Card from Mr.. CornweII

TO the voters OF Reno district:
Believing that had been reliably
informed that my name would appear
on the ballot to be voted November
3. as candidate for Commissioner OF
the County Court, my friends and
myself made partial canvass of the
district
In reply to the inquiry, "Will your
name be on the ticket?" 1 answered in
the affirmative, that it would. In
that l was mistaken.
To all who voted for me by writing
my name on the ballot, and all who
desired to, and would have voted for
me had my name been on the ticket
/ am thankful.
To those who voted for my oppon-
ent, Mr.. Sidwell, believing that they
were voting for as good or better
man for the position, l have no i'll
will
10 those who misrepresented me
at the different polling places by stat
ing that refused to pay the fee neces-
sary to have my name placed on the
ballot l hope that some day they will
know me better, and also learn that a
candidate does not have to pay a fee
TO have his name placed on the ballot
TO be voted at a general election
Sincerely,
j. S. CORNWE- L.

Card from Chairman Gibson

To the voters of Reno district:
1t has been reported to me that 1t
was the desire OF the voters OF Reno
district to vote for Mr.. ]. S. Cornwell
OF Sinclair for Commissioner OF the
County Court. / am also informed
that 1t was represented at the polls on
election day that Mr.. Cornwell had
failed to pay his fee and for that
reason he was left off the ticket. In
reply to this / will say, that /, as
chairman OF the Democratic executive
committee. sent a blank certificate OF
nomination to w. w. Stafford, which
was to- be filled out by the district
convention called by the executive
committee at Fellowsville on August
LIST. and that previous to the day of
the convention Stafford had promised
me at Rowlesburg that he would at
tend the convention and see that the
certificate was properly filled out and
returned to me. This certificate was
never returned to me and / was in
formed later that there was no con-
vention at Fellowsville as called by
the committee. Later / wrote to Mr..
Stafford and received no reply from
him in regard to candidates for Reno
district. 1t was not until after the
time had passed to put Mr.. Corrwell
on the ballot that / learned that you
wanted to vote for him on our ticket.
and for want of candidate the ticket
was left blank. Mr.. Cornwen did not
fail to pay any fee as there is no fee
required. No one regrets more than
| myself that Mr.. Cornwell was not on
the ticket n your district, and il
had any knowledge of your wishes
he would have been on the ballot.
Mr.. Cornwell has failed in nothing,
the committee has failed in nothing.
but the people of your district sim
ply Jailed to nominate your candidate,
so the committee under the law could
not put him on the ballot. Without
being on the ticket Mr.. Cornwell re-
ceived 100 votes and Mr.. Cornwell
| and myself feel that he would have
been elected If he had been or the
ballot. This vote is a magnificent tri-
butte to Mr.. Cornwell and coming as
VI does in large part from his Re-
publican friends / feel that Mr.. Corn
well has been greatly honored by you.
My only regret is that you did not
have an opportunity to vote for him
without writing his name on the bal
lot.
Yours sincerely,
]. V. GIBSON,
Chairman of the Democratic
Executive Committee for
Preston County.

WON HIS SPURS

Now that the water paper trust achieved
such notable victory over the common
people it is no more than right and Just
that It should see to IL that Senator Ar
Gngton Bliss McCrum be made president
OF the state senate. No one has been
more loyal 10 the interests Of the water
power trust than Senator McCrum. To
bis political sagacity and foresight must
be given credit for the nomination and
election Of Samuel O. Billings TO the
state senate.
The Preston County Journal, whose
editor proiessed 10 be- bitterly opposed TO
the water power trust and any candidate
that wore its brand, became the most
ardent supporter Of the trust candidates
and boldly stated that 30 had no apologize
70 make for supporting such candidates.
No doubt the Journal will iuss, upon the
election Of Senator McCum ~ tie vrs-i-
dency Of the senate.

TERRA Alta. Nov. 16. 1911.

TERRA ALTA, Nov. 16, 1914. d.
Editor Argus:
In one OF the editorials OF last week g
Preston News the statement is made that
l., as referee during the game Of football
between Kingwood and Terra Alta, at
Terra Alta, 20 far forgot myself that /
took punch at one of the KIngwood
players. This is untrue and the author
of it knows it is not true. Twice during
this game helped to part some of the
players in order TO prevent fight, but
as far az my hitting OF striking any PLAYER
during this game am sure your athletic
instructor, Mr. Carter, will verify this az
an untruth.
/ hope the editor Of the News will be
gentleman enough to correct this mistake
in the next issue Of his paper.
Personally, regret very much that
Terra Alta high school has taken the
action she has 10 sever all athletic rela-
tons with Kingwood high school. az I
can see no just reason for IL, a. i'm both
the game at Terra Alta and the one M
kingwood each team used players who
were not high school students, and /
think one school was AZ much 10 blame
a. the other. As to the game at Terra
Alta, ] think II has been very much
magnifed by both sides, as most Of the
trouble vas caused by outsiders rushing
on the field and interfering, for which !
do not think either the schools or the
teams should be censured. / hope that
She schools will get together and settle
these little differences and re-establisb
their athletic relations, az IL seems a
shame that these schools should not en-.
gage in friendly athletics
