dent Of the triumphant reelection Of

Virginia Republicans feel the same
way about it.-Parkersburg News.
t We do not know how a majority Of
the Republicans ,fSei about it. as we
have not made a canvass Of the State,
as the News seems to have done. but
as Senator McDermott is associated
with Senator sElkins in business
way, we would expect him to be for
the Randolph statesman. and as the
latter has made large investments in

1t strange IL any noticeable opposition

In the first place there is no agita.
ton among the general public for
Judge Con for United States Senator.
Outside of some newspapers and a few
politicians, his name is not mentioned
for that place once in month. The
masses Of the people are2not bother
ing themselves as to whether he is a
candidate or not. He has no more
following than any Of the half dozen
or so other men mentioned occasion
ally for the MISUNDERSTANDING
State Journal.
The State Journal is speaking for
its own community, of course, not for
any others. We have no doubt 1t
speaks the truth when 1t says that
the masses. Of the people are not
bothering themselves as to whether
he Judge Goff) is candidate or
not" 1t has reference to the masses
in Wood county, we presume, but
what It says is true of the masses
everywhere. They never do bother
themselves as to whether anybody is
a candidate or not. 1t is always the
few In every community who work up
an interest In candidates and political
campaigns. The masses do not read
and therefore do not think about such
matters. The State Journal doubtless
states the whole truth as regards
Wood county when 1t says that Judge
Cor has no more following than any
OF the half dozen or so other men
mentioned occasionally for the posi-.
ton" It is quite different, however,
outside OF Wood. In Harrison, Ma.
rion. Taylor and especially in Ohio
county 1t will find that there is a
strong Goff sentiment. and there would
be a great deal more II slight effort
were made in his behalf. Many talk

lieve that their party stands in need
OF his leadership at this time, while
others think there should be a change
in the Senatorship no matter who the
beneficiary might be. They, feel that
twelve years is long enough for any
man in the United States Senate in
view of the fact that we have SO many
men in our party who are as worthy
and well qualified for the position as
the present incumbent or any of his
predecessors. There is very strong
sentiment among the people against
the few holding the Offices lifetime,
and this is largely responsible for the
talk in favor of others for the sena.
torship.

The Clarksburg Telegram quoted
Yesterday the following words of Tax
Commissioner Dillon:
"The assessment of personal prop.
erty during the present year is on a
basis of its fair cash value and not at
Its true and actual value as will be
the case next year when the assessors
are more familiar with the laws and
an actual value assessment is placed on
all kinds OF personal property, includ.
ing Of course the much talked of
leaseholds'
Wonder if the Telegram believes
now what the West virginian has
been trying to beat into its pate for
several days. 1t is very nice Of the
Telegram to come down off its high
horse in thus quoting from the tax
commissioner in the face of the fact
thatit is contrary to what 1t has been

JAMES Il. HYDE
SEEKS A BRIDE
THE MAN OF EQUITABLE FAME
is PAYING COURT TO MISS
GLADYS DEACON.

NEWPORT, R. l., August THAT
James Hazen Hyde, of Equitable
fame. is seeking a bride In Newport,
and that she is none other than Miss
Gladys Deason, whom he met and
lavishly entertained in Paris after
her reported engagement to the
Crown Prince OF Germany was said
to have been broken, the cynics of
even the most exclusive set are fore
ed to conclude. though the closest
relatives of the young couple positive
ly refuse to seriously discuss the mat
ter.
Mrs. Charles H. Baldwin, widow of
the richest admiral the navy ever pos
sessed, with whom Miss Deacon is
making her home, accompanied the
handsome young society woman and
Mr.. Hyde to select vaudeville en-
tertainment last night. Throughout
the evening the former vice president
of the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety paid the closest attention to the
young woman and was oblivious of the
entertainment.
While 1t is conclusion among
many who move in the best circles
that Hyde is here for the purpose
of ripening the affection which they
say has existed since the young people
first met, they are patiently awaiting
an announcement from the Baldwin
villa.
