IN WEST VIRGINIA.


lished in the daily papers this morn
ing the result of the vote on the State
ticket in West Virginia is in Doubt
Roosevelt carries the State by a ma
jority that will probably reach 10000,
and all FIVE of the Republican Con-
gre.smen are elected.
The Republicans are Systematically
and suspiciously-claimiDg Daw-
con slection by 10000 majority, but
they have apparently no ground for
these figures. The Democratic man
ayers say that Cornwell is undoubted-
ly elected by small majority. Daw-
son runs thousands Of votes behind his
ticket, and there seems to be reason
for the Democratic belief that he is
defeated. Among the counties which
chow heavy gains for Cornwell are the
following: Fayette gave Cornwell l.
900 majority, change of 5000 from
the last election; Ksnawha gave
Cornwell 500, a change of 2, 400; Nc
Dowell gave Dawson 500, Democra-
tic gain of 1900; Marion gave Corn
well 800, gain of 800; Wood gave
Dawson $50, Democratic gain of
800 Other Democratic gains are ::
Cabell, 40; Ohio, 500; Writ, 200;
Peasants, 200; Doddridge, 100
Clay, 100; Calhoun, 1000.
The Legislature will be Republica
in both branches by large majority,
and Senator Scott will probably sue
cede himself.
Cornwell ran far ahead of the other
candidates on the State ticket, and If
he is elected he will be the only Dem
ocrat in the State government.
There was great slump in Jefer-
son county. The majority of Bryan
four years ago WAS 1922; this year
Parker has but l,245 Cornwell car
ries the county by 1888 over DAw'on
and Walker beats Dayton by 1856.
The average majority for the county
ticket is only about 1850, a loss OF
from 200 to 800 votes. We have
not yet been able to get the full re-
turns, but will publish the official vote
next week. The slump in the vote,
we understand, was in the country
precincts in the east and south end Of
the county.
The Democrats of Berkeley county
did mighty good work, electing every
one of their candidates except county
commissioner. Roosevelt carried the
county by plurality of 81. Stuart
W. Walker had a plurality Of 242
over Dayton for Congress, and Corn
well majority of go over Dawson.
W. W. Westphal and John c. Huts-
Ter had majorities of q and 81 over
their Republican opponents for the
Sites and Clendenning:
Democratic candidate for
beat Rutherford by 5l3, and
Noll, for prosecuting attorney, had
152 plurality over Lindsay, the Re-
publican incumbent. c. W. StuckeyS
the only Republican winner in the
was elected commissioner over
Heushaw by 80 majority. We con-
graduate the Berkeley county Demo
Gratis.
Judge E. Boyd Faulkner carries
jefferson county by about 900 ma
jority over Joseph Trapnell, indie
pendent candida for Judge, and his
majority.in the district will foot up
in the neighborhood Of 1000.

We are just as proud Of Parker and
Davis as if they had won. They are
manly, courageous, honest men, and
they fought good fight. They were
not afraid to go night after the enemy,
stood by their principles to the end,
and went down with flying colOls.
They betrayed no trust, they made no
mistakes, and the party is proud OF
the clean and gallant struggle that
they made.

Consumption

Salt pork is famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty Of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott SEmulSionisth emod-
ern Method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
-ough for sensitive StomachS.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

Buffalo, N. Y, May 2S.-The general

basis of union will now go to thepres-
byteries of the general assembly. Ii

shall be effected on the doctrinal basis
of the confession of faith of the Pres

Washington, May sS.-lThe Methodist
Protestant conference to-day completely
cleared the way for union between itself
and every one of the four denominations
with which negotiations are pending,
by the adoption of supplemental re-
port from its committee on union. If
two-thirds of the members of the va
rious conferences vote for union with
the Primitive Methodists, the union will
be consummated so far as the Methodist
Protestants are concerned. With re-
spect to the Methodist Episcopal church,
whenever it shall appoint commission
to consider the question of union the
president Of the general conference is
authorized to appoint a like commission
to consider terms. The president Of the
conference also is given authority to

ON MoRGAN'S RAID.
Relics of An Historic Event Owned
.st.r r.. BY D. j. Evans. t1. ....

D. ]. Evans, of Evans, in looking
over his attic one rainy day of last
week, came across some war relics Of
the days of the sixties. He brought
the saber and a pistol to the Herald
office and the old evidences of per-
suasion may be seen in our south win
dow. The weapons were taken from
prisoners, members of the Morgan
raiders, captured in an engagement
near Burlington Island. MIR. Evans at
the time was a private in the Ohio
National Guard in Company D of the
9th regiment, of which Ed Horton
was captain. The prisoners were
taken at the time to the number OF
about four hundred ana Mr.. Evans
took the sword and pistol which ne
has kept to this day. They are val
liable relics of that historic raid and
D. j. prizes them very highly.

STIMULATING TO BUSINESS
IMPROVEMENT IN WEATHER A
HELP TO TRADE.
Industrial Outlook on the Whole
Seems Brighter-The Rec
ord of Failures.

New York, May 2S.-R. G. Dun & Co. g
Weekly Review of Trade says: Retail
trade is stimulated by seasonable
weather and the industrial outlook is
brighter on the whole, although several
adverse factors have appeared. The big
Org goods auction sale opened with an
Unexpectedly large attendance and good
prices were secured. 1t is particularly
gratifying to note that retailers rather
than jobbers have made most of the pur-
chases, thus providing prompt distribu-
ton into consuming channels through
out the country. Railway earnings thus
far reported for May fall 81 per cent.
short of the same time last year, but for
eign commerce at this port for the last
week shows gains of $1,637 200 in OK
ports and SS49, 545 in imports.
Failures this week numbered 226 in
the United States, against 206 last year,
and II in Canada, compared with seven
year ago"
Bradstreet's says: THE situation is
rather more irregular. Distributive
trade, stimulated by better weather in
some sections, has improved, but is still
behind a year ago. Cereal crops, par
ticularly winter wheat, show improve
ment, but cotton reflects drought by con-
ditions in the South Atlantic and Gulf
states, while good reports come from
west of the Mississippi. The industrial
situation is hardly so satisfactory, a
slowing down being noted in many lead
ing industries the number of idle per-
sons is growing, Nnd unskilIed IaTJT
shows'in some sections woeful lack OF
foresight and knowledge of real condi-
tons. -.,.- 49,.
Detailed kilograms from western mat
kets show a uvening up of distributive
trade. Better weather is stimulating
retail demand at the south, but in the
northwest rains at some markets have
been unfayorable to current distribu-
ton. Dizziness in the iron trade is re-
sponsible for further weakening in pig
iron. 1t is very generally buyers mar
ket, but values are low.
