Our republican friends mere aDouts
have been having some little com
motion recently over the dispositions
of official spoils. The sessions of the
Federal court always bring swarm
of republican politicians here and there
is mostly something doing on that
line. 1t seems that the deputy marshal
a Mr.. Brown, who has been making a
goodly number of arrests in the East
ern Panhandle for small ofienses dur
ing the past year or so has been having
considerable business before Mr.. Wal
bur II. Thomaa, tue United States
Commissioner before whom these
cases were heard and during the past
summer he fell out with the commits
sioner and has since been working 10
get his scalp. We hear that Mr..
Thomas claims that Browns griev-
ance was that he, Thomas, as commits
sioner, did not send all the parties
whom Brown arrested to Parkers bu g
or Wheeling so he could make big
mileage, somewhere in the region of IA
hundred dollars. Mr.. Brown set about
without the knowledge of Thomas TO
GUST him and have his friend, Squire
TIT. Lemen, new acguition to the
republican rauks, put ir the place.
Mr.. Thomas heard of the efforts be-
ing made TO Dust and the substitution
of the renegade democrat during The
schemers with hammer and 10. CUES.
There was a ,copfeeace called TO meet

who were interested were there. L is
said that Thomas spoke out 10 The dis

We hear that he lold the Judge that If

sent TO Parkersburg or Wheeling for

Our contemporary, the distinguish

isfied with the way the election for
members Of the Martin sburg Board Of
Education is going. This editor has
been complaining and kicking at the
board for the past year or more aud
from what cause we shave never yet
been able to discern even from al! his
long editorial fulminations on the
matter. / has been continual scold
and yet there has not been anything
of logic,or even reason said with it all.
The truth is that the present board
has been giving the best service to the
town it has for many years. lThey have
been diligent in their efforts to inn
prove the conditions and the efficiency
of the schools and to give the taxpay-
ers the best possible service for the
money which they are paying out.
Better stop scolding and give the board
your support. Let them see that there
is some appreciation of their labor and
if you see where you think there might
be Improvement go to them and good
naturedly but frankly tell them and
hear what they say.
