the organization the wish for a great
and glorious future.


The ariuous efforts of some of the
Scherr newspapers to make the i'm.
pression that Scherr has enough dele.
gates to nominate him for governor
are amusing. In support OF their
contention they produce figures Sc
tuggled and inaccurate that their
falsity Is apparent on their face to all
men, who are at allsfamiiiar with the
results OF the primary elections and
Iconventions.
Besides, leading men of the state
such as Ex-Governor White, who
possesses wide and ripe political
knowledge OF West Virginia and who
is not given to inaccuracies, express
the confidence that Scherr will not be
the nominee at Charleston. On the
other hand theysdo not hesitate to
predict the nomination OF Mr.. Swisher
with splendid margin to spare.
The real and true figures and these
predictions by men of political OK
|perlence and accurate observation
show how ridiculous are the Scherr
claims.
1t is easy to see the motive they
have in such course. But week
remains until the nominating conyen-
ton, and they hope by these claims
to influence men they know they have
not to vote for Scherr in the conven-
ton.
But. they stop not to'consider the
fact that the men chosen to nominate
swisher will remain true to those
who selected them and steadfast in
the faith of tax reform, of which
swisher is an earnest exponent.

White for Swishcr.

In another column of this issue the
Telegram presents Ex-Governor
Whites views on the campaign for
the Republican gubernatorial nomi-
nation and the certain result at Char
lesion. There is plain evidence in
the interview that Gov. White. the
father of tax reform in West Virginia,
favors the nomination of Swisher for
governor and is not inclined to APP
prove the candidacy of Mr.. Scherr.
There is good reason for this.
Governor White knows the record
and attitude of both candidates as to
tax reform and other policies of the
Republican party. He approves
swisher's record and attitude and dis
approves Scherr's. That ought to be
sufficient for all Republicans who are
in sympathy with low and equal tax
alton and other policies of the Re
publican party in West Virginia.

A Polish miner in No. s at Monon

a live wire while leaving the mine.
He had an anger bit in his hand and
this member was badly burned. For
some reason he thought driver, who
was passing through the heading at

he recovered from his shock, the for

acy and to avoid the possible annoy
ance that may arise from showing n
falsehood to go undenied until by
repetition, It's authors may even come
to believe It is true. the Inteliigcncer

that Messrs c. w. SwIsher and A. G.

Junco, a New Source Of Hardwood.

OhitNOs - ANCW E0ouENC vi 11utuNOOu.
The junco Is the missing link Of
the tree family. Restricted to a sin
gle valley, that of the Rio Grande. m
Mexico and Texas. this tree. with its
small crooked trunk bristling with
thorns, is little known to the outside
world. 1t is popularity supposed to
bear no leaves flowers, or fruit, but
1t really bears all three.
The minute leaves are scale-like.
the flowers very small, and the fruit
Is a tiny berry. 1t is the only known
representative of Its family in the
world. It is not known that the jun
co ever grew anywhere outside of the
valley of the Rio Grande, or that It
ever had relatives close enough to
claim kinship. Some trees, now enar-
ly extinct, had wide range in past
ages-the big trees of California, for
example. which grew all the way TO
the Attic ocean. But the iunco, SO
one place and has always been the
same dwarfed. crooked tree that 1t
now is.
Except as fuel. it has not been put
to any use. Thousands of cords
might be cut in the valley of the Rio
Grande in Mexico and Texas. or
late. however, the growing scarcely of
hardwood has called attention to the
despised junco tree as a possible sub
stitute for some of the more popular
woods, and the result Is surprise to
those who thought the wood had no
commercial value. Clarence A. Miller,
Consul at Matamoras, Mexico, has
called the attention of this govern
ment to the good qualities claimed
for 1t.
The wood sinks In water. In color
1t ranges from brown to black. 1t
receives high and beautiful polish.
fitting 1t to take the place of such
expensive woods as ebony and rose
wood for small cabinet work. The
trunks are so small and crooked that
only short pieces of timber can be
obtained from them. Few trunks ex-
ceed seven feet in length and eight
inches in diameter. The wood is said
to be admirably suited for the keys Of
musical instruments. jewel boxes and
other beureau cabinets, chess men,
checkers, paper knives, knobs and
other small turnery. inlaid work, and
indeed for almost all purposes for
which costly foreign woods. in small
pieces, are now used.
Many of the trees. whose woods are
familiar in the lumber marketsg. be-
long to large families. There are $50
members-they are called species-of
tn pine family, and they are scattered
all ovr the northern hemisphere. The
beech and the oak family have even
more members. and they, too. are
widely scattered. The laurel has over
900. the palm 1000. while the apple,
counting the many varieties. is said to
have more trsr 5000. But the junco
is fighting Its life battle alone on the
dry slopes of Texas and Mexico with
out relative in the world.

More About Denl,am.


Commenting on the Denham-Hub-
bard incident the Charleston Mail
Monday had the following pertinent
remarks in Its editorial columns:
"a man has his, rights notwith-
standing he is In Office. President
Roosevelt preferred certain man to
succeed him and there was no charge
of 'pernicious political activity made
against the thousands of federal Of
flee holders who worked hard and
successfully for the nomination of
Taft. Governor Dawson prefers
Swisher as the Republican candidate
for governor and he is man. enough
to make known his feelings on the
matter. Sherman Denliam has done
much for the Republican party in
West Virginia and especially in Har-
rison county and he is not willing to
sit back and draw his salary simply
because he is an office holder under
the federal government Deuham is
a hard worker with his veins full of
pure. American blood He has his
preferences as to candidates and he
cannot be bought off with office. Had
his activity been in favor of Hub
bard instead of against him 1t is not
likely that the congressman from the
first district would have looked upon
1T as being SO .pernicious:' AS long
as the Republican party is full of
such workers as Denham there will
be no danger of Democratic control
and their activities need not be class
ed as pernicious.
