BOSTON-Probaby many readers OF the
older generation will remember Mrs. Flora f.
Barry one of the greatest oratorio singers Of tho
past, who is living in retirement from the public
gaze in this city. Among American singers Mrs
Barry Is the repository of the true tradition OF
oratorio singing. In her prime choral associa
tion was to be found in almost every city of i'm.
portance in the country The popularity of
"Pinafore' had not yet started the craze for ANA
teur opera, and local singers practiced and sang
the chorus parts of the great oratoros.
In the bygons days Mrs, Barry sang in nearly
every state IN the union, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, and from Canada to Old Mexico. In
the retirement from the strenuous existence of
the public singer she finds great enjoyment
though many interests demand from her thought
and labor.

The teachers of Harrison coun-

1t is a representative body, COM
prised of young men and women
in the main who are devoting
themselves to a very essential call
ing in life. No profession is high
er or more useful. to mankind than
the educational one and the welfare
of the nation depends upon that
more than any other profession. Be
cause of this it is gratifying to note
the splendid prsonnel Of tie inSti-
tute and there is satisfaction in
knowing Harrison county Is fortu-
nate in this respect.
The present institute promises
much and there is every assurance
its success will eclipse even those Of
the past in which such excellent work
was done. The instructors r OF
wide and favorable reputation as
educators and the program is of
such high character as to be not
only beneficial in the matter of in
struction and knowledge but also
inspiring and its execution Will
achieve results that will be for the
better not only in the coming year
but also the next decade.
The state having literally pro-
vided for the institute and the in
struction of teachers, it behooves
every one of that profession to take
advantage of the great o%pportuni-
ties presented so well at this insti-
tute and to acquire all the inspira-
ton and knowledge possible in
their chosen profession.

ugurped Of its rights.

Owen S. Mckinney, of Fairmont,
declares that the Telegram was the
only paper in the State that rightly
reported his attitude in the Con-
gressional conventiop-here on the
two-cent rate resolution offered by
Col. Kincaid. This is quite com
plimentary to this paper, but must
be an awful blow to the local DEM

ton arises, why did the local Dem
ocratic paper misrepresent MI. Me

The Democratic congressional

Owen S. Mckinney made a great

Virginia, bat. when it came to a
two-cent fare. the convention did
not think that question was a feder-

but entirely wrong, according to
the vote, to put another state meas

this connection. They will scarce

NEWS ACCUSED CoNvEN-
TION.

The Democratic organ here in re-
porting the proceedings of the con-
vention, charged the Democrats of
the First Congressional district in
convention assembled with being
opposed to a two-cent railroad fare
in West Virginia. Here is what
that paper said:
CATER the reading of the resolu-
tons presented by the committee,
Hon. VIM. M. Kincaid took the
floor and presented two resolutions
as amendments to those presented
by the committee. The first was
to the effect that the sense of this
convention is to demand a two-cent
railroad rate similar to the law now
IN existence in the state of Ohio.
The second was for a demand for a
better tax law, making the assess-
ment and taxation of the poor and
rich alike.
"Hon. o. s. Mckinney, of Fair
mont, opposed the two-cent fare
feature, giving as his reason that it
would have a tendency to hamper
the development of the State in the
way of building new roads.
This brought about a heated DIS
cnssion between the two men but
resulted in the defeat OF the amend
ment."
