ATTORNEY JOHN MORRISON
COMES OUT FOR NEW LAW.
Declares 6raston County 10 Support
Ing GoVernor-Demoersts Did
Not Favor Watson.

Srecial Dispatch 20 the Inteiiigenccr.
CHARLESTON. W. Va. May 10
The people in my county. regardless
OF politics. want n primary election
law. and they also believe the gov
ernor did the right thing when he
called the legislature together for
that purpose. He placed the respon-
sibility where II belongs. and II the
legislature fails TO pass a primary
election law the governor cannot be
blamed. but the blame must rest with
the legislators. Both political parties
are pledged TO one and there is no
reason why the wishes OF the great
army OF citizens OF the state should
not be respected"
This was the reply made by John
b. Morrison. OF Sutton. who is here.
when asked whether the people OF
Braxton county wanted n primary
election law and whether they
thought the governor took the right
step In converting the solons for that
purpose.
i don't think ] have heard a Re-
publican or a Democrat in BraXton
county express himself as opposed
to primary election law, nor against
the action OF the governor in issuing
his proclamation converting the legis-
lature said Mr.. Morrison The
democrats OF Braxton were not at all
pleased with the election OF Mr.. Wat
son. man whom none OF the voters
OF the county had ever seen. and they
don't Ike the idea OF being told that
they must favor a plan that would
permit repetition OF the occurrence
or the last session by which Watson
secured his election TO the United
states senate. They declare they
want primary and they will have
no use. either party. for the man who
Will oppose IT," concluded Mr.. Morri-
son.

Mine EramInatinn

The department OF mines has an
nounced the dates for the holding OF
examinations for mine foremen. as
sistant mine foremen and fire bosses.
and in addition has set out some OF
the qualifications necessary TO secure
these positions. The great demand
among the miners 10 advance their
position is making these examinations
more frequent. Many miners take
the examinations for the simple
reason that it gives them a knowledge
they feel they ought TO possess even
as ordinary miners.
The dates set Tor these examina-
lions are as follows:

ADVERTISING TALKS
WRITTEN By
WILLIAM G. FREEMAN.

The benefits that RURAL
FREE DELIVERY has con-
ferred upon people living in
remote country districts are
we'll known and need no repe-
tition here.
But | wonder if the MA
TIONAL ADVERTISER has
ever given any consideration
to the effect that RURAL
FREE DELIVERY has had in
INCREASING THE VALUE
OF THE DAILY NEWSPA-
PER AS A GENERAL AID
VERTISING MEDIUM for
their business!
Just think of the number of
people in small country towns
and villages who rarely saw
a newspaper before the eStab-
liShment of the Rural Free De-
livery.
Now these same people re-
ceive their DAILY NEWSPA-
PER REGULARLY. They
keep in close touch with the
events of the day and READ
THE ADVERTISING as
closely as they do the news.
The ATLANTA newspaper.
for instance, send out a great
many thousand copies through
the rural free delivery to peO-
pie living in nearby country
districts, and the same is true
of newspapers printed in other
cities.
| was surprised, on 4 recent
trip to Syracuse, to find that
the POST STANDARD there
had a mail subscription circu
lation of over 2O,OOO-(rep-
reSenting nearly ONE-HALF
OF ITS TOTAL CIRCULA-
TION) delivered in and
around Syracuse every day.
ALL OF THIS PUBLICITY
IS VALUABLE TO THE
GENERAL ADVERTISER.
The daily newspaper is
more sought to-day than il
ever was. People haven't
the time nor the inclination
to wait a week for their news
they want it daily.
That is why the daily news
paper is so VALUABLE an at-
vertiSing medium. The GEN
eral advertiser who wants 10
reach ALL OF THE PEOPLE
all of the time cannot afford
to ignore the daily newspaper.
