Daily new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1897-1906, 1903-02-13
Anent Augusta County.

The bill to form a new county
with Warrington as the county
seat and with portions of Marion,
Monongalia and Wetzel to form the
county is sleeping at Charleston.
The bill came before the House
Thursday afternoon on the second
reading and was indefinitely post
poned by vote of 40 to rs. The
vote is significant after all the
shouting that has been done by the
advocates of the new county.
At first many people In this coun-
ty were afraid that the movement
would succeed as it seemed that
many were in favor of 1T. However
the sober second thought of thu
members prevailed and the scheme
failed.
1t ought to have failed. 1t was
in violation of the plainest provis-
ions of the constitution. The whole
thing was irregular and illegal.
However much weight we may at
tach to the complaints OF those liv-
ing in Battelle district we are una
BILE to allow them to have a new
county. This county is too small to
admit of further diminution.
Warrington people are angry and
sore. They are very sore at Fair
mont and less aggrieyed at Morgan
town. They have no right to be
mad. The people of these two towns
could do nothing than that which
they did. The arguments they used
were the only right and proper ones
when the House took a look at the
bill and the constitution and re-
membered their oaths the scheme
for new county promptly went to
sleep.
A constitutional amendment is
the only thing that will make Au-
gusta county possibility.
