WILSON HOLDS THE OFFICE.

Decision of the West virginia Supreme
Court In the Goff-Adams Contest.
CUARLEsrows, w. Va, March 12.-The
supreme court this morning decided In the
Goh. Wilson gubernatorial mandamus case
that Gov. Wilson Is entitled TO hold over
until the contest between Fleming. and
Gof Ia settled TO the seat, on the ground
that the returns have not been declared by
the legislature. The fight will now be be-
tween Wilson and Carr on the quo war
ranto proceeding.
The opinion OF the court was In no sense
q surprise 10 anybody, both republicans
and democrats anticipating the action OF
the court. An interesting phase OF the
situation and which Ia much commented
upon this evening 10 that Gov. Wilson has
the situation fully under his own control
at present, except so far as he may be
bothered by legal proceedings Instituted
by President Carr. BY falling 10 call the
legislature together Wilson will remain at
the helm indefinitely or until the action OF
a new legislature, and is thus enabled to
thoroughly protect the claims Of Judge
Fleming against General Goff; In other
words, In GOf has a case Wilson, by refus
ing 10 call the legislature, can keep him
out for two years 10 come, unless the fed
eral authorities interfere. The Carr pro-
cee1ings will be- taken up at once by the
court, but when an opinion will be had Is
very uncertain.

The features are the same;
But OH the smile is out of them
And must be 10 blame.

With her the other day
To meet a long missed friend, and VII r

Her confidence in waiting love
Brought bsck for me TO see.
That old time love light 10 her eyes
That win not shine for me-

They say might have fame

As others like those same.
But care not for what have,
Nor lust for what lack

To call that lost light back
Come back. dear banished smile, come back
And into exile drive

With soft and soothing number,
For the day has no right to be 50 long,
And keep my baby from slumber.

Like angels over you,
