There is no valid ground of obiec.
ton that can be urged against the
election Of William E. Glasscock as
governor of West Virginia.
From a partisan standpoint, he is
entirely worthy Of this high honor.
He has for years done yoeman ser.
vice in building up the Republican
party and making It great, vital. de-
veloplng force in this State; not as
a politician, but as one OF its leaders
in thought and policy and its cham.
pions of those great principles that
have made orr country the greatest
nation on earth and our State one of
the greatest in the union.
But It Is as man that his qualities
OF heart and mind stand out most
conspicuously and compel the greatest
admiration from those who know him
best.
He Is man who never stopped to
trtckery and fraud to attain any end.
What he is, he has become by his own
honest endeavors and as a result OF
just and righteous conduct in the line
of duty.
He is a man OF high political and
civic ideals. II he has one character
isttc which, must impress those who
know him more than another, It Is his
innate sense of Justice and fairness,
and his readiness to thoughtfully hear
all sides In, any controversy and to
give due consideration to all interests
involved.
Having known Mr.. Glasscock per
sonatly for a number of years and OBJ
served his conduct both In private and
public affairs. unqualifedly give him
my support for governor, because I
believe that he is safe. sane and sin,
tere, and that he would administer
that office faithfully and firmly, &C.
cording to the dictates Of HIS own de.
llberate conscientious Judgment, al
ways considerate of the best inter.
ests Of the whole people and free
