The outlook is most optimistic for
Governor Wilson's election, but the
Roosevelt movement must not be put
aside as a light affair, says Senator
Clarence w. Watson of West Vir-
ginia.
Things could not look better,
declared the Senator when asked
what he thought of the situation
politically "and the greatest danger
we Democrats have is the over-con-
fidence with which we may view
things. However, after talk | had
with Acting Chairman McAdoo on
Friday, | am inclined to think that
he realizes, as do many thinking
men, that it Is not a runaway race

The next six weeks should prove
momentous, SO far, at least, as the
Roosevelt-Taft situation is involved.

be good indication of whether Will

tend for a fair and honest deal. It
is shame that we have to appeal
to our people on this score but the
past has taught us that we must

the State of West Virginia and white
people thereof, we ask that our
county never again be prostituted by
Illegal repeating negro voters.
