WE cannot approve of Governor Glass
cocks action in granting extradition pa
pers for Judge Samuel w. Williams, Of
Virginia. Some months ago, during the
trial Of a case in court in WEIGH, w. Va,
Judge Williams, who is cultured Viz
glnia gentleman and distinguished law
yer being Attorney General-elec for Viz
GINA, was grossly insulted by former
Judge Joseph Sanders. Judge Williams
resented the insult by hurting an inkstand
at Sanders, who is politician of the type
peculiar, fortunately, TO that section Of
West Virginia, and felled him to the floor
Sanders has been nursing his sore head
and his vengeance simultaneously, and
finally concocted scheme for getting
even. He had Judge Williams indicted
for assault by the grand jury in Mellow
ell county, a matter very easily arranged
where every feature of public and private
life, from running saloon to manipula-
ton OF the courts, is dominated by re-
markable political ring, and upon this in
dictment Governor GlaSscock issued his
requisition.
Judge Williams is quite willing to run
the risk OF assassination by return to
McDowell-a risk, by the way, not as re-
mote as it may appear-but he rebels at
the idea of being tired by packed jury
in which ignorant and prejudiced negroes
that have been or viii be selected will sit
on the case. Judge Williams lawyers,
among whom is Hon. Marshall McCor-
mick, announce, however, ihattheir client
will appear at the January term OF court
without the necessity OF requisition and
they will defend him to the best of their
ability.
II may not be necessary TO call out the
militia in this matter, but if Judge VIII
lianis is TO be tried by jury OF his peers
there will have to bea change OF venue
from Mcdowell county.

1T now seems to be lamentable TACT
that DR.. Cook. who claimed TO have dis
covered the North Pole. is the greatest
fakir of the age. When he made his an
nouncement that he had reached the Pole
there were those who doubted it. A few
weeks later, Commander Peary, who
himself had just returned from success
full quest for the Pole, denounced Dr..
Cook as an impoStor. A controversy
was thus started, which has since ragged
furiouSly. Several weeks ago, DR.. Cook
sent his proofs to the University OF Co.
penhaSen, in Denmark, and At the same
time he disappeared from public view,
Tuesday the special committee OF Danish
scientists that had investigated DR.. Cooks
data submitted its report, and expressed
the unanimous opinion that he had given
no proof whatever that he had ever
reached the Pole.
Commander Peary is glad, for he can
now substantate his claim as the only
genuine discoverer OF the North Pole.
But where on this earth can poor Cook
find lodging place?

tGlasscock last week. Mr.. Montague,
who is lawyer and teacher, and is said
to be excellently qualified for the place,
had the endorsement of most OF the lead
ing Democrats and Republicans of the
Greenbrier Valley. One reason given for
selecting him is the fact that his wife, who
is daughter OF DR.. Hunter Mcclure, OF
Richmond, is so well fitted for the duties
of matron, which position has been as
signed to her. Mr. Montague will take
charge the first of the year, when James
