HIGH TRIBUTE
TO A FRIEND

General Morris Horkheimer, left for
WWashington Saturday night. Before
going. Senator Scott said to a reporter
Of the Intelligencer:
my purpose in Wheeling was
purely personal, the performance OF a
sad duty. the attendance on the
funeral OF a life long friend. wish
TO pay last tribute TO the memory
OF General Horkheimer. No man was
more loyal to his friends or to any
cause in which he enlisted. General
Horkheimer was a business man OF
very great ability. He was a wide
reader. a keen student OF men and
affairs. and l have often been sur
prised by the amount OF exast infor-
nation concerning matters not par
ucularly pertaining to his business
which his conversations displayed.
He was a man of very good judgment
and his advice and counsel were
sought after by all OF his friends and
associates. He was generous, kindly
and warm hearted. IL he had any
fault IL was in being too generous TO
the faults OF his friends He could
not forsake them, even when. as they
sometimes did. they proved them.
selves unworthy. II was a great pleas
ure and privilege TO know General
Horkheimer as thoroughly as I did,
and in his death | feel that ] have
suffered the loss OF one who was as
close or closer than a brother.
Concerning my own affairs. I wish
TO say that | am not now and have
no present intentions of being a can
| didate for any public office. | am en-
tirely satisfied with the honors which
the people OF West Virginia in their
kindness have bestowed upon me-
Nevertheless, expect to continue TO
take an active interest in the public
affairs OF West virginia. / am still
Republican and want to work for
the Republican party. Moreover,
have been too deeply indebted TO my
friends not to take an interest in their
welfare and success. Concerning the
present mixed condition OF the Re-
publican party and the outcome thero-
OF. ] have no prophecy 10 make. One
mans guess is as good as another.
My greatest fear is that the conven-
ton at Chicago will result in two
candidates and two party organiza-
tions. That above all things we
should seek TO avoid"
