JOHN HEWITT

Mr.. Editor:
Please allow me space in an unsolic-
tied testimony to say word in re-
gard to the candidacy of my good
friend John Hewitt, whose announce
ment for nomination for County Clerk
on the Republican ticket | noticed in
your last issue.
The first thing we should note in
reference to an aspirant for any of
fee is, whether or not he is qualified
for the position he seeks. What
about the qualifications of John
Hewitt? He was born in log
house of honest Woodworking parents.
| was acquainted with his father,
Joel Hewitt, for fifty years; he was
an honest hard working, accommoda-
ting man whose latch string" always
hung on the outside.
Is John qualified? you may ask.
There is no better qualified man in
the County. This may seem very
broad assertion, but | know whereof
| speak.
You may ask, us he worthy Of
political consideration answer,
emphatically, YES. His father was
one of the pioneers of the G. O. P.
in Barbour County. John always
votes right and he has two brothers
in Old Valley who make their mark
under the EAGLE"
While | would not '"bar" any Re-
publican from being a candidate, |
would like to see John, as a repre-
sentative of the old line Republicans
go through without opposition Let
US pay them this compliment.
As one who remembers the cam
paign of Fremont, and Dayton, and
who cast his maiden vote for Haynes
and Wheeler, let me beg of all Re-
publicans to keep down all fractional
fights Let us put this great coun-
try in the hands of the party Of peace
and progress. With a united party,
Barbour County, West Virginia and
the United States is Republican,
With man in the White House who
is trying to sacrifice the honor, indie
pendence, sovereignty and liberty of
our people to foreign nations, it be-
hooves US to awaken to the menace
that threatens us-ofering to give
foreign Nations more than they would
ask. (See comments in English
papers.) Woodrow Wilson does not
represent the true. sentiment of the
Democratic party, but commands sup
port only through, so called party
regularity"
Keep down factional fights, nom
mate good men and we will redeem
this great country from Wilsoniar
misrule.,
Yours for all the above,

LINCOLN, THE GREAT INTER
PREFER OF AMERICAN
PRINCIPLE

Lincoln was an exponent Of Amer
lean principles. In two directions his
influence tells to this day: against
the evil of slavery, and against the
evil Of intemperance.
In speech that Lincoln delivered
on Washington's Birthday, ms the
year 1912, he confidently foretold that
the forces making for good would
eventually get the ascendency every
where. '"And when the victory is
complete" he said, "when there shall
be neither slave nor drunkard on
the earth, how proud the title of that
land which may truly claim to have
been the birthplace and the cradle of
both those revolutions that shall have
ended in victory. ~ " ~
1t is said that Lincoln's hatred of
slavery began when in New Orleans
he saw slaves chained and whipped.
That was in the spring of 1881, when
he was twenty-twos Some years later
the subject of slavery was discussed
in the Illinois Legislature, Of which
Lincoln was a member He was then
of the opinion chat the institution
of slavery is founded on both injus-
tice and bad policy, but that. the pro-
mitigation of abolition doctrines tends
to increase rather than abate it's
evils" He further held that Congress
of the United States ought not to
abolish slavery in the District Of Co
lumbia, unless at the request of the
people of the District" While OPP
posed to slavery, he recognized the
right of the majority to govern. That
principle is one which is muddled and
confused by demagogues in our day
as badly as in Lincoln's His clear
thinking is shown in the key passage
Douglas in the campaign of 1854:
"My distinguished friend says it is an
insult to the emigrants to Kansas and
Nebraska to suppose they are not able
to govern themselves We must not
slur over an argument of this kind
because it happens to tickle the ear
/ admit that the emigrant to Kansas
and Nebraska is competant to govern
himself, but ] deny his right to gov
ern any other person without that
persons consent"
At the second meeting of the two
champions, Lincoln's main argument
was directed against the "monstrous
injustice of slavery. He said:
1.-THE doctrine of self government is
right absolutely and eternally right.
But if the negro is man, is it not
to that extent total destruction of
self-government to say that he, too,
shall not govern himself? When the
white man governs himself and also
governs another man, that is more
than ef-government- that is despot-
ism. Near eighty years ago we began
by declaring that ali men are created
equal; but now, from that beginning
we have run down to the other dec
Iaration that for some men to enslave
others is sacred right Of self gov
ernment. These principles cannot
