now existing in the Second
congressional district of this
state, and
WHEREAS, The citizens of other
counties of said district have
looked with favor upon his can

WHEREAS, By reason of the

lowing the general precedent
adopted by other counties of the
district which have candidates,
to hold mass conventions for the
purpose of selecting delegates
to the nominating convention
at Keyser, West Virginia, April
%, 1905. thereby giving such
home or local candidate an OPP
portunity to see representative
citizens from all parts of the
county at one time and secure
their organized endorsement of
of his candidacy, therefore, be
Mt
RESOLVED by the republicans
of Preston county in mass con-
vention assembled, that, recog,
nizing in Mr.. Lakin those ster-
ling qualities which eminently
fit him for the high office to
which he aspires, we do by this
action most heartily endorse his

evidence to him and to the
other counties of the district
of the confidence reposed in him
by this convention, he is here
by empowered to select his own
delegates, thirty nine in num-
Der, to said nominating conven
ton and certify their names to

fairness with which he has
executed the laws with refer
ence to all interests.
We heartily commend the
course in the national congress
of the United States of Hon. A.
G Dayton during the five terms
he served his people and rejoice
that President Roosevelt has
called him up higher to a seat
on the federal bench. And we
extend to him our congratula-
tions in the matter of his pro-
motion.

following that perchance will land
him the nomination.
In looking at the various candidates
for Judge Dayton's seat in congress,
none of them were above him in force
of character and ability. Mr.. Hetzel
stands pre.eminentIy as the logical
candidate, and should this honor fall
on him, the same degree Of exactness
when characterizes his business rela.
lions will be the chief attribute Of his
congressional career. Aside from his
fitness for the place. geographically
speaking, there is no question bat
what Mr.. Hetzel is entitled to the
nomination. Isolated, az it were.
from the counties beyond the noun.
tains in this district, Berkeley county
has not been sufficiently recognized
in congressional conventions. There
fore, in closing this sketch we wish
to boldly proclaim that Mr.. Hetzel.
true. loyal and patriotic to the party
which he has served faithfully fer
more than thirty years, is entitled
from every conceivable standpoint to
the honor of representing this district
in congress-. 1t is needles to add how
ever, that Mr.. Hetzel has the undivid-
cd support of bis party in this county.

The president made very wise
choice in the selection of Hon. George
W. Atkinson to fill the vacancy on the
court of claims. West Virginia can
boast OF not having a more brilliant,
intellectual and all around citizen
than Nj. Atkinson. Every position
of trust given him has been filled
with credit to himself and honor to
the state. Therefore, in appointing
such man to as high a position AS n
member of the court of claims. the
president made no mistake in the
selection of George Wesley Atkinson.

We present our readers to-day with
a good newspaper picture of Hon.
Ira E. Robinson OF Taylor county.
who is taking an advan ced lead in the
race for the republican nomination
for Congress, having been already
heartily endorsed by his home county,
and having been given the privilege
of selecting his own delegates to the
Keyser convention. Monongalia
county, too, neighboring on Taylor,
appears to have fallen In line and on
Saturday gave Mr.. Robinson at least
twenty-three of the thirty-two dele
gates to the Keyser convention. Bar
bour county, also neighobring on Tay-
lor, held its convention last Wednes-
day, and gave Mr.. Robinson eighteen
of the nineteen delegates. From all
of this it would appear that Mr.. Rob-
inson stands very fine chance of re-
ceving the nomination at Keyser the
Goth inst. aud If so, we are firm in
the DelleI UDdU Nc VIII cOuuuct pro-
gressive and popular campaign for
election, HIS high ability as an orator
admirably fits him to meet the most
powerful factors of the democratic
party of the district, while his success
as an attorney at the leading bars of
the state, coupled with his successful
career in the Senate, create him very
formidable candidate indeed, and one
who, IL intrusted with the nomination
will undoubtedly lead the party to
triumphant victory.

The election OF Judge Dunno to be

BIG POLICY HOLDERS SCHEME.
Will Organize to Make Clean Sweep of
Officials.

Disguised with the Indifference of the
trustees of the New York Life Com
pany and their failure to drive cut Of
the company President Mccall and Vice
President Perkins, number of influential
policy holders in the company have prac-
tically decided to form a policy-holders'
committee, take command of the situation
themselves and make a clean sweep of all
She incompetent and corrupt men connected
with the company.
A subcommittee of these policy holders
had a conference in New York Friday with
one of the best-known corporation lawyers
In the financial district. He advised them
that the proposed move was feasible and
should be undertaken.
He pointed OUT that such a committee
could speedily bring matters to a head by
one of their number going before police
magistrate and asking for warrants for the
arrest Of the responsible persons on any one
or all of the following charges
The Basis for Charges.
FI-st-Forgery in The third degree, based
upon the fact that the books of the New

not contain any records whatever of the
payments to Andrew Hamilton of so 900 by
J. p. Morgan * Co. of $4,000 by the New
York Security and Trust Company and of
$4,000 to George W. Perkins out of the
profits OF a loan to Kidder, Peabody & Co.
Second-Conversion of trust funds which
under the penal code is larceny. This
charge the lawyer said could be based upon
a large number Of transactions disclosed by
the testimony given before the Armstrong
committee.
Third-The giving of rebates, which is a
rnisdemeanor under the penal code. This
charge he said, could be based upon the
admission of Gage L. Tarbeil. vice presi-
dent OF the Equitable, that he made an
arrangement with George w. Perkins, vice
president of the New York Life. for COM

out in the latter company.
