20 Buenos Ayros by President McKin-
ley. he appointment of DIR. PsJna
uOon the b lsrd of regents bestows
greater hOnors upon him as well as he
ing beneficial TO his people, therefore
we eoncede the appointment by the
Governor was a wis3 one. Dotwith-

higher recognition than this owing to
his valu able services rendered during
the recent hot campaign, but we are
lad TO note that the President is not
forgetting West Va. He deeply be
lieves in the doctrine To ih- victor

Numbering the state.
