Col. ]. d. Butt one of the most popular
men in West Virginia, was talking in the
Raleigh lobby last evening of some Incl
dents in the life of his warm personal
friend. the late William L. Wilson.

Elected credit on the State. 1t may not

had he agreed to support the bill appro-
priating 81, 500, 900 for the Chicago Ex-
position. The Speakership was alluring,
but he absolutely declined to be a party
to any deal, deeming it compromise of
his honor. 1t would be better for the
country if there were more public men of
his nobility of character"
