Prof. and Mrs. Hunt were present

the first time. Mr.. Hunt will have
charge of the department of Princi-
pals Of state graded schools. Mr..

River Falls Normal school during
the first semester but was unable to
get a release from his work before
the present quarter. The school
is to be congratulated upon being
able to secure such a man as Mr..
Hunt. His acquaintance in the state

On last Wednesday afternoon the
first two games of indoor baseball
in the inter class series were played.
The three teams participating were
Freshmen, Sophomores and Third
Years. The team winning these
two games was awarded the privi-
lege of playing the winner Of the
Junior Senior game on Friday after
noon for the championship of the
school. The first game of the after
noon was between the Freshman
and Sophomore team. The Fresh
men put up a valiant fight, but the
ability of the upper classmen was
too great for them to overcome and
they were defeated by the score of
Is to 2. In the second game the
SophomOres lined up against the
Third Year team. The Third Years
had tasted of the cup Of victory
when they won the basketball
championship and were determined
to win in baseball, also. The Soph-
omore team did not seem so inclined
however, and when the seventh in
ming was over the score was ii to 7
in favor Of the Sophomores. On
Friday afternoon the two final
games were played. The opening
game was between the Junior and
Senior teams. There was a great
interest in the outcome of this
game, as the rivalry between these
classes is very keen. The Seniors
put terrible fright into every Juni-
or present in the first inning when
they drove these scores across the
home plate and allowed the Juniors
only one score. From this time on,
however, the Junior defense was
like a stone wall, the Seniors being
able to score only one more run
during the remaining six innings.
In the Fourth inning the Juniors
tied the score and in the fifth in
ming they secured the lead, which
they kept until the game was over.
The final score was II to in favor
Of the Juniors.

The Republican Party.

There is an effort forward in West
Virginia which seeks to deliberately
divert Republicans from the first line
Of duty and interest: The Republican
party.
There is more at stake in this cam
paign than Ira +. Robinson or John ].
Cornwell The Republicans cannot
lose Robinson's election without losing
much more than a Republican COVER
nor. Nor can they permit the election
Of Cornwell without losing that which
1t may require twenty years TO re-
tricve.
The Republican party, under the
peculiar conditions which obtain is
the biggest thing involved in this cam
paign. There never was a time when
the fun strength and integrity of the
Republican party were so necessary

Democratic leaders wuo had been
counting largely upon the help prom
ised by Ninson, Mckell. et al. are
disappointed, not TO say completely
disguised, with the iiasco pulled on
recently when the demands made
upon Judge Robinson by strOng-arIl
politicians. representing tax dudglng
interests were translated into alleged
promises and given publication. They
were disappointed because tue strong

pointment tnat came to the Demo-
Gratis on the point OF this attempted
expose was IN the instrument CHOSEN
to make the thing public.
James II. Marcum, expert party
fence jumper and chronic otiice-seelS-
cr, is u thorn In the side OF straight
thinking and straight acting men in
ali parties. His political history zig
Gags like rail fence. He entered
the Confederate army when about
twenty years old. But he didn't stay.
He became in some manner anllIated
with the Union cause, and draws a
pension today. Sometime after the
war, nobody knows just when. he be-
came a Democrat. No sooner had he
become Democrat than he began to
seek office, habit when still cungs

ministration. he was postmaster OF
Huntington four years. Upon his re-
tiIement from that office he was elect
ed as Democrat to the state senate.
lie served during the first session as
u Democrat. During the concluding
session vi the term when u close fight
was on over the election OF United
States senator. he changed his poll
tics over night and voted with the
Republicans and since that time has
more or less regularly held office I'M
der Republican administrations.
In the memorable Dawson-Teter
fight in 1904. he was conspicuous,
yea, changeable figure. He started
out for Teter. but with characteristic
agility changed to Dawson. While
engaged in exposing Teter methods
he published confidential letter sent
to him while he was on the Tetor
side, and made this memorable, even
] il laconic. summing up OF his politi-
cal character: When l and my
brothers we're affiliated with the Dem

reer extends further than has yet
been set forth. He has held the fol-
lowing offices under Republican gov
ernors: Adjutant general. member
OF Berkeley Springs board. member
OF prison board, and game warden.
He was an applicant for the position
Of game warden under the Hatfield
administration. and upon failure to
realize this ambition he became a bit
ter antagonist OF Governor Hatfield.
and is now fighting the Republican
state ticket because he is not in Of
fee.
This is the man who was chosen
by the Vinson-M cKcll Democratic Aid
Society to launch the conspiracy
against Judge Robinson. 1t is no
wonder that Democratic leaders are
disguised with the lack OF gumption
shown by their auxlliaries.

CorpyeII Only.

All over West Virginia the Demo-
Gratis. who claimed everything in the
first few weeks Of the campaign, have
now narrowed down their claims 10
one man-Cornwell, whom they still
profess TO believe will defeat Judge
Robinson. This is done for two rea-
sons, first, because their claim that
Hughes would lose this state they
themselves knew never had any basis
In the shadow OF fact. and to claim
everything in sight made their claim
Of Cornwell's election equally absurd
with the claim for Wilson's victory
in West Virginia; but, second. and
more important, Democrats have cen
tered their campaign on Cornwell
alone. and are now trying 10 blind
their fight on him alone by declaring
that he is the one man on the Demo
cratic ticket with strength
There is nothing in Cornwell's rec.
ord. his personality or his ability &c
draw votes from Judge Robinson But
( something has to be done. a good many
words have TO be spoken. to cover uT
/ the fact that the Democratic organ.
