No State in the country sends to the rival
political headquarters more copious and
more contradictory forecasts than those
that come from West Virginia. Informa-
ton received by the Republicans represents
the State as won already; political visitors to
the Democrats differ only as to the size OF
the Democratic majority. What effect is
the nomination OF HENRY GAssAwAY DAVIS
for Vice-President having upon the Demo-
cratic fortunes in his own State? Even on
that point the political sharps are not
agreed.
The situation, in truth, is without preo-
edent in the past. The Democratic party
has never had any experience with a favor
tie son" Of any State, running either for
President or Vice President, at the age
OF so and upward" Yet there have been
some lessons Of experience In other elections
in which promising "favorite sons" have
been nominated for Vioe-President.
No student Of politics can forget the case
OF WILLIAM H. ENoLIsH, nominated for Vice
President in 1890 in order to make sure Of
Indiana. 1t was said Of ENGLISH that the
older men among the Hoosiers would vote
for him on account Of his Congressional
service in war times Indiana was carried
by the Republicans
In 1883 the sturdy old Roman. THURMAN,
was nominated for Vice-President on the
Democratic ticket with the view Of making
sure OF Ohio. THUBMAN's State very un-
sympathetitally went Republican.
In 1895 an incursion into New England
by the crazed Democracy Of that year
accounted for the nomination Of ARTHUR
SEwALL of Maine for Vce-President, but the
experiment disappointed the most modest
expectations.
The veteran ADLAI STEVENSON. norni-
mated for Vice President in 1000 to capture
the electoral votes OF Illinois, failed en-
tirely Of that purpose. STEVENSON did not
rally the old men, and the young men Of
Illinois must have viewed his candidacy
with disfavor. ADLAI was 65 when he was
defeated in 1900.

Brooklyn Delegation Calls for Continuous
Trips and Ono Fare.

Brooklyn Delegation Cais Tor CONTINUOUS
Trips and Ono Fare
Mayor Mcclellan gave a hearing yester-
day to delegation Of business men Of
Brooklyn who object to the terms Of the
contracts made by Bridge Commissioner
Best with the Brooklyn Rapid Transit and
Metropolitan companies for the running Of
trolley cars across Williamsburg Bridge.
The delegation called to insist that the
companies which are to use the bridge
should be compelled to transfer passen-
gers from one system to another for q
single fare and that the contracts should
provide for continuous trips TO- prevent
the necessity Of changing cars at the bridge
approaches. Another suggestion made was
that a track should be built for the running
Of elevated railroad trains over the bridge.
The Mayor asked the leaders Of the delega-
ton to submit briefs to him. explaining in
detail what they wished him to do, and he
promised that when he had considered
these he would take up the question Of
COMPREHENSIVE transportation service be-
tween the two boroughs.

impression that he would not oppose the de-

There is a feeling abroad that Odell has
been animated more by desire to promote
his own ACKNOWLEDGMENT than the success OF
his party. As n consequence there is bitter

One of the great advantages OF some
OF our official statistics is elasticity.
They can be stretched in any direction
and can be cut into garment for quite
antagonistic theories. A recently is-
sued statement concerning the increase
in our export Of manufactured goods is
thus made cause OF rejoicing for those
who wish to rejoice over an increase, and
a ground of dismay for those who regard
it from different standpoint.
1t is certainly altogether delightful to
contemplate the fact that in twenty
three years our export OF domestic manu-
features has, increased $40 per cent.
