Answering "Fidelis" in the Expo
nent, all the Telegram needs say is
that the Wheeling liquor stories APP
pearing in the Telegram were all
clipped from the Wheeling Tele-
graph, George A. Laughlin's news
paper. which is putting up more
pronounced fight against the boot
leggers OF West Virginia than any
other newspaper in West Virginia.
If the stories are untrue the fault
should be laid ut the doors OF the
Wheeling newspaper. but that news
paper ought to be in position to
know more about 1t than "Fidelis. .
who lives here, and II they are I'M
true. the unfairness of their publ
cation rests upon the shoulders Of
that dry" newspaper. The Wheeling
newspaper is not, for Rosenbloom,
neither is the Telegram.

the start, and as the people haye
learned more of him It has grown
stronger. They liked IN the begin,

manner. and they have liked oil the
way through the admirable way. In
which he has displayed these quaIl-
ties.

Outside of the Mountain State Pa
