LEFT UNFINISHED
Dam Number Ten Not TO Be
Closed this Fall.

One Section is Already Completed and
Another One will be Finished But
the Center one win be Left Open
Lock is Done and Ready for Gates
When Dam is Completed.
Engineer Barr who has charge of
the local river Improvements is back
from a trip to Preston county where
he went TO select and inspect some
timbers to be used in the construction
of the lock across the river. He states
that he found some OF the best timber
that he ever saw. 1t is absolutely AS
fne as 1t can be is the way he sums tt
up. This timber was found out the
Evansville road which he claims is
equal to the best found in Allegheny
county, Pa.
When asked about the progress of
the work on the lock he stated that it
was going very satisfactorily but that
the dam portion would not be COM
pleted and closed up this fall The
lock IL finished and is now ready for
the gates to be placed. They Will
not be put In however until next year
when the dam will be closed up.
One section of the dam, that on
the west side OF the river and extend
ing third Of the way across is fln-
ished and the concreting machinery
has been moved over TO this side in
readiness to begin on the section ex-
tending out one-tbird Of the way from
this band. 1t is expected TO begin
concreting this in few days and
to finish it this fall before the wealth
er interferes with the work.
The central section will not be
built this fall. 1t was hoped by the
engineers to have 1t closed up and the
gates put In but the contractor want
ed it left open SO that he could take
his fleet through it next spring and as
he was very determined in this be
carried it out the way he wanted 1t
done. He could however have easily
closed 1t up and the work could have
been carried to completion just that
much sooner.
AbGat fifty men are now engaged
in excavating for the Golfer dam on this
side Of the river for the section of the
dam that is to be built this fall and
they will shortly have the place ready
for the concrete.

COMMENDED.
One Member of the Board says
Raymond is all Right.

Couple of Unfounded Statements
Reg emf is Evidently not Cenyersant
with the Status OF Affairs Here
What he has to say and Where in he
Errs in Saying it.
The following statement from a
member Of the board Of regents on
the condition of affairs at the Uni
versity was published in a recent is
sue of the Wheeling Intelllgencer:
1.-THE beard does not now intend to
answer in detail the charges made
against it and President Raymond.
They have been published at the in
stance of few sore-head politicians,
who could not make the university
the dumping ground for some of their
heelers, and by some others who have
not proffted by the management as
they would have liked.
ga few members of the faculty also
have been bent on making mischief.
These will be eliminated just as soon
as it can be done. The politicians
would just as well understand now
that their interference will not be toll
Grated. The present board has cleo
ted at least twenty members of the
faculty and does not know or want to
known the politics Of single one of
them. | believe the people of the
sta tie who are truly interested in the
university VIII sanction the work
which has been done by the present
board. The splendid condition Of the
institution speaks for itself.
1.-THE board is entirely satisfied with
the administration of President Ray
mond. It's members realize that he
of zeal and youth and he will overcome
them. We think he is doing good
work for the university"
The member must have been very
far from being onto the exact situa-
ton. When he talks of sore-head pol
iticians he hits not only the leading
members of the state administration
but he hits a number of Morgantown
people of both parties. The cry
against DR.. Raymond is not political
one as it is shared in by the people
and papers irrespective of party. His
only defenders are people who are igno-
rant of the situation or who are inter
ested in preventing it from coming
out.
The criticism of the faculty is alb
solutely unfounded and is known to
be such by all who are conversant of
the facts The threat to remove the
rest of the West Virginians on such a
trumped up charge will not have a
very 5soothing effect on the loyal
members of the faculty who has stood
by Raymond in all of his hare BRAIN
ed schemes.

from this Program
A meeting of the executive COM
mittee was held on Thursday after

matters in relation to it and dis
cussed them fully.
The mayor stated that there
would be twenty-five extra police
men on duty that day and they will
be instructed TO preserve the very
best order possible. Several OF these
will be stationed in various sections

not killed by the horses that will be
brought in.
The definite arrangements for the
parade and speaking were taken up.
1t was decided to have the parade
in the morning at ten thirty. Where
it will form and the direction in
which it is TO march were not finally
decided as this is under the direc-
ZION III tile tHlGl IidtSlaii wiz Ia

v. U.
The University controversy has now
assumed such phase as to render
DR.. Raymond's connection with the
school inadyisable-at least beyond
the current year. The Herald does
not consider the merits Of the case in
arriving at this conclusion. DR.. Ray
mond may be the victim of envy and
Misrepresentation; he may deserve the
punishment which many influential
men in the state are now administer
ing. We have some decisive opinions
about this, but such a discussion has
now passed beyond its usefulness. 1t
would now be impossible for DR.. Ray
mond to exercise the influence at the
University or throughout the State
demanded of the presidency and this
entirely independent of whether his
course has been commendable or
faulty. In word, the enemies OF the
president, whether righteously or not
have succeeded. His retention by the
Board of Regents under the present
unfortunate pressure which has de-
veloped into permanent and persistent
opposition, would be unwise and even
unsafe. If he is sinned against, then
the Board must be cruel only to be
kind; If he is blameworthy then their
duty is equally clear.-Huntington
Herald Rep.)

Where Success Lies.

Very few people are born with ex-
traordinary talent. Successful peo-
pie generally owe more to persistent
effort than natural ability. 1t is bet
ter to be born with will to work
than to be born with talent. An
earnest purpose is the way to success
ia any undertaking. A boy will more
surely make his way in the world if
he has to struggle with difficulties,
and the sooner he learns, that he is not
naturally endowed with talent, the
sooner he goes to work.
