Jake had been stringing his partners
along to put up money on his lying
representations for nearly two years
trail. He had put all the money into
his saloon, and in palliation of his
offense he explained that all mining
was a gamble, while saloon in a
Nevada mining camp possessed no ele-
ments Of financial uncertainty. He ar
gued that his course had been solely
dictated by inherent honesty and
sound business judgment.

Jake knew his partners too well to
open any parley on question like
that He drove his horse into a hol-
low, and getting out remarked that the
spot where they had stopped was as
good as any.
Get busy!" They handed him the
pick and shovel, and when he seemed
a little slow covered him with the six
shooters.
There was a silence of half an hour
as his captors watched him work.

When Jake Lanning fitted up his
new saloon in Tonopah with a wealth
of interior decorations that seemed
better fitted TO San Francisco than tc
a new Nevada mining camp, there
were many of the patrons who were
unkind enough to make insinuating
queries regarding the manner in which
Jake had secured the money which
paid for 1t all Discussions on this
subject never reached any definite goal
and it was finally dismissed as a con-
versational topic.
Jake had announced that he was go
ing to put all the other joints on the
blink" when it came to celebrating
Christmas, and he began his decora-
tions several days ahead of the rest
One afternoon two strangers entered
the resort and when Jake saw them he
paused In the work of wiping some
glasses, and flush of crimson suf-
fused his face and spread rapidly to
the back of his neck.

They declined his proffer Of hospi-

They drove out into the hills and

not exactly know where he was going.

Presently the horse stopped on the
brow of bleak hill, and Jake dropped
the reins to wipe the heavy beads of
sweat off his face.

THE AMENDMENT
BIRD ANNUAL CONVENTION OF
WEST VIRGINIA UNION TAKES
STRONG POSITION.

Probably the most important action
of the last West Virginia state conven-
ton of the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union was the adoption Of a
strong resolution endorsing the pend
ing suffrage amendment to the state
constitution. The membership OF the
convention was thoroughly representa-
tive Of the best of the woman citizen
ship OF the commonwealth and the
resolutions adopted expressed their
views on some of the most important
questions of the times.
The suffrage resolution was adopted
without a dissenting vote and was en-
Enthusiastically applauded by the dele
gates. The resolution follows:
I'VE, the West Virginia Woman's
Christian Temperance Union in the
Thirty-third annual convention assem-
bled, resolve,
THAT we believe that in the we'll
ordered march of human progress the
time for the enfranchisement Of
women is at hand. We welcome the
day, believing that the glorious tri-
umph of National Prohibition will be
thus fastened, and that every move
ment for moral reform and good gov
eminent will be strengthened thereby.
We pledge our earnest efforts for the
success of the pending suffrage
amendment and shall study to shcw
ourselves approved in the use OF the
ballot when it shall be placed in our
hands. To that end we shall seek to
be intelligent and unselfsh voters"

Nj. E, CONFERENCE
IS FOR SUFFRAGE
GREAT CHURCH GOES ON RECORD
WITH BUT SIX VOTES
AGAINST THE WOMEN.

The quadrennial session OF the Cen
eral Conference of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church, in convention assem-
bled at Saratoga Springs, n. Y, has
taken advanced ground on the subject
of equal suffrage. At the session Oh
the conference held on Tuesday, May
%, United States Judge Henry w.
Rogers, head of the law school OF Yale
University, submitted a resolution
strongly favoring woman suffrage.
Judge Rogers moved the adoption or
the resolution and the motion carried
almost unanimously. There were but
six votes recorded in the negative.
That the governing body OF the
great Methodist Episcopal Church
should go on record for equal suffrage
is triumph, but that the vote should
be practically unanimous is wonderful
The General Conference meets once in
four years and is composed of lay and
clerical delegates from all parts OF
the United States and from the
church's missions throughout the
world. Among those many hundred
of representative men there were
barely half a dozen who raised their
voices against the enfranchisement OF
women. 1t shows that the forces OF
right recognize that the forces Of evil
are arrayed against this great ques-
ton. Once convinced Of this, there is
no doubt that every churchman and
woman. every forward looking individ-
ual and every moral power in the
country will be on the side of equal
suffrage.
Senator Woods OF Philippi is one OF
the delegates to this great conference
and it is a source of satisfaction to
West Virginians that he was not one
of the half Dozen"

BOTH PARTIES
BOOST SUFFRAGE
Republicans and Democrats En-.
dorse Votes for Women in
Their National Platforms

For the first time in the long his
tory of the efforts of women to obtain
the ballot the Democratic and Repub'
lican parties have endorsed the equal
suffrage principle in their national
platforms. Not only have they en-
dorsed the principle but they have
urged upon the states the right and
propriety Of extending the franchise
to women on the same terms as to
men. Ten years ago this achievement
seemed impossible. 1t Is proof posi-
tive that the leading men of the two
great parties recognize the justice OF
the womens demand for an equal
share In the benefits and burdens Of
the government. This is a long step
in advance and it foreshadows the
success of the pending amendment In
West Virginia this fall.
In Chicago the Republican party in
National convention assembled unan'
imously adopted the following suffrage
plank:
The Republican party, reaffirming
It's faith in government Of the people,

but recognizes the right OF each state

frage plank in the st. Louis conven-
