By opening up access 10 the coal and timber

Once Declined Governorship.


In 1855 Senator DAVIS WAS urged to accept
the nomination Tor Governor but declined.
In the matter of attending Democratic Ma,
tioual Conventions 1t is said that his record
exceeds that of any other Democrat in the
country. He has been a delegate TO six ma
tional conventions of his party and again this
year headed the West Virginia delegation to
the St. Louis convention, making in all seven
national conventions Of which be has been a
member
Senator Davis was one of the United States
delegates who formulated the scheme for
bringing the republics of North, Central and
South America together, and resulted in the
establishment of the Bureau of American Re.
pubhcs He was also delegate TO the second
international conference, held two years ago
in the City of Mexico. Another project in
which Senator Davis is interested is the inter
national railway project, which contemplates
continuous road from Boston to Santiago,
Chile, and Buenos Ayres. In this undertak
ing he is associated with Andrew Carnegie.
Senator Davis and Mr.. Carnegie provided the
funds for sending representatives TO Central
and South America to investigate the project.
The Senator realizes, of course, that it is
work of the future and that while, despite his
good health and prospects of many years of
useful life, he may not live to see it an accom-
plished fact, he wishes to be known as one Of
those who foresaw the possibilities and was
the first to aid in the undertaking.
Enormous Business interests.
Mr.. Davis business interests are enormous.
1t was his conception to build the West Vir-
ginia Central and Pittsburg railroad, running

the Potomac to its source on the summit of

Some Public Utierances.

The Judge then gave as recent example
OF the triumph OF an idea, the success Of the
Civil Service Reform movement He cited
also, as an illustration o. the reward given TO
men who have championed reforms, the cleo.
ton of Samuel }. Iiden as Governor Of New
York after his attack upon the Tweed Ring;
and the nomination of Abraham Lincoln for
President after his memorable debate with
Stephen A. Douglas on the slavery issue The
Judge recommended that citizens shall at.
tempt to better governmental conditions in
their own neighborhoods. and, continuing.
said: I'm nearly every town, county and city
government the expenses are rapidly increas.
ing. Although for considerable portions of
the increase, corresponding benefits are being
received, the tendency to wastefulness and
extravaganza is not only remarked, but il al
ready threatens our municipalities 10 the not
far distant future with a burden that will be
borne with exceeding difficulty"
In 1908, 1t will be recalled, the Judge gave
an address before the Georgia State Bar Asso-
cation on Due Process of Law, in which
he dwelt at length upon the Interpretation
given by the courts TO the Fourteenth Amend
ment TO the Constitution of the United States,
and concluded by saying that the Supreme
Court has never been charged with greater
responsibility than that placed upon it by the
adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, "a
responsibility to she meeting of which its in
dividual members have periodically devoted
their supremest energies, great abilities and
broad scholarship, keeping ever in mind-as
appears from the many opinions written--the
danger expressed by Mr.. Justice Miller in the
Slaughter-House cases of so far extending the
Fourteenth Amendment as to fetter and de
grade the State Governments. \"
Judge Parker has naturally, while member
of the Court of Appeals, taken part in the i'm
portant decisions on questions of law brought
