the chapter that the alliance was
made on lYafslike lines for the pur-
pose Of beating ElkIns. they made Il
too strong for even the most innocent
and credulons folk who read poll
ties when she Is written. Mann,s
game is a waiting one Time brings
its changes and the senatorial death
rate from govt. land-grab and Stand
ard on bi-produets Is steadily IN
cFeaslng from year to, year. Manri,s
position in this matter is one, which
for smooth wisdom does credit 10 a
chap who has only been playing poll
tiles for four years, which serves to
Introduce the fact that there IS lots
of talk on the part Of down-state
party men in favor Of making fight
to elect United States Senator from
this end of the state. 1t cannot be
denied there Is strong and growing
sentiment that the southern section
of West Virginia should have one Of
the senatorships and, unless there is
something zone 10 check the GROWTH
of this feeling, there may be trou-
Bile ahead for somebody sooner than
is anticipated. / heard this talk be-
fore. back yoader when j. L. cald-
well started out to beat Scott. but 1t
was never as strong and persistent
as It Is now, nor Tipped by as many
people. look for this sentiment 10
grow greatly during the convention Of
the lawmakers ana the politicians
here, and 1t wouldn't surprise me u
great deal II some plans were LAID
and some wires were set TO working,
looking to the realization o: the
down-statc's growing hope to have
one OF their own kith and kin in the
American House of Lords.

NO APPOINTMENT YET
TO MLENDON'S PLACE.
He May Follow One of Two Courses
in His Fight to Win 1t Back.

Atlanta, Ga. Aug. 10.-There are no
in connection with the
removal from office of former Chair
man S. G. McLendon of the Railroad
Commission.
1t is quite probable now that Gov
ernor Brown will not be able to give
the matter consideration at all until
after the Legislature adjOurns, and he
disposes of the many bills which he
will have to act upon.
While the Governor has reached no
conclusion as to his course, there are
many who believe strongly that he
will make an appointment probably
within the next ten days or two
weeks.
1t may be that Chairman McLendon
will institute quo warrantO proceed
ings to determine whether he or the
Governors appointee is entitled to the
office, or it may be that he will sue
out writ of mandamus seeking to
compel the state treasurer to pay him
his salary.
It is said if the removed commits
sioner should seek to compel the pay
ment of his salary, the attorney gen.
eral would be called upon to defend
the suit on the part of the state,
