MogGANTowN VIRGINIA. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER IS 1897
Extra session of the Legislature

1t is said that those who advocate
an extaa session of the legislature
have almost asufficient number of sig
natures to carry out their desire.
The wisdom Of an extra session at
this time is vers doubtful. The
best evidence Of this fact il AT = -
judging from the expression of the
press of the state, which presumably
fairly reflects public opinion, the SEN
timent isnot all favorable to the prop
Osition.
Republicans throughout the state
are free to say that special session
involving great expense, would be
unwise from political standpoint.
This objection, however, is not a
strong one, if il can be shown that
an extra session is a necessity, as its
advocates claim it is. 1t may be
said upon their behalf that should no
session be held TO consider the report
OF the constitutional revision COM
mission, the time of the commission
would be wasted and the purpose of
the legislature in providing for the
revision would be defeated.
This seems to be strong argu-
ment and about the only one in favor
OF the extra session. But il should
be remembered that the fate of the
work OF the constitutional commits
sion, which seems to have been well
done, would not be settled by its
mere adoption by the legisla ture.
After that must come the ratification
OF the amendments by the people.
Should the people reject them, Their
would come the reaction on the par
ty that is responsible for the commits
SION, extra session and all
The Intelligencer does not say that
the amendment would be defeated,
and it confesses that this point is not
the strongest one that could be made,
but it must be borne in mind that
there has been no popular demand for
a special session to consider them,
and there has been in fact very small
interest on the part of the public in
the matter The greatest interest
seems to be among the members of
the legislature themselves. 1t may
be that they know the sentiment of
their constituents better than the
newspapers do, and if they call them
selves together, will be sustained by
the public. There is. however, moth
ing in the atmosphere that indicates
this, as desirable as most OF the
prepared bv the commits
sion are.
The Intelligencer reflects in no
way upon the commission and its
work. 1t performed the work dele,
gated 20 it faithfully and well, and
at least a greater part of that work
would be of benefit to the state if
accepted. That fact is not involved,
however, in the mere question of the
wisdom of an extra session of the
legislature this winter.-Intelligen-

Governor Atkinson has returned
from Morgantown, where he went to
attend meeting of the State Geo
logical Commission created by the
last legislature and is very enthusias-
tic over the auspicious beginning OF
the work of the commission. Ii has
been fortunate in securing DR.. |. c.
White, the well known geologist, for
merly professor OF geology at th.
West Virginia University to direct
the survey which it is proposed to
make and general supervision of the
work of the commission. He has
been given the title OF State Geolo-
gist. DR.. White is by far the best
posted geOlogist in the State and the
best fitted person for The work in view
who could have been secured. Almost
his entire life has been devoted TO
geological study and research and the
greater portion of il in West Virginia
He has assisted the United States
government in its geological work
and prepared about twenty-five large
volumes for the Pennsylvania State
Geological survey some years ago.
He has been through this entire
State and has field notes on the
greater part of it, enough already
prepared to print several large vol
umes Of the report.
DIR. White has been for some time
In correspondence with the director
OF the United States geological sur
vey in regard to the location of the
true meridian at each county seat in
the State, which, under the law
creating it, the commission was to
do. The expense of doing this would
under ordinary circumstances have
been considerable, a contract having
at first been entered into to have the
word done for $50, 90. Prof. White
has made arrangements with the
United States Geological Survey to
do this work for $500, the government
bearing all the rest of the expense.
Because Of the limited appropri-
alton there will be little actual field
work done for some time. but Dr.
White has promised to draw upon
his own private note book, which
con tains valuable data on the geolog
ical formations of most every county
for such data as is necessary to make |
up the bulletins which viii be issued |
from time to time.
Bulletins will not be issued as rap
idly now as the commission would |
like to issue them because of the linn |
tied amount Of money appropriated |
for theis use, but it is their intention |
as soon as possible to issue frequent
bulletins and full series of reports. |
One of the first things the board |
expects to do is to prepare a new and |
correct map of the state, the test map
now in use not being correct by any
means. A survey of each county of |

FIRST DEG Rec.
Frank WoIcott was found Guilty by the
Jury He will get Life Sentence,

The Frank Walcott case at Hun
tington has been decided and the
accused will spend the balance of his
life behind the bars The jury have
found him guilty of murder in the
first degree and have recommended
him to the mercy of the court. This
means that he will receive a life SEN
tenee to the penitentiary.
The case has been stnbbornly
fought one and has attracted great
zeal OF attention here as the muir
4ered man vas formerly resident
% this place and was quite well
known here. The murder was an
entirely unprovoked one and aroused
the greatest excitement in Hunting
ton. Walcott came upto Webb who
was standing peaceahiy on the street
and without a word pulled gun
and shot him down. Webb died al
most instantly and Walcott's ar
rest followed at once. His attorneys
attempted to show that he was in
sane when the deed was committed.
Nearly every physician in the county
was summoned in the case, thirty of
the sixty witnesses being physicians.
1t was thought that he would get q
much lighter sentence There is
but little doubt that he got Justice
however.

by local applications as they cannot

There is only one way to cure Deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflame1 condition Of the mucous lin
ing of tbs Eustachian Tube. When
this tubs gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
