BIRTH or A NEW PARTY.
An Emphatic Departure BY the
Youngest State East Of the
Mississippi.

This year will see the birth Of a
new party in West Virginia. Already
many life long ~adherents to the prin-
ciples Of Democracy, RepubIicanism
and the latest organization. the Bun
Moosers, have pledged aiiegIance 70
the new Party. For some time now,
in fact for more than three years, to
be exact, work has been quietly going
on leading up to the latest in party
organizations.
AS a matter Of chronology, it may
be stated that the first meeting was
held in Petersburg Dec. 3, 1909.
Several Of the leading citizens Of
West Virginia we're present. One of
them, formerly a u. s. Senator, was
enc OF the most interested and m
thusiastic of the first convention, and
Ills ardor has not diminished M jot
or title since. Others who attended
the Parkersburg gathering in 1909,
we're also imbued with the patriotism
such as is rife in the breast of all
West Virginians. "Montani Semper
Liberi," the States motto, translated
being "Mountaineers are always
free" viii not be the slogan Of the
new Party, but it is this very free
dom, as applied to thought and action
that eliminated in this latest determi
nation to bring about a party devoid
OF all 'isms," excepting patriotism.
II will be free from corruption; free
from graft and bias; free from all of
the Vaccinations usually charged by
one party against another during the
heated campaigns.
It was not until November A, 1911,
at a meeting held in Clarksburg that
permanent officers were elected. At
that time a tentative plan of action
was outlined.
West Virginia viii see 4 cam
paign this summer, in fact. it is just
getting under way now, that will be a
hummer in its way. It will be a clean
campaign in every particular. The
names of the men behind 1t assure
this. The literature to be sent out
will contain not one unkind word or
with reference to any individual or
to any other party. 1t will deal only
with it's W affairs and shall not at
tempt to win its membership in any
ether n than by a party plat
form appealing to patriotism, civic
pride, loyalty and a feeling of thanks
giving for all of the blessings that are
ours.
The press of the state will gener-
ously keep its readers posted from
10Y until June as to the work that
is being done. The exact date for the
great rally is June 20, 1918. The
place for holding the gathering Of
members is every city, town, village,
in fact, every community in West
Virginia.
The name of the new party that
will draw its support from all other
parties in the State is " WEST ViR.
GINIA'S BIRTHDAY PARTY"
The State will then be fifty years
old-a mile stone in life that is gen
orally celebrated. The city wherein
the official celebration viii be held

Jacob Have Loved"
This Scriptural statement Is borne
out by Gods dealings with Jacob. He
had shown his courage. his faith. Now
he needed encouragement, and there
fore was given a dream of beautiful
import. In his dream he saw a ladder
extending from his side up to Heaven
and crowded with angels. At the
further end. in his mind he saw God
and heard Ills words. full of enconr-
fagement. God assured him that He
recognized him MS the legal heir to the
great Abrahamic Promise.
The ~pllraseology of Gods Message Is
much the same that was given TO
Abraham, anl confirmed TO Isaac. Now
it was confirmed to Jacob. He was
thenceforth in covenant relationship
with the God Of his fathers.
