First Honors Go to Porter
Hardman of the Coun-
ty of Lewis.
ty of Lewis.

MoRGANTroWN, July 25-Porter
Hardman, the West Virginia Rhodes
scholar who completed his three
years course at Oxford this year,
has the distinction OF being one OF
the few American to receive a
FIRST from the Oxford examiners.
Prof Trotter is in receipt OF a let
ter written by Mr.. Hartman July 5
and telling the result of his exam
inetion. At the time the letter was
written practically all the results
had been announced, and Mr.. Hard
man was the only one of the colony
OF Rhodes scholars to receive a
first, the highest honor bestowed by
the faculty.
Mr.. Hardman, whose home is in
Lewis county, took four years Of
work at West Virginia Wesleyan
College and then came to Morgan
town four years ago at the same
time Prof. Trotter came here from
Buckhannon. After a years work
in the university he tried the Ok
ford examinations and was accept
ed, going to England three years
ago last fan. The examinations,
written and oral, which he passed
with such success this spring, COW
cred the work of the entire three
years, as the oxford system includes
neither daily marking nor occa-
sionaI examinations. This test for
the three years full work makes it
so stir that very few firsts are
awarded. Last year hut one of the
scholars received a first.
Mr.. Hardman has sailed from
England for a trip around three
quarters of the world before return
ing to West Virginia. He will visit
Egypt, Palestine, Japan and other
points in the East, reaching the
United States about November 1.
He will then enter the Harvard law
school and will continue his study
OF the law there.

In a Dilemma.

The Huntington Herald Dispatch
shows that Democratic critic of
the Republican tax reform laws has
fallen into dilemma by indorsing
something for which the Republicans
Justly have the credit. Says the
Herald+Dispatch:
II the reduction of the tax rate
from four cents to two and one
half cents was a bad thing. why
jump at the first excuse to give a
Democratic legislature credit for the
reduction? If good thing, it must
of necessity follow that the reduc-
ton from th!rty-five cents to four
cents was better thing. The SUI
preme fact in the case is that
Democratic paper, long used to de-
nunciation of the whole taxation
system established by Republicans,
forgot its training, and. in an I'M
guarded moment, Endorsed what
the Republicans have been doing by
claiming credit for a very small
part of the reform that has been ac-I
complished by successive Repu blican
administrations. The claim of the
Republicans has not been so much
to the point of a reduction of theI
total amount of taxes collected in
the state as it has been to the point
of just distribution of the burden
of taxation. The taxes of the great
majority of the people have been
materially reduced by equalization.
And the wisdom OF the Republican
party in providing a state board of
contfol to take the place of the
cumberson and obsolete system per-
petuated through thirty years of
Democratic rule. saved the state al
most half million dollars during
the first two years under the new
system. And all this in spite OF the
studied opposition of the Demo
cratic newspapers and officers in
Democratic counties. The gold
dust militant will have to guess
again. The Democrats won't admit
the tax system a good thing. They
cannot prove it bad thing. So,
what can the poor fellows do?

foresees situation similar to that
when Parker was nominated for
President. 1t pays it's respects to
Governor Harmon of Ohio in a
meaning way although it does not
mention his name. and it shows no
mercy toward the West Virginia
machine behind his candidacy. At

were loyal to him in his last two
campaigns, the Record says:

OF the aVowed candidates. for the
Democratic nomination Tor Presl-
dent has the support OF All the corr
porate Interests and big machine
politicians throughout the country.
He apparently has behind him the
same influences that forced the
nomination OF Parker upon the
party. And we make no doubt thar
every disreputabie politician and
every scoundreI who is in politics
solely for the purpose of augment
Ing his own bank account through
out the breadth and length Of this
state Is for this particular Candi-
date. Every man who was a.party
to the commission OF that well
known political crime of our last
democratic legislature is for him.
II there be in the state any men of
the above character who are not for
this candidate we at least have
failed to hear from them.
I'VE want to appeal to every
good, honest, stalwart Democrat in
this section OF the country or within
range OF our influence to prepare
himself to hight the consummation
of the plan that is now being COM
Ecocted by the political -knaves and
IlA1drich Democrats to send to the
national convention a delegation
pledged to support reactIonary
and a man who is not in sympathy
with the principles OF true De-
lmocracy."
Such expressions as herein quoted
arc alarming the paid press OF the
democratic state machine to the ex-
tent of leading them into writing
appeals to Democrats to EN to-
gether and to stand by the major
ity rule. The paid press hopes by
such appeals to make the impression
that the rank and file shall name
the delegates to the national con-
vention. The paid press knows
that the machine will not tolerate
any thing of the kind. Its Charles
ton correspondent said as much only
week or two ago and there has
been no retraction of his statement.
II is generally accepted that the
hog combine otherwise known as the
democratic state machine has made
deal with Harmon and every fol-
lower of Bryan can set that down
as real truth. Knowing this such
oily bait as is contained in paid press
editorials to get together will not
cause Bryan men in this state to nib
BILE even. They are no suckers.

IN the last issue OF the Commoler
Wifliam J. Bryan accuses Governor
Harmon, OF Ohio. OF boiling the
Democratic national ticket, when
Bryan was running against the late
William Mckinley for President,
while Harmon was member of the
Cleveland cabinet. Perhaps, this is
the reason certain element of the
Democratic party is for Harmon for
President as it is told that that ele-
ment always did like to support the
Republican ticket, and, OF course
it naturally is friendly to any Demo
cratic aspirant for the Presidency
who supported the Republican party
in national elections. But the Bryan
element of the party in this state
will have to be reckoned with.
