SENATOR 3. i. BAILEY.

% &
The West vfrginian extends con
ordinations to the Hon. 8. F. Bailey,
OF Grafton, who was to-day named as
the standardized OF itns Republicans
Of the Eleventh Senatorial district,
AS his nomination means election by
anywhere from $500 to 5000 majority
he can safely be called senator" from
this time forth. The harmony and
good will which prevailed at to-day's
convention show that thu Republicans
are getting tired Of fighting one anoth.
er and that there is a general feeling
that it is foolish to inspire hope in
the opposition by scrnpplug among
ourselves. The Republican party has
mission to perform in State as well
as National AFFAIRS and the way to
bring about the end st has in ylGsy
is for the members OF the party 10
work in concord and harmony. Mr..
Bailey, the nominee Of to1daEs conven-
ton. is a man of gooi parts and he
will make. a worthy anG crcdital1le rep
resentative in the State Senate. Again.
we congratulate Senator Bailey and
Taylor county on the outcome of To-
days proceedings.

From the above figures it can be
readily seen that West Virginia is just

can State as is Ohio or Pennsylvania
In fact, it is probably more stable and
secure on State issues, for Ohio and
Pennsylvania do elect Democrats to
State offices occasionally. but West Vir-
ginia is getting farther and farther
away from Democracy each year and
shows no sign Of wavertng in the Re-
publican faith on either state of Ma

For some time the names of several

publican leaders have been before the
people for consideration in connection
with, the Republican nomination for

a little early to name the winner
among so many, any Of whom would
emfnently fill the bill, the West Vir-
gfnian sees in Secretary Of War VIM,
H. Taft, of Ohio. the man who at this
time Is fast becoming a popular "a.

O., where she met M. w. Becton, an
elderly gentleman, who had made a
fortune in the manufacture of surgical
instruments. Becton fell madly in love
with the handsome Minnesota girl,
married her and took her to New York,
where he installed her in luxurious
home.
Everything went we'll for time, but
finally Mrs. Becton appears to have
tired of the humdrum existence of o
member of society and started out to
seek diversion.
One night Becton occupied a box at
a theater party where he went to wit
ness the production of a poular comic
opera. He was Mortified to discover
that one of the most attractive and
energetic chorus girls who filled the
stage was his wife, who he supposed
was at home nursing a sick headache.
Then there was a scene which bordered
nearer a tragedy than opera bouffe.
Mrs. Becton, however, was obdurate.
She refused to leave the chorus unless
her husband would settle upon her an
income of $4,000 a year. This he
angrily refused to do, and there for the
present the controversy rests, Mrs.
Becton continuing to appear in the
chorus.

Mohr was Mrs. Becton's name a few
years ago when she was working as a
stenographer in a southern Minnesota
town. She had admirers in plenty and
finally married one of them, a fine
young fellow, whose salary was SIS a
month.
Then they removed to Warren, where
they resided for two years. their resi-
dence there being marked by an eXhi-
bition Of jealousy on the part of the
wife, which is said to have unjustly in
volved young woman of Warren. The
outcome of the episode was the quitting
of Warren by the handsome stenog-
rapher and her husband. Afterward
they moved to Crookston, but remained
here only a short time, then going to
southern Minnesota.
After they left 7Jarren the love of
Vida for her husband apparently

divorced. She then went to Cleveland,

the latter was quickly after him.

Just then a tall, broad-shouldered
man who had not spoken arose and
walked up to the smoker. The train
had almost stopped at station.
You think the dog ought to be put

Yes; he's got no right in here, -
said the smoker.
"All right. then' said the big fell
