public
life. But this solar plexus punch
from Kentucky is so sudden and un-
expected, that We shall be compeli-
ed to get our bearings before trying
to find out how it happened. 1t is
indeed hard luck for the Democrats,
whatever may have been the direct
or remote cause"
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1908-03-02

The Charleston Mail lntimates edi-
torially that the Democratic admins
tration there is costing the people
considerably more money than when
the government was in charge Of the
Republicans. That reminds the
Telegram of the fact that the cost of
Clarksburg's city government per
capita for the year just past has been
much lower than the same cost of the
municipal governments of all of the
leading cities of the State, fact
that was brought out not very long
ago by an official report made to the
Ciarksburg city council. And in adj
dition to this, Clarksburg's official
salary list is comparatively low, the
city lays its own street paving. lays
sidewalks and keeps them in repair
and constructs and repairs all of its
sewers.

The Peerless Leader

The latest triumph OF William Jen-
nings Bryan in his leadership of the
Democratic party must be reassuring
and full OF encouragement indeed to
the rank and file OF that organization
The triumph was brilliant one,
says the New York World, but only
represents the victory that for twelve
years the Democratic party has been
achieving under Mr. Bryan's peerless
leadership
In 1896, when Mr. Bryan was first
nominated, says the World. there
were 80 Democrats and AZ Republic
cans in the United States Senate. To-
day there are 81 Democrats and 81
Republicans. When Mr.. Bradley
takes the seat OF Mr.. McCreary. il
Bryan's leadership continues. there
VIII not be more than 80 Democrats
and So Republicans
Not a single Democratic vote VIII
be necessary even for the ratification
of treaty. The Republican major
ity can split in two equal factions
and each faction out vote the Dem
ocratic minority. The Democrats in
the Senate of the United States Will
have returned to their despairing
status during Grants administration.

Only two or three papers in West
Virginia announced the election of
Bradley in Kentucky to the United

and some of them have not yet found
it out. This emphasizes the excel

as it was one of the few newspapers
which gave the public that important
piece of news the day 1t happened.

There are reasons to believe that the

of yeraclty so the people of Clarks-

this CITY is about the most hustling
