A TREAT.

The State Sentinel gives us little
insight into the Union Republican pro-
gram IN the following:
Only Union Republicans will have
seats at Chicago, and IT, peradventure,
half-seats should be awarded, the Bolt
ers win have the pleasure OF a whole
seat. Union Republicans have a habit
OF thinking for themselves as to what
Is right, and no half-seats win be ac-
ceptedi except upon the express condi-
tion OF a common primary.
We presume the national party will
weigh well the threat that this para
graph contains and shape it's acts to
suit tae demand. IL appears that If
the Union Republicans are not accord
ed fun recognition they are prepared to
bolt, and by their future conduct to
make the national party regret It's
rashness. We think, however. that II
is safe to assume that the Union Re-
publicans would decide that even a few
crumbs would be preferable to hunger

Hearst in West Virginia.

There is no gainsaying the fact that
William Randolph Hearst is maxim &
nroads upon West Virginia. Two
months ago no one would have sup
posed he could have mustered TWEEN y
Democrats in the entire state, but the
returns now show that he is going to
make a good fight for the control of
the state, with good chances of sue
cess.
The other day the Calhoun coun ty
Democrats held mass convention.
No one would have supposed that
Calhoun knew anything about Hearst
Yet resolutions were unanimously
adopted instructins the delegates to
vote for him. Wednesday the Demo-
Gratis of Centerville district, Tyler
county. held meeting and took ac-
ton favorable to Hearst. In the
Fourth congress district Hearst. with
three counties to bear from, has los
delegates, which is more than the
majority. This insures his at least
two of the delegates to the st. Louis
convention.
1t is but reasonable to suppose that
If Hearst has had so much success
one district, he will meet with fair
share in the four others That he
will be a formidable candidate before
the Char1eStOWn convention next

troll of the party it would be we'll for
them to move from their warm places

CANADA WANTS
NORTH AMERICA.

The departure of an OStenS!b1e
Arctic exploration expedition under
the auspices of the Canadian govern
ment may be the preliminary to a
new boundary dispute with Canada.
The purposes of the expedition are
first, to assert jurisdiction over all the
land between Canada and the north
pole, and then to achieve the distinc-
ton of reaching the pole itself and,
probably, hosting the flag of Canada
if it has one-in sign Of possession.
The Canadian claim is that all the
land west of Davis straits and BAT
fms bay and east OF Alaska belongs
to Canada. Some Americans are as
serted to have established them
selves on this far north land and
unless the Canadians better them
selves in asserting ownership a sec
ond Alaskan boundary dispute may
arise.
From Halifax the expedition pro-
poses to go north up Davis straits
and BatTln's bay, hosting the British
flag as an evidence of Canadian oc-
cupation and taking a force OF mount
ed police to make its claim of own
ership effective. Another vessel
meanwhile is to go to Melville sound
and Melville island conveying thither
mounted police and the flag
This is the Canadian programme
so far as known to date. Afterward
the objective point will be the North
Pole and an effort will be made to get
there before the American, Peary,
whose oynnnifion this has been
abandoned for lack of funds.-Ex.

lit is well known by students of
political history that Republicanisnn
had it's birth IN the uprising against

that it was entirely too great an evil

American beople.a However the South
developed in many kinds of industry,
the southern people gradually tried
to perI,etuate slavery by extending it
into other states.
Every intelligent person is perfect

souri, compromise was repealed, Civ

At once the north was afame- Abra-

this great evil was doomed.
During this half century which has
Just elapsed the Republican party
has placed practically all the laws,
that have been passed during this
period. on our statute books The
nation has enjoyed unprecedented
prosperity, and has made remarkable
progress and growth. Our AREA has
been increased considerably. The
number of our states has grown from
}31 to As. The population of the coun-

it is nearly $4,000, 900. In short, the
the progress of the coShtry durins

the history of any other nation.
He who would know what the Re-
publican party has done for the
United States should read the history
of the country for the last fifty years.
It's pages glisten with deeds which
shall remain on record through the
ages. 1t is not saying too much that
we are recognized as the greatest ma

greatness and Prominence is largely
due to the policies advanced and
