"Clarksburg, w. Va, Oct. 1. 1903.
Mr.. Ogden frankly tells where he
stands and what his attitude Is, and
thus explodes another bomb in the
camp, whose fond hope
was that he would renounce alleg-
lance to the political party Of his
choice and aid even directly in the
effort to elect Democratic county
clerk. and also other Democratic can-
didates for county office.
Republicans GENERALLY appreciate
the manly stand he takes in his con-
clusfon to diligently and zealously
aid the Republican party In the cleo
ton of its ticket and the good work
he will do in that direction viii NOT
be forgotten.
