Chief Executives Presentation
of Campaign Issues Arouses
Great Enthusiasm.

betc1At TO THE reteahAAS
LOGAN, May 24.-Speaking before q
large and enthusiastic crowd at Logan
Tuesday afternoon and another at
Holden last night Governor Hatfield
invaded the county of his nativity In
defense Of his administration. Hun
dreds Of his personal and political
friends, many companions Of his child
hood, turned out to welcome the chief
executive and voice their approval Of
his official record. The ovation given
him was remarkable. 1t demonstrated
that while the sun is setting on his
administration his influence Is In no
sense on the wane, and his hold on the
confidence and affection Of the people
is as strong today as 1t ever was. The
speaker had little to say about the
contest being ,waged for the Republi-
can nomination for governor, combining
himself almost exclusively to review
Of his achievements while in office.
He struck sledge-hammer blows,
however. at his opponents, conspicuous
among whom is Abe Lilly, candidate
for the gubernatorial nomination, de-
claring they are trying to discredit him
because he insisted on serving the
people instead Of the greedy corpora
lions.
Quoting figures to show that every
dollar of the million appropriated
by the legislature Of 1913 and provided
by the legislature Of 1915 at the second
extra session was expended for per-
manent improvements and additions to
state institutions the speaker repudi-
ated his forces who have been charg-
ing his administration with extrava-
gance. He declared West Virginia Is
ono Of the most economically governed
states In the union and cited cases Of
congestion in the state institutions to
prove the need for the improvements
made. The insane were compelled to
lie In jails because there were no state
funds available to remove them to
hospitals, he declared. Many other
narrowing examples were quoted to
show tho need for the appropriations
which made necessary the fourteen
cent levy for 1915 after all indirect
taxation measures had been defeated.
The governor said the levy for this
year would be less than ten cents and
predicted that 1t would drop to less
than Ave cents in 1917. And yet
We hear officeseekers who are willing
to sell their souls, prostitute their
honor and bow down at the feet Of
greed and selfishness for their financial
and political support, hoping thereby
to get into Office talking about extray-
agance. he declared. Declaring that
he knows OF corporations that have
threatened to discharge their employees
IL they refuse to vote for their candi-
date for governor. the speaker assert
ed that he did not believe the stalwart
mountaineers of West Virginia would
lie supinely down and permit them
selves to be shackled by those plumber
ers who seek to sack the state by plac-
ing an executive in the governors
Office that would do their bidding.
The governor reiterated that he was
not responsible for Judge Robinson's
candidacy, and did not tell any state
employees to support him. He offered
to contribute $1,000 to the campaign
fund Of any candidate to prove that he
did.

PRESIDENTIAL RACE
CLOSEST SINCE 1876
RESULT SWINGS BACK AND
FORTH FOR TWO DAYS, WITH
WILSON LEADING.

Only once before in the history
in the presidential race been paral
leled--and that was in the historic
T:lden-Hays campaign of 1876. Then
Hays was adjudged the victor after
bitter contest, by one electoral vote.
American political history was en-
riched by the two days amazing
swing back and forth of the returns
for Hughes against Wilson, and for
Wilson and against Hughes. The
first returns showed Wilson leading.
Then came Hughes sweep, with a
tremendous lead in New York and
other big Eastern states. Massachu-
sets added to the Republican candi-
dates growing list.
1t looked like a great Hughes
landslide and the Presidents most
ardent supporters among the great
New York dailies conceded Hughes
election, among them being such pa
pers as the New York World and
Journal
But once again the swing changed.
Wilson drift set in. Ohio went un-
mistakably Democratic; the Presi-
dent gained as later returns from In
diana offset the first favorable
Hughes. Minnesota, North Dakota,
and California returns showed him
leading and from then on the Wilson
trend continued strong. Washing
ton, supposedly Republican, went in
to the Wilson column and the race
narrowed down until the result was
up to three or four states, with Will
son in the lead in all of them.

where Contamination, Pozieres, CourceI-
ette, Thiepval. and Martinpuich once
stood; and II Is a literal fact that when
our little party ate lunch standing in the
muo-tnere Is nowhere to sit in the
oomme country-an argument ragged for
twenty minutes as to whether we were,
or Were not, on the site Of q very con-
siderable village. It took an ordnance
map te settle the dispute. though three
bricks which I had found sticking to-
gether seemed to me strong circumstan-
tial evidence. The map proved We had
lunched In La BoisseIle.
There are no trenches excepting where
tney are constantly rebuilt; the others
have crumbled away under the impact If
millions of shells. There are no woods:
q Few straggiing. stripped. pitted stumps
alone pitfully exist where once thousands
OF men died in the horrible tangles known
as Delville Wood, the Bois de Mametz,
Bois de Foureaux. Far off to the right
as We watched we could see the bursting
smells where another such battle was wag-
Ing between Germans and French in the
Bois de Pierre Vast. But there is chalk
and mud. always mud. mud everywhere
TO the horizon: the tortured landscape
seems like the rolling wastes Of the Sa-
harra, with the whitish mud in place Of
sand, and out Of the mud, here, there
and everywhere. leap stabs of flame from
the massed British guns tirelessly pound
Ing the German lines in the far distance;
It takes more than mud to silence the
guns. And that Is the Somme battle
held. whose name will be q thing Of hor-
ror till the world ends.
Mud Worse in Rear.
Como now to the rear, out Of shell
range. where the mass of the armies
rest" in support while waiting their
turn to endure the fiery ordeal Of the
trenches. Here the mud is worse than
at the front. In the old days before
the armies grew to their present size the
men could be billeted in towns and vii
lages, as Is done on the rest OF the west
ern front today; but here the houses OF
the countryside cannot hold them all. and
for miles toward the coast every other
field is a camp. dotted with white tents
the only white objects in the region of
the Somme. Constant trampling of thou
sands of men and horses has made of
che rear more hopeless morass than
the battlefield itself. The towns them
selves are full OF mud. scattered every
where by the passing lorries, which plas-
ter the fronts Of the houses up to the
windows.
And the roadsl How they exist at all
is amazing. pounded day and night as
they are by an endless chain Of tens Of
thousands Of heavy lorries. ambulances.
horse vehicles. all the transport of shells
and supplies Of whose volume no one
who has not seen can form any concep-
ton These lorries do not get stuck in
the mud: the labor of thousands Of de-
voted Tommies keeps the indispensable
trafic going. Plastered from head to
foot. the repair gangs line all the main
roads constantly casting rock and gravel
into the slush. where 1t forms a sort Of
porridge until the rumbling motors crush
and grind the solid materials into the
road bed. A considerable part of the
traffic consists in wagons laden with
