THE DANGER AHEAD.

y
That West Virginia is safely
Republican isl question beyond
a doubt. Yet there are forces
at work that makes the situation
one of danger during an of year.
These forces should be clearly
understood by the voters of the
party, SO that. like all dangers,
they can be met and overcome.
Over.confdence which ergenders
apathy and makes stay-at- home
voters, is the most dangerous
condition into which any party
can drift. Success, with its dis.
tribution of Offices, is another, as
it is impossible to give an Office
to every seeker, no matter how
worthy or honest. Factions within
counties, districts, State and ma.
ton is perhaps as dangerous as
over confidence. These should
be healed and personal differences
sunk for the welfare Of the party
and its principles. Another
danger lies in the fact that in
West Virginia a successor to
Senator Faulkner is to be elected
by next January's legislature and
two years hence q successor to
Senator Elkins. State Senators
elected this year will vote at both
elections. Hence it is of vital
Importance that the legislature
is carried this fall by the Re-
publicans. There are, as usual,
many of the best men of the par
ty with Senatorial aspirations.
These gentlemen as well as the
State leaders and the voters
should remember that the most
important thing is first to carry
the legislature. Its political com.
pletion is not beyond q question
Of a doubt. But the Republicans
can make it SO. Nowls the time
to commence. Close up ranks.
heal up differences wherever
they may exist, organize and
win. The Democratic party is
an old one. Its fighting record
is good, and like the coon it fights
better when fat on its back

to whom the knowledge of it has
come, the judicial committee, to
which was referred, the task OF
formulating the finding and YER

with to say to all concerned. that
the meaning and purport of the

of it which is in question The

WEST virginia
Has Made More Progress man AM otAsr
State h The unlon says Gov. Atkinson:

West Virginia now has d popu-
lation of about 1000. 900. No
State in the Onion has made
more rapid progress than has
West Virginia, It's natural re-
sources are phenoninal. Last
yearit produced 100000 tons
OF coal, 1 900, 600 tonsof coke ana
100000, 600 gallons oiwhite sand
oil, the highest grade petroleum
which is bbtainsble. 1t is now
the second State ID coke, the
third in coal and the fourth in
oil.
ut is not true that West vir.
gina coal miners are working
below scale rates, They make
more money than the miners Of
any State in, the Union, because
they have better natural facili.
ties. TIE coal veins OF West
Virginia are more easily worked
than those of any other State. It
is, between the States, IN the
matter of coal, simply the sur.
vival OF the tittest. Wherever
West Virginia coal IA introduced
q Z
itstays. 1t is the best steam
producing coal in the world. The
best evidence OF this lies in the
fact that at Norfolk last week the
British navy bought 10000 tons
ofWest Virginia coal for Its war
ships, Geological surveys show
that there are 60 feet of coal UNI
derlying the surface lands Of
West Virginia.
The veins average from 20
feet in thickness down to 10 feet
and below the water level there
are three or four more veins,
which have been discovered in
boring for oil, and which will be.
mined after the higher veins are
exhausted. No State has suck

it, i'll left her, or tried to inform
any one about her. All my eff
forts to get her to return to her
home with me, or to take her to
her relatives were of no avail.
And it was not until the second
morning that l could induce her
to promise to return to her rela-
tives.
She then said Il have come
out of my spell of insanity, and
see clearly what I ought to do,
and will take the best care of
myself" She also expressed her
gratitude to me, saying Mr..
White, you have been so kind
and good to me- The two nights
1 was with her, / watched her
and cared for her just as broth
er would have done, having the
utmost confidence in her pure and
virtuous character. And had /
not a clear conscience in this re-
gard, I never could have lived
through the terrible ordeal which
has come upon me.
In the record of Presbytery,
the second registering is worded:
son an other occasion" There
was no other occasion, except
the night following the first, and
that is what Presbytery meant.
On that night, all the conditions
remaining unchanged, register
ed as stated. Also, in that re-
cord, the denial of immoral con-
duct is not placed so as to include
both nights, as it should have
been. The committee OF Pres
bytery, as IN an explanatory note
published here, sets forthits cor
rection of these errors. In the
absence of any other witness, l
haye thought best to refrain
from any further explanation.
OF course there is room to cavil
for those who would like to doubt.
But God knows this is the truth
of the matter. He also knows
my sorrow and contritlon for
every wrong I have done al
though unintentionally. He al
ways judges Alright, andby Him
actions are weighed.

Rev. 6hdS. Whlt6
Makes a Statement Over His Own Sig.
nature.

am we'll aware that the long
suffering public has had enough
! Of my affairs within the past
four months. But think it will
also testify that / have never yet
written word in explanation of
the sad affair with which ] have
been connected. l was fully de-
termined the first of last June to
call my church people to gether
and give them q full explanation
Of everything. But I was strong
ly advised against doing so. for
fear it would make a division in
the church. / would still keep
silent, we're it not for the fact
that friends here and elsewhere
most urgently demand that, after
waiting so long, at least, for my
statement before the Presbytery,
be made known. In my state
ment before that body I confess
ed to two things: ~ Indiscre-
TONS ~ An an act OF immor-
atty, which consisted solely in
registering as ] did. This com
prised the whole of my statement
at that time, whatever else may
have been reported.
Under the head of indiscretions
which extended only over a
period of about five or six months
it should be known that they
consisted in six interviews which
had alone with Miss Holmes,
and in a couple of notes written
to her at times when she seemed
greatly perplexed and troubled.
With reference to these inter-
views, three of them we're at the
residence of her parents, as she
had sent me word each time,
asking me to come there and
help here in practicing some
church music. The other three
were in my study at the church,
and we're entirely without any
appointment, or pre.arrangemen'
by me.
Under the second head, the
word immortality" in my con-
fession, applies to nothing more
than the way i registered, and
should be qualified so as to be
clearly understood by all.
The act of so registering IS
generally understood to be done To-,
for an immoral purpose, The
right or wrong, of such an act
however, depends on the mot'Ve
with which it is done. l, my
self, so acted with no other mo.
tive, or intention, than that OF
saving a life. 1 went to Pitts.
burg on business for myself, ana
met her there as / had promised
ather own request. found her
possessed of the idea of taking
her life which she had often be-
fore expressed 81 desire to 40.
With her in such a state OF
mind, 1 pursued the only course
which occurred to me at the Tune
would prevent her dong So as
she threatened constantly to ena
