The following is self-explana-
tory:
Mrs. Stephen B. Elkins has
pleasure in stating to those who
are interested in her, that she is
opposed to Woman's Suffrage
for many intelligent reasons.
That she is one of the Honorary
Presidents of the West Virginia
Association Opposed to Woman
Suffrage; that Mrs. Oliphant is
much loved niece of her step
daughter, Mrs. Oliphant, of
Trenton, where each have lived
Off years, esteemed, loevd and
respected by the best people of
New Jersey.
October seventeeth nineteen
sixteen, Mrs. G. A. Oliphant was
a guest in Mrs. Elkins' home,
when she spoke at Elkins and
went to Belington to speak-ia

from both Belington and Davis.
That Mrs. Oliphant has stand

Morgantown, w. Va, Oct. 25.
The Press agent of the Anti
Suffragists of West Virginia,
one w. H. Conway, of Fairy
mont, has sent letters to many
prominent men of the state urg-
ing them to contribute money
t o him to use in opposing Wo-
man Suffrage at the coming
election. His appeal is not con-
fined to the members of any one
party, but necessarily it is work
ed differently when he begs of
a Democrat from what it is
when he appeals to Republi-
can. This is indicated in the
following copy of one of his
Democratic appeals when ne
asks his prospective victim for
lists of men who might contrib
ute and urges the Importance of
indicating each mans politics.
Mr.. Conaway's letter, which
he sends only to know Demo- :
Gratis, insinuates that the West
Virginia Equal Suffrage Asso-
which is conducting the
votes-for-women campaign
in this State, is in favor of Re
publican carries the insinuation
that these same women are a
unit in an effort to defeat Judge
Hughes. AS a matter of fact the
Advisory Board of the State
Suffrage Association has at it's
head Judge j. G. McWhorter,o of
Buckhannon, a prominent Dem

simply because he happens to be on

the Republican nominee last year,

Now, Mr. Voter, or Mrs. or Miss

to your mind the actions of an Of

in ANNUAL REVIEW
Thin Line of Veterans Marches at
Kansas City.

(By the International News service.)
Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. SO-Fifteen
thousand blue-clad veterans OF the six
ties marched here today in the annual
parade at the fiftieth encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic.
Promptly at 10 o'clock eighteen bands
and five drum corps simultaneously
broke into a monster symphony of The
Star Spangled Banner" and as the first
strains of the anthem reverberated
through the streets. the long thin line of
grizzled veterans swung into step.
Every year witnesses a thinner line. and
this was said to be the smallest number
Of marchers in fifty years Of encamp-
ments. There was no lessening of the
enthusiasm, however. With heads erect
and backs stiffened, the nations heroes
swung through the principal streets Of
the city with zest that behed their
years
Grand Marshal Gen. Cusil Lechtman
headed the parade.
Tonight the annual campfire will be
held, and tomorrow the first business ses-
sion will be held. Friday comes the close
of the reunion, with the election of Of
fcers.
