ADJuTANT Gen. B. H. Oxley
is one of those Democrats who
can talk calmly about the late
disastrous rout of his party. In
an interview recently he says
The claim that the Republi-
cans won by money in West vir.
ginia is not true. There was
little money spent in the last
campaign by either side, though
both sides spentsome. The peo-
pie were disguised with the par
ty, and took their ballots to tell
it. Now, if the landslide had not
been so general, and West Vlr-
gina had gone Republican. then
it might have been attributed to
money, but under existing cir
cumstances that can hardly be
true. You know some evidence
of hard times counts more than
800 in money with the voters.
They believe what they see. l
don't think the sweep will affect
the party permanently in our
State, but there is this about it.
You know the people always
want to be on the winning side,
and If they think the next cleo
ton in West Virginia will be a
