A MEETING Of the Democratic ex-
ecutive committee Of the delegate dis
trict composed of the counties Of JEFF
ferson, Berkeley and Morgan was held
in Martinsburg on Monday, which was
attended also, upon invitation, by a
number Of leading Democrats from the
three counties named After a thor
ough discussion of the political situa-
ton the committee decided to test the
constitutionality of the law passed by
the last Legislature changing this dele
gate district. The old law provided
that the counties of jefferson, Berkeley
and Morgan should compose delegate
district, with four delegates, one Of
whom should be elected from Jefer-
son, one from Berkeley and two at
large. The law passed by the late
Legislature changed this so as to give
each county a delegate and one at
large. This last measure is believed
to be unconstitutional, and its validity
will be tested in the courts. In the
meantime the Democrats will make
nominations under the old law, that
is, one delegate each from Jefferson
and Berkeley and two at large from
the district.
The senatorial executive committee,
which was also represented at the con-
ference, will probably call for two
nominations for the State Senate, one
Senator to succeed Mr.. Getzendanner,
who is believed to have vacated the
Office by accepting place in the gov
eminent service.

WAR TO BE ToLDIN SERMON,

anu NnurcneS.
The war is to be taken into the pull
pit of Rock Island. That is to saw
the impending breach in our foreign
relations is to be the subject of min
isterial discourse in at least two local
churches next Sunday. and perhaps
more. At the First Baptist church
next Sunday evening Rev DIR. c. f.
Taylor, the pastor. has announced his
purpose to preach on the following
topic: The Impending Crisis or the
War in Cuba. America, the Free Re-
public. The Good Samaritan Among
the Nations. After Generation of
Peace-War-How 1t May Change the
Map of the Nations. The Youngest
Nation the Leader in a War in the In
terest of Oppressed Humanity
a patriotic service will DE held at
the First Methodist church Sunday
evening. There will be addresses by
f. ID. Sweeney and c. j. Searle.
Rev. c. o. McCulloch. announcing the
meeting says: 1T will be held for
the expression and cultivation of pa
triotism. We most cordially invite
the general public. We particularly
desire the presence of the patriotic
orders. We express the hope that
they may be able to attend
as organizations. Yet if they be una
bic to so attend. we trust they NAV
see their way clear to attend as indi-
viduals. This is the cause of human
ity, as well as of patriotism. A great
and Misunderstanding nation. having
borne until its burden became insult
ferable. insists that blood-thirstv
robber and high-handed plunderer
shall get off of the victim he has been
so long attempting to plumber and de-
stroy. Involved as we are in war
against our will. we must not falter
in following our national standard on
sea and land, in person or by our
prayers and sympathy until the OBJ
ject for which we have volunteered
our treasures and lives has been tri-
umphantly secured. And while the
nation calls to arms we must not for
get that hearts are bleeding in our
city because those who are dear to
them have heard and obeyed the call
of duty in this trying hour. Then let
us meet and thus help to crystalize
those sentiments which are right and
proper for a civilized and christian
people to entertain toward the nation
and the homes of the city in which
there is a vacant chair
