of the county court have so far rife
fused to take any action against them

found to be there with the goods. He

he man the man the Second district
elected Junior" Brown in 1910. He
made good. That is the reason why
the people of the Second district re-
eleced him in 1912. They did not be-
lieve in discharging a faithful and ef-
ficient employee, so they rewarded
him by continuing him in. service.
The same reason for voting to retain
his services another two years is as
convincing now as it was two years
ago-only more so, for longer ex-
perience has made him much more
valuable as a Congressman.

and man of large skill in financial
matters, his was an important part
in framing the new banking and cur

changes brought about in the history
of our nations montary system. For
his part in that great piece of legisla-

President Wilson and the praise of

ing few words. He presented his
ideas on economy in the affairs of the
state. Mr.. Talbot has many admir-
ers here among the opposite parties
and there is not the least doubt but
that he will carry the county by a
handsome majority. We all know
Ed. Talbot and know him to be a
man who can be trusted in the State
Senate He can't be bought by any
interests. He is an honest man and
his past actions are above reproach.
Charles w. Brandon, Democrat
ic candidate for reelection to the Of
fee of clerk of the circuit court was
present and was called upon to speak
to the voters. Mr.. Brandon is always
on the job when it comes to making
Democratic speeches and he respond
ed without any hesitncy 1t is always
ia pleasure to hear Mr.. Brandon as
he makes things so plain and clear.
He set forth to the voters the reas-
ons why he asked for reelection and
promised them faithful performance
of the duties Of the office as in the
past. The way in which he lambast-
ed the Republican members of the
county court and the Republican Of
ticials in general in their useless ex-
pense of the funds of the county vast
a caution. He laid particular stress
on the fact that the Republican mem
bers of the county court and other
Republican officials were trying to
force the building of new Jail on
the taxpayers and that $4,000 was to
be taken from the road fund and do
mated in the erection of new jail
that is absolutely uncaled for Why
not improve the roads of the county
which will be benefit to the far
mers?
Mr.. Brandon is man who is not
afraid to speak out to the voters Of
the county and they know him so we'll
that they are going to re-elect him by
giving him the largest majority he
has ever received.
Mr.. Brandon is making an aggres-
sive fight for the taxpayers of the
county against the building of a new
Jail and will carry the matter to the
court of last resort before he will
see new Jail built at Philippi.
Everybody was happy at the speak
ing and good fellowship reigned SUI
preme. The speaking of all the gen
tlemen was enjoyed and much good
has been accomplished for the Demo
cratic party in this district.

R. E. Talbot and Hon. C. W. Brandon
addressed the voters of Belington and
vicinity in the Grand Theatre and not
withstanding the fact that the wealth
er was very disagreeable and that the
speakers were late in arriving owing
to the bad condition of the roads be-
TWEEN here and Philippi there was an
excellent crowd present, in fact many
more than was expected.
The Belington Band entertained the
audience pending the arrival of the
speakers and rendered several selec-
tions.
At about nine o'clock the speakers
arrived in automobiles and themeeting
was imediately called to order by Capt
F. P. Rease who introduced Congress-
man Brown as the first speaker of the
evening.
Congressman Brown spoke for a
time, setting forth in a clear and con-
else maner the many good thingsthat
had been accomplished by the Demo-
cratic party at Washington during the
past session of Congress.
He urged the people to hold up the
hands Of Woodrow Wilson, the peace
President, in his great work of peace
and reform and give him another Con-
, gress that would support him in his
policy of peace throughout the World.
He called the attention of the audience
to the fact that the warning nations
| of the old country we're looking to our
President as the arbiter of peace and
1t would be crime for our people to
fail to endorse him and his policies by
defeating the Congressman who were
supporting and carrying out the good
work at this critical stage of the
worlds history.
Hon. b. II. Hiner gifted orator
and man who is well known in this
section, spoke at some length on the
I isues of the campaign. He also urged
the people to stand by President Will
son and give him their endorsement
