West Virginia argus. [volume] (Kingwood, W. Va.) 1877-1946, 1899-05-25

Great efforts are being made to
have the Navy Department join in
trying to persuade Admiral Dewey
to come home by way Of Sanfran-
cisco, instead of by way of New
York. a railway company has
offered to furnish him without cost
the finest special train that ever
crossed the continent. to bring him
from San Francisco to- Washington.
The Republican politicians arc not
disposed to help along this idea at
all. They are afraid of Dewey as
1t is, and they don't know what
might happen # he was made ii o
hero of a series of popular ovations
in every town between San Fran
cisco and Washington. They
would much prefer his coming to
New York, trusting the rest to his
modesty.

preliminary to an advance.
