Hard to Believe.

The uttefances attributed to General
Miles in a special dispatch originally
published In the Kansas City star, from
Ponce. Puerto Rico, are astounding
enough to demand proof that they are
genuine What General Miles Is quoted
as saying concerning the war depart
ment officials and his own position at
Santiago during the campaign, is en-
tlrely at variance with what he has
been quoted as saying on former occa-
slons.
The correspondent Of the Kansas city
paper places General Miles in the light
of claiming that he was in actual COM
mand OF the forces at Santiago, in spite
of the statements to the contrary at the
time. some Of them by himself. and yet
he is pictured as fixing the blame for all
the abuses there. which led to so much
suffering and disease among the troops
upon General shafter. The point is, II
General Miles was present In his ca
pacity as general-ln-chiet, and was IN
actual command, why should he hold
shafter responsible for the cause of any
complaints that have been made?
The public Will be slow to believe that
General Miles has been correctly report
ed. There seems to be some misunder-
standings. IL not actual personal feel
ings. growing out OF the Santiago cam
palgn which will have to be adjusted
officially in some way. In the mean
time the public will do-well to suspend
Judgment until the real facts develop.
Beyond a doubt the whole matter will
be made clear in some way before long,
and all responsibilities will be properly
flxed.

Chairman Daw,on's Remark.


Chairman Dawson. OF the Republican
state committee. and secretary of state.
Is quoted as saying, when asked as to
the political outlook in West Virginia:
1--WE are going to win, because we de-
serve to win. We deserve to win be-
cause the national and state adminls-
tratlon1 have been faithful to their
trusts. They have served the people
faithfully and honestly. 1 think know
something of the political history of this
state, and say emphatically that the
state has never had a more faithful,
conscientious and economical admins
tratlon than the present one"
1t is a matter of fact, confirming Mr..
Dawson's assertion. that the conduct
of the state offices has been With view
to guarding the states interests from an
economical standpoint, and the laws
have been executed faithfully and hon
estly. Reports of the various state off,
GERS, when presented to the public, will
bear this out, Few men in the state
are more familiar with the past legisIa-
tive history OF West Virginia and the
atEairs OF the government OF the state
than Secretary Of state Lawson. He
is capable Of making comparisons. and
they are very likely to De made from
the official records.

A characteristic of Democratic county
conventions in this state this year is the
red hot temperature which prevails as
q rule. This is particularly true in the
larger counties. A few days since Ka-
nawha county witnessed a turbulent
convention in which chairs figured as
weapons, and in Wood county, on Tues
day of this week, 1t is recorded that fac
tIonal bitterness held sway to such an
extent that a remarkably weak ticket
resulted. The trouble grew out OF the
turning down of Parkersburg Demo-
Gratis by the country districts and the
city bosses are IN state OF mind over

The comments that are being made

cessful administration of the state de-
partment by Secretary Of State Day, as
vindicatlng the judgment in selecting
MIN liver the criticisms Of those who
didn't know Judge Day quite as well as
the President did, have given rise to
further comments concerning the man
ner in which the distribution OF the most
important diplomatic places has been
made.
1t is matter of common comment
among conservative Democratic papers
and statesmen, as well'as by the Presl-
dents own party friends and support
ers, that in the selection OF the diplo-
matte representatives of this country to
the great European powers he has act
ed solely with view of sending abroad
men of the highest merit, and who have
been in the past not SO much noted for
their abilities as political leaders as for
their attachments and knowledge Of
diplomacy. The official records have,
in every instance, borne out the wisdom
OF their choice and Mr.. Mckinley has
been successful in meeting the public
expectations in every case. This ap-
plies throughout the diplomatic and con-
buIar service generally.

Ambassador John Hay from England
to washington, to succeed Mr.. Day as
secretary Of state the Washington Star

the admirable manner in which the
President has managed the leading dip
Iomatic patronage" The Star recalls
that while the names of many accom-

Yinley as proper for the ambassador

whose sole recommendation was not po-
iiticai leadership, but his excellent
