FAVOR MR., CLARK
IN THIS STATE
Clarksburg Man Says West Virginia
Will Go Democratic BY Majority
BY From Ten to Fifteen Thousand.

Washington, June lowest Vir-
ginia Democrats are for the nomina-
ton of Speaker Clark for President"
said Raleigh T. Green, of Clarksburg,
at the Raleigh. He will get III the
delegates from the State to the BAL
timore convention, despite the repre-
sensations of friends of Gov. Wood
row Wilson to the contrary, Col
John T. McGraw, our notional com
mitteman put up the strongest kind
of contest against instructing The
delegates from West Virginia, but he
was unsuccessful in his fight, and
Speaker Clark will control the
sixteen delegates of the State - the
Democratic national convention"
Col. Green was asked if he belle, ed
the Democrats can carry West Viz
ginia in the election this fall
There is absolutely no doubt in
my mind that no matter who is nom-
mated by the Democrats he will car
ry West Virginia in the November
election he replied. IF either pes
ident Taft or Col Roosevelt is select
ed as the standard bearer Of the Re
publican party he will be beaten in
West Virginia by from 10000 to l5.
000 majority.

and they are only waiting for the OPP
portunity to show their resentment

1HE GREAT TEACHER in to
days lesson emphasizes the
~ necessity of knowledge and of
faith built thcreupon. The
blind leading the blind represent the
ignorant leading the ignorant into diff
ticulties.
The destination sought by the Jews
was fellowship with and relationship
to God--His highest favor, mentioned
to Abraham, saying, I'm thy Seed shall
all the families OF the earth be bless
ed" St Paul says Of that promise,
Israel hath not obtained that which
he seeketh, but the election hath OBJ
tanned It and the rest were blinded"
The entire Jewish race was blinded
and turned aside and fell into the pit
into confusion, darkness, separation
from God. This was the very matter
against which Jesus forewarned them.
How important that Gods people rec
ognize the true Leader, Jesus, and heed
not the voice Of Others!
Alas we find that many of the great
and wise of the principal pulpits of
the world are undermining faith by

These great men style themselves
Higher Critics and endorse the theory
that humanity Is undergoing process
of evolution from monkey-likeness up
to God-likeness. They are thus indi-
rectly telling their people that there
was no fall from Gods image and like
ness, that there was no sin committed,
no sentence for sin, no Redeemer from
sin and its sentence and that Restitu-
ton is not to be hoped for.-Acts Iii.

Humility Character Foundation.
The parable of man with a beam
In his eye trying to pick mote out of
his brothers eye was forceful meth
cd whereby the Master lnculcated the
necessity of humility. Humility is a
foundation virtue. The Latin word
for humility is hupsHs, gpeund. This
implies that il is the soil out of which
other virtues are produced. Those
who think they know everything can
learn nothing. How beautiful ii is to
realize that Jesus was humble and
that all the holy angels are so,
Grapes of 5rambIe Bush.
While the Scriptures forbid Gods
people to judge one another, they do
commend to us another kind of judg-
ing. While not condemning the heart
we are to judge of the outward con
duct. The parable which our Lord in
this lesson gives respecting the gath
ering of grapes from bramble bushes
illustrates this point. Gods people are
likened to the grapevine, which pro
duces no thorns but luscious clusters
of fruit. Mankind in general are Xix
ened TO bramble bushes, ready to in
are merely elfsustaininG We are to
distinguish between such characters
and Gods people; BY their fruits
shall We know them"
1t is said that at times a bramble
bush is entirely covered by a vine so
that the grapes appear to be coming
from the bush. However, we are not
to he mistaken. \ good tree cannot
bring forth evil frultage, neither can
an Injurious tree bring forth good
fruitaGe. The lesson is that those who
are really Gods people must be fruit
bearing else they are none of His
II is therefore useless for any man
to tell us that he has given his heart

Sirmav made full confession of his

was no reasonable doubt of his guilt,
it ia good to have the last possible

Sirmay was evidently man of an
entirely different class from that Of

TIE NUMBER OF SALOONS

In the controversy which has arisen
with respect 10 a possible difference
of opinion between the City Commits.
sion and tho Third District Court as
10 the number of saloons 10 hc per.
mitted in this city, we cannot believe
that the court would undertake TO
assert any authority over the commits.
sion IN The way Of directing the issue
of saloon licenses above the number
that the court would insist upon Ii
rensinc spv saloon against the will of
the commission In a way. the two
propositions might mean the same
thing: but il is hardly to be conceived
that the law would mean that the
court could override the commission on
either point. or on combination of
the two.
The very discretion that ia commit
ted to a municipality, whether that
municipality is governed by commits
sion or bv council, contemplates that
that discretion shall be exercised un-
trammeled by any judicial requirement ut,
and unbound by any judicial decree.
For if il were to be conceded that the
law IMPOSES arbitrary jurisdiction OF
this kind upon the commission, then
its discretion would be invaded, and
indeed set aside.
We trust that the commission will
not he influenced in any way by any
opinion TO the effect that the commits
sion is governed in this matter by the
court If necessary. we hope that the
commission Will make test case and
insist upon its discretionary rights both
as to the limitation of the number Of
saloons. in case it wishes TO limit them,
and its right TO refuse a license in
any civen case in spite of the fact
that the court may pass the applica.
tion for license as lawful and TO lie
granted.
The matter involved herein is too
important to be allowed to 60 on a
sort Of understanding or indefnable
claim. Let a test case be made, and
we are satisfied that the courts Of the
State will affirm the discretion Of the
doctrine that the action Of the District
Court is merely pro forma as to the
passing upon licenses, and does not in
anv wav bind the commission TO grant
a license when the commission is not
favorable thereto, or to increase the
number Of saloons in the city above
the number which the commission
mipht decide upon as a limit. Let us
have clear Interpretation Of the law
on this point, and the sooner it is had
the better it will be for alr concerned.

THE CENsoRIoUs DIXON.

Senator Dixon of Montana, the cam
paign manager for Col Roosevelt, is
the most discourteous, insulting man
who ever appeared in public life, in his
attitude towards the President of the
United States, He does not hesitate in
the least to directly and Extensively
contradict the President in the most
scandalous manner, but he speaks Of
him with the utmost disrespect and
contempt on almost all occasions.
His outbursts and extravagant claims
after every election of delegates have
become notorious offenses 10 the pub
lie. His outgiving on Ohio is both men
acing and vicious.
His most disorderly outbreak was de-
scribed in the dispatches on the morn
ing after, where, in discussing the Mary
land primary election, he stated that
the claim of the Taft Bureau in Wash
ington, with respect to the Maryland
election. was ga willful, deliberate
lie. and further, he said that "every
man connected with the circulation of
the statement is deliberate and will
ful liar and that "those lies are cir
culated for the purpose and for the
only purpose for which liars always
lie The word lie. therefore, appears
10 be much.c h.cherished one with MI
Dixon. and he is both glib and unre-
strained in the use of that word.
IN view Of his proneness to unrc
strained speech. it is good TO see that
once in while he gets a setback, He
recently noted on postcard circulated
bv the Ohio Manufacturers Associa
tion a cartoon directed against the ''re
call - Dixon at once sent Off sharp
letter 20 the secretary Of the asso
ciation. declaring the use OF that postal
card TO be "crude endeavor, which
