Especial to the Mcdowell Times)
By j. L. Collier

The Grand Old Party has,
again, scored a wonderful vic
tory. The citizens of WEIGH, West
Virginia went to the polls June
7th to elect mayor and council
men from the three wards, and
two at large. The Republican
ticket was composed of the fol-
lowing fine business men of the
city of WEIGH:
For Mayor John w. Blakely
For Councilman, first ward -
George Suthers
For Councilman, second ward
Albert Barley
For Councilman, third ward
John Gullett
For Councilmen-at-large o.
Gail T. Carter and S. M. Burgess.
For the Democrats:
Mayor-G. Samuel Hunt
Councilman 1st ward-James
Shelton
Councilman End DIV. G..
Mcbride
Councilman Bird ward - jim
Hatfield
Councilmen at large DR.. Yer
million and George w. Howard.
Mayor John w. Blakely has been
at the head Of the city govern
ment for the past fourteen years
and is unbeatable. The finest,
most efficient organization that
has been perfected in Mcdowell
county for the past twenty
years was in the field to elect
Mayor Blakely and his ticket.
A vigorous campaign was
waged by both parties and was
especially clean in the beginning.
Along toward the close of the
campaign, the story is some
what different. Certain members
Of both parties took on them
selves to do a bit of dirt, but
this was not approved by the
candidates of either side.
More genuine interest was
displayed by the several candi-
dates and their followers, than
has been shown i'm the city of
WEIGH. The registration was
very close and Of course a close
fight was anticipated. The city
was over-run with officers dur
ing the campaign and county

and out of county men were no
ted in the fight, especially with
the Democrats. Every man and
woman in the city was on his
or her toes during the campaign
and when the final day of reck-
oning ca m e it found, Sheriffs
deputies from all over the
county in the city.

est is manifest in an election,

voters in the city on this day.

the past twenty-eight years, and

Republican side of the fence.
The Democrats also had we'll

work in harmony. There were
men of character and ability on
both of the tickets and therefore
you can we'll imagine how their
friends worked for them.
With men of the calibre of

Albert Barley, S. Milt Burgess,
George Southers and John Gull
let, are presented to the public
to pass ON, the results are almost
always in their favor. The city
OF WEIGH has won a great victory
in thus electing these fine men
to handle the governmental af-
fairs of the city for the next two
years. We. the citizens of the
city Of WEIGH are appreciative
and do hereby desire to show our
gratitude and confidence that we
have in these men. If and when
the city of WEIGH has an oppor-
tunity to place better m e n in
charge of the government of the
city of Welch, / sincerely hope
it will please them to so elect.

broken with this added weight.
The city platform of the Demo-
cratic party included the con-
struction of sidewalks to Coney
Island and Stevens Clinic, uni
formed Negro police service for
the Woodmont section of WEIGH,
and varied program of sug-
.gested civic improvements.
Blakely Cites COP Record
Mayor Blakey called on the
voters to examine the record
since 1924 and determine whe
Their the history of the Republic
an regime merited continuance
of the present administration.
All but one of the 6 Republican
candidates were up for reelec-
ton. the exception being John
Gullett for councilman from
ward 3, at Hemphill.
Despite any possible beliefs
to the contrary in hot political
campaigning as this one was, no
no violence of any nature was
reported throughout the day
yesterday or during the weeks
lof campaigning preceding the
election. The temper of the peo-
pie of Welch was kept at an even
keel throughout, even though
both sides derided the tatics of
the other as being improper in
many respects.
A number of unusual features
marked the mayoralty campaign
of the past few weeks. Mr.. Hunt
and Mr.. Blakely are both pioneer
residents of Welch. Mr.. Hunts
father first sold land or the de-
velopment of the site for the city
to Captain Isaiah Welch in 1884
and 1885. Mayor Blakely''
father was Welch's first post
master even as early as 1891,
when Welch was known in the
postal record as Stansill, w. Va.
The offices of councilmen on
both Democratic and Republic
an states were sought by men of
outstanding calibre in the bust
ness and civic life of the city,
particularly the Offices of council
men-at-large, so that the voters
were faced with problems of
political learning, not with the
choice of integrity or character.
Finally, the election wa s
rapid-fre, with the voters
marching to the polls with an
attitude of quiet determine
ton.

years old. He's been married II
times. He is the father of 81
children. He served in the
Union army in the Civil War.
He is a chiropodist. He makes

revealed by a study of the Amerl
can Iron and Steel Institute. Be-
tween 1926 and 1887 employment

that for the steel industry as
whole, employment in which
