M Moro naMsnnism

There lis no mincIng of words by
the, Parkersburg State Journal in Its
comment. on how Governor Glass
cock was unfortunately led into the
Roosevelt movement by william NJ.
o. Dawson, ex-governor OF. the state.
The State journal speaks out as
follows;
There never was. stronger ex-
ample of base ingratitude or de-
parturo from former utterance or
demonstration Of ridiculous ipcon-
sisteney, than when the man who
wasspplled through, as the governor
Of this state went back on President
Taft, with the sen-convicting and
mahifestly false reason that he was
not for the denomination Of the
splendid chief executive OF the ma
ton, because he could not be
elected. The Dawson4Glasscock
gang are not against Taft on account
OF devotion to principle, but be-
clause they want to hog the whole OF
the persihmons. They are the kind
OF men, who If they can not rule
will ruin. The Republican party OF
West Virginia has. certainly had
enough Of them. It is not going to
give itself over again to Bill Daw.
son. He proposes to get, in the sad
die again by opposing President
Taft. Is he going to succeed Is
the party going to saddle itself with
such an incubus again? Not much.
