MAKING CRIMINALS BY LAW.

In the Ohio County Criminal Court
Saturday. five young offenders, none
OF them more than twenty years old,
and three OF them mere boys of II or
Is were sentenced to the state pen
itentiary on various charges OF bur
glary and theft. One youngster being
less than sixteen years was committed
to the reform school at Pruntytown
Without reflection upon the court or
on the machinery OF justice in this
county, which is as humane as that
of any other county in the state. the
imprisonment OF mere children
among hardened criminals is a trav-
esty on justice. a reflection upon
Christian civilization. and a disgrace
to an enlightened state. These FIVE
boys will become new recruits 10 the
ranks OF hardened criminals at
Moundsville. There is not one chance
in one hundred that any one of them
will ever be more than a law breaker.
and IL endowed with sufficient courage
and cunning. they may become des-
perate criminals of the most dan
gerous tyne.
Who can say what these boys might
have been. ii FIVE years ago they had
had opportunities for a decent educa-
ton and decent training? Who can
assert that any one OF them might not
have become a good citizen IL he had
been taken in hand when he took his
first step from the path OF decency
and honesty. and had been lead back
TO better life?
How many OF the men who are
counted among our best citizens
would have held their place in the
church or in the business and social
world il they had been born among
criminals and lived the early years OF
their lives among the vicious? The
youth OF this land is its most precious
asset nd when the city. state and
county deliberately allow and encour-
age young boys TO become criminals
they fail OF the highest duty that falls
on civilized and Christian man.
Practically the juvenile court insti-
tuted bv Ben Lindsay. ~ Denver. Col.
Is better method o; handling young
offenders. Has not Wheeling plenty
OF material Tor "a juvenile court. and
II only one OF two boys are saved
from life Of crime. won't such a
court be justified?

taxes in West Virginia are today one

in the northern part. are carrying

Bill Dawson We owe the fact
very largely that we have a

Bill Dawson is the bugbear with

whose stealthy hand wrote a decla-
cratic state platform. or course. the
Democrats did not know it but Bill
Dawson really ran the Democratic
state convention. He IL was who.
while sick at Ashville. nearly a thou
sand miles away wrote a declaration
for primary law in two Republi-
can state platforms; in a platform
adopted by a Scherr convention, and
in platform adopted by a
Swisher convention. OF course.
there were eight or nine hun
dred Republicans on the grounds at
Charleston. more than half of whom
were cussing Bill Dawson. but his
deep, damnable intrigue lead them on
into n declaration for a primary. AS
Governor Of West Virginia he rem
dered a service to this state unex-
celled by any other man in the state.
He is only human. He has his faults
as all other men have. The Intelli-

criticise him. but this thing OF trying
to throw iniquities OF all West Vir-
ginia upon one man. and to oppose
everything that is good. that is clean.
that is honorable. because he favors
it. is too ridiculous and too senseless
to be carried on by honest and de-
cent people.
The primary election law ought to
be considered upon its merits. No
primary election law can be OF any
more benefit to w. VI. o. Dawson as
a citizen OF West Virginia than il Is
10 every other man in the state. No
law can be made for one man that will
