In commenting on an editorial In the
West Virginian relative to Democratic
criticism OF Republican administra
tions. the Parkersburg State Journal
says:
"Therc Is no use OF paying much at
tention to the Democrats In these mat
tcrs. Their efforts are likely to ne
more futile in the future thnn they
have been for the past ten years. They
would discrctltt heaven II they thought
they could get office In hell by doing
So"

BERLIN, Jan. 4.-Former President
Castro, of Venezuela, was operated up
on in this city this morning by DR..
Israel, the German specialist, for the
kidney complaint with which he is suf-
fering. The operation is designed to
overcome the effects of an unsuccessful
one performed in Venezuela about a
year ago.
The present operation was regarded
as so dangerous that before submitting
to it Castro caused the following state
ment to be given OUT:
II can only express satisfaction that
this operation is to be performed sc
that the whole world may know l did
not come to Germany in order, to shirk
responsibility, and much less because I
imagined for a single moment what was

through the operation fairly well, and
he is doing as well as could be ex-
pected.
