she had gone from him forever. He

there was cause for her altered looks

Of man who invariably judges every

out good deal more than was neces-

him did neither of these things made
no difference to David's conception Of
him. He had stolen Dorothy from

David endow him in his own mind with
all the most hateful attributes Of his
detestable class.
Nor did he even stop to consider that
he was distinctly unjust in credlting
Harris with stealing Dorothys love
from him. For it is impossible to steal
from any man what that man had
never had to lose, and most emphati-
cally he had never possessed one little
tiny corner of Dorothy Strode's heart;

commander of the Grand Army of the

in this city for the executive committee

cuss President McKinley's suggestion

NO COMPROMISE WITH FRAUD.
The Charles Town Free Press saws

The Richie Gazette suggests the fol-
lowing as method of solving a difficult
problem:
The State Senate has the key to the sit
uation. Let it have nothing to do with d
stolen House of Delegates but let it rec
ognlze the thirty,five Republicans who
We're elected and If the necessity arises as
herein indicated, act with them and with
them alone
Well now. Judge Morris. suppose the
House resolves to have nothing to do with
a stolen senate but should recognize those
Senators it believes were truly elected
and unites with them in legislation, what
are YOU going to do about it?
The Register would inform its es-
teemed Charles Town friend that
this is just what the conspirators
want, for they have the executive on
their side willing and anxious to do
their bidding, since he labors under
the delusion he can be elected United
States Senator by such revolutionary
means. Moreover, a Republican United
States Senate would probably not be
squeamish in recognizing a Republi-
can Senator elected by such lawless
proceedings.
The Democracy will not attempt to
meet the conspirators on their own
ground. The Democrats will recognize
the law, and abide by it. They can
only be defrauded of their just and
legal rights by revolution and treason.
If these shall succeed, if the law and

WILD AND FOOLISH TALK.

diTIHODC INDEX.
The Attorney General of the State
the highest law officer in it, counsels
the Governor to commit a most fla
, grant violation of all the forms of law.
He says:
IF 1 We're Governor l would not permit
Logan to take a seat in the Legislature,
even if it should become necessary to use
military force to prevent him from enter
ing the capitol"
Well may the people wonder what
kind of men have been elected to Office
in West Virginia when the anarchistic
declarations of the Governor and Sec
rotary of State are followed by such
statement as this from the Attorney
General. Impeachment articles might
have wholesome effect in curbing
the incendiary declarations of some of
these executive officers who are incit-
ing to riot and tumult by their inflam-
matory appeals to force. Their own
sense of propriety and a decent regard
for the dignity of the positions they
occupy seem to have but little re-
straining power. Perhaps the Attor-
ney General is enough of a lawyer to
know that should the Governor at
cempt by force to prevent any mem
Der of the Legislature from entering
the capitol who has a certificate from
his county board of canvassers, and if
in the disturbance which would surely
follow such attempt, riot and blood
shed should ensue, the Governor and
his aiders and abettors would have
to answer for their part in the infrac-
ton of the law which brought about
such deplorable result The Governor
will go beyond the pale of his author
ity and entirely beyond the scope of
his lawful duties when he interferes
in the slightest degree with the mem
bers of the Legislature, and when ne
does that he becomes as justly amen
able to the laws against violence and
disorder as the humblest citizen of the
State. He has no immunity for vio- |
lations of the law or breaches of the
peace, and the decisions of the courts
in the Haymarket cases was that one
need not actually participate in a riot
to become accessory to its results.
This is still country of law, and not
the very in6iscreet and
almost criminal declarations OF these |
officers, we think their bet
er judgment will assert itself in time |
or them to conclude that these vari- |
JUS legislative contests can only be
egally determined in one way, and |
hat the. way. in which the constitution |
md law provide.

Washington, d. c., December 16.-
Senator Elkins is interested in a bill
to altogether prohibit foreign built
vessels wrecked on American shores
and bought and repaired by Americans
from admission to American registry
for the coasting trade. Under the
present antiquated navigation laws of
the United States, under which Amer
lean shipping has been well nigh driven
off the seas, foreign built vessels
wrecked on our shores and repaired in
this country may engage in the coast
Ing trade II the cost of the repairs is
equivalent to ,three-fourths the total
value of the vessel. The bill which
Senator Elkins is trying to push
through the Senate, however, proposes
to deny the privilege of register to
such ships except for the foreign trade.
the intention being to further protect
the domestic shipbuilding industry.
The measure was correctly described
by Senator Gallery the other day as a
further backward turn in our ship
ping policy"
Senator Elkins has introduced a bill
for the relief of W. D. Catlett, which
was referred to the committee on
claims.
