in the future. This never has and
never will affect the friendship be-
tween them. The State Journal con
siders Mr.. Powell, the editor of the
West virginian, one of the most de-.
serving Republicans ii: the STATE, and
would be pleased TO see him reward
ed as he deserves in a political way.
He is one of the old guard and has
labored with all his might for a third
of a century for the good of the party.
He did this as enthusiastically and as
courageously when his county, Sena.

he does now when just the reverse is
true. Such men IS he is deserve ali

wouir: forbid our reproduction of it.
It is reproduced nov mainly to show
the wide difference of opinion there
is between the editor of the State
Journal and the editor of the Charles.
ton Gazette as regards the managing
editor of the West virginian. But
why, after all, should we mention the
Charleston organ? Its editor is a
blatant Democrat; that's all. The edi-
tor of the State Journal is a Republi.

1t will he remembered by those who

the Gazette referred to the editor of

sycophantic apologist for crime, cor
