good WORDS FOR FAULKNER.
Pioneer Press (Republican).
1: is undo stood that Senator Faulkner,
of West Virginia, will r.ot stand for ve
ehctlou. even if the Democrats should
<■' 'rol the Legislature of West Virginia.
Senator Faulkner has cut no figure in
th< United States Senate. His father was
a man of considerable ability. The pres
ent United 8t:itcs Senator is the son of
hi., father, and but for that, we suppose,
would never have been dreamed of for
Si natorinl timber.—Norfolk (Vn.) Re
corder.
S ' or Faulkner may have his peculiar
!•> lit.cal ideas and may put or. foot some
. etionable methods, but he Is a thor
. h gen:! man. a scholar, an able lawyer
and mad‘ one of the best Judges the Thir
t* nth judicial circuit ever had.
To a friend he is true, and in every
sense of the word is the equal of his
father, nr.d In some things his superior.
We differ from him politically, but :id
n:ir him as a gentleman, and fair to all
alike, on general business principles.
Having lived in this city, his home, and
having had all kinds of business relations
v.ith him, we know whereof we speak.
S >. Mr. Recorder, you’d better know the
man.

CLARKSBURG BRIDGE AND RAII^
ROAD.
Register.
Clarksburg, W. Va., May 24. One of
the most exciting contests in Clarks
burg was the establishing of the grade
of the new extension of Fourth street,
leading to the new Baltimore & Ohio
railroad. The question has been dis-v
cussed, and for same time under con
sideration by the Council. It was a par
ticularly interesting question in as
much as there is a project to bridge
Elk Creek near the points where the
route of the proposed Short Line rail
road is located. Consequently these
respective in ?rests seemed opposed to
each othei I »e Council, however,
has established a grade for the street,
less than five degrees, whereby the pro
posed level of the bridge bed of the
road dropped down two feet, gives a
clearance of nineteen feet, and what is
termed an overhead crossing, so that
the ears etc., can pass under the bridge. |
