To The Democratic Voters OF Jeffer-
son County.

AT the last term of the License Court
of this county a petition, large in NUM-
bers and high in character, was presented
TO the County Court against the granting
of license for the sale OF intoxicating
drinks. The County Court declined to
permit the sale of Spirituous liquors IN
the county, and were governed IN their
action by the following law:
"The County Court Shall hear any
petition of residents OF the county, in
addition to that OF the applicant. in favor
of or in remonstrance against application
for such license, and in all cases Shall re-
fuse the same whenever, in the opinion
of the Court, (having due regard to the
number and character OF the petitioners
such license is not necessary or the APP
plicant is not fit person to whom Sucn
license should be granted"
After an examination OF the petition
presented, on which were found Inc
names OF $500 persons, among whom
were about 1000 voters of this county,
the Court, by vote of three to two, de-
clined to grant license. The law was
plain. and there seemed to be no other
course to pursue. II is not the province
nor the purpose of what is known as the
Law and Order Committee to take part IN
politics, but attention is here called to the
fact that a member of the Court, Daniel
Heflebower, who voted in favor ofgrant-
ing license, is now a candidate TOR Com
missioner OF the County Court, and IN
opposition TO him is William Wilt, who
announces that he will pursue the same
course followed by the majority OF the
Court when they last acted on this ques-
ton.
This is fight for principles and moi
for persons, and an appeal is made 10
the people OF this county in sympathy
with this movement to cast their ballot
in favor of Mr.. Wilt, and in that way
secure the object for which they have
been contending.
This Committee has exerted itself to
enforce the mandate OF the County Court
A great deal of time, labor and expense
has been devoted to the promotion o.
this object.
We now appeal to the voters OF this
county to stand by the action OF this
committee, and not to allow the candl-
dacy OF anyone to divert them from the
cause for which we are battling anc
which is OF the highest importance tc
every right thinking and w-abiding citl-
zen of this county.

Communicated.

Editor Register-At the primary cleo
ton on Saturday, one of the most impor-
tant matters to be considered, in my opin-
ion, is the election of members of the
executive committee. In times past,
the duties of the committeeman was to
aid the party by getting out full vote on
the day of election and to look after the
interests of the party between times.
Nowadays, however, the chief business
OF the members of the committee seems
to be to dictate the nominees of the party
and to say who shall receive favors and
who shall be punished. They have be-
come bosses, instead of representatives
OF the people.
II is time to make change in these
committeeman, and hope that the die
tatorS may be replaced by men who will
represent all interests fairly. The fol-
lowing persons have been suggested for
the executive committee in Shepherds
town, and will be supported at the polls
on Saturday. Be sure to write their names
on the ticket before you cast your ballot.
Lower Precinct-John c. Reinhart and
Robert T. Banks.

AT special meeting Of the Democrat
ic Executive Committee of Jefferson
county on Thursday last the resolution
offered by c. N. Campbell was adopted.
This resolution provides that the tickets
at the primary election on Saturday shall
be retained by the election officers and
given TO voters only when they enter the
voting place, and must be signed by the
clerks, as in the Australian system.
This plan must be commended by all
who favor fair and unbiased elections.
Its design is to prevent the fixing o.
tickets by those persons who buy votes
or who use improper influence upon The
voters. 1t is step in the right direction
and we hope will be an entering wedge
to ultimately eliminate the shameful cor
ruption practiced at our primary cleo
tionS.

THE petitions presented to the County
Court last year, praying the court to re-
fuse license for liquor saloons in Jefferson
county, were signed by a considerable
majority OF the voters of the county.
The members of the court recognized the
number and the character OF the petition
ers by declining to grant license. 1t is
now the duty OF these petitioners, in our
opinion, to endorse the courts action by
voting on Saturday for those candidates
who are known to stand for no-licenSe-
Mr.. Moler, from Harper's Ferry district,
and Mr.. Wilt, from Kabletown district.
Both are capable business men and citi-
zens OF the highest standing, and our
county affairs would be entirely safe in
their hands.
The Register has nothing whatever TO
say against the other good men who are
running for the County Court, but it is
enlisted in the war against the terrible
curse of the open saloon and it cannot do
otherwise than recommend the candi-
dates who would keep our beloved county
free from the awful evil.

CONGRESS has passed the new pension
bill by which the enormous sum OF $685.
100000 is added to the 100000 that
is already being spent annually for pen
sions. There is no need for this increased
expenditure-it is simply a bid for the
old soldier vote in which both political
parties are continually raising the limit.
We venture the belief that fully one-half
of this vast expenditure is unnecessary
or unworthily bestowed.
