sM RE THE RELEASE OF THE RI GOV.
ERNoR's MESSAGE,

- NN@SSf $50
The blunder OF the House Of Dele
CAKES In not calling for Governor Daw-
Hau;s message on the first day OF the
session. according to custom, has ca,ls-
ed quite a little stir, inasmuch us most
OF the afternoon daily papers were too
Tar along with their editions to mold
the message out OF their Wednesday
issues. The Yves. Virginian used
about nine columns OF the message and
nf course It takes a great deal OF time
TO set that march matter. No word re-
ganding the holding Of the message
was received from the governors Of
dee until $3.50 p. M, the usual time Of
going; to press. " Anyone acquainted
with newspaper work knows what It
sFould mean } to throw out inine lcol-
t1nr,s Of live matter ut press time. it
would mean no paper for two or three
hours after the usual time of publ.
cation. The Clarksburg Telegram,
which wasn't using nearly SO much Of
the message Us this paper had In type,
accuses the papers which used the
message with breaking faith with the
governor. II the Telegram had wait
ed for release from the governors Of
.ace 1t could not have used the mes
cage yesterday evening, judging from
the release received by the West Viz
ginian. Our message Of release was
received this mprnlng about eight
o'clock and It was not received at the
local telegraph Office until G:2l o'clock
last evening, nearly three hours after

It received its RELEASE message? Won.
