In this, the Sixth Congressional

Is a candidate OF whom the voters,
regardless OF party, may we'll DE
proud. This candidate is represent
ed in the person OF J. Alfred Taylor
Of Fayetteville, FayC:tc county. He
is on tho Democratic ticket. Faycttc
county is normally Il Republican
county and Mr.. Taylor by reason OF
his sterling worth and character and
| the esteem and confidence in which
he is ileld by all the people of that
county was twice successful in over
coming this large majority and be
ing elected to the House Of Dele
gates and being the only Democrat
elected from that county. This fact
alone is evidence of his ability, his
worth and his integrity. When Il
man is singled out from all others
and hOnOrcd with Il large majority
as he was in both instances in Fay-
cite equity, when all the rest of the
ticket went down in defeat, is an
evidence of Character and man
hood.
Then in the Primary. when he
was brought forward !, : the race
for Congress by large numbers Of
citizens from Kanawha and Fayctte
counties when he himself had no

shows again his strength and the
confidence in which he is held.
1t is said that Mr.. Taylor's strength
lies in the fact that he is supported
by THE miners vote. This NAV i'm a
measure be true. Ii is no disgrace
ior any man to have the friendship
OF tle people who work with their
lands fer Il living. more than that
OF any other class Of people. But
the evidence in the primary does
Iot show this to be altogether true,
In FaNcttc county the papers as a

miners did not turn out in the Dri
mary and i'm Kanawha county, two
officials OF the Miners Union wee

for the Legislature and that ticket

The miners and this being true they
could not have voted for TAYLOR on
the Democratic ticket in the primary
election. This fact is mentioned
merely to show that Mr.. TAYLOR has
the confidence and support of all
the people and that he is not and
never has been d candidate and
had the support of any one class of
people.
While in the legislature Mr..
Taylor had the wisdom to know that
Ire could not get through any meas.

Hapgood's Drafting

motion Anent the much discussed draft
question. The sentiment Of the league
was easily noted In the FIVE % two
vote that sent the suggestion Of COM
promise on the draft right into the
trash basket.
Hapgood's scheme was as follows:
THAT n major league club could file
with any Of our clubs before Septem-
Der I, an offer 20 pay $4,000 for any
one player who had played two years
with the club in question. II such an
offer is made, then tho club owning the
player can dispose Of him any time

but it SINNERS down 70 the proposition
that instead Of the old draft Il was
herein proposed 10 limit this com

League for NJ least two seasons, pro-
vided further that the claiming club ia

owner Of said young gentleman Is not

price 10 other parties before the ex-
