Political RascaIity.

The Roosevelt adherants say that
the organization or renegades had
more money than they had in the
recent Republican contest in this
county. They claim that while they
were able to pay one dollar vote
the renegades went them nine better
and paid ten dollars a piece for their
colored contingent. Wonder how
long this traffic in the negro vote OF
this county will continue. 1t is q
travesty on the sacred rights Of the
ballot. It is time that the fioodgates
of publicity were thrown wide oper
SO that the white people of the State
may know how degraded politics in
Mingo county has become.

There is no use in discussing the
cow running at large in this city un-
til you can procure dairy near the
city The people are for cows by a
large majority But if we had a
dairy most of those who voted
against the COW ordinance would be
willing to keep cows out of the city,
so they say. Many of our citizens
have gone so far as to say that they
would contribute their cows to the
party who would start the dairy
business here. There is no question
but there is splendid opening here
for some good man to do great and
lucrative business in this line. Ev-

taking.
