neglected for three sessions. They
should remember that they have a
duty to perform in addition to draw

duty needs not only personal atten-

immediate constituents specially.

While the Democrats have sue
ceeded in the West Virginia legisla-
ture, their Republican brethren at
Washington have also been making
the fur fly in the House of Repre-
sentatives. The Republican MAORI
tv, in the contest between Mr.. Smith
and Mr.. Jackson, of Parkersburg,
by strict party vote Of l66. gave
the seat to the contestant,
Mr.. Jackson, after drawing the
pay for nearly a year, finds
himself once more private citizen.
The Democrats refused to vote on
the final issue, so that any personal
test of their opinion on the evidence
was no. indicated; and therefore, they
cannot be confronted with the re-
cord as to any act, except that of
omission, in failing to make their
conviction known, as representatives
of their various constituencies.
