popular demand no sound reason can
be given for refusing to submit an
amendment to the Constitution to the
States for ratification. The very spec

stubbornly refusing to let the people,

question goes far to prove that direct

MR.. HAZELTON AND THE
COUDREY GAS BILL.

Members of Congress, before whom
are pending two important measures
concerning the Washington Gas Mo-
nopoly, cannot but be impressed y
the peculiar circumstances attending
the action of the House District Com
mittee in dropping the Coudrey substi-
tute gas bill Immediately upon dis
covering that it was Just what the
gas companies wanted.
The statement OF Representative
Borland of Missouri that George c..
Hazelton, attorney for The Times at
the gas hearings, had represented him
self as still working for The Times in
the interests of the Godfrey substi-
tute-as a matter of fact, he did not
in any sense then represent this newspa-
per-hss done much to clear up the
atmosphere The statements of Rep
rescntatIve COudrey of Missouri have
also had a clarifying effect He SAYS
Mr. Hazelton gave him the bill, which
he offered as a substitute in commit
tee, with the statement that it was
what I'VE" wanted to get through.
knowing that Mr.. Hazelton had repre-
sented The Times at the hearings, Mr..
Coudrey yery naturally supposed that
the -'we' meant The Times. He took the
bill on Mr.. Hazelton's saySo and of
fered IL TO the committee, which took
Mr.. Coudrey's word for the measure
aud approved it.
The Times wishes it distinctly I'M
derstood that Mr.. Hazelton was not
then in its employ. He was hired to
appear at the gas hearings and make
arguments for the original resolution
preventing stock exploitation. When
h had done this work he was paid
ard his connection with this newspaper
ended.
Mr. Hazelton certainly acted in bad
faith with Mr.. Coudrey and Mr. Bor-
land, if he Permitted them to believe
he was still in the employ of The
Times. If what these gentlemen
charge is true he also acted in bad
faith with The Times, for he knew
the views of this newspaper on the
question of gas legislation and is pos
sessed of sufficient intelligence to diff.
ferentiate between them and the pro-
visions of the bill which he gave Mr.
Godfrey to present r. the committee.
Another peculiar circumstance con
nected with the bill for which Mr.
Hazelton stood sponsor IS the fact that
j, is almost identically the bill which
Richard II. Goldsborough, counsel fol
the gas companies, has been advocat
ing ever since The Times started it:
campaign for cheaper gas and fol
regulation of the gas companies.
When the bill was exposed in these
columns it struck the members of tn,
House District Committee as strang,
that The Times should oppose a bill
which its supposed lawyer had sent
them. It also seemed strange that al
examination of the bill should demon
Etrate that it was just what the ga
companies wanted. Being unable t.
reconcile the belief that it was Fhr
Times bill with the discovery that /
was really favorable to and favored By
the gas companies, the committee quit
naturally chucked the bill into tn,

JANUARY FORECAST
AS Predicted By Peter r. Smith, the
"Old Reliable"

January will open cold and fair in
western and central parts. However,
in eastern sections the winter storms
will be dispensing. This wave of dis
turbance will be in progress from the
I'd or Sd to the 9Th, embracing all sec
tons.
On the I'd or Sd a change to warmer
will prevail. Feathery white clouds will
show up in the west and southwest,
on or touching the 4th A wave of dis
turbance will start in the southwest.
While on its passage the temperature
will be quite warm, attended with
rain and snow in central parts. The
showers will be attended with winter
thunder. The rain will be general.
Colder will follow the heels of the storm.
Changes to warmer will show up on
the 10th, 18th, and 18th. Then rain
and snow-furrles will be on passage
eastward. On or touching the 18th
changes to colder will prevail in central
and northern parts. On or touching
the 14th the weather will change to
warmer.
From the l4th to the 10Th storm
wave will be on transit in the different
sections of the country till its force is
exhausted in the east. reaching the At
lantic. This storm-wave denotes par
oXysm of storms following each other
during the period. Rain and snow will
prevail in the different sections accord
ing to the temperature. A much inten-
sified cold wave will follow the storm.
On the 22d, 23d, and oath the weather
will advance to warmer, resulting in
cloudiness, then to rain and snow This
disturbed spell will lead up to a pro-
longed period of kerry disagreeable
weather reaching to the end of the
month.
A storm-wave of much rigor will
formulate in the southwest about the
oath or 25th of the month and be on
transit to the Both. This wave denotes
the most intense storms of any of the
month or the most destructive of the
winter. Rain, snow and sleet, driven
by fierce wind from the northwest
equal to blizzard. will prevail. Tele-
graph and telephone wires and poles in
many places will suffer much from this
storm, and also timber and shrubbery
will be covered with ice in many places.
The cold wave following the storm on
or touching the LIST of February will
reach far into the south.

their course is to be commended; but if
1T is done simply to create dissention
and lead to bitter fractional fight it
should be condemned. Time will deter
mine the object of the gentlemen who
are making known their preferences
through the medium of the Democratic
organ. Up to this time the various
gentlemen proposed have not signified a
willingness to enter the field They are
all Republicans who would fill the
mayoralty chair with credit and their
names would receive, as they should the

A contest like that being made by
Mr.. Charles H. Torsch would not hurt,
but help, the party, regardless of who
may be nominated. His is clean fight
and above board and his sincerity is not
questioned. 1t is to be hoped that
other public-spirited citizens will come
to the front and submit their names to
the Observation-Disclosures American.

BROUGHT BACK AND IN JAIL.
Lester Warwick, Convicted of Man
slaughter and Paroled, In the Tolls. |

Lester Warwick, who was convicted
about two years ago on the charge of
manslaughter, having taken the life of
Amos Broadwater in fight which Oc-
Cured at Bond Junction, and paroled by
Judge Robert r. Henderson upon con-
dition that he pay the widow Broadwa-
ter 500 each month for the term of
three years and also that he report to
the Court at each succeeding term, is in
the Garrett county Jail, having violated
the terms of his parole
When Warwick was paroled he prom
ised the Court that he would comply
with every provision of his parole. His
father, who is a cripple, became his
bondsman and it was at his instance
that the young man was placed under
arrest, the son having paid the stipula-
ted sum but two months since his con-
yiction.
The prisoner was located in FaYette
county, W. Va, where he was working
in a lumber camp. He was placed I'M
der arrest by the authorities there on
Friday afternoon and Deputy Sheriff
Shartzer arrived here with the man
who will be held in Jail until he receives
his sentence by the Court
