pouring in from every section condemn
ing it. Many Democrats are severe in
their condemnation because the nomi-
ton of the editor of The Review is con-
coded by every well informed person,
in both parties, in the State.
We have been advised by many
friends to ignore these things and
make no reference to them, either in
them. either in these columns or in pub
lie addresses, but our habit of speaking
frankly and openly will not permit us
to pass them by without entering q
vigorous protest. If the editor of The
Review were not candidate and if he
were not supporting persons response
Bile for such methods he would at once
roundly condemn them. He pledged
himself, when candidate to conduct a
fair, decent, Democratic campaign,
He assumed that those who might op-
pose him would do likewise.
The Democratic voters will pass on
these questions at the Primary on June
9th and their verdict will so strongly
condemn such methods of campaigning
that we believe it will be long time
before they are renewed in the Demo-
cratic Party in West Virginia.
