HUNDREDS TO LEAVE UNITED STATES WITH LEADER OF "AKIM TRIBE" Lured by tales of a land where gold be found and where cheeses and flour and other things to eat may be pinned from trees and bushes, hundrials of Negroes, most of them living in the Middle West, have warned to the standard of Chief Sam, of the tribe of Akim, and intend to go back with him to the storied Gold Coast of Africa—the land of the Boba, or Cheese Tree; the Karita, or Butter Bush, and the Nata, or Flour Wine. Chief Sam means that all these eatables and more grow in the Uppia of the Akin tribe and he tells his story so convincingly that the number of his followers & growing daily. Coming to Chicago with twenty-four migrants from Maniee, Okla., Chief Sam announced that they were to be added to the band awaiting transportation to the promised land. He asked that he had found a number of large parties, of "colonisee" in New York, Boston and several other cities, and that he expected to take at least 1,000 men and women to Africa on his ship, sailing some time next month. When I will come back on the means the shipments of all negroes back to Africa—back where they came from, the land of plenoy on the Gold Coast." Chief Sam declares his proposition to the negroes of America consists of an offer to transport them from New York to Africa and to give them thirty-four acres of land a piece, for the nominal sum of $25 each. When a representative of The Saturday Blade interviewed Chief Sam in Chicago the Negro was not attired in African riment, but wore a yellow suit, an overcoat of the same color, a brown fedora hat, which was at an angle on his head, and a pair of rubbers over tan shoes. "White folks do not realize the enormity of the negro problem in this country," he said. "The negroes ought to go back to Africa. Farms and gold and happiness wait them there. They are welcome and will receive every aid. "Why are my people inviting the American negroes to Africa. I recalled letters from black men in the United States who wanted to return to Africa. I took their word to chisha of other tribes, who may join in this enterprise here. We of the tribe of Akim, and there are many thousands in the tribe, decided to buy a boat and bring them over. The boat, which is the only one of its size owned by negroes, is waiting for us now." HIS ANSWERS ARE VAGUE Although Chief Sam is apparently a willing talker, all of his statements as to his country, its exact location and matera of a similar nature are vague. It is because of the lack of details regarding the enterprise that some of the negroes of the country have been skeptical regarding the ancestry of the so-called African chief. As related in the Blade recently, Chua C. Clem, a negro of Chanute, Kia., who began an investigation of Chief Sam, received a letter from Duse Mchaed, a negro officer of London, who stated that he had never heard of Chief Sam or his project. He also advised negroes to make a thorough investigation before they decided to cast their lot with the African phlephain. However, those who have joined with him believe he is sincere and apparently have much faith in him. His persuasive powers are good. It is likely that well known negro leaders of the country will make an investigation into the plans of the African colonizer with a view of ascertaining his reliability. There is a demand to know exactly who Chief Sam is, and how far he will be able to fulfill his promises. There are many negroes who say they would return to Africa if they were sure his project is as he represents it. They say an investigation will do no harm, because a Chief Sam is reliable, it cannot hurt him, and if he is not, the negroes should know it, so that they will not be duped by his promises and schemes. There is a possibility that the United States Government may be called upon to take notice of the bary Sam. The chai saya his. name is -Alfred C. O'am, and that he is the ruler of the Akim tribe. Beyond that no one has been able to ascertain any facts regarding him. Charleston, W. Va., Feb. 10. — The Red Dog Christmas deal Headquarters wish to express their thanks to the public, the newspapers and the agents who actively involved in making the 1913 sale of wool for the largest in their history. Seals were sold in 190 townes and 40 counter. Hammond Wit, Wybming, Grunt and Fiddling counties having no agent. Not counting the larger towns which have local trading mills, seals were sold in Fayette county than any other. Charleston and Charleston sold more per capita population than any other places.

W. H. A. BAR- RETT, DELIVERED BEFORE THE BROWNS CREEK DISTRICT INSTI- TUTE Of what does true education consist? Does it mean the commitment to memory of facts and figures? The answer is sufficiently plain that this is not the case—in spite of which however we hear of: see daily examples of individuals who claim to be educated but who allow a lamentable lack of the elements which go to make up education. Education is a large kingdom of which there are several subdivisions. Of these I'll name a few: 1st, Intellectual Culture; 2nd, Self Culture; 3rd, Moral Culture. Without either of these subdivisions there is something lamentably lacking. The connection between moral and intellectual culture is often overlocked, and unfortunately the former is often sacrificed to the latter. The exaltation of talent, as she called above virtue and religion, is the cause of the age. Education is now chiefly a stimulus to learning. Philosophies which alone make it good! Talent is wishedipped; but if divorced from rectitude, it will prove more of a demon than a god. Intellectual culture consists, not chiefly, as many are apt to think, in accumulating information, though this is important, but in building up a force of thought which may be turned as will on any subjects on which we are called to pass judgement. This force is manifested in the concentration of the attention, in accurate, penetrating observation, in reducing complex subjects to their elements, in diving beneath the effect of the causes, in detecting the more subtle differences and resemblances of things, in reading the future in the present, and especially rising from particular facts to general laws or universal truths. By self-culture, I mean the power which we possess of learning the various capabilities and susceptibilities of our minds; what it can do and bear; what it can enjoy and suffer; and thus learning in general what our nature is, and what it was made for. We have the power now only of learning our powers, but of guiding and inspiring them; not only of watching our passions, but of controlling them. We sometimes are the ignominious mistakes made by someone who is regarded by the masses as being educated, and we are forced to believe that the ground of an individual's culture lies in his nature and not in his calling. Not only a few persons desire to improve themselves only to get property and to rise in the world; but such do not properly choose improvements, but something onward and foreign to themselves; and so low an impulse can produce only a stained, partial, uncertain growth. A man should have the conviction that there is something greater within him than in the whole material creation, and that toward improvements have a worth and dignity in themselves quite distinct from the power they give over outward things. Undoubtedly a man is to labor to better his condition, but first to better himself. If he knows—no higher use of his mind than to invent and frudge for his body, his case is desperate as far as culture is concerned. Our own actions and examples will determine our degree of self-culture. It is not determined by what our forefathers were or what we their wealth, standing or color. If there is any aspect of education which is lacking it is liable to be self-culture, and its absence will explain largely the frequent falls of some of those we who think ought to know better. The story is told of a barber living in Australia who found a new kind of seahog and resolved to invent a new kind of grease out of its blubber. He made his grease, operated on his wife and himself; both went to bed and woke up bald and have been so ever since. There is a similarity in this tale to the fate of those who neglect their educational opportunity; those who though diligent in the requirements of facts and (Continued on Page Four.) The Teachers Institute of the Browns Orcad District met at the Keystone-Eckman Graded School Saturday at 10 o'clock a. m. Papers were read by Mrs. Abbot, Mrs. R. P. Johnson and Miss Whitimba; a solo was none by Miss Clara Abbot and a very able address was delivered by Dr. W. H. A. Barret, his subject being "True Education," and discussed in a masterly style. Dr. Colson discussed "Oral Hygiene and Care of the Teeth." His speech was interesting and instructive. Prof. H. K. Barbe, District Supt. made a very helpful talk. All of the teachers present participated in the discussion of the papers and there was not a dull moment. The teachers who were present are to be commended for showing sufficient interest in their work to brave such severe weather as held the valley in its grip, Saturday. Prof. S. N. Mills, of Kyle, was a visitor at the session. The next meeting will be held at Welch on the second Saturday in March. THE NATION- AL CAPITOL Events of Interest From the Seat of Gov- ment PANAMA CANAL TOLLS Congressman Adamson of Georgia attempted to find a back stairway of retreat, by declaring that the plank in the Baltimore platform in favor of discriminating in favor of American ships was "dipped over" on the platform committee. This old fashioned political subterranean was immediately strangled by Senator Walsh of Montana, who pointed out that he and secretary Bryan and senator O'Gorman, as well as other party leaders, knew just what they were doing when this plank was put into the platform. The President maintains that our policy discriminating against foreign ships cannot be carried out with honor in view of our treaty arrangements with Great Britain. The issue appears likely to be squarely met, and it is a sure indication of improved conditions since Democratic leaders refuse to hide behind the bushes, but declare the question will be settled in the open arena of debate in the Senate. OPEN SEASON FOR WAR SCARES In many of the states there is an open season for hunting and fishing, and each year the sportsmen anxiously count the coming of the happy days. Likewise there is an open season for war scares in the United States; and now we are being told of the dangers that surround us because of the fact that our navy is only surpassed by that of Great Britain—and possibly Germany, which country we have "tied" if not passed. Washington has its thumb on the date of this open season, and the rest of the country should mark it up on the calendar, as it can always be counted as an annual visit when the naval appropriation bill appears in Congress. Keep cool, children—Japan, Germany, Great Britain, Mexico, not any of the rest of the people of the world are planning trouble with the United States. THE BEGINNING AND THE END On the outer wall of the United States general land office in Washington there appears the following bronze tablet: Samuel F. B Morse, Artist and Inventor, opened and operated on this site under the direction of the Postoffice Department the first public telegraph office in the United States; April 1, 1845. "What God Hath Wrought." In view of the present day agitation of government ownership of the telegraph and telephone, who will dare to say that this is not the Alpha and Omega? THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL The clouds that have surrounded the formulative processes of the Lincoln monument have cleared away. The contract made by the commission, of which ex-President Taft is the head, has been approved by the Secretary (f War, and whatever friction might arise over the dispute of authority between the Commission and, the Secretary's office has been discounted in advance by the appointment of a joint representative f both bodies. As a result, the ground will be broken in Washington on Lincoln's birthday for the greatest of all national memorials—for a building whi it will in fact be a greater tribute than even that of the Washington monument. Read the Advertisements. Petitions almost the ballot, without voice in government, are far from being on equal footing with those who vote on to unmake the political power of those tr who citizen as petitioners, may go Disfranchised citizens are certainly in a poor attitude a obtain consideration from those in political authority. Twenty-five years ago the colored citizens in the South were not disfranchised. In fact, only 5 years ago the colored voter, were a political quantity to be reckoned with in the Southern States. While there was coming out, frauds and intimidation at the ballot box, here and there the fact remains that the colored voter was a factor and in many cities and counties its ballot was a decisive infiltrer. In the days when the colored citizen was a voter the right of petition was something and it was effective, for behind the petition there was the ballot. Today the colored petitioner is but a supplicant and without power other than that of a subject citizen. Petitions or requests for better school buildings, for better teaching and the life, all of this has become the prey of subject citizens who are not supplicants before the Southern colony citizenry. 000 college high school age has an average attendance of about 70,000 children in a large public school, the average duration of which is probably 90 days of the year. Who it is who cannot grasp the fact that this condition would be otherwise were the 200,000-colored male citizens in the States of voting age enfranchised and not disfranchised citizens? The short-sightedness of those who fail to raise up to the full realization of the mighty power of the voice of the enfranchised citizen is nothing less than a public entity. In these counties and cities in Alabama where the colored citizen constituted one fourth or one-fifth of the males of voting age, these citizens, in the days when colored citizens were permitted to vote, were in a particularly favored political attitude when there arose a division of the white vote as was the case in the days of the populist movement, in tae South. As was the case in Alabama so it was in North Carolina, Tennessee and other Southern States. The ballot was indeed feudal in bringing recognition to colored citizens who came forward as petitioners in times like today. Today the colored citizen, disfranchised and with no voice in government, finds himself an object petitioner and one whose petition more frequently, than otherwise, falls on ears that while bearing, hear not, and the requests of petitioners, had a well been out upon the sea. Just as Frederick Donglass in his early days of his great career, set up visions of freedom from chattel slavery for his race, so it must be that colored citizens in the United States must set up visions of freedom from distrustment. This is a work that must be done by the colored leaders themselves—those in touch with the members of the race. Is it a work for the colored ministers, who are doing so much for the advancement of their people? It is a work for the colored newspapers, edited by men who are providing themselves worthy capable and worthy of the great task of leadership and as moulders of public sentiment and educators along the lines that belong to the power of the press. YOUNG MEN'S SOCIAL CLUB ENTERTAIN WITH DON LIMIT BALL Notwithstanding the severe weather the elite of Keynesians and vicinity standed the Valentine Ball at the New City Hall Friday night of last week. The Young Men's Social Club of Keynes stores of which Mr. W. F. Sapple and Dr. Frank Wilkinson are President and Secretary, and the late and right pupil almost did their own business. Music is dominated by the Columbia Grothaus and the dancing band at 10 of eleven in the auditorium. Platforms of candidates and parties are some times interesting, and usually, they are of such length that the voter hesitates to read them and set their salient points. Promises are usually many and it would be difficult for any candidate or any party to comply with all of them. Recent instances prove this to a certain extent. But out in Oklahoma one Al Jennings, a West Virginia by birth and for many years a train robber by incintration, has set a new standard for brevity in platforms. He is a returned robber and his consequently goes through the mill without restoring politics to do it. His platform is a gain in a way, and follow in full. "My platform is fidelity to the people real honesty in office and that the law shall be no response of paranoia. When these principles are truly and honestly carried into effect all interests will be subserved and taxes will be reduced. I all my life I have never betrayed a confidence. If it a people confide in me, God being my judge, I'll not betray them." Charleston, W. Va., Feb. 19.—Reckless miners and mine foremen who risk their own lives and the lives of other miners working in the mines are to be punished to the highest extent of the law hereafter. This announcement has been made by the State Mining Department in a circular letter to the various district inspectors. Each of the twelve district Inspector of the State has received the letter from Chief Inspector Henry containing his specific and unmistakable instruction that whenever a man is found perishing it dangerous precision is to be summarily dealt with. The letter of Chief Inspector "By referring to Section 15 of the Mining Laws you will notice that the Mine Foreman is in absolute charge of all underground conditions and it is his duty to see that the Mining Laws are strict) complied with, and, in the future, where you find it necessary to prosecute miner or mine laborers for persisting in any dangerous practices that would create accidents or destruction of property, you will present the Mine Foreman also for permitting any violation of the Mining Laws and rules of the companies. "In your future inspections you should warn all foremen in regard to the above instructions." In addition to this letter, Chief Henry has also written to the operators of the State notifying them that the inspector will prosecute Mme Foreman and miners hereafter for violation of the State Laws and the company's rules for the conduct of the men underground. Mr. Henry yesterday that it had been necessary lately to prosecute miners for shooting off the solid and he said that it had been proven in each instance that the man had done this in the face of direct and specific instructions from Mine Forecast to the contrary. He also called attention to the fact that miners persisted in riding on trips and that was a violation of the State Mining Law. He added that if the state officials could not induce the minors to have weapon for their own lives and the lives of others by showing them what was right the officials would see that every man violating the law was punished. He added that, after a few men had been heavily fined it would not be necessary afterwards to tel them or their comrades more than once to do or not to do a given thing that would insure safety. Broken in spirit and resigned to their life, the five West Virginia legislators convicted of bribery in connection with the election of a United States senator have over a year ago, entered the presidentialary at Mountville last week. "They all looked like they had gone through a first mill," remarked one of the psychiatric admissions who, in Charleston recently, "but from the expiration of one of them, Sumnah Lee, I know, on their way to prison, they arrived to be middle of so of bad behavior and actions so much them of an personality." The absurd said that Monroeville people don't usually pay any attention to the particular kind of harm they've done, but then when the authorities ordered to arrive more than 7,000 people compagged at the station, attention to a look at the same about which no one has been told, one without during the past several months. In no way less than 711 HOW DOES MY SCHOOL How does it happen that about one in many teachers who teach around every day in the world all about Friday exams and then give a second round enough to have the dearest from Friday all Monday? On Monday they then all will meet. One hundred years ago when the British were on their way to Washington, three of the banks of Alexandria, Virginia offered to loan the government $50,000 for the construction of more defences for the District. The money was accepted but nothing was done as for Washington, 12 miles down the Potomac on the Maryland side. In the war of 1812 the stirring events in Virginia and Maryland occurred in 1814. From the first, Virginia was heartily in favor of the conflict and constituted men, money and measures toward its success. It is deeply interested in the Centennial which Baltimore will hold next September. The date of this Celebration is as for the Battle of North Point and the Bombardment of Fort McHenry, in which Virginia is troops took part. The popular result of those stirring days was the birth o. the Star Spangled Banner, which by executive order has become the National anthem in both Army and Navy. Francis Scott Key, who wrote this lyric, was asked to obtain the release of his friend and was on a British ship. He was detained during the bombardment and the anthem was the inspiration of his experience. When daylight appeared he saw the flag, was still dying over the Fort and wrote the lines on the book of an old envelope. The song became immediately successful and so it has continued thirteen years until it is known as the American anthem. Baltimore's Celebration will comprise a week, beginning Sunday, September 6th and ending the following Sunday. On the first Sunday there will be a celebration. Monday will be a day of welcome to distinguished visitors, for the unwelling of tablets by patriotic societies and the arrival of the ship, "Constellation," and the fleet which the Navy has promised to send, with a general illumination of the City in the evening and band concerts in every part of the city. Tuesday will be Industrial day, with a parade and the illumination of the City in the evening. On Wednesday, Fraternal Orders will hold their procession and they are expected to make the greatest demonstration in their history. Thursday will be the Municipal and Athletic day, with parades and contests and in the evening there will be the most gorgeous historical figures ever witnessed in America. Friday will be given to the Military parade of the Army and Navy and the National guard. Virginia has offered to send some of its best troops. This will be followed by a banquet to the President of the United States and his Cabinet, to the Governors of the different States and to the visiting officers of the Military and of the Navy. With it will be an illumination of the city. On Saturday will come the climax—"The Big Spunged Banner" day. The flag will be encrusted through the city to Fort McHenry and the escort will consist of the President of the United States, the Gov. of the different states, distinguished and specially invited guests and troops from the 18 states that formed the United When the National anthem was written. President Wilson will make an address and the anthem will be sung by a human flag formed by the school children of Baltimore. Sunday, which closes the week, will be devoted to peace. It is expected that at least 100,000 visitors will attend the exercise. Spread rates will be made upon the railroads and steamboat lines. As 4 p.m. a public meeting was held at the Opera House at which there was a large gathering of visitors, the local churches having postponed their services on this account. The program consisted of the following addresses: "Public Health and Sanitation," Dr. G. A. Borges, of Bluffield. "Preventative Contagious Disease," Dr. Holly, of Brunswick. "Some Sequestrations Toward the Preservation of Health," Dr. B. G. Harrison, of Knighton. Welcoming these additions means we made by Dr. A. S. Manna, of Farnham, Va., and Dr. D. Mitchell, of Edwinston, Colton and Jones. dinner by Dr. Mitchell and Honorary exhusion at the Holland House. Dr. medicines were treated to a奏奏 and beautiful repast which was quite dignit- ally served. Following dinner the Association and in private session at the office of Dr. G. A. Jones and transacted a considerable amount of business. Dr. Viney, Edwards and Harrison called the attention of the association to the good and applicable feeling which has hitherto existed among the members and prayed for a continuation of name. On the motion of Dr. Harrison, a Board of Censure was appointed by the "presid- ent, whose duty will consist of dealing with the ethical conduct of members. The board consists of Dr. Viney, W. G. Mitchell, N. L. Edwards and W. V. Bridgwood. With reference to the State Medical meeting which will meet on September in June, the President appointed the following committee: (1) On arrangements, Dr. Edwards, Bostrom, Michel, Holly and McSuffin; (2) On claims, Dr. Shipman, Hilton and Linden. The Secretary handed out to the members the new Manitoba Oral Health property filled out with the final of the foundation affidavit. The confidence is a beautiful display and accepted some the valuable comment. Des. Colonel of Keynes and Moe of Pistonites were admitted to social membership, and Mike Minnie Quay, head nurse of Moe's Hospital and Moe Ontario Gilman, head nurse of Lester Hospital were admitted to hospital more than one of the presidents. The next morning will be of a business dinner will start in May in Birmwell for the purpose of posting arrangements for the founding Moe Medical Association. RESURRECTION OF CHRIST, IMAGINATION Seen, Paul, Miller, of Prentice All real and unselfish Republicans are willing to concede to many thins for political harmony in its ranks. And the hope of the mass of voters and taxpayers is that personal ambition will be left on at the "get together" meeting next week for the sake of the great promotion of Republicanism. * (From Extra Edition of The McDowell Times, Feb. S. 1914) It is generally reported that certain Democrats in McDowell county are financing the campaign of D. S. McFarlin for mayor of Keystone. The wires are laid by the Democrats who hope to now instate D. E. French for Congress and capture McDowell county and to get nucleus of strength by getting control of the city government in Keystone. It is known that Mr. McFarlin is not financially able to finance his own campaign. E. H. Harper will not do so, Dr. R. E. F. Bragonier is not famous for free spending; Mr. A. J. Stewart of the Keystone Co. and Coke Co. may possibly get some assistance from his company, through Mr. T. E. Houston; Mr. W. E. Stuart is furnishing some beer, but from information received from reliable sources, the buil't the money being used by McFarlin and his supporters (and they are spending some) comes from powerful Democrats in the county who want to get foothold in Keystone. Beware boy don't trust the Democrats. It is understood that a new paper will be started at Keystone and that the initial number will be issued one day the week. The paper will be an independent Republican sheet with the prime purposes of fighting the organization, better known as the "booses" and the "gang." The determination to establish such paper took form immediately after the recent Keystone election in which the gandalf defeated the reform ticket by a small majority. It has been stated that the newspaper has the backing of several stanchions Republicans who have toorefores affiliated with the powers that be, but for reason best known to themselves, have kicked out of the traces and in the future will fight anything that has the stamp of approval of the "booses." It may be said that there will be a political upheaval in McDowell county, and that the "upended majorities" here foregiven the G. O. P. will be reduced to naught. What attitude the new paper will take in regard to the sanddags in Means, Shots and Cooper in their struggle for the Republican nomination. Congress remains to be seen, but it would not be amusing to see it oppose both of them, for the reason that they have all faced with the powers that be, and from what can be learned of the new paper it will oppose anything endorsed by the "ring." The editorial end of the new paper will be in charge of Mr. Sowes, a bright young lawyer, and is will be interested to watch the developments when he warms up and goes after the crooked politicians of McDowell county. Lay on McDuff, lay on, and demanded he be who fires cain hold enough. Feb. 18, 1913. on November 16th, an all-white Democratic paper in South west Virginia and when it was started it was currently reported that on December Warner was the financial bearer. The very fact that the first public information given this past week in a smooth Warner. Democratic paper, shows that the occasion of The McDowell Times in its eighth edi- tion of February 3rd, that Democratic money paid back of McFarlan's campaign was correct. In that edition the ar- ticles above appeared and caused quite a sensation. The ad- herents of McFarlan denied the charge but we knew where of we wrote because we had and still have inside information assuming the deal. We knew that it was the purpose of the McFarlan supporters to start a paper in Keystone more than a month in advance of the public announcement and we further know that the paper would be financed by Democra- tic dollars, notwithstanding the fact that it will claim to be an independent Republican paper. The Blessfield Times claims that the object of the pro- posed paper is to fight what it pleases to call the "gang." As far as the McDowell Times is concerned it has no objection to another paper in this city and welcome it into our milist, but when it is again introduced to Cinder Bottom Sowers who will edit this paper it begs leave to turn its head for the purpose of vomiting, for if there is anything more nauseating than Cinder Bottom Sowers who not only raised a rough house in a bawdy house in Cinder Bottom on Christmas Eve night but it is alleged left with $10 in his possession which did not belong to him. We have never seen or heard of it. Cinder Bottom Sowers would have been an excellent "gangster, as he was during the last campaign, had it not been for the fact that a certain Keystone official recommen- ded his dismissal as deputy sheriff and school teacher because he felt that no white man who violated all rules of decency as Sowers did in a bawdy house run by a Negro woman was worthy to teach white children and represent decent people as a deputy sheriff, hence because of his failure to be longer permitted to disgrace his race as a public official and allow the law of reasonable decency and honesty to violated by him, he became a quasi Democrat and reformer and cried aloud during the municipal campaign that "the painted denizens of the red light district must go." Now he proposes to start a reform payer against the "ring" with Democratic dollars and in that way Cinder Bottom Sowers, "a bright young lawyer," hopes to get off with the ten dollars alleged to have been stolen by him and more from baw- MONTGOMERY CITY SMITH In another column of this issue we publish an article which appeared in several dailies Sunday accusing the opportunities of Negroes in West Africa as pictured by one Obie Sam, an African who is attempting, and Reports are true succeeded in inducing several hundred Negroes to leave this country and go to Africa. It is reported the Chief Sam promises to take Negroes to Africa in a boat owned by his tribe for $35 and hundreds of them in Oklahoma and Texas are disposing of their belongings, paying the $25 and awaiting the word go from Sam. From all available information it seems that Sam is unknown in the part of Africa that he is supposed to take the people who agree to go. More than that his boat can only carry 150 passengers and it is stated that already more than a thousand Negroes have paid the $25 and are ready to depart. This is a serious affair and we cannot understand why people are gallic as to swallow a proposition of that kind without thorough investigation. dy house keepers and Democratic supporters. Short and Cooper's candidacy for Congress may be opposed, the organization may be fought, the "gang" may be attacked, but before Republican majorities are elected We wish to especially impress upon the Necess of Keystone and McDowell county the fact that these developments but confirm the contention of this paper that the McFarmin movement was purely an effort to give control of Keystone and McDowell county over to the Democrats and we seriously regret that a Republican number of the county court and in their true colors and we are glad to be able to see the targets which we propose to shoot at from now on. The day is not yet at hand when McDowell county will be surrendered either to the "illy whites" or Democrats, and as long as there are only about 7,000 white voters in the county, divided between two parties and more than 6,000 Negrovoters who can be counted upon to stand loyalty by the Republican party in defence of their rights, no candidate need fear Cinder Bottom Sowers, his "gang" fighting paper or his Democratic backers. "Splendid majorities" will be given Republican candidates in McDowell county for some time after the stench of Cinder Bottom Sowers has left the noses of the decent people of Keystone and his paper has gone the way of all others started in this county to advocate great Democratic reforms. the newspaper man publishes him, primes the lawyer, condenses the crime, and pleads to the state through the attorney to help show around the life and pleads to better womanhood and manhood and they receive not a donkey. In politicians, running for office, public questions arise, the pay is wanted to be informed, the names are wanted to be explained and the only method by which may he safely do his by and through the public press. The candidate is plained to the skies, their virtues which they have any or not, are arrested by the press. The politician gets the office in money and the money, while the poor or newspaper man hardly gets pay for running their announcement. Why, to tell the truth, they won't pay for a single publication. Oh man, what kind of you owe us for The McDowell Times and you have never shown any disposition to pay me, yet you want all that's coming to you. We want you two-faced, ullo-celled, ecstatic, croused, you-sank, double-joint creatures to come and pay us. You know you have not paid arand yet you keep on looking for the paper. NORTHFORK M. E.
