The following cards relative to the
1 contest between Messrs. Hall and
: Meuner for county committeeman In
- Centre district are self-explanatory:
Mr. Metxner'i lut?mnit
To the Editor of the Intelligencer.
SIR:?The card in the Evening News
purporting to come from and to be slgnst
ed by me! Is entirely wrong and the lan;
guage attributed to me was not used.
> I simply called up- the paper over the
telephone and asked It to state that
tr; from information received my name
j~.' was itui pnnicu vS iuo i?v?\?=vo <? ?.<* [f
dldate for coupty executive committeeman
from Centre district, for the reasfe
son assigned by Mr. J. K. Hall that I
? was not regularly suggested at the
suggestion meeting, and I take this
method of informing my friends that I
| would see to It that my name would be
written thereon on the day of the prlmary.
/. W
I further wish to say that t have no
sty feeling against Mr. Hall. We have all:\
ways been personal friend* and we
; worked together for the Republican
cause for years pasr, and I hope that
we shall always continue friends in the
future, and will always support the
Republican ticket, notwithstanding our
present contest for a petty office.
E. R METZNER.
1 Wheeling. W. Va.. April 23.1896.
Mr. Ilftll'N tiUlrmriit.
I. To the Editor of the Intelligencer.
SIR:?Id a card written by Mr. Metsner
and Intended for publication In the
' Intelligencer, which card he has shown
ft me, he repudiates a card in the fivenL?
Ing News of this date, purporting to
come from hlra. There is thererore, no
occasion for a reply to that unauthor;
lied communication. Doubtless Mr.
Metzner will seek in his own way such
:s explanations as It Is possoble to make
, for signing a man's name to that which
f a newspaper desires him to say.
As to the matter in controversy, I
f:} . have this to say: The first intimation I
. had that Mr. Metzner was a candidate
S.s for election to the Republican county
fr : committtee from Centre district was
ft when I was Informed that Mr. S. G.
Smith, of the Evening News, a resident
? of Clay district, had said: "We have
fj a man to beat Hall witb-in Centre dls,
trict. We have got Ernest Metzner to
p make the race."
[ . I called at Mr. Metzner's office on
Tuesday morning last to know his lntp;
tentlon. He said that he would let me
know after he had seen some friends.
At 10:50 the same night I mot Mr. Metz-.
?v ner on the street and Insisted that he
v! must decide, as the tickets must go to
J press. Mr. Metzner replied that he
Tfould inform me by Wednesday noon,
*; sure. He did not notify me, nor did I
f know from him until last evening, after
- the News publication, that he had dejw
cided to run. Then I learned by call|>V'
Jog on him. Mr. Metznor up to last night
did not ask me, nor so far as I know, did
if ' he ask any other member of the comP
mlttee. to put his name on the ticket.
The suggestion meetings were held on
l; April 13. ten days ago. Mr. Metsuer
did not attend the suggestion meetings
in Centre district, nor was his name
pi suggested. Whether the committee
should put on the ticket name* not sent
to it from the suggesti m meetings it at
f least a question. Certainly the chairman
has no right to decide this qucs!
tlon for the committee, and if he placed
one man's name on the ticket a hundred
could have the same right to be placed
mI there.
To this minute the committee has recelved
no notice from Mr. Metzner that
iv he desires his name on the ticket. rtor
has any petition been received from any
l\' Republicans of the district asking that
f?'/ his name be put on. He has had from
the beginning the same chance that any
wi man has had whose name is on the tlck.
et. but he has not availed himself of It.
i>" Certainly neither the committee nor Its
s chairman can be held responsible for
K, this.
,t;./ ' I did not say that Mr. Metzner's
f? ' name Should not go on the ticket. I
held the tickets from the press until
'}' Wednesday afternoon to give him all
pOMlDie cnance iw inane Ills iciiucni,
which would have been presented to the
j! committee at once.
I.; I am free to any that I doubt the
if-':-. right of the committee to add to the
y suggestions as they oome from the Re:
publican* of the severaJ dlotrlotft. but
as Mr. MeUner desired to run against
er me I would have urged the committee
| to rule In his favor.
It Is -fair to Mr. Metsner to aay that
B he now Informs me that he expected
a friend to tell me on Wednesday that
f;: he would b? a candidate. Mr. Metzner's
oversight was in not riving the com[V
mittee due notice of his desire to have
% his name on the ticket
J. K. HALL.
Wheeling. W. Va.. April 23.1S96.
w P. S.?I have shown the above to Mr.
f Metrner and he tells me that It Is entirely
satisfactory to him.

i a'mOCK CONGRESS
*7 Onrtniud by the Ohio Comity Rrpnblt
rean Clwl>?The (Iflirtr*.
Lut evening the club's quarters In
r. the Odd Fellows'* building, corner
1 Twelfth and Chapllne streets, a meeting
of the Ohio County Republican Club
was held. There was a very good atj.
tendance of young Republicans, and the
veterans were not absent either. President
Bently Jones presided. Steps
Were taken to reorganise the mock legislature
that was so enjoyable a feature
of the club work two winters ago. After
aome discussion It was decided to have
a mock congress. These officials were
dhoeen:
> '. t Speaker of the house?Ale*. R. Campbell.
Ssrgeant?W. 12. McCullough.
Clerk?Frank Blond.
Assistant clerk?Charles Collier.
Leader of Republican side?Franklin
C. Holmes.
Lead#r of Democratic side?Bently
Jones.
Members of the house, from different
states, sre already stated and will bo
announced later. At the next meeting
of the club the mock congress will hold
a session extraordln/ipr and discuss a
motion of want of confidence In the
Democratic administration.
lie la it Live Candid*!*.
To the voters at the Republican primaries
In the First ward:
It was not my intention to say a word
to the public regarding my candidacy
L for school commissioner, deeming my
past services In that position n sufficient
guarantee for the discharge of my
duty if re-elected, and having only entered
upon this contest at tm* earnest
solicitation of the friends of the schools.
But, owing to the whispers that are being
lnsiduously disseminated all over
the ward that I am not In the field,
which Insinuations arc utterly false, I
deem It my duty to those good people
who desire to have me on the board of
education again, to assure them that I
am a live candidate, and will use all
honorable means to be nominated and
elsottd. c. f. ulrich.
ThelUjclMfr Condemned,
fc The B, B. Dovener Republican Club,
S * the Eighth ward, ban puaaed the folift
lowing resolution, which explains itaelf,
with the exception that the Register refused
to print th<* correction requested
by the club:
Resolved, That we, the members of the
B, B. Dovener Club of Ritchie district,
condemn the publication In the Wheeling
Register of Tuesday, April 14, regarding
the meeting held in our room, and regard
thse same as unjust to the members of
the club as well as to the gentleman for
whom the olub is named.

publicans which Is to be held to-morrow,
Is now at fever heat There have
been lively ante-primary contests
waged for several of the county nominations
during the past two months,
notably for the four leading positions
on the ticket Probably there Isn't a
candidate who is not glad that the hour
of electoraf decision Is at hand. There
has never before been a primary election
in this county In which nearly so
much Interest has been shown. This
will be demonstrated, probably, in a
heavy vote to-morrow.
According to the decision of the coun'ty
executive committee, the primary
tickets will be given out this
evening between 4:30 and 5
o'clock. They can be had by candidates
at the ofllce of the chairman of

a courier in needed to go out Caldwell's

desiring to take this route will
kindly call at this office this evening at

secured by a Bethany wheelman and
