No man can conduct a great insti-
tuition of learning who can stoop from
his high position to attack members
of his faculty from purely personal
apd petty reasons.
THERE was no fight here until the
President attacked several members
of the faculty. They then have been
forced to defend themselves.
THE President has taken advantage
of his position to stab faithful pro-
fessors in the dark taking advantage
of his position to do so. He was not
man enough to attack them in the
open.

THE presence of Raymond is a
standing insult to the intelligence of
our State. He has a contempt for
every West Virginian. He cannot toll
crate the miserable haw eaters. Some
of them are low enough to kiss the
hand that smites them but there are
plenty to resist him and to GUST him
from the State eventually
THE ablest men on the faculty are
the objects of Raymond's attacks.
They have made the University what
it is in this state and elsewhere.

Nor man in this town takes the
Presidents charges against the mem
bers of the faculty seriously. They
know that he is animated by personal
preJudices and that even he does not
believe what he has said in them.

If your bicycle needs pumping up
you can get first class pump at

The dollar one is dandy.
ALL the members of the faculty at
tackled are West Virginians and are
secure in the esteem of the educators
of this state. Why the President has
singled them out for his attacks is
known to be due to pique on his part
and the fight originated within his
own breast.

It's funny way to try to stop
the row by Raymond s retention. As
long as there is a loyal West Virgin
ian in the state there will be trouble
with that man and as long as any of
the importations retain their self
respect he is bound to have trouble
with them. No one can escape this.
The doctor insists on it at all times.

IT has never been learned why DIR.
Ray was several years in learning
that five of the faculty were incompe-
tent and immoral. The mere fact
that he has not said so before now is
all that is required TO show that he is
simply stating what he knows and
what every body else knows to be alb
solutely false ia every particular.
THE teachers institute for this
county is to be held during next
week beginning on Monday the 18th.
There are many teachers who seem
to have overlooked this fact.
No ONE believes that DR. Raymond
is sincere in his charges OF ineompe-
tency against the old professors, They
are the result of petty personal spite
on his part.

Culture of Basket Willows.

The long thin stems of the basket
willow are called osiers, and the osier
willow is the same as the basket will
low. Really there are two kinds of
osier willows, but there is so little
difference between them that only q
botanist could discover it. Generally
these willows are grown on damp
ground on the banks of streams or
ponds, but they will grow as easily on
quicker growth and stronger twigs.
The best locality for growing them as
farm crop is near large town or
city where many baskets or other will
low goods are made. Large quantities
of osiers are used for making chairs,
children's carriages and other work
besides baskets. There is a constantly
increasing demand for them.

Growing tired of his chair one after
noon, Speaker Reed surrendered it to
another member and sat down beside
a western democrat. "My, what a
large hand you have!" remarked Mr..
Reed, looking intently at the enor-
nous paw Of his Democratic friend,
who was writing letter. Yes, sir"
said the member, ''and am proud of
it. I worked on a farm for SO many
years that my hands grew large, as
you see them" The speaker held up
his small and shapely right hand,
smooth and white as woman's, and
said: well, thank the Lord never
worked on a farm" The member re-
piled: "You are probably going to
run for the presidency some time, Mr..
Reed, and if you do I'll placard that
statement all over the country-and
what could you do about it?" The big
fellow unused while and said: Moth
ing-except to brand you as an infer
nal liar!"

But he knew that he was In fine con-

his class from a scholastic standpoint.
As an athlete he is nard and fal.nful
worker and keeps in condition the year
round. .Ie does not break training af-
ter an event. or course he does not
do the rigorous work out OF season
that he does when he is preparing for
an event; but he regulates his work
so that he Is in fit shape all the time.

Island of st. Helena.

st. Helena Is lonely island In the
Atlantic ] 200 miles from the west
coast OF Africa, 1875 miles from Cape
Town, and AIT miles from Southamp-
ton. 1t Is OF volcanic origin and con-
slsts Of numerous rugged mountains,
the highest rising to height OF $500
feet. 1t measures ten miles by eight
and has an area of AZ square miles; the
population at the last census In 1891
was 4,116. 1t was discovered by the
Portuguese In 1902, and taken posses
sion OF by the British East India Com
pany in 1851. They remained masters
of the island until 1884, since when 1t
has been administered by governor
and a council Of four members. Pre-
yious to the cutting of the Suez Canal,
st. Helena was a favorite port OF call
for vessels bound to and from India by
the Cape Of Good Hope, and the inhab-
itants did large trade in furnishing
these vessels with provisions and
other supplies. But the shorter route
afforded by the Canal and the Red Sea
has entirely destroyed this trade, and
the island is speedily going from bad
to worse. 1t is chiefly celebrated as
the place of Napoleon Bonaparte's I'M
prisonment from 1915 to his death in
1921. A small garrison is always sta
toned on the island. but this will be
largely increased now that 1t Is made
the home of the Boer prisoners. Tho
house in which Napoleon died is still
in a good state of preservation and
will doubtless be utilized for some OF
the more important prisoners now sta
toned there.
