1t may be that the Judge saw it in
this way and as the Mat says so it
must hr so; but somehow, Kanawha
county being largely Republican, we
can but suspect that the pcrfdy
and imhCCility" Of the Democracy
were seen through the Judges desire
to hold office aud thus become largely
magniticd. Brother Floyd, the dis

similar experience with an awak

could find no relief from its stings
until this same manhood and in

he had come over in search of tn,

THE resources of West Virginia
may be considered illimitable. Out
OF titty-tive counties of the State
there are only three in which coal
has not been found; there ia coal
enough in the mountains of the
state to supply not only the United
states, but the world, for centuries.
About three fourths Of the area of
the State is covered with forests OF
black spruce, white pine, poplar,
walnut, white oak, cherry and ma,
pie, and one of the largest bodies OF
hardwood timber in the United
States is untouched by the AK. The
oil belt extends two hundred miles

growing sentiment in those countries
in favor Of bimetallism. In Ger
