has favored the governors position, and
all have agreed that no is not in line with
public sentiment in West Virginia The
Republican papers that support the gov

in head lines ask If he justifles and favors
murder on tho part OF people who have
grievances that courts can settle.
Amongi thinking people and lawyers
especially tho governor utterances are
denounced as unwise and unpolitic, no
matter what his private feelings may be.
| There have been few men found in the
state who are willing TO subscribe TO the
