Christ is the Clue.

DR.. W. G. Moorhead, Of Xenia Theo-
logical Seminary, was once, returning
home from, one, of:;his journeys, and
wanted to take with.him n present for
his children. He selected a dissected
map. When he gave it to his two girls
he said:
"Now, if you can put this together,
you will know more of geography than
if you studied q book"
They worked patiently, but at last
one of them arose, saying:
II cannot put it together"
1t was an awful tumble. They had
part of North America in South Amer
lea, and other mistakes quite as glar-
ing. ,
Suddenly the older girl discovered
that on the other side of one piece OF
the map was a mans hand. Curiosity
prompted her to turn over another
piece, and there was part of his face.
Then her, fingers worked rapidly, she
turned over every piece of the map,
and called to her sister, saying:
Come back! There's a man on the
other side! Let's put the man together
first" ...
Soon the figure of the mar was. COM
pleted, and when the pieces were
turned over, every river and lake. every
mountain and plain, was in its proper
place in the map.
This is the true secret of Bible study.
Find the Man! Recognize His portrait!
Study with Him as the clue. and every
thing will fall into its proper place!-

Democratic Possibilities.

And this notwithstanding the record
breaking republican. majority on joint bal
lot in the last legislature Many republicans
were elected to that body from counties
which gave them only a handful OF votes
to the good. In an off year and with a GER
tain feeling against Senator Elkins, and
likewise the state adm nistration, demo-
cratic possibilities look brighter than in sew
eral years. Everybody seems 10 be rad
ical. With Senator Elkins an ultra-conserv-
ative his reelection Is adverting TO the
question of whether the republican caucus
will be worth while. II the proverbial
ickleness of the public holds good, how
ever, and other developments materialiZe
the clouds may lift after Congress adj
journs.

a boom for Representative Devener's seat,

content with and suspicion of both sena-
tors in the question of railroad regulation,
which has suddenly become a most lively
proposition in this state
Senator Scotts recent speech on the rate
bill, which lined him up with Elkins, pro-
voked a vigorous protest from the repub-
lican state organ, which used II as a text
for serving notice on both senators that
they were flying in the face of their con-
stituency's sentiment and should forthwith
cease firing, stack their arms and trot
along like good boys The rank and file
are plainly at odds with the senators, rather
cheering display of inanition on their
part from the past, yet indicative OF popu-
lar mind workings elsewhere.
Gov. Dawson will have none OF the story
that he and Elkins formed combine when
they took dinner at the senator's WASH
ington home the other day. The gist or
the tale was that Dawson agreed to elect
legislature for Elkins this year, and that
Elkins was to return the compliment at
Senator SCOTS expense when the junior
senator's term expired. Dawson vigor-
ously denies this. He wants a republican
legislature that will pass state railroad
commission bill and perfect hts tax re-
form scheme, but he doesn't want to go be-
fore the people tied up with Senator Ellsins
If Elkins comes satisfactorily out of the
period of probation while the railroad busi-
ness Is on tap he may recover lost ground
but hardly all of 1t.
Insists on His Legislation.
On the final windup Elldns and Dawson
may agree on legislative candidates. but it
can be put down here that Dawson Will not
stand fer any who won't stand for his leg
islative measures. Dawson wants to make
a record as governor. His term will expire
about right to step into Senator Scott's
shoes, and he does not need to get busy for
that succession until the legislative contests
three years hence. With Elkins and Scott
elassed as railroad senator's, and with Daw-
son this year being insistent on commits
sion to regulate railroad evils strictly within
the states province to control, he Is enough
of politician. to see the inconsistency or
an outward conbination which the popu-
lace would be disposed to thump hard.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
WHEELING, w Va. March 10.-After
holding himself aloof from activities for
a year Senator Scott has added to the per-
plexity of West Virginia politics by array
ing himself against the federal administra-
ton S railroad rate program, and he has
thereby unwttingly served to complicate
republican chances in this state to degree
not plea sing to the party workers. AS the
situation stands today, 1t Is believed an ag-
gressive, organized democracy could sweep
W est Virginia in the near future. What is
to happen next November will depend upon
the condition OF the public temperament
at that time. Just now 1t is inclined to an
itching TO smite the powers that be.
West Virginia republicans are afflicted
with a multiplicity OF leadership for the
first time since they came into control of the
state dozen years ago. 1wo years ago
they divided on q state issue and one of
the results was a difference of $4,000 votes
between the pluralities given Roosevelt
and their candidate for governor. Contin-
uance of the friction and feeling between
the same factions promised a merry fight
for the legislature this year until the Presi-
dent forced his railroad rate bill to the
front. This developed Senator Elkins at
titude for the first time in clear outline,
the letter of Gov. Dawson to Senator Till
man, and the prominence to West Virginia
cases of railroad and coal discrimination.
F.anks as Third Senator.
The lawson letter was popularity con-
sidered as reflection on the two West yir-
ginia senators. Indeed, Senator Tillman
is now alluded to by cynical persons as
the senior or third senator from West
Virginia. His being democrat cuts
no figure, for the Dawson letter makes his
credentials good. And that letter turned
from Dawson to Elkins first and Scott next
much of the burden of hostility the gov
ernor had been having monopoly of up to
its writing. II has aroused a feeling Of dis
