upon Hileman tried hard TO ge'
bondsmau, but seeming to be the
wrong kind of man, failed. See
ing that he would have to go to Jail,
he watched his chance, and in an
unguarded moment, made bold
break for life, liberty and the pur-
suit Of happiness, all of which is
supposed TO be guaranteed by the
constitution. The officers, however,
joined in the pursuit, but he would
probably have made good his escape
except for big dog that took in
the situation, and also took in Hile-
man, by overtaklng him and freeing
him until the officers came mp and
captured him. Thereupon Squire
Strahin ordered him to Jail and de-
tailed three men to accompany him
to the Hotel De jackson at King
wood. Hileman was put on an old
biiith iiOl oNJ oilu Will iliS ndnub Jltu
and so the procession started for
Kingwood. The possee, thinking
that their prisoner, with his hands
tied and on an old blind horse,
couldn't get away, did not watch
very closely. The sprisoner was
watching his opportunity and revol-
wing IN his mind that Gle who
steals and runs away, may live to
steal another day" So in coming
through the woods IIileman got
ahead and all ut once started out in
great shape, the old horse seeming
to be in sympathy with it's rider and
making about the best time on rec
ord, leaving the officers away behind.
When out of sight the prisoner took
to the woods and has not been seen
or heard of since. While Justice
was blind in this case she (the
horse) failed to get there, and al
though Hileman started out to chop
his way into Jail he seemed very UNI
willing to ride there.

THE Extra Session Of the Leris-
lature adjourned Wednesday Of last
week, after being in session forty
three days. Two days more and
they would have used up the consti-
tutional limit, as it only provides
for a forty five day siege at one
time. Our SO Ions probably thought
best to give themselves at least two
days grace, for if they had held on
till the time was mp and they were
compelled to let go. people would
never have believed but what they
would have held on for a year and
day, or perhaps for ever and aye.
if there was no power to shut them
off. Well, well, sometimes we
should be thankful that there il an
end TO ali things.

A SAMPLE REPUBLICAN HOWL

One of the most important acts
passing the legislature was one COM
pelling railroad companies TO post
notices at all stations Of trains not
on schedule time, but the Fraud in
the governors chair vetoed it.-Era.
In making the above statement
our esteemed contemporary, of the
Era, is either ignorant of the true
state of affairs himself, or else
thinks everybody else is. 1t is true
that bill like this did pass the
legislature and it was very good
bill and we would like to see it be-
come law. It's Furthermore true
that the governor vetoed it, rs he
was in duty bound to do, for the
constitution specially provides that
at an extra session no business shall
be attended to, except such as has
been enumerated in the call of the
Governor converting it, and this
matter was not included in Gov.
Wilson's proclamation for the extra
session so 1T would have been un-
constitutional and could not have
become q law anyhow.

THE BOUNDARY LINE.

The bill introduced in the Legis-
lature by Senator Morley, to settle
the disputed boundary line between
this State and Maryland, by arbi-
tration, Is i'll the light of a compro-
mise, and will not insure q speedy
settlement of this long standing and
very veXatious matter. We do not
believe that West Virginia should
make any more concessions or give
up any part of the Disputed territory.
The question of the boundary line
should have been settled long ago.
and the people who occupy the dis
puted territory protected IN their
rights. We believe the proper way
to settle this business quickly and
ctfectually, would be for our State
to take the bull by the horns, and
force an issue, 10y instituting suit
in the Federal Court for possession
Of the disputed territory. Let the
Attorney General Of this State
enter suit in the United States
Court against the State of Maryland
for the recovery Of this strip Of our
territory, and a settlement Of this
boundary line. The matter would
probably boappoaled to the Supreme
Court Of the United States. where
q final settlement would be made
and the question disposed Of once
and for all, aud we think IL viii
come to this in the end. This is
not merely local matter to be set
tied by Garrett County, Md. or
Preston County, this State. The
action Of our Legislature i'm Offering
% settlement by arbitration. has been
communicated to the Legislature Of
Maryland, and is now awaiting the
action Of that body.

DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE.

We desire to call the special at
tentiOn Of our readers to our an
nouncement of the National Demo-
craf, in another column. 1t is Just
what its name indicates, the organ
of the national democracy and
should be read by every democrat
in the land. AS it is published at
the national capital, it's report of
congressional proceedings and all
affairs pertaining to the national
government is more complete and
nearer correct than any paper pub
lished. The subscription price is
$3.50 per year, and the price of the
ARGUS is $3.50, we will send both
for 1926, cash in advance. To our
patrons who have already paid
ahead for the ARGUS, we will send
the National Democrat one year for
one dollar. We have made arrange
ments with the publishers of the
democrat to send sample copies to
most Of our subscribers, and hope
they will decide to take advantage
of the very liberal terms we o|er.
If you do not receive a copy of the
Democrat, send your name on a
postal card and get sample copy.

GOV. FLEMING has appointed
State Senator B. IL. 0xley, of Lin
coin County, to be Adjutant General
and Librarian. Mr.. Oxley has
served four years in the State Sem
ate with marked ability and been a
faithful worker for the party. The
appointment is very good one, and
gives general satisfaction, as do all
the Governors appointments SO far.

Now that the Republicans have
had their meetings of the State
League of clubs and are getting down
to work in earnest already for the
coming campaign, will some one be
kind enough to inform us what has
become Of the State League of DEM
ocratic Clubs? We remember very
we'll attending large and enthusi-
astic meeting Of this kind in Wheel
ing during the summer of 88,when
the campaign waxed warmest, but
this league seems to be about a
league away now. 1t may have gone
south to spend the winter. We are
only asking for information, and
don't want the republican league to
get such start on us that we VIII
come out a league behind.

The Rev. George w. Atkinson,
of the First West Virginia District,
was elected to Congress by the re-
publican members of that body last
week. At the election by the peo-
pie, of the people and for the people
he failed to make connections, but
the present republican congress has
very handy way of helping a
brother would be-member, when he
fails in his race before the people.

unseated member comes home to

make arrangements for the funeral

Since Ohio and Iowa went demo

Mr.. Brown has been at the helm of

"OUR FRIENDS, THE ENEMY

The present administration was
elected as the special champion Of
the soldier, President Harrison him
self being an old soldier. RepubH-
can stump speakers throughout the
length and breadth Of the land
made special appeal to the old
soldiers, and promised them the
earth and the fullness thereof if they
would vote the republican ticket.
The radical press wept crocodile
tears over the poor old soldiers who
were in poor houses and sinking
into pauper graves, and promised to
divide the surplus out among them
if they would stand by the g. o. p.
etc. Now that the Republican par
ty has again complete control of the
government, a President, Vice
President and both houses of con-
gross, 30 that it can inaugurate any
reform it wants to reform or revise
the tariff as they promised proceed
with such pension legislation as may
be necessary to carry out their
promises to the soldiers, and in
fact produce peace, prosperity and
general satisfaction on all sides. will
some one who is posted please rise
and tell us what has been done the
past year toward bringing about this
promised millennium ? Will some
old soldier please examine the rec
ords Of the pension Office and report
to us whether this pension matter is
being attended to any faster than
under the "free-trade rebel demo-
crat administration of Cleveland ?v
Remember, we want facts and fig
ures. We don't want the bloody
shirt waved in our face nor the war
fought over again. Will some dearly
beloved republican brother please
let It's know how much more he is
getting for his farm products now,
than under Cleveland's administra-
ton Will some laboring man send
word to this Office about the plenty
of work and good wages he is re-
ceiying now? Will some working
man please telephone this Office
about the beefsteak three times
day that was promised him during
the last campaign a? Will some wool
grower quote US the prices he got
for his wool last year and let IA
know what he wants for his wool
this yesr? The Republican party
has complete control Of the national
government. What is it doing for
the good Of the country ? viii il
make good its promises made in the
last campaign If it don't what
excuse can it offer? The old SOL
dIcrs know this and are waiting and
watching. The workingman sees
The situation and is awaiting devol-
opments. The farmer knows how
the machine is running and is
closely watching for results. So il
nothing is done and times do not
get any better, a fool cannot err as
to whore to-place the blame. Then
how win the z. o. p. dare to come
before the people and ask 10 be re-
tanned iu power? Since the rcpub-
licens have the presidency and sen.
ate, we are glad they have the lower
house also. 10 gives them every
opportunity to fulfil their promis-
es and fastcns the blame directly
upon them II they do not.
