The row promised BY local
daily over the appointment 81 the
game and hsa warden did not mate
rialize. SO now the yonng hopeful at
Charleston sends word to his paper
that the rottenness and injustice OF
modern West Virginia legislation is
quite noticeable. This same bright
youth seems hurt that two-thirds OF
the people who made applications
for petty jobs had TO go home empty
handed, while those who were APP
pointed got in against powerful OPP
position" We infer from the CORE
spondenee that three times as many
people applied for places as there
were jobs to give out, hence it seems
TO us there was only one way out OF
sending two-thirds of the applicants
home without positions and that
would have been to give them all
places. Then our brilliant knocker
would have said things sure enough;
the chances are that he will be COM
planning before long that too many
appointments were made as matters
stand. so If the Legislature is en-
barrassed because II doesn't please
this versatile reporter, 1t had better
adjourn because IL will never accom-
plish that feat.
