THE NOMINATION OF DAWSON.

| We doff our hat to the Hon. Viii
liam Mercer Owens Dawson, of IA
nawha county, and pledge him oul
hearty support for the office of gov
er9or. BY the action of last nights
convention Mr.. Dawson is the stan
dard-bearer of the Republican party
| in West Virginia, and as such, he de
serves the support Of every man from
Hancock to Mcdowell. He will un.
doubtedly be elected by a rousing ma
jority in November.
The Telegraph did not believe that
Mr.. Dawson was the strongest candi-
date the Republicans could have Sc
lected. We did not approve of some
of his methods. The Telegraph be-
lieved the Hon. Charles Fawcett
cans, and fought for him as hard as
1T could. We used every fair and
honorable means to advance his in
terests, and we have no apology to
make for our stand. Mr. Teter is a
brainy, big-hearted, splendid young
Republican, and the State is sure to
hear of him in the future.
The Telegraph does not approve of
the tactics in Yesterdays convention,
and regards the action as to the Gre
dentials committee as unprecedented
and revolutionary. 1t may cause Sc
rious trouble in future conventions
and rise up to plague the very men
VINO invented the adroit scheme
But that is neither here nor there.
The fight is over and Mr.. Dawson
has been nominated. We accept the
result. However, we have differed
with him and his supporters; we know
that there is no doubt of his sturdy |
Republicanism, no question as to his |
ability and Integrity, and no dis
count on his shrewdness and far-sighI-
edness. He is one of the most adroit |
politicians in the State, and the Re.
party has owed much to him
n the past. Mr.. Dawson has had long
raining in official life, and there is
10 doubt whatever but that he will
make first-class governor.-Wheel-

MINISTERIAL RELIEF
IS DISAPPOINTING
Presbyterian Divine Declares That
5000 Churches Give Nothing.

BUFFALO, N. Y, May 21-The
most interesting event of the session
of the general assembly of the Pres
byterian church of the United States
today was the reading of a press ac-
count of the favorable reception by the
Southern Presbyterian assembly, now
in session at Mobile, Ala, of the reso-
lutions of the general assembly looking
to the union of the two bodies
DR.. c. R. Erdman, of Philadelphia,
read the report of the committee on
ministerial relief. The contributions
last year were less than had been ex-
pected, eXcusing the shortage by say
ing a portion of it was due to a mis-
understanding as to the finances of
the board. Dr. c. E. Agnew, of Phila-
delphia, declared that 5000 churches
We're giving nothing.
Motions to re-eIect the present Off
GERS of the committee and that no re-
lief be extended to ministers from
other denominations who have not
served at least five years in the Pres
byterian church were adopted, and the
report of the committee as a whole
was agreed to. The assembly adjourn
ed until Monday
While many important questions will
come before the assembly the first of
next week, the absorbing topic is the
proposed union with the Cumberland
church, which has been isolated from
the parent body since 1910. Debate
will begin next Thursday. 1t is no.
ticeable that the union plan is assailed
by some of the prominent clergymen
and college presidents in the North
and in the South. It is the opinion
of many that the battle to be fought
here will be between leaders and the
rank and file.
1t is claimed by some that the con-
fession of faith as revised a year ago
now admits of union with the Cumber-
land branch. Others believe other
wise, and this difference will precipl-
tate one of the contests on the assem-
bly, floor.
Predestination and the educational
qualifications for the ministry have
also continued as grounds for separa-
ton, but there is another issue-the
Jim Grow issue-which is not less
formidable. The Cumberlanders as a
condition of union demand separate
colored presbyteries. Many who would
be willing to accede to reunion on doc
trinal grounds are bitterly opposed to
race discrimination.

SUES FOR LOSS DUE
TO TELEGRAm'S DELAY
Swans Case Against the Western
Union Appealed by the Defendant.

WASHINGTON. d. c., May 21.-The
case of the Western Union Telegraph
Company VS.. Charles J. Swan was
docketed in the supreme court of the
United States today. The case orig
mated in Michigan and was instituted
by Swan to recover 5000 which he
claims to have lost through a delay of
seven hours in the delivery of tele-
gram ordering the purchase of copper
stock.
He claims the difference represented
by the advance in the stock ordered by
him between the time the message
should have been delivered and the
time it was delivered. The circuit
court of appeals sustained this cOnten-
ton and the telegraph company asks
the supreme court to review the de-
cision
