Returns for the forthcoming ses-

vene on Monday, March 10, show that
there will be normally busy session
of the court at that time.
While the returns are fairly good,
they are not unusually large, so that
the session will be one of normal
length, so far as present indications
tend to show. 1t will be recalled that
the last session of the City court
which occupied a period of five weeks,
was an unusually heavy one.
This session of the court will like

ested in the future prosperity OF our rich

We are in receipt OF a letter from the
National Wholesale Liquor Dealers AS
ISOLATION in which it repudiates the &C
ton of c. L. Trevitt, OF Washington, who
made such bold offer to brlbe the news
papers of West Virginia into supporting
the whiskey traffic.
We are not surprised that the whiskey
dealers are vexed. We don't know
whether or not Trevitt had authority from
the Liquor Dealers Association to make
his offer, but it is very plain that he made
a serious mistake. His scheme has no!
been kindly received by the newspapers
of West Virginia, and its prompt expos
ure has nuIliiied its oStensible purpose.

THE illness OF Senator LaFollette and
his practical elimination as presidential
candidate has caused the progressive
Republicans to concentrate on Colonel
Roosevelt as their candidate. The only
contest, therefore, for the Republican
presidential nomination, will be between
the adherents of President Taft and the
boosters OF Colonel Roosevelt. II is
undoubtedly true that the party leaders
want neither OF those gentlemen as a
candidate, for Roosevelt is unpopular
with the big interests and the plain peo-
pie want no more OF TAFT, and with this
state of affairs the Democrats are most
likely to win.
