Finely Equipped.

Some men attain education and
some have 1t thrust upon them. AS
a general thing those of the former
class attain 1t by actual. hard-work-
ing achievement and those OF the
latter class do not always attain 1t
even when it is thrust upon them. In
other words one man gets 1t by dint
of earnest exertion and the other
does not care hang whether he ac-
quires the knowledge that is deemed
to be essential to him in his life's
career. This is true whether the
man in his youth was sent off to a
college or university by indulgent
parents or he is left to dig 1t all out
for. himself. Both have the oppor-
tunities and, in the long run, 1t re-
mains with the student himself
whether he is going to acquire the
stock acknowledge he ought to have.
In some cases the earnest, striving
student who is unable to obtain the
ADVANTAGES OF Il university education,
manages to earn 1t and in some cases
the one who Is favored with the lux
uries of wealth finally becomes
ashamed of his indolent, pleasure
loving existence and buckles down to
work. But no matter how 1t comes
about. the student must pay the
price for the prize.

ANOTHER MURDER
NOW CLEARED UP
As the Result of the Confession
Made by Frank Johnson,
Alias Eddie Walton.

Frank johnson or Eddie Walton
confessed that in November, 1906, he
murdered a white woman on South
Sycnth street, SteuberSine, o. A
search has been pushed among the
negro residents of the section with
the result a murder of nearly two
years standing has been cleared 1t is
believed. Nearly two years ago a
negro woman, light in color and rath-
er prepossessing who was generally
considered to be Syrian by those
not acquainted with her history was
found dead in Warren township. The
manner of her death was mystery.
For a time she lived with a negro
named johnson, who beat her shame
fully upon number of occasions pre-
vious to deserving her. Negro resi-
dents claim the Johnson who COM
mitted that murder was the johnson
who was hanged Friday at Mounds
vile and should 1t be true, which the
Steubenville authorities believe
thoroughly, all but one of the muir
ders confessed to by the man before
his death at Moundsville have been
accounted for. 1t is barely possible
all will be cleared up as work along
that line is being continued.

RECEIVER NAMED

Other Counties.

GRAFTON. July 1s-The w. II.
Bailey Lumber Company, one of
Grafton's best known firms of the
kind. is in the hands OF a receiver
the appointment having been made
by. Judge John H. Holt, upon appli-
cation of w. II. Bailey, member OF
the firm and generally recognized as
its head. Mr.. Bailey was appointed
receiver and gave bond in the sum OF
$4,000 with the Citizens Trust Il
Guaranty Company of Parkersburg,
as surety. The company has several
mills located in West Virginia, prin-
cipally in Randolph county, and the
chief reason. 1t is understood. for

about to be sold out under execu-
tions in Randolph county. The com
pany is incorporated and does a large
business.

The Platform md Ticket.

The Republican state platform is
an enunciation, to which every hon
est and patriotic Republican in the
state can subscribe with good con-
science. Vital issues are dealt with
in practical manner and without
class or other distinction. The en-
actment and enforcement OF such
policies, as every man knows, can
but prove beneficial to the people
one great and prompting desire OF
the Republican party, which has done
so much in an earnest and capable
manner to develop the state.
TIE men who comprised the men,
bership of the convention which
adopted the platform are all earnest
men, who want to see their state go
forward, and their action was not
governed alone to promote party well
fare but they were more concerned
about the welfare of the sNte, and
governed themselves accordingly.
AS the result of their deliberations
on set of resolutions there was pro-
duced the platform as adopted and
the enemy has not yet essayed to find
flaws in it.. Nor will the opposition
be successful in persuading the people
that 1t is weak or vacillating. To the
contrary those who oppose the Repub-
lican ticket must concede that the
platform is magnificent state COM
pendulum, covering all the vital issues
in the state and dealing with them in
a manner, which is ideal in the best
interests OF the people collectively.
1t is by no means partisan produc-
tion but is distinct and Individual in
the tirmness and aggressiveness of
Its attitude.
All who have read it, and the pity
of it is that some designing former
party papers have not had the cour-
age to publish 1t fearing its approval
by the people for Its plain honesty
and unvarnished truthfulness and
positive correctness in the handling
of issues of the day, pronounce 1t a
platform worthy the support Of every
honorable, fair-minded and patriotic
citizen Of the state.
With such a platform to stand on
a far less stalwart ticket than the one
selected at Charleston would stand
every chance to win and with the
superior ticket now in the field there
is assurance that the platform will
prove most effective and the ticket
gloriously triumphant.
In short, the platform merits the
support of every citizen of the state
and will receive big majority of the
votes, and the ticket with such plat
form is not only safe but 1t is also so
strong that there need not be the
slightest fear entertained that 1t will
not be elected overwhelmingly.

Stuart F. Reed. Of this city, we see
Ia man who has actually acquired
craftsmanship knowledge by persis-
tent and earnest endeavor. After
having acquired some education in
his local schools and by assiduous ap-
plication to his studies, Mr.. Reed
taught school in Harrison county,
and, saving his earnings. he sent him
self on to college. First he attended
the Fairmont state normal school and
then he sent himself to the highest
school OF learning the state provides,
the university at Morgantown. But
a college diploma did not mean to
Mr. Reed that he then could rest his
oars and take serene view OF life
with the notion that he had reached
the final goal. Mr.. Reed was a
Woodworking student when he at
tended the university, but he is a
student yet. He still studies, not
only books, but man and their condi-
lions, mems achievements In the
world of endeavor, and especially men
and their relation to the body polite.
At his home in this city he has a
magnificent library, not in quantity,
but in quality, and there is no more
observing and painstaking student OF
human affairs in this state than he.
He is well informed upon all subjects
required of statesman. In fitting
himself for position Of distinction
and Of achievement he has paid the
price of honest, persistent, energet-
ic toll.
Long since, Mr.. Reeds numerous
friends recognized the fact that he
had fitted himself for position such
as he now seeks and as result he
was made the nominee of the Repub-
lican party for secretary OF state, an
Office which he will fill with great
If he is elected. And the
people of. West Virginia can find no
better qualified West Virginian for
that Office than Mr.. Reed.
