THEY ARE UNF AIR,
SAYS CORNWELL
Referri TO Articles Purported to
Have Appeared In His
PAPER.

Section 13(a) Of Chapter q of the
Acts of 1915-(The Corrupt Practices
AcU provides:
mo person shall publish, issue or
circulte or cause to be published,
issued or circulated, any anonymous
letters, circular placard or other PUB
LEGATION tending to influence voting
at any election"
The penalty for violating this SEQ
ton is: Disqualification from voting
or holding office for a period of five
years, or if holding office vacation
from the same on conviction. Second
offense, disqualification forever of
voting or holding office.
Despite the law there is being mali
ed out from Charleston and Hunting
ton anonymously, to Democratic vot-
ers all over the state, what purport
to be extracts from articles which
appeared in my newspaper and voters
are asked to construe into attacks on
President Wilson and his administr-
ton. If these extracts are genuine
and fairly quoted why do those res.
ponsible from them not stand sponsor
for their publication? Why violate
9 plain, penal statut. to circulate
them?
Each of these quotations | have
seen is a garbled sentence or para
graph taken out of the body of the
article and standing alone the intent
and meaning of the whole are per
verted.
There are more than two hundred
issues OF my newspaper within the
period covered by the alleged ex-
tracts. Almost each and every issue
contains articles discussing party pol
icies and measures, the Tariff, Cur
rency, Reform. Antitrust, Legisla
ton, the Income Tax, etc, and are a
defense of Democratic doctrines and
the Democratic administration
These are ignored and less than "a
dozen issues plundered for material
t. misrepresent me to the Democratic
voters.
For twenty-five years l have, on
the stump, with my resources and
my newspaper supported the Demo
cratic party, its candidates and its
principles.

honest opinions, nor am | willing now
to surrender the right American cit
zens have to criticise a public of
fetal, state or federal. If l must sur.
render that right to obtain the guber.
material nomination then l shall go
without it.
1t is my effort to live and act open.
ly; to conduct clean and honorable
campaign, free from factionalism and
bitterness, and ] believe thoughtful
Democrats will heartily disapprove OF
such Misrepresentation and unlawful
methods as those referred to, especial

was furnished, as I am reliably in
formed, by a Republican state house
official.
Very truly,

BELGIAN REFUGEES BECOME
PART OF ENGLISH LIFGE

London, Jan 22.-Most of the 2O0,-
coo Belgian refugees in England have
now been assimilated into English
social and industrial life. About
10000 refugees formerly of the well
to do class are now maintained by
hospitality, as are also a residue
who are unable to look after them
selves and are consequently main
tanned by the government in camp
on one of the local exposition
grounds. Work has been found for
practically all of the Belgian work
men, who number about 10000 out of
the $4,000 men refugees. There are
now in England no Belgians who are
fit for military service, except those
exempted for war work Very few
undeslrables have been found among
the refugees, and they were early
taken in control.
In the early days of the war, The
proposal was made to establish a
separate Belgian colony. But this
fell through, and Belgans work under
the same conditions as Englishmen.
Three-ffths of the refugees are wom-
en- and children, and of these large
numbers are employed in factories
and as servants and nursemaids.
Belgians now living as England's
guests are composed partly of uufor-
tunate of the lower class and partly
of persons, particularly women, whose
incomes have been cut off and Of pro-
fessional men past military age whose
clients have been scattered.

In a field near Baarle-Nassau, close
TO the frontier, a whole set Of con.
trivances has been discovered which
enable a man TO cross the line un-
harmed The principal object was a
fiat oblong piece of wood, provided
with a rubber-coated groove length
wise down the center. Then, by
means of hinged and jointed side
supports, the wire is pushed upwards
and a tunnel-like opening appears,
through which an ordinary-sized man,
lying on his back, may safely wriggle
without coming in contact with the
fatal wire. The official report says:
"The owner has not presented him
self to claim the return of his prop
erty."

War Upon Pain.

Pain is a visitor to every house and
usually it comes quite Unexpectedly.
But you are prepared for every emer-
gency if you keep a small bottle of
Sloan's Liniment handy. 1t is the
greatest pain killer ever discovered.
Simply laid on the skin-no rubbing
required-it drives the pain away. 1t
is really wonderful.

around the Panama Exposition with
wet feet, | came home with my neck
so stiff that I couldn't turn. | applied

THE ElFFEL TOWER
"TIME REGULATIONS"

Paris, Jan. 22.-The Eiffel tower,
which transmits the official and sup
posedly exact hour three times a day
to ships scattered over the sea, as
well as to all land wireless stations,
suspended its morning transmission
recently; the effect was a general
inquiry as to whether the Eiffel tower
had gone wrong. 1t is still working
twice a day.
The time is furnished to the wire
less station by two clocks, one in
a cellar 25 yards below the surface
of the earth, protected by a double
covering of copper and glass against
changes of temperature and of atmos-
pheric pressure; the other Is plunged
into a tank where the temperature is
maintained at constant point. The
clocks are called time regulators" \"
wound up every 80 seconds by a sys-
tenn of batteries placed alongside a
dozen observation instruments. The
time regulators are verified by COM
parison with meridian glasses. All
the indications thus taken are cen
traliZed in the clock room, where, at
fixed hours, commanding appliances
put the Eiffel tower wireless post in
movement, sending the exact hour
within the hundredth part of sec
