MAN FROM
LINCOLN COUNTY
AS SUCCESSOR TO THE LATE
SENATOR PORTER, OF LIN.
coLN-DuE TO THE
COUNTY.

HUNTINGTON, Dec. %. = Action
was taken by the Republican Senator
ial committee Of the Fifth district to
fill the vacancy caused by the recent
death of Senator j. D. Porter, of Lin
coin county. During the past few
days the prominent Republicans of
the district have been consulted as to
the selection of Senator Porter's sue
cessor and the committee decided to
act on these recommendations
Under the rotation plan in vogue
in the district, the nomination be-
longs to Lincoln county. AS Senator
Porter had not yet entered upon his
term, the Republicans alk over the
district favor a Lincoln county man
and so informed the committee.
The general sentiment favored hold
ing the election at the earliest possi-
lie moment SO that the district can be
fully represented at the coming ses-
sion Of the Legislature. A convention
TO make the nomination was discussed
but this plan was discarded owing to
the length of time required.
The senatorial committee is com.
posed of Robert Hager, Of Lincoln;
Judge ]. P. Douglass, Of cabell, and
W. K. Hicks, of Putnam A meeting
was held in Huntington to-day, at
which definite action will no doubt be
taken. The committee will not at
tempt to dictate the nomination, but
will be guided by the expressions of
well known party men.
1t is stated that the committee will
ask Governor Dawson to fix January
10 in his proclamation as the date of
the special election. This is about
the earliest day possible, even If a
convention is dispensed with.

.FAIRlIoNT WEST VIRGIlIA SATURDAY. DECEMBER %
No Action On
Gas Question
LAWYERS MADE NO REcoMMEN.
pATloN AT MEETING OF BAR
ASSOCIATION.

E1RlNs, W. Va, Dec. 90 Through
with reports, arguments and the bust,
ness Of the convention which has con,
sumed two days, the delegates to the
West Virginia Bar Association tasted
of the hospitality Of the Randolph
County Bar Association. Congressman
Joseph H. Gaines. Of the Third West
Virginia district, presided. The felicity
Of his Introductory remarks and the
very occasion itself loosened up the
tongues Of the lawyers, many of them
good takers. SO that the banquet from
the first course to the cigars was
marked by running fire Of quips and
1ests that sparkled like champagne.
The menu was the work Of the Hotel
Randolph.
The association, during the morning
and afternoon sessions, concerned It
self with listening to a number of inn
portant committee reports aud recon.
mendatlons, many of them of much I'm.
portance to the legal profession and
the State at large. The association,
after protracted discussion, did not
indorse a change from the system Of
electlng special Judges In cases Of sick
ness. ETC., to an exchange Of judges.
Although indulging in a thorough dis
cussion Of the question Of revising the
election law as to the form Of ballot,
the primary system, prevention of the
waste Of gas, pumping and transpor-
tatIon Of oil and gas west of the State,
the protection of the forests, the con-,
vendon took no further action than
recommending these measures to the
consideration of the legislature.
A report on the pumping and trans.
portatlon Of gas was passed without
any recommendation whatever.
The bar association has lent itself to
raising qualifications for practice of,
law by suggesting that complete edu-
cation in English shall be necessary
before qualifying. The Torrens' land
system came in for a full share Of dis.
cussion, led by Prof. W. P. Wiley. No
action Of any kind, however, was taken
and a recommendation for its adoption
will so over for another year at least.
Ranking in importance and perhaps
outranking and other subject under
consideration in the opinion Of the con.
ventlon, was the question of doing
something to improve the conditions
that now confront the States supreme
court, which is, under present condi-
tions, to dispose of and despatch the
cases that now overtax the judges, and
it was urged that the number of mem.
bers OF the court be increased from
five to seven. Opposition to this was
not strong enough to defeat it and the
association went on record in favoring
a constitutional amendment providing
for the same.
To New Martfnsville falls the honor
of entertaining the association next
year

A bill Of complaint has been filed ii.
The Circuit Court Of Wetzel county by
George w. snider, Marcella snider
and Jackson snlder, plaintiffs, against
the Wheeling Roofing & Cornlce Com
pany, a corporation, and G. C. Jansen,
defendants; and the story 1t tells
reads like novel.
The company has Its principal works
and bushes located In steelton, few
miles from this city, and the corpora
tion was organized August 6. 1900, with
a capital stock of $5O,OOO,which in 1901
was increased to sl5O.0Oo. Later at a
meeting Of the stockholders held in
Wheeling there was authorized the is.
sue OF a series Of two hundred and sew.
enty.ive bonds, one hundred and fifty
Of $500 each and one hundred and
twenty-five of 5000 each, to be secur.
ed by deed of trust.
Solicited Subscriptions,
plaintiffs charge that the company.
was promoted by the defendant, Jan.
sen; that he was elected a director;
that he was authorized to secure sub.
striptlons; and that in his capacity as
an officer he went to the home of the
plaintiffs in Calhoun county and solicit.
ed them to subscribe. The bill recites
t!.at Jansen said the corporation was
Worth $250,OOO; owned its own fuel,
natural gas and coal, anda arge slate
factory in Pennsylvania from which
slate roofs could be manufactured at
large profit to the shareholders; that
the company owned al arge tract OF
real estate In Steelton paid for and
I tnencumbered: that the plant was ruE-
ming at a handsome profit and had
been paying dividends from fourteen
to twenty.eight per cent. and that for
the year 1905, it would pay 25 per cent,
and that the proceeds from the sales
Of capital stock then issued were In
ended for the enlargement Of tire
plant.
Endorsed Promissory Note.
plaintiffs allege that by recourse Of
the promises made they were induced
to buy three thousand shares of stock
at the par value of one dollar each, and
certificates of stock were issued to
them.
Plaintiffs further aver that after the
purchase Of stock Jansen, in 1905, re-
presented to them that the company
had purchased $4,000 worth of ma.
terlal and that 1t lacked $4,000 Of
having the money to pay for the
same; whereupon the plaintiffs, Jack
son E. snider and Marcella snide:,
made and endorsed negotiable prom.
issory note, prepared by Jansen, pay
able at the First National Bank Of Har-
risville, due four months after date,
for the amount, which the plaintiffs
charge was discounted by Jansen and
the proceeds turned over to him.
