WON'T STAND FOR IT.

Our great and good friend who edits
the Parkersburs State Journal thinks
the West virginan and the Morgan
town Chronicle have been irving to
hamper his liberties by certain iDsin-
nations. In answering he says few
things worth repeating, as follows:
"The Fairmont West virginian's reg
ularity these days sounds a good deal
like INSURGENCY. If such men as
Reese Blizzard, Il young fellow Of this
town, do not. conduct their Republi.
canism according to the views Of the
West virginian it proposes TO tear
around and smash things up general
ly. Even Senator Elkins must do as
the West Virginian says or he will get
hit with a club as long as the West
Virginian's tongue. To all this the
State Journal has no particular objec-
tiuns but it would like to have the
privilege OF saying something of the
kind in a direction &c suit itself with
out the insihuation following from
such papers as the West Virginian and
the Moreantown Chronicle, that 1t is
playing around in the Democratic

Since writing the editorial to which
the State Journal refers, the West Vir-
ginian has learned that the young fell
low of the State Journals town has
made sundry and divers promises,
crossing lis heart in the good old fash

everything inimical to the welfare Of

than eight notorious cases in which
women haze been accused of murder
have been before the courts within the
past few months, the latest being that

familiar to West virginian readers.
There is Nan Patterson, Of unpleasant

Mrs. Sarah Ann Legg, of Clay coun-
~, this State; Mrs. Dave Gibson, Of
Calhoun county; MIS-. Oslo Goodwin,
of Harrison county, and Mrs. Helen

good deal Gf uaudlln sympathy has
been expressed for some of these wo-

answer is simple enough. It win have

Its case before the announcement was

AS matter Of fact, the facts in this
case are perhaps the most remarka;
BILE Of any on record in the State. The
defendants lawyers have known Of
her marriage to Wight ever since
their retention as counsel, but 1t was
kept profound secret as 1t would
give the prosecution its strongest
point, the motive for getting Payton
ont of the way, On the other hand,
the fact of the marriage reached the
ears of the prosecuting attorney sew
eral days ago, but he for special rea-
sons did not want the truth to be
known. According to the West Virgin
la statutes husband cannot give
damaging testimony against his wife,
therefore. Wright, were the marriage
known, could not be used as witness
in the case. Yesterday at noon the
lawyers on both sides and the judge
held consultation on the. subject and
1t was agreed not to let the jury know
anything about the marriage. AS a
consequence, the twelve men who are
10 pass judgment on the charge
against Helen May Payton do not
know that she and Wright are mar.
rled, neither do they know that Frank
Wright has been placed in jail to be
given hearing as an accessory to
the murder of Jacob Payton. They
will, no doubt, be surprised to learn,
after they have reached verdict and
been dismissed, the facts here set
forth and no one will ever know what
effect such knowledge might have
had on the verdict. The case is in
deed most peculiar one and 1t is no
wonder the people are much interest

As TO DARNALL's SUCCESSOR.

Several names have already been
mentioned in connection with the super
intendency Of the Reform School at
Pruntytown since Mr.. Darnall's resig.
nation has taken place. Among
them are W. r. Gorby, superintend-
eat OF the Grafton Public schools. o.
o. Sutton, of Sutton, Braxton county,
and Rev. D. 5. Hammond, now sta
toned at Weston. The Grafton Senti-
eel is pretty strongly in favor of Pro
feEser Gorby and we feel like second
Ing his nomination: Gorby is an ex-
ceIlent man. We have known him
personally forsabouts twelve or thir-
ten years and regardi him as one of
the best men in the State forthe place.
Below is what the Sentinel OF Sat
urday had to say of him:
I'm looking about for a successor
to Mr.. o. E. Darnall as superintend,
ent of the Reform School at Prunty-
town, Governor Dawson will doubtless
endeavor SO far as in him lies to Sc
lect a man who can carry the work on
with the same energy and excellence
as has Mr.. Darnall. The qualifica-
tons for a man $for position so
onerous as superintendent of the Re
form School for Boys are many. The
man at the head of such an institu-
ton should be an educator, a COM
mander; calm, considerate, just, zeal
Gus and religious. Should Governor
Dawson cast his eye gGtaftonward in
search of u successor to Superintend-
ent Darnall, he may find a gentleman
possessed of all the above qualifica'
lions, and u great many beside, We
refer TO Mr.. w. T. Gorby, superintend-
ent of the Grafton public schools. Mr..
Gorby is not native Graftonlan. but
during his residence of several months
in this city he has impressed our peo'
pie very ravorably indeed, and the
manner in which he is conducting the
city schools is indicative of the fact
that he is well fitted for the position
of Superintendent of the Reform
School, should it come his way"

Mr.. Wallace is wrong. Now. in this
connection, we are going to say some
thing. Just read ahead and see If
we don't. The Republican insurgents
have abandoned their fight against

for that statement and every indica,
