wilson to Blame.

Leading Democrats in Congress
have reached the point where even
they, when not talking for publica-
ton, make no pretense that Presi-
dent Wilson Is not personally to
blame for the conditions which pre-
vail in Mexico, for the robbery and
!, murder of Americans and the out
raging Of their women. They admit
that had the president followed up
his first warning against such crimes
by sending cavalry command into
Mexico to hang the murderers and
then return promptly to this country,
not only could intervention have been
avoided but American citizenship
would have been respected, even
while the Mexicans were killing each
othr at will.
Senator j. Ham Lewis, Illinois
Democrat. introduced resolution
empowering the president to utilize
the armed forces of the United States
to restore order in Mexico, while
Senator Lippitt, Rhode Island Repub-
!, lican, introduced a resolution in
structing the president to utilize the
army and navy "for the protection of
American lives and property in Mex
ico." After heated debate, the
Republicans withdrew their opposi-
tion to the reference OF these resolu-
tion to committee.
On Angst 81, 1913, President VIII
son publicly said, Eve should let
every one who assumes to exercise
authority in any part OF Mexico know

Liabilities Are Given at $261,

$63,599.98.

PARKERSBURG.J Jan. 24.-At the
first meeting of creditors in the bank
ruptcy matter of w. ]. Holden, of this
city. shortly after he had been ad-
indicated bankrupt through invol-
untary proceedings, the trustees were
appointed and the appraisers named.
the bond of the trustees being fixed
at $4,000. At the meeting Referee
T. A. Brown directed the bankrupt to
prepare and file his schedules on the
following Saturday.
It was learned afterward that 1t
would be impossible for Mr.. Holden
to prepare the schedules in the time
mentioned, and he was granted tur-
Their time. They have just been COM
plted and it is said that 1t was a
prodigious task on account OF the
number of creditors, the completely
of the accounts and the range OF
TERRITORY the creditors covered, and
from the fact that in many of the
tranactions mere memorandum had
been made.
The schedules cover about fifty
typewriter pages and the Items
number between four and five hun
dred ranging from small amounts
up into the thousands, the largest
item being ten thousand dollars, on
accommodation paper. The amounts
due creditors are, generally speaking,
on cattle purchased or contracted for,
these creditors being located IN a
dozen counties, and many of these
debts are unsecured. In many in
stances in the items in the schedules
the following notation is made:
Losses on cattle purchased by bank
rupt under contract" or Losses un-
known but estimated"
Losses Are Very Heavy.
In the summaries in the schedules
the total liabilities are given at $751;
1888, which is q larger amount
than was anticipated. In fact, IT Is
one Of the greatest failures that has
occurred in this section Of the state
for many years. The total assets are
given in the schedules at $6S,599.98.
This includes the property belonging
to the bankrupt in this city, farms
and other interests in Harrison, Cal
houn, Gilmer and other counties, the
real estate being valued at $3S,922,

Zinn and His Work.

The declaration recently by Lost
Creek farmer that the county agrlcul,
tural officer was needless one has
stirred resentment among leading
farmers OF the county to a high pitch
They not only endorse the Office Of
greatly needed but they also strongly
approve the Jealous and capable work
OF the incumbent of that office.
It can not be successfully argued
that the office is not the correct
thing to have, nor can it be success
fully denied that farmers generally
need such expert aid in their work.
Nor can 1t be successfully contra
dicted that W. d. linn, county agent,
Is doing wonderful work among the
farmers OF the county in leading
them to the best and most practical
methods. His own experience as an
agriculturist has been highly success
full, SO wonderful in fact that he has
acquired considerable national fame
anu his achievements have been most
widely and favorably commented on.
The expenditure in the conduct OF
this line of work Is certainly mere
trliie when it is compared with the
value Of results accomplished In so
short time. There should be no
thought Of abollshing the Office Of
county agricultural agent and GER
tainly less thought of not retaining
Mr.. linn to carry on a great work
which is merely in its incipiency in
this county.

T,rrnulty. Barker.

Joseph P. Tumulty, the official
barker, or advance agent, Of Mr.. Will
: son, Is now inspiring numerous
: stories regarding the drastic note
which the president is preparing to
send to England. Having pretended
to extract few tail feathers from
the German eagle, Mr.. Wilson is
/. being widely advertised in his COM
:. ing hair-raising performance OF
twisting the tail of the British lion.
OF course, Mr.. Wilson knows that
! 1t was the United States which es-
y tablished the doctrine OF Continuous
}, voyage" and that the supreme court
!. of the United States has upheld that
doctrine. England and other I'M
II, friendly European nations were at
= tempting to nullify the blockade OF
the Confederate states by shipping to
Mexico munitions and supplies de-
signed for ultimate delivery to the
southern states. Under the doctrine
Of continuous voyage" this country
seized such goods en- route. This Is
; precisely what England purposes to
3. do with goods consigned to the
smaller European neutrals but des-
tined to reach Germany and Austria.
:. Secretary Lansing has said that
latter the war" this doctrine should
be revised, as against the interest OF
neutrals, but he is too honest to sug-
gest that 1t can be changed while
the war is In progress, and especially
!. by the United States, which estab-
). lished 1t. But then, the tail twisting
- will not be done in order to change
the doctrine-only to make votes.

POWERFUL SERMONS
BEING DELIVERED BY
GREAT EVANGELIST

cess OF the revival is now assured.
DR.. Morrison took for his theme,
THE Value OF a Human Soul" and
the remarkable manner In which he
pictured this God-lent heritage Of
mans was something to be long re-
membered. He drew pictures Of all
the great wealth OF earth, making
them commonplace and easily under
stood, and then contrasted them with
the worth of soul. The people lis
tening intently ana awestruck, were
SO deeply impressed that wonder
ment could be plainly seen on almost
every face. The evangelist brought
out as his central thought in the
great discourse, the fact that the soul
OF the poor, outcast, the wayward, is
quite as precious to the Father in
Heaven as that or the well-to-do or
the rich. The story Of old Sam Nc
Curdy, an ex-convlct and general
bad man, and how he was converted
and finally brought to God, also how
he became one Of the really valuable
workers in the church, moved many
to tears.
1t can be plainly seen that this
versatile, scholarly, and above all
else, intensely earnest old man, with
his quaint, peculiar ways OF striking
home, his lovable nature and his
gripping pull Of magnetism backed
by, 4 zeal which comes only OF God,
is bound to turn old Clarksburg right
about face and head the people here
in a direction which is foreign indeed
to shining and the worthless living

The Mexican situation.

When news OF the killing Of eigh-
teen Americans by Villas men In
Mexico was confirmed beyond ques-
ton. Secretary Lansing issued a
statement, by direction of the presi'
dent, saying that the victims had only
themselves to blame, as the admins
tration had repeatedly warned Amer
leans to keep out Of Mexico.
When senators and representatives
without regard to party demanded
that the president take steps to pun
ish the perpetrators OF the outrage,
the president caused an announce
ment to be made from the White
House that he would not intervene
in Mexico or send troops there to
punish the wholesale murderers OF
Americans. In the SENATE, Senator
"Bill' Stone, chief spokesman Of the
administration on foreign affairs, de-
clared that those who went into
Mexico now were adventurous and
foolhardy."
When United States Consul Ed
wards, at Juarez, announced that, In
accordance with instructions from
Washington, he had asked and Sc
cured guarantees Of safe conduct
from Carranza for the Americans
who had been murdered, and that
Carranza's General" Gavira, had as
sured him, and through him the an
fortunate Americans, that the jour-
ney to their mine was safe because
the country had been cleared Of vii
listas, the administration sought to
discredit the statement of its own
consul
Congress has called upon the pres
ident for statements regarding the
more than 800 Americans who have
been killed in Mexico, the amount
of property which has been taken
from them and the other outrages
which have been committed there,
but the state department is stall
ing" and delaying in every way pos
slble the submission of the data
called for.
Meanwhile, trustworthy advices
from Mexico indicate the most horri-
BILE conditions with ever present like
lihood that more Americans will be
murdered in cold blood, and increas-
ing evidence OF the almost criminal
blunder OF President Wilson when he
recognized Carranza.
And finally, there has come the
by the New York
World. the official organ of this ad-
ministration, that Mr.. Wilson has en-
tered into an agreement with Argen-
tina, Brazil. Chile, Bolivia, Uruguay
and Guatemala that this country will
not invade Mexico or even send
troops to punish the murderers of
Americans without the consent of the
countries named. Such an agreement
ia not. of course, binding on the
United States because the president
has no right, under the constitution,
to make an agreement with foreign
country without the consent OF the
Senate, but such an agreement is an
addiction OF the rights of the United
States to protect its citizens and
when broken. as 1t almost certainly
ultimately must be, It will serve only
to estrange the South American coun-
tries and injure the relations exists
ing between them and this country.

DR.. Morrison Brings a New
Message to the People Of
CIarksburg and Vicinity

DR.. Morrison delivered three pow
erful sermons yesterday in the First
Methodist Episcopal church, one at
the regular morning service hour,
one in the afternoon when he ad-
dressed upwards Of one thousand
men. and one in the evening at which
time the great editice was so crowded
that hundreds Of people went away
when they beheld the number inside.
1t was anticipated that the evening
attendance would probably tax the
capacity of the building and special
arrangements were planned for the
occasion. A temporary platform was
constructed between the main audi
forum and the great annex on the
side and the entire floor space
damned with chairs. In short time
all were taken.
The evening service opened fifteen
minutes earlier than the regular
hour, q number Of selections being
rendered by the big chorus. Prof.
Hiatt has already brought about
splendid harmony and is getting re-
suits from this big body of singers
which he says far exceeds his expec-
tations with so little practice.
At the close Of the singing DR..
King invoked the Divine blessing
upon the revival, and tins entire COM
munity. After prayer DR.. Morrison
rose to speak; 1t was quickly seen
nat ba wae facing hurdrada nn0n
hundreds who had not as yet heard
him. There was hush, a silence
complete and then the grand old man
Of the South country began. With
every word his hearers seemed more
and more impressed and soon hun
dreds were leaning forward in their
seats, open-mouthed and wonder
struck. He is indeed a revelation to
