ton, TO Hear the Repub-
lican Chieftain.

CHARLESTON, Oct. 25 - The
meeting held here last night by the
Republicans and Progressives in
honor of DR.. Hatfield was the great
est political meeting in size and en-
thusiasm that has been held in the
capital city in ten years. The COM
modious Burlew theater did not pc
gin to hold the vast crowds of enthu-
siastic party men, and speakers ad-
dressed the overflow on the outside.
Preceding the meeting parade
made UP of touring cars. motor
trucks and horse-drawn vehicles was
held, passing through streets lined
with cheering people. The entire
route was ablaze with coiored fire
and shooting rockets. It has been
long time since this city has wit
messed such campaign demonstra-
ton. 1t broke all records and sur
passed all expectations.
Captain S. B. Avis, candidate for
Congress in this district, presided
at the meeting inside the opera
house. DR.. Hatfield was given a
tremendous ovation, which inspired
him to deliver one of the best
speeches that he has made on his
remarkable speaking tour of the
state. Hon. A. A. Lilly, Captain
Avis and others spoke inside and
outside the theater.
One of the greatest demonstrations
of the evening followed the dramatic
reading by Chairman Avis Of the FOL
lowing telegraphic message:
Captain S. B. Avis,
Chairman Hatfield Meeting,
Charleston, w. Va.
Congratulations to the assembled
Republican hosts OF Kanawha coun-
ty on the occasion OF their first for
NAL greeting to the next governor OF
West Virginia. Tell them for the
state committee that everywhere the
boys in the ranks are standing
shoulder to shoulder fighting with a
zeal and determination that means a
splendid victory Because of their
united stand for DR.. Hatfield and the
candidates on the ticket with him,
West virginia will show to the world
that it does not approve of buying
and selling legislators. the mixing in
of crooked business in our politics,
and a campaign of slanderous false
hoods by an organization of corrupt
bosses who stand convicted in the
minds OF the people of the grayest
crimes possible to commit against
tho rights and liberties of American
citizenship.
Tell the Republicans of good old
,Kanawha county that DR.. Hatfield
and the entire state ticket is as good
as elected by majority of not less
than 10000.

State Chairman.

their best interests as to entertain for minute
the thought Of casting vote to retain Mr. Davis in

WOMAN sent TO
JAIL FORCONTEMPT.
Mrs. Alexander Refused to
Obey Court Summons
and to Testify.

Matte j. Alexander, poor and Grip
pied, sits behind the walls Of her cell
in the Ada county Jail serving out the
first sentence for contempt Of court
that has been imposed by any judge
for many months.
Mrs. Alexander Is perhaps the best
known woman in the court of Ada
county. Within the last year she has
probably been before the judges of the
district and probate courts more times
than any other woman in the district.
Only a short time ago she was acquit-
ted on a charge Of the embezzlement
of a sewing machine, and other cases
that have been held against her from
time to time have brought he: into the
records Of the clerks office in the court
house on various occasions.
This time she defied William c. Dun
bar, judge of the probate court Though
she had been served six days before
to appear in the case where the county
was contemplating the placing of her
16-year- old daughter, Charity Reed, In
the Children's Home, she refused to
appear in court and did not get there
until an hour and a half later. Then
she demanded more time, although she
had not asked it before. She was
given until o'clock in the afternoon,
and an hour after hte time set she
called up the court over the telephone
to tell him that she would not appear
in the case.
A bench warrant was issued and she
was brought before the judge late in
the afternoon, after having kept room
full Of witnesses waiting practically
all day. Even after she got there, she
refused to be sworn and would not
testify about the case, even though she
was told that in a matter of this kind
she had no right under the law to re-
fuse to answer the questions that were
put to her.
During the course Of the trial she is
said to have interrupted and bitterly
denounced the witnesses, and to have
done almost everything that she could
to delay the progress of the case. Judge
Dunbar finally sentenced her to serve
one day in the county jail and to pay
a fine Of $40, or to serve the fine out at
the rate of 50 a day.
It was brought out during the prog
ress of the case that the girl lived in
constant fear of her, that Mrs. AleXan-
der had threatened to kill her with a
rifle on several occasions, and that she
had threatened at one time to cut her
heart out with butcher knife, and
lad made other and similar threats
against the child.
The girl has not been to school and
has spent three years in an orphans
home and another three years living
with her grandmother. Mrs. Alexan-
der's own mother and sister testified

Falls City, where she grew to woman
hood. She taught night school in Falls

For the last two years her relatives
knew little about her, but they UNDER

festo issued by the International So

The document says that II the Bal
kan war should spread 1t would be
one of the greatest scandals in his
tory because of the disproportion be-
tween the immensely Of the catastro-
phe and the unimportance Of the is
sues at stake. Therefore the Social
lists in the Balkan should hasten the
end of the war, those in Austria
Hungary should oppose any contem-
plated attack upon Servia, those in
Italy should prevent the sacrifice of
Albania to Italian ambitions, and those
in England, France and Germany
should force their governments to keep
out of the controversy.
The gravest danger to the peace OF

lists in both those countries should de-
stroy this feeling by energetic propa-
