There are several candidates whom

There has been for years struggle
on between n cGraw and Chiffon for
the leadership of the party in the state
and though both men are entirely de-
serving and capable it seems that most
democrats sthink lit would be wise
to drop both and take Mr.. Cornwell

and who is acceptable to ali fractions .

tatives. 1t has been conceded since
the morning after the election that
four Of the five would be democrats but
it has recently come out that there was
so much rottenness in The election in
Mcdowell, (Hululand) that Mr.. Ran
Ria Wiley has decided to contest the
election of Hughes, the republican. 1t
is charged that the returns were held
back until II was known how much
Hughes needed and then the returns
were made out to elect him. 1t seems
that Hughes is supreme in that region
and usually gets any kind Of a report
of election he wants, and that on this
occasion the democrats were ignored
that the republicans disregarded the re-
concentrations OF the democrats for
election commissioners and selected
such tools as they could get to do THEN
own vile will. 1t has been long known
that the ring in Mcdowell was the
rottenest on earth. We hope the whole
nefaricus scheme will be laid bare.

There has been no more telling charge
brought against the republican state

outrage u, manner ia which the pc :
pie money has been squandered IN the
manner in which the machine has at
each succeeding session Of the legisla-
tuTe loaded down the pay roll with need
less eun pIoyes of the Legislature. 1t is
to tie hoped that our good democratic
friends who have been elected to the
legislature will not yield to the i'm
portuuities of the hungry democrats,
who may think they ought TO have
feed from the state crib from which
all democrats have for SO long been
barred, and load the pay roll as the
republican machine has been doing fer
so long. Do not be tempted to commit
the same olIense which we have so long
been charging against the republicans.

Hon. Septemus Hall, who has been
the faithful representative from Wet
zels county for many years in the
House Of Delegates Of West Virginia,
is being urged for speaker Of the house
by his friends. He has served tlonger
than any member of the house and
probably then any man since the state
was organized. He is a clear headed
man and his extensive experience quail
ifies him for the responsible position.

The coming Legislature will be called
upon to do something for the roads of
the state in the way of altering the
present law. In the opinion of many
people the best thing the Legislature
can do is to reenact the law which was
repealed by the act creating the pre-
sent law.
There can be no better law made
than the one repealed. Our exper-
ienee in Berkeley county is that there
were more good roads madelthen under
all others tired. There is less machin-
cry about it than the present law and
there is no room for waste and graft as
there IS under the present law. The
experience of Jefferson county is worth
much. That system in a few years
lifted the county of Jefferson out of
mud and has given her system of
roads which is not equaled anywhere
in the state. Jefferson county met hod
il not surpassed anywhere in the
country and ought to be good object
lesson, a model well worthy the atten-
ticn of the coming legislature.

The name of our fellow townsman,
Col S. w. Walker, has been mention
ed in connection with the United
States Senate, as the successor of Sen
ator Scott. Though we do not know
that the Col has any intention of be-
ing candidate, having heard nothing
from him personally, we would be well
pleased if he should be the lucky man
and we believe that that is the general
sentiment of the people in this section.
He is one of the best fitted men we
know of for the high position and is
deserving in the highest degree. No
man in the state has been more con-
s.ant in his devotion to the interest of
the party and few have rendered long
er ana more effective service than he.

There are many wrongs to be righted
in state matters when the next legisla.
ture meets but there is none moe im-
portant than that of trimming the eX-
penses of the state government. There
was no issue of the recent cam paign
which cut SO deeply into the republican
ranks as the matter of state expenses.
The state machine has for years been
laying on taxes to meet the in
creased expenses and that the load has
become unbearable. 1t has been the
policy of the machine for years to make
places for all the faithful that skeG
for "A place at the pie counter. The
policy became notorious and the ma
chine got SO bold as TO brag, We once
heard of a state senator who, when met
with the argument that the services OF
several hinchmen were not needed, re-
marked out publicly, that it was not
for their services at Charleston they
were to be paid but for their services at
the preceding election
The democracy, if they wish to retain
control of the state must apply the
pruning knife and spare not the rotten
limbs which are freighting down The
