IMPROVEMENTS POSTPONED

The congregational meeting at the
First Presbyterian church was well
attended last night. Owing to the
work of founding and building a
new church in East Clarksburg, it
was decided to take no action at
present on contemplated improve
ments at the city church.

The Charleston papers see through
a glass darkly, when they assert that
Col. John T. McGraw is opposed to
the nomination Of Bryan. The fact
is the Colonel will take any old
racer, If he thinks he has a chance
to vim. It matters not what the pedi-
gree may be. The capital city pa
Ders ought to get acquainted with
the Colonel. He is slippery one.

con peserves Hlgher Honor.


The Telegram agrees with the
Charleston News as to the following
about West virginia,s ablest and
most distinguished jurlst, except
that the goyernorship Of the State
would confer no honor on Judge
Con, and his service and eminent
ability certainly command honor Of
national character and not confined
to the State, as the Charleston paper
suggests in a friendly way. yet with
no taste:
1T must be a great pleasure to
General Gotf-we should, of course,
say Judge Goff, but somehow that
other title has an endearing tone
tc have occasional opportunity to
malte public addresses to his fellow
citizens. He spoke to his townsmen
the other day, using for his subject
the Resources of West Virginia. ;
The papers do not print his full
speech, but the Fairmont West vir-
ginian reports the substance of what
he said. Judge Con is loyal West
Vlrginian. He loves his state and
is an honor to 1t.
How he could be utilized in solv-
ing the existing state problems were
he not sequestered away off on one
OF the bypaths of our civic thorough
farei Suppose the party Of his poll
tica! caste had the name of Judge
Con to daily with once in while,
when trying to locate candidates for
this or that high political honor?
How oft would he ind his party
coyly waiting at the church, in
wedding garments clad?
Judge Cor is several times a
millionaire. SO they say. What there
is of benefit in this worlds goods are
surely his His talent has had re-
cognition that ought to be most
highly satisfying. Next to being
the President or yice-president of
his country, or Justice on the SUI
preme bench. he has occupied the
portions of most commanding i'm
portance.
How his name would ring now
as a candidate for governor, There
is not single qualification that the
office demands that he does not pos
sess in abundance. Wouldn't the
crowds swell the meeting places to
hear his silvery voice on the is
suess" --s 49,.
? "And by the way, wouldn't he be
an ideal executive to deal with vir-
ginia in the debt settlement, per-
chance. settlement is ordered?
Judge Con! ali, me, General
Conf"
j. That Judge Coz would fill the
gubernatorial chair we'll none doubt
and that he was rightfully elected to
that once none can successfully deny,
but Judge Con is too big for the
place Name him as President. IL
You want to strike the popular chord
in West Virginia and several other
States.

1t is really unfortunate for the
Democratic party In West Virginia
lhet its leaders are corporation-own-
cd lawyers and the like. and the
Telegram fully agrees with the News
on this point But. will not Demo-

leaders most submissively about con-
vertion and campaign times?

Two very handsome and costly
churches and an expensive addition
10 another are to be built within the
corporate limits this year, besides
proposed churches in the suburbs,
and yet there are some so pessimis-
lie as to say clarksburg is going to
he bad. These are barometers that
deny the assertion.

Charleston. W. Va. Feb. The
bodies Of nine of the victims OF the
explosion Of Tuesday were brought
to the surface yesterday. Seven Of
these were identifleda as:
T. w. Minnier.
John Hamilton. 81
Frank Lowering.
John Morris.
Thomas Crater.
Walter Blake.
Henry Ross.
The latter was q colored man.
Crateer's name did not appear on

We're brought up by Edward Pick
ney, inspector of the mine and the
district mine inspector, who were
the first to go down. Owing to the
laborious nature of the work 1t was
discontinued until such time as the
cage can be used.
Never in the history Of such dis
asters was a more perilous trip
made than that attempted by Pick
ney, and the district mine inspec-
tor, John Absolam. The timbers In
the shaft had been loosened by the
force OF the explosion and blocked
the way. Great icicles had formed
and dropped upon the men contin-
ually, while hidden springs deluged
them with icy water, the shaft was
full Of deadly fumes and Pickney,
exhausted by his long vigil, finally
succumbed after working for time
at the bottom Of the shaft. The
men remained in the shaft for hours
and found 1t a veritable charnel
house. 3}
Sixteen more bodies were recov-
cred from the Stuart mine late last
night. s. 81
The work OF repairing the walls Of
the shaft to permit the cage to de-
scend to the bottom was completed
