Young man let US give you the
benefit of our observation. We
have noticed that at least nine
tenths of the yonng men who have
been before judges for misdemean=
ors are those who take no interest
whatever in education, seldom
read a newspaper, and are always
ready to make fun of other young
men who use correct language and
try to be somebody. 1t comes nat
ural to them to discourage the
studious and ambitious young men
of their acquaintance. Their minds
run toward dirty stories. midnight
sprees and bad company. This in
a short time means trouble, sher-
ifs invitation to attend court. and
a fine or a term in jail.

The CITY Iickets.

The Republican ticket for the city
election was nominated by the rank
and file of the party at a primary
election. The Democratic city ticket
was nominated at a convention pack
ed by the schemers OF the party. The
former represents the voice and the
choice of the rank and file, the lat
ter the schemers who met behind
closed doors and slated the ticket.
The Republican nominee for mayor
is the choice of his party at pri-
mary election, conducted in man
ner that is not questioned. The
Democratic nominee is the choice Of
few Democratic schemers, who fixed
up the slate and pushed it through
at the city convention, though the
voice of wisdom was heard extolling
the virtues of another, but that 9th

slate and he respectfully and wisely
declined. Whose nomination in re-

has been a long time since Clarks-
burg's citizenship was Democratic.
True. there are many progressive citi-
zens of that political belief, but it
has long since been accepted as a
fact beyond dispute that the Demo-
cratic party as an organization in
Clarksburg represents retrogression,
inactivity and lack OF energy, enter
prise and administrative capacity.
The police department needs some
age, some experience at its head. The
Republican voters decided they would
offer such. What did the Democratic
clique do? The answer is so plain
that it need not be repeated here.

Experience counts in the street de

nee has strong Endorsements from
even the opposite party, many Of
whose members stand loyalty by
him, and he is strong with his own
party. What recommendation for
the place do the cliquesters advance
for their nominee?
The Republicans nominee for as
SCISSOR has spent the last several
weeks in discharglng the duties OF
the Office and is, therefore, familiar
and in touch with the work. The
democratic nominee number OF
years ago acted as county assessor,
but conditions have undergone great
changes since then, and, it can not
be said of him that he is in touch
with the duties of the Office at the
present day though he might prove
himself very good official.
1t has always been good princi-
pie in business, as well as city gov
eminent. that when one gets good
man, it is wise to keep him. That
is what appeals strongly in the case
of the Republican nominee for school
commissioner and the Democratic
candidate has openly declared he
does not want 1t. The Republican
nominee has been tried and not found
wanting.
The same line of thought and rea.
soning apply to the Republican
nominees for council and their op.
ponents, the former all selected al

cast their ballots, and the latter al
meetings fromed up in advance by
chquesters, and the Republican nomi.
nees are in position, where their can
didacies appeal much more strongly
to the people--the voters in both
parties.
Without personal or disparaging
remarks about the candidates on the
Democratic ticket, the Telegram is
of the firm conviction from all the in.
dications, that the Republican ticket
is the favorite one with the citizenship
of Clarksburg, and feels confident II
will be triumphantly elected at the
polls, without the loss of a single
man.
