The SKY Was Red LAST SUNDAY MIGHT

About s p. m last Sunday night the
sky from the south to the north across
the western Orget was a rosy red for
about one hour before it died away.
Just what caused this phenomenon
there has been a score Of opinions;
some say chat is was the result of the
terrible explosion at Jersey City, while
others attributed it to local causes.
The excessive heat of the past month
which prevailed over all parts of the
country had something to do with the
atmospheric conditions.

COOL FOLLOWS HOT WEATHER

The prolonged spell of heat has been
broken twice since it started four
weeks ago, and this week the weather
conditions have been very much more
nieasant. Yesterday morning wraps
and covers during the night were more
than acceptable, and during the day
time the low humidity of the atmos-
nbere made the gentle breezes which
blew very pleasant.

They only wanted the calm COM

"Oh, did they. Well, my dear Dick,

the part where she told about seeing
Mr.. Trent kiss her mother and
both of them blushing, Dick NUT
tered: 81 should hope they would.
Why will old people make such fools
of themselves?"
"Are they fools, Dick?" I asked.
Dick looked at me in surprise.
'What do you mean?" he asked.
Wouldn't you like to live it all
over again?"
eve are not old and, besides, am
living it." lied Dick giibly.
"Oh no, you are not. What you
are living now is very different from
the terrible emotional earthquake
that upheaved in your life when we
first met.
81 don't believe we would be hu-
man if we both sometimes did not
wish it back again. We all say love

mingled ecstasies and anguish, more

'This, my dear Dick, is another of

she should not, and does not, love

Never read any of her high-brow
stuff" answered Dick.
'This is not 'highbrOw,' Dick She
asks: Why is it poets have said so
much about our first love and so lit

"Then why should the same thing

Rabbi Harry X. Richmond of Gin
clnnati, preached to the Jewish peo-
pie at the Masonic temple Wednes-
day night on the bearing the Euro
pean war has upon the Jews OF the
world. The spacious auditorium was
hlled TO capacity. Rabbit Richmond
also delivered another sermon Thurs
day morning at 10:30 o'clock.
His address Wednesday night was
eloquent and showed thorough
knowledge of conditions prevailing in
Europe. Rabbi Richmond said in
part:
Another year has Just passed and
Europe is still waging the bltterest
war the world has ever known. An
other year has elapsed, and the
highest nations across the Atlantic
are still offering daily thousands up
on thousands of human sacrifices to
Mars. Another year has gone, and
Europe is still giving away the flow
err OF manhood to shot and shell, its
choicest cities to destructions devas-
tation and DISSOLUTION.
Great and heavy indeed is the bur
den of the nations embrolled in the
European conflict, yet of all the peo-
pie at war none suffers so heavily,
none pays the price so dearly, as does
the Jew.

HIS HORSE WAS STOLEN

Locking the stable after the horse
is stolen is about as sane an act as
trying to grow hair after the head is
bald.
If the hair root is absolutely dead,
permanent badness will be your lot,
and you might as well cheer up and
tell your friends that 1t isn't so bad
after all, as to bemoan your fate.
If your hair is falling out or thin
ming out, don't wait another day. but
go to your druggist and get a bottle
of Partisan Sage, the truly efficient
hair grower.
Don't say, IT'S the same old story;
I've heard It before" but try bot
tie -at-a-risk.
He guarantees Partisan Sage to
grow hair, to stop falling hair, to
cure dandruff and stop scalp itch in
two weeks or money back.
Partisan Sage is the most invigor-
ating hair dressing made and is a
prime favorite with discriminating
ladies', because It makes the hair
soft, bright and appear twice as
abundant. 1t is antIseptic; 1t kills
all odors that are bound to arise
from exeretions OF the scalp and
everyone knows that sage is very
cooling to the scalp.
Partisan Sage Is inexpensive and
easily obtainable at drug and toilet

GUTTER POLITICIAN

ter in the Virginia debt litigation. We
gather from these reports which it
might be hoped are untrue, that the
idea which Mr.. Chiffon attempted to
convey to his audience at Sissonville,
was that Mr.. Hughess young son,
practising law in the Offices Of very
great LAWYER. in some wav influenced
the unanimous decision of the nine
members Of the United States Supreme
Court, Notwithstanding that at least
three and possibly four or five Of the
nine judges constituting the great
tribunal at that time were Democrats
OF a high type of ability and integrity
and that the chief Justice nf the court
was and is a Democrat. Any imputa-
ton Of dishonesty in the courts de-
cision in the Virginia debt suit, while
aimed practically at Mr.. Hughes, is
no less applicable to the other eight
judges.
Greater Politician.
These reports condemn Chiffon as a
politician Of the gutter, and we find
ourselves unable to comprehend the
sort Of audience he appealed to in this
way. Surely he imposed upon their
intelligence, but II he found auditors
in West Virginia who accepted and
seemed to approve his preaching Of
anarchy and treason, we have no hes

fancy In saving that be Judged Them

itancy in saying that he judged them
correctly.
The Chiffon attack upon this high
tribunal ought not to be dignified by
notice. A defense OF the court against
such an attack seems almost ridicu-
lOus, but since the American concep-
ton Of liberty amount to practically
unlimited license in the hands Of the
licentious, we are often called on to
discard dignity and conservatism and
even go into the mire In defense of our
sacred institutions. The United States
Supreme Court is the one institution
Of great power which may truly be said
to be non-partisan. The chief execu-
tive is a partisan creation. the two
branches of Congress are partisan
bodies, necessarily, but II is to the
credit of most of our partisan chief
executives UP to the time Of Wilson
that politics has played no part in
the appointment of supreme court
judges. Mr.. Taft. while president,
made four appointments to the court,
two of which, If we are correctly in
formed, were Democrats. MIR. Taft
elevated Democrat TO the chief
justiceship of the court. And so. at
least three and possibly five of the
court which Mr.. Chiffon impeaches
as much as he impeaches Mr.. Hughes,
and almost to the point Of treason,
were Democrats. The nine members
of the court do not act Independently
Of each other. 1t takes a majority to-
hand down decision. and more than
that. the debased politician who at
tempts to make political capital Of the
Virginia debt decision, knows himself
that 1t was an unanimous decision OF
this great non-partisan court.
Wholesale Advice.
II we were a good friend Of Chiffon
we would earnestly advice him to re-
wise his impression of the intelligence
of the people. II he comes to Green
brier he will do well to delete these
things from his speeches for he will
find no anarchists among our people
and few If any who would be guilty
of reasonable thoughts such as he
seems inclined to terminate.
We hope we have made ourselves
clear enough, and have put the case
strongly enough TO arouse spark Of
decency in the man who unworthily
wears senatorial toga and presumes
to represent commonwealth Of in
telligent and patriotic people, as Re-
publicans and interested in the sue

CORNWELL WEAK
IN LEWIS COUNTY

Democratic ticket" This is too much
like a bald. conceited blum that Re
publicans were only independent"
enough to vote the Democratic ticket,
while no Democratic voters would be
Independent enough to vote for
Hughes, Robinson Howard Suther-
land, or any other nominee on the
Republican ticket. This resentment
against such one-sided brag about
the independence" Of the Lewis
county voters has been more than in
tensified by the insistence OF Corn
well in pleading to the Republican
voters of this county ito vote for
Cornwell." He made It plain in his
speech here in Weston in the pri-
maries that he needed several thou
sands of Republican votes to be
elected, and he passed the hat to
Lewis county Republicans to furnish
a little more than its full quota of
his lamentable shortage.
Stuart F. Reed, the Republican
nominee for Congress in the Third
district, is we'll known in Lewis coun-
ty, and there is every indication that
he will draw votes away from his
Democratic opponent. Howard Suth-
erland will walk away with Chiffon
for the United States Senate, while
Wallace Gribble, nominee for state
senator, will do here Just what he will
do in Harrison and Doddridge coun-
ties-get all that belongs to him and
then some. The Republicans nomi-
nees on the county ticket were all
chosen out Of large fields in square
and open fight, and the very great
of candidates made it abso-
lutely certain that no hard feelings
could have been engendered where
every mans candidacy stood on its
own ground. The county ticket is
one that suits the Republican voters,
and many Democratic voters, too,
and there is no reason why every man
on it should not be carried to victory
with the regular majority of about
400 which will be given to Hughes,
Robinson, Sutherland, Reed and the
other state candidates.

Where Majorities Will Be Rolled
Up in November for the
Republican Ticket.

WESTON, Sept. 2S.-With the Re-
publicans united and harmonious, a
strong young mems club in the field
and the lukewarmness of the whole
Democratic ticket, on the part of
many Democrats, the Grand Old Par
ty is preparing to put Lewis county
in the list Of those which will tri-
umphantly help to elect Hughes, Rob
inson, Sutherland, Reed and the
whole state and county tickets.
1t was well known before the Dem
ocratic primaries that many of Lewis
county's most substantial Democrats
did not take kindly to the candidacy
Of ,Cornwell. Their argument was
that IL the Democrats had anything
for a campaign slogan this year 1t
was the simple word Wilson" and
Lewis county party workers argued
that since Cornwell had so strongly
attacked Wilson's administration in
his Hampshire Review, he would be
a weak man to place at the head Of
the state ticket besides the name Of
the man he had so severely criticized.
Strong efforts have been made in this
county to smooth over matters since
Cornwell had such hard work to get
n few votes more than his nearest
competitor in the primaries; but
Cornwell himself pointed the way to
Lewis countians. and Republicans
now say that If Wilson was subject
for criticism by Cornwell before he
entered the race for governor, that
is the best reason why Republicans
NAV as well take his word for 1t now
and vote for Hughes, whom Cornwell
is striving to defeat in West Virginia.
What puts Lewis county Republic
cans on their mettle more than any
thing else is the continual argument
Of Democratic party leaders here that
Lewis county voters are independ-
ent. and therefore Wen carry the
county for Cornwell and the whole

the political effect of such cam

DDS could not prove successful in our
opinion without casting most degrad-
ing reflections upon the whole people
of the state, and we are unwilling to
degrade our neigAbors in our mind by
believing in advance that these Chill
tonesque methods are n political force
to be reckoned with in the consuma-
ton of party success. but every In
telligent West Virginian must feel hui
inflated in the eyes of the outside

preachments are regarded as useful
instruments of political warfare.
