earnestly favor its continuance by the

In connection with the state .'re-
Ristration law" the Wheeling
Register says:
"The first election held under
the new registration Law, which
was prepared and passed by the
Dawson machine as mere make
shift, proves it to be one of the
nest silly pieces of legislation ever
enacted in West Virginia.
1.-THE registration law sccom-
plishes nothing. except to make
trouble for the voters. 1t is inef-
fective. inasmnch as a man may
vote whether registered or not
But it places power in the hands
of unscrupulous controllers of the
election machinery. which could
be used to disfranchise many legal
voters, omit many names from the
registration liste, and then by com.
polling voters not registered to se-
cure sfidavits of two men each to
prevent many of them from voting.
"The Law is lacking in any pro-
vision to enable voters to get their
names on the lists if they have
been overlooked The aesessorp,
having completed their work, are
not required to establish head
quarters at any time OF place, and
the man who is not registered .is
put to expense aud inconvenience
in every instance. If be is defer.
emit, the result lie determination
not to vote at all.
THE registration Law is cow
ardIy mskeshift prepared to serve
the PARTISAN ends of the state ma
onine. If they had been honest
and earnest in their purpose to give
q registration law such as the vot.
ers of the State demended they
would have made payment of the
capitation tax prerequisite to the
right to vote, but that would have
deprived them of the negro vote.
upon which they rely solely for
their msjorities in West Virginia"

COMPUTATION Of Insnrance Cos

Compln1tlou OF 1uoutanco G0hs
The Incorporating of the Noun
tain State Insurance company of
Charleston and the Indemnity In.
surance company of Huntington in
with the newly organized Colonial
Casualty company gives to the new
company beginning of their bust
ness life an amount in premiums
greater than any other company in
the state.
In buying the insurance interest
of the Mountain State Insurance
Company foIty-thousand dollars in
premiums were acquired. An
amount of twenty thousand dollars
was acquired in buying the Indem-
nifty Insurance Company's inter
ests. This totals at the big sum of
sixty Thousand dollars and plans
are being made by the officers of
the new company whereby this
amount will be doubled during the
coming years campaign.
The Colonial Casualty Company
will make q speciality of three kinds
of insurance. These will be DOM.
meroial, railro ad and industrial in
surance. The Mountain State in.
suranoe Company made a speciality
of industrial insurance and by ac-
quiring their interests the Colonial
Insurance company CONTROLS the
insurance taken by nearly all the
miners in the O. & o. and Fairmont
GOAL fields.
The Colonial Casualty Company
as at present organized, is an in.
oorporated compsny. starting with
u paid up cash capital of 100000.
In the ttioial roaster, DIR. L. V.
Guthrie. of Huntington has been
made president; Peter Silman. a
we'll known Charleston business
man and former state treasurer, has

The nsw company presents the
interests of the Mountain State In

nifty Insurance Company. Added
to these assets it will begin an az.
gressive policy of its own and will
make third speciality of CONNER
cial insurance. The organic atom
is very strong and has in the view
of prominent business men of the
state, the very best of prospects,

Not Approved.

The present journey of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to Panama, passing
en- route entirely around the leland
of Cuba. is without precedent, and
has some serious objections AS a
matter of course, technically and
from q legal stand point he will be
always in United States territory,
whether on board ship of wer OF
on the Isthmus. But that is not
the real point of popular objection
1t is that the chief executive
should run no unnecessary risks to
bis person. Accidents ntf in
frequently OCCUR on shipboaId OF
elsewhere. ind although every pre-.
caution will he ken, still there is
an element of danger fully recog.
nized. Many did not approve of
the president making his expert.
mental dive in a submarine last
summer. They are not pleased at
this journey now in progress.

was the paramount issue in the
late election. He and his cabinet
and every Republican stumper and
newspaper echoed the thought.
And in addition they moved
every available lever and pulled
every string TO the end that the
great party msjority in the house
of representatives might be pre-.
served. Nothing just like it was
ever known in the history of the
republic. And the people made
reply by cutting the Republican
msjority in twoI But Mr.. Roose-
welt has his Republican house. It

uous among the missing cCleary
of Minnesota is another. So is
Babcock of Wisconsin. Hull and
Lacey are also missing at roll call.
The latter served eight terms, only
to be dropped by the people Poll

better upon the new house than he
could on he,last in respect to de-
ing his biddinzP We doubt it.
