The gentlemen who criticized then
are certainly not acquainted with
the situation throughout the state
The Record believes that their acton
Ia boiling a money-ridden caucus Is
fully endorsed by a very large portion
of the Democrats in the state. and
that they are almost unanimously en-
dOrsed and greatly praised by the
Democrats Of the three counties OF the
Twelfth senatorial district and espec-
tally SO in Doddridge county. The
people should look around them and
be sorry that dr. watson did not join
them in carrying out their will They
were under no moral nor political
obligation to support the choice of a
money-ridden caucus, when evidences
.of it were rife on all sides
All praise to this bold and patrlotic
trio and those who stood by them Let
those who desire to read them out Of
the party mingle with the people in
the state and they will change their
minds.-The West Union Record, Feb
8, 1911.
The West Union Record is a Dem
ocratic newspaper and senator Bland
lis a Democratic member of the legis-
lature. For uttering the above, he
would not longer be before the pub
lie. If he were not a holdover sena-
tor.
The bosses saw to it that the trio
did not remain intact to oppose them
again in the legislature. They
named men who Will vote as they
say, if elected to the legislature. In
this county their legislative tools are
to be Fred L. shinn and Ray Nor
gan, If the people make the mistake
OF electing these two men.

DR.. Hatfield says: .'The RepubH-
can and Progressive parties in the
state OF West virginia are carrying
out the wishes of both President
Taft and colonel Roosevelt and have
their respective tickets in the field
find nothing to condemn in this ar
rangement. This situation seems
entirely satisfactory to both Repub-
licans and Progressives, but it is
worse than the nightmare and gives
the jimjams to Democratic politici-
ans in the state. Frankly, do you
not think that the Republicans and
Progressives should settle this mat
ter between themselves and that 1t
is not the business OF any Demo
crat? Right you are, doctor, as
you have always been since you be-
gan to frankly take the people OF
West virginia into your confidence

nis,nnters Of dc Party.

What has taken place is heartbreak-
ing to one who has all the attach
ments for his party proved by ser
vice of thirty years. and whose incen-
tive to be a Democrat is the sincere
belief that the Democratic partyTs
creed and doctrines are best suited
for the preservation OF the rights of
freemen and that it shall be true
public servant. In spite OF these at
citations We have felt it high duty
to make the protest we have.
This paper has condemned wrong
doing when committed in the Repub-
lican party-shall we defend or con-
done it when committed in the Demo
cratic party? Are We to have double
standard of morals to suit political
exigencies?
The people are entitled to know the
truth. To. suppress it, to hide it. to
misrepresent it. would be wrong to
the state and to the party. For if the
trumpet give an uncertain sound who
shah prepare himself for the battle?
There is no reason why this crush
ing disappointment in West Virginia
should bring despair What has taken
place in Charleston ought to give a
powerful impetus to the movement
for the election Of U. S. senators by
the people. The thousands of rank
and-fle Democrats are honest and
loyal 10 the precepts OF their party
and the obvious lesson for them is
that a stricter watchfulness in the
selection of their representatives is
indispensable. There are honest men
in this legislature, thank God. but
not quite enough of them The war
between organized and predatory
wealth on one. side and the people on
the other Will go on and be fought out
to an ultimate decision. And it is
true now as it has been ever true that
eternal vigilance is the price of Ii
berty..-Monroe Waterman, Feb. ?,
1911
The watchman is reminded that
there is no change in the Democratic

About the silliest fake that has
been perpetrated by the falsehood
factory maintained by the tainted
money Of Boss watson reads to the
eject that Honest Abe Lilly has
been practicing Law in his native
state of West Virginia without Ii
cense. If this were true, it would
be a henious crime, wouldn't it?
But. of course. it is not true. Abe
Lilly was practicing law, and making
a brilliant success of it, before his
opponent foated into Charleston
from his native virginiah, sur, prac-
ticing in all courts from the highest
tribunal we have down to a magis-
trate's court in the county OF Raj
eign. Mr.. Lilly is a lawyer possessed
of splendid education and a wide
experience. and, we might add
though not necessary particularly.
that he is as duly licensed to prac-
tice his profession as any man init.

It is strange that in a community
possessing so many really intelligent
people as this one, that there are
so many who are positively unable
to dfferentiate between truth and
falsehood in a political campaign.
On all other things except politics
they are quick to make the distinc-
ton and immune against deception.
But on that subject their intelligence
seems to have gone on on a vacation,
and they take cognizance of the most
transparent falsehoods. especially II
they be slanderous of a candidate
that proves them to be the most
creduIous, gullible and easiest
people to be found among US.
