What do the people OF our
town know about their pubic
schools. How many of them
ever go inside Of school build
ing, except on ocasions of spe-
cial entertainments? What do
thew know from personal obser-
vations? They send their chill
dren there for six hours every
day for nine months of the year
and that is about the end of it.
The public schools are too much
neglected by the people. They
are left as it were to run them
selves. One can see that more
school visitation by parents
would be a great stimulus to
both teachers and pupils. Why
not give little more attention
to the training in the school?

SENATOR FRENCH MAKES /
STATEMENT

Il
Bluefeld, w. Va. May 49,
In circular which is being ex-
tensively distributed over the
State and published in the Press,
headed .SUNFAIR" Hon. John
J. Cornwell charges that in vio-
lation of the Corrupt Practices
Act, and as Unfair to him, there
is being mailed out from Char
lesion and Huntington, anono-
mously to Democratic voters all
over the State, what purports to
be extracts from articles which
appeared in his newspaper, the
Hampshire Review, and which
voters are asked to construe as
an attack upon President Wilson
and his administration"
| have been repeatedly told
that the impression is being
made upon the minds of many,
that this charge is intended to
apply to me. In order to re-
move any such false impression,
| wish to say that | have had
absolutely nothing whatever to
do with mailing or circulating
the extracts referred to. either
directly or indirectly, nor my
headquarters, and / am sure it
was not the intention of Senator
Cornwell to make such an i'm
preston.
In my announcement | stated:
In becoming a candidate, | am
prompted by no desire to oppose
the distinguished gentlemen who
have announced themselves, but
do so in order that the Demo-
Gratis voters of the State may
choose from among US whom
they will have as their candidate
for Governor" and | have con-
sistently maintained this atti-
tude.
The conditions in West Vir-l
ginia are not only bad but seri-
Gus, The people are not only
being oppressed by unjust bur
dens of taxation, but are being
derived of their RIGHTS and lib
critics as citizens. Relief from
these unfortunate conditions
can in my opinion come only
through Democratic Admins
tratiOn.
Ia order to carry the election
this fall and secure this change
for the good of our State, we
must have a united and harmo-
NOUS Party and no candidate
for a Democratic nomination in
the Primary, from the highest
to the lowest should do any,
thing to cause discussions in the
party. If we would win the
election this year, we must de-
serve to win by rising above per-
sonal and fractional strife and
discord. If we do this, there is
no doubt in my mind but that
thousands of the indepe tienu
and patriotic voters in the Re
publican and other parties will
vote with us this year for a
change of administration and
better conditions in our state.
Very sincerely,
(adv.) D. E. FRENCH.

At the meeting in Belington, it is
hoped to have the officers Of the Farm
Bureau present. This should insure a
good attendance. There are lots of
good people in that section of the
country who could help greatly to
strengthen the farmers organization
and at the same time perhaps derive
some benefit themselvs by associa
ton with other good folks of the
community if they would decide to
spend little of their snare time in
the farmers meeting. What is true
of Belington that is also true else
where. To make the appeal direct,
