The Republicans throughout the
county will BE gratitied to know that
the Democratic schelnesto get control
Of the Republican committee Of this
county failed of It's purpose as was
predicted il would fail. The attempt
to throw Chairman Howard R. Furbee
out Of the committee, without the pre-.
tence Of cause or reason, and to do
the same thing to Secretary A. L.
Lehman, was deservsdly miserable
failure. n
The committee as It now stands Is
thoroughly and Loyalty Republican.
All men Of integrity and Of high or.
der. Republicans Of the county will
feel secure that its Organization will
not be dominated or dictated to by the
Democratic leaders. nor viii Repub-
.lican plans and secrets be carried to
Democratic Headquarters. And that
every Republican in the county will
get a square deal.
The Democrat meeting Of the Re
publican 10. committee called to be
held at Thomas A. Deyeny's hotel this
afternoon could not materialize on
account Of having an insufficient num-
Der Of the committee, and It therefore
proved another abortive attempt on
the part Of the Fairmont Postmaster
to get control OF the organization Of
the party whose candidates lie always
opposes.
Mr.. Carpenter who sent in his res.
ignstion as a member d the commit
tee several days ago, and who had
vacated his Office by moving out Of
the county a year. Of SO ago, was
brought back to Fairmont during the
night under guard, being in the custo.
dy Of Captain G. q. Dawson, the hang.
man Of the penitentiary, and kept in
hiding at the Marietta hotel until the
time for the meeting Of the commit
tee, when an attempt was made to
have him act as a member notwlth'
standing that he had not only removed
from the county but had sent in his
resignation
