Such News.

-. Petersburg. March 80, 1928 p. m.
Members Of the war party. who are
at daggers drawn with the friends of
peace. are industriousIy insinuatmg
that if Russian diplomacy is doing
anything IN tho direction Of peace II is
without imperial sanction and is in
reality only an unofficial endeavor to
induce japan TO agree to negotiate on
the lines Of no Cession of territory and
no indemnity, and to enable the adj
FoCates Of peace to point out to the
emperor that peace is possible without
national humiliation. To show that the
emperor Is still for the prosecution Of
the war they arc spreading story
20 the effect that when Foreign Min
lister LamsdoTff, i'm advocating the adj
visa bility of peace, drew the ElOOmi-
est picture of the situation i'm the far
east, his majesty became angry and

ton up i'm the committee of ministers,
where his proposal was vigorously Op-
posed by President White, Prince Hill

that the strike among the students was

d fact that the prudential commit

practically decided to accept the gift
OF 100000 from John y. Rockefeller

The Democratic party Of the na.
ton is divided into two factions, one
contending for stable currency, the
other for wildcat or any other kind
This being the situation, one faction
will not aid the other to very great
extent in Presidential contest.
They are, or have been, as far apart,
seemingly, us two distinct political
parties ever find themselves. This
makes 1t easy for the party In power.
II not easy in campaign, 1t results
in victory that looks very much
one-slded. The condition Of the Dem
ocratic party nationally can be carly
approached In this State by the Re-
publIcans II they continue In the
paths they are now treading. The
few "insurgent' or Teter organs can
not do any particular harm II lei
alone, but II some OF the stalwart Re.
publican newspapers are going to
keep up row because Of the makeup
of their State committee, they are
thereby furnishing aid and comfort to
the first named organs, adding fuel
to the flame, as It were, and this, in
our opinion, will sooner or later do
great harm to the dominant party.
1t may disgust its members and cause
an Indifference among them that will
be hard to overcome. The West Vir
ginian, which has no greater interest
in the welfare OF its party than the
other Republican newspapers which
believe in party loyalty and regulari
ty, appeals to them to go to talking
OF party unity and the grand and goot
things that are going to result from
our new tax laws. This will be fount
to be great pleasure, and the dis
. position TO kick within our own rank
will or should soon pass away.

aid.
The Moundsville Herald probably
does not refer to itself, but the refer.
ence would be pertinent, as far as
that paper may be considered Repub-
lican at all. Nobody objects to hon
est and fair minded criticisms of the
State administration. but the contin-
uous exhibition Of spirit that is fac.
tous In persistent and unwarranted
opposition is disorganizng and disloy-
al We can reason it out in no other
way. If Mr.. Tetcr were governor Of
this State, this paper would certainly
regard such an attitude on its part as
entirely hostile, unrepublcan and
most grateful to the enemy. II is the
business Of any paper claiming to be
Republican TO uphold in general the
hands Of the State administration,
whether that paper likes It or not,
and in particular, If it does not ap.
prove, its criticisms should be aimed
honestly and with the welfare Of the
party in mind. But the animus OF
certain papers in their opposition to
the State administration is SO con.
spicuously personal, factious and per
ennially bilious that their influence is
anything but wholesome to the gen
eral good Of the party. This paper
pleads for fair umpirlng, whether the
