INC Released Convict.

Thomas lyman, warden of the
Colorado state penitentiary, does
not believe in punishment for re-

the current Success Magazine as
declaring that imprisonment is nos
society's revenge upon the offending
individual. but society's EFFORT TO

time. The penitentlary that re-

a peniocratIc View.

The entire Democratic press OF the
state has not yet been subsidized
by the special interests and their
representatives nor have several
Democratic newspapers yet put
themselves in that other class whose
silence indicates either contempt or
cowardice. For instance, the Pan
Handle News. a strong Democratic
newspaper, lays the blame where 1t
belongs in the failure OF the legis-
lature to enact primary election leg
isIation. As shown ny the following
the News vigorously denounces the
sins of the Democratic members OF
the members of the legislature as
follows:
The extraordinary session OF the
legislature adjourned sine die Tues

without passing a primary election

TRAINS LATE
Because a Conductor is Left
Behind in a Moundsyille
Restaurant.

Various reasons are given these
DAYS why the Short Line passenger
trains run late, among them being
the heavy coal traffic. An extraor-
binary reason is given why the
train coming in Monday night was
tE:rty-five minutes late but it is
vouched for. The Ohio river train
caused the delay. the conductor OF
that train having been left behind
in a restaurant at Moundsvllle- The
train crew knew it was time to go
and away the train went without
conductor TIE conductor, finding
himself without n train, used the
telephone and the train was stopped
twelve miles out OF Moundsyille. a
freight engine was pressed into SER
vice to convey the belated conductor
to his train and all this caused
delay OF thlrty-five minutes, The
short Line waited fer the delayed
connection and that made It thirty
five minutes late. too. 1t Is said
that the Ohio river conductor said

Advertising.

The Saturday Evening Post pays
the following tribute to the value
OF advertising:
Advertising is a salesman that Is
always at work. but never wearies
9. customer; that calls on the same
man until he IS convinced. but never
annoys him with his insistence5 that
wastes no time. wastes no words,
and that can always gain an audi
ence and a hearing. Alone among
statesmen, advertising has free ae-
cess to the libraries OF President
Taft and Mr.. Morgan; it marches
unchecked past the secretary OF the
big merchant and enters without
hindrance the store of the retailer.
When IT cannot tell its story to
man In his office, 1t can always
gain attention in his home. No
country IS so remote, no village is
so dead, that it does not go there
for orders and gets them.

such fearful exemplification in the

No one doubts that Judge Nathan
CON could be the next governor OF
West virginia. 1t ali depends upon
himself AS the Parkersbprg State
Journal says. the trouble about
Judge Con for governor IS that he
viii not consent to be nominated,
and II he were nominated without
this he might consent.
The wheeling InteIligeneer calls
him the ideal candidate and com
ments on the situation in a way
that impresses the party with the
thought that no mistake should be
made in selecting the candidate
next year for governor or the
United states senatorship. The In
says:
in the columns OF the state
press we hnd more or less mention
of Judge Nathan Con as possible
candidate for governor or for the
United states Senate. Judge Con
has not authorized the announce
ment of his candidacy. In the
course of. many conversations with
leading public men in this state he
has shown disposition to listen IA
vorabIy to the suggestion that he
should be a candidate for one or
the other OF these positions. 1t is
perhaps unnecessary to say that no
other man in West Virginia has so
strong a hold upon the affections or
the people of the state as Nathan
Con. No other man could so har-
monte and weld into an affective
fighting army the entire membership
of the Republican party in this
state. 1T would be useless to speak
of Judge GoTs qualifications for
high office. He is the one man in
West virginia who stands head
and shoulders above all rivals 1T
is the duty of the Republicans OF
this state to put their best men for
ward next year. 1t is not time
for trihers, for joke smiths, and fer.
men of questionable character. To
regain control of the House of Del
egates and to hold our own in the.
state senate, a revolution must be
brought about,
Judge Con would be the ideal
candidate. With him in the fore
front of battle. there would be no
question of the result"
Tt is highly improbable that Judge
Con would consent to make the
race for governor. and only party
patriotism would induce him to run
for the United States senatoship as.
he has often let it be known that he
has no desire to be a senator.

players and fans, and 1t should result Tn the donation to Walker of percentage of the receipts of one or more games in the Southern league next season
 Bert Maxwell certainly did his part in getting up money for Walker, put the other ball players in the league were cheap and stingy with their finan- cial aid. The list of ball players con- tributions showed that the Anniston team had given as much as the Pell- cans. and that was the small sum oI either s20 or $s0 Other teams in the Southern league gave less-Sl or Sl.oo tc the man.
 Ball players stick up for union sal aries. but they are not very partleuiar about providing the union benefits.
 As rule the clubs are as liberal as they could he expected to be, though there have been a number of cases in which clubs get out of doing the right thing by crippled ball players by using the lea gue's salary limit as an alibi.
 Maxwell took up collection on only one day In New Orleans, and that at a week day game, and he reeeiVed more money than any other city contributed, though Bert worked Birmingham and several other towns for many days.
 Jay Kirke played his first game with the Boston Beans Tuesday afternoon, and Otto Hess is likely to go into the box one day this week
 Local fans will keep their eyes peeled on these. two. as most of them figure that Kirbe and Hess will stick ip the big show this time.
 Kirke showed a lot of class here as a second baseman, though some of the ,eough edges we're still there when he left here. Jay has a lot of natural ability and though somewhat of a freak hitter he, should develop into con sistent major league clouter.
 There was never time that Hess didn't have the arm to stick in the majors. The trouble before was with his dome. He didn't attend to business quite as strictly as the majors required
 The three years Hess has spent down here have made him a far more valua- ble man than when he first came, so he goes back better pitcher than when he left there.
 If Hess shows the kind of form he has had the last month he should win a few games for the Beanies before the season is over. That will at least give them a new sensation.

tai was not enough to decently mod ar arbitrator
 .On their last legs, financially, the club owners selected Johnny Dobbs, who foi reasons that have never been fully ex- plained made failure in Chattanooga, as next pilot of the club and how snobly he fulfilled their expectations is shown by a glance at the final standing of the teams The credit due Dobhs should be even bet ter appreciated when it is taken into con sideration that he formed a winning com binatlon without the aid of a veteran nucleus, with only raw and iintried ma terial."
 New Orleans Item: Do vou see Charley Franks hand in the proposed purchase of the Atlanta baseball franchise by Connie Mack of Philadelphia?
 It's a wonder that somebody hash already suggested that Charles Is the lad who is conducting negotiations. He has had something to do with so many of the changes in ownership in the South- erll league. and has been such a good friend of Macks, that 1t Is rather nat ursl assumption
 Il Charley does put through a deal of that kind, whether he is personally bene- fitted or not, the whole Southern league will have cause for qualification.
 Atlanta hasn't been good bah town for about three years,- and for no other reaso than that the Atlanta public has beer very sore on the management Of tie club. We used to hear much about big dividends over there al this season of the year, but now it's a whim about losing season.
 Ever since they fired Billy Smith for squeezing expensive lemon juice into the teams ice water things have been going badly in one of the best ball towns n the country, and the man that restores old time conditions in the Georgia me- tropols will be worth pension Tor the rest of his life from the Southern league
 While right nice little sum was tnfned over to the unfortunate Seotty Walker who was put permanently out of the game by one of Bert Maxwells pitches in a New Orleans game, the eeneht games over in Atlanta didn't produce much of the money.
 Three games were scheduled. One had to be called off because only a few of the players that were called on went TO Atlanta, and one of the two games played drew only 50 persons to the ball park.
