ny out the policies of President Roose-

In my opinion, 1t would be great
thing If the Republicans OF the state of

HON. WALTER PENDLEToN

The Democrats of West Virginia
can point with pride and confidence to
the ability and standing Of their nom
inees for the supreme court Of appeals.
This part Of the ticket is, without ex-
ception. made up Of men of profound
erudition and marked practical ability.
Few men measure more fully up to the
true judicial stature than Hon. Walter
PendIeton. of Roane county, one Of the
men chosen by the Democracy for this
exalted position. A virginian by birth.
Mr.. Pendleton came to this state and
located In Roane county twenty-slx
years ago, and at once established
himself, at the head OF his profession,
as an able lawyer and profound jur-
list, which fact Is known to some Of the
ablest lawyers OF this state who have
measured lances with him In many OF
the circuit courts and the supreme
court Of appeals of this state. His
practice has not been confined to Roane
county alone. but for many years has
extended into the counties Of Calhoun.
Gilmer. Writ. Wood, Tyler. Wetzel,
jackson, Mason, Kanawha. Cabell. LIN
ccin and Clay, the supreme court Of
appeals and the federal courts OF this
state. Mr.. Pendleton possesses all the
requisites and qualifications OF good
Judge AS a lawyer. he stands among
the very hest In the state. and IL elect
ed will make an ideal Judge able, hon-
est, and bold enough to proclaim the
law as 1t Is without favoritism or par
TALLY. Politically Mr.. Pendleton Is .
Democrat OF the old school. and was a
Democratic nominee for congress In
the old Fourth district OF this state In
1896, running against that able Judge
and iurist, Warren Miller. reducing his
majority OF two years previous about
1860 votes.
Judge Pendleton's election means
dignity. honesty and ability In the
supreme court Of appeals, and would
materially aid in making our supreme
court Of appeals one OF recognized
ability throughout the country. and q
recognition, by the Democratic party
and the people OF this state. Of ster-

meeting more fully the requirements
of the ideal candidate

Senator Ellsins insists that he did
not peremptorily demand the nominal
ton of Collector Glasscock He de-
clares that he would have been salts
fed with Ira Robinson or Fred Blue.
And we believe it. Senator Blue is at
present one Of Elkins' attorneys. a
colleague Of Glasscock's in looking
after the legal affairs of the senator
Judge Robinson was, not so long ago,
in the same category. Doubtless any
one of his attorneys would have salts
fed Elkins. But for some reason suffi-
cient unto itself he preferred Glass
cock, and Glasscock was chosen
