Holland Sees VICtOru.

The Washington correspondent
of the Philadelphia Inquirer sends
his aper the following interview
with Senator b. o. Holland, of
Logan county:
81 am somewhat surprised tha,
there should be inquiry about the
fate of West Virginia in 1904. The
State is so solidly Republican that
there can be no doubt about the
outcome. In fact the only thing
which is now lending interest to the
political situation in the Mountain
State is the battle now on between
Senator Scott and the Hon. j. l..
Caldwell of Huntington. am for
Caldwell. 1t may, however, be said
and my position does not influence
me, that Mr.. Caldwell will sweep
the State. He is growing stronger
every day, and unless all present
indications fail, will undoubtedly be
the next United States Senator from
West Virginia"

enid winter conventions are the
fore-runners of distress" IT'S true.
CEREDo ADVANCE.
If the Eagle and Al VANCE are
correct, it's preof that the 'advance
agent of Democracy" got in his
work at the Cabell county Republi-
can committee meeting Wednesday,
and that Brother William Freight
agent Hite is fast "fore- runner of
distress. "-Hun,ington Argus.
The first work of the "advancs
agents OF Democracy" was the call
ing Of the convention for this coun.
ty and then the Congressional con-
vention-both to be held in mid.
winter, amid the snow and ice.
Such haste will crtainly do the party
no good.

Ceredo, w. Va.
DEAR SIR
We are informed that the Con-
gressiOual committee have named
Feb. 9th as the day for our Con.
gressional convention. If this is
20, why not let the Committee nomi-
nate MIR. Hughes and be done with
1t, for 1t is very plain that this early
day was fixed solely in the interest
OF Mr.. Hughes, rs it does not give
any other candidate a chance to get
before the people. Now if the Com
mittee will change the date to March
27tl, we will show them that we
have a man in Wyoming county
that can beat the socks off of Mr..
Hughes. The man is the Hon. w.
III. III. Cook, of Window, w. Va, a
man whom the people know they
can trust; a man ~ho fultills every
promise he makes and a man whose
heart is with the people he repre-
sents.
Now, we have nothing personally
against MIR. Hughes. We know he
is good and useful man, but do
not believe in keeping one man in
office all the time when we have
plenty of other men who are jus, as
competent to fill the Office, besides
the people have INDUCED Mr.. Hughes
. great deal more than he really de.
serves. Hon. Romeo III. Freer, one
among the best and smartest men in
the State, only served one term in
Congress and Mr.. Hughes has had
two.
Now, Mr.. Editor, we will olose by
saying we are for the nominee no
difference who he is, but we believe
in the fair thing.

Less than one hour after play COM
menced, the genial dealer, who also
smiled, had separated Joe Letter from

Letter had let his cigar go out. That
worried him more than his loss. A
cowboy gave him match. That cow
boy admired him and would have given
him his life had he asked for it. But
Letter only asked for another deal.
The game went on. There is no limit
in faro bank at Littleton's s. Letter
bet $4,000 straight on a single card
and the crowd almost had paralysis OF
the heart. Letter lost, lit fresh cigar
laughed, bet another $4,000 on the

That put him more than $4,000 tc

Every cowboy in the crowd offered him

WAT0NWA FOR MILLER
McCLEARY's RADICAL STAND ON

Special to The Journal.
Madelia, Mimi, Sept. 16.-A strong
of sentiment in favor Of
H. J.. Miller of Luverne to succeed Con-
gresham j. T. McCleary has been mani
Tested at this place, but the matter did
not assume definite form until recently,
when a rousing meeting of leading citi-
Zens and business men was held to ex-
change views. It was at once appar-
ent that all entertained the same view,
and as result, resolution endorsing
the candidacy Of Mr.. Miller and pledg
ing him support was passed, the same
being subscribed to by nearly seventy
five of the leading citizens.
A committee appointed by the meet
ing to inquire into the sentiment else
where thruout the county has found a
similar strong sentiment in favor Of Mr..
Miller, and it now seems almost a fore
gone conclusion that Watonwan county
will stand for Miller at the primaries.
While different reasons are given for
the non-support of McCleary, his radi-
cal stand on the tariff question seems to
meet with almost unanimous disap-
prevail, especially among the farmers
and business men.

Madison, Wis, Sept. 16.-The argu-
ment in the suit brought by the nomi-
nees of the Cook state ticket to com
pei Secretary Of State Houser to place
their names on the official ballot I'M
ican' was finished at noon today.
Mr.. Bashford occupied the first part
of the forenoon for the defense and Mr..
Olin the remainder for the plaintiffs.
The case seems to hang largely on
whether the second part of section IS
o. the Reylsed Statutes applies. The
When two or more conventions or
caucuses shall be held and the nominal
lions thereof certified each claiming to
be the regular convention or caucuses Of
the same political party preference in
destination shall be given to the nomi-
nations Of the one certified by the COM
fed to represent the party.'' =, -
The defense claims that this statute
applies and that under it the only tri-
bunal having authority to decide the
controversy is the old state central com
mittee elected two years ago. 49,.
The plaintiffs contend that the court
| ought to follow the decision of the ma.
tlonal convention, the highest authority
in the party, which decided that the
Cook convention was the regular one and
that the statute does not apply, because
the old committee has passed out of ex
istence, and even if it had not, it's mem
bers are SO biased and periudiced as tc
make them unfit to serve upon quasi
judicial body such as the COMMITTEES
would be while judging the merits Of the
controversy. *

closing argument. The court ad
journed to Sept. 81, when decision il
