LETS STAND TOGETHER.

COPIES Of the Harris Handbook. edition Of 1918,
have not yet reached Farmont. but according to the
newspaper reports i contains an article BY Governor
Comw about the part this state played in the war which
embodes sentiments every loyal West Vngnian will cheer
fully subscribe to-
The whole war program. the governor tuhfuly points
out, hinged upon West Virginia coal, oil and gas And
he urges that partisan schemes and partisan wrangs be
abandoned in order that the position this gave the state
may be maintained.
It perhaps too much to ask that partisan feelings be
wiped out in this any other state. certain amount Of
it benefit rather than detriment But we can cult
yate state solidarity than we now have and this should
be done. The people Of West Virginia should stand
together whenever the interests Of the state differ with the
interests Of the people Of other states and because Of our
interests Of the country and the nature Of our principal pro-
ducts that IS oftener than many people would imagine
But, important even than that we should stand
together to promote the common welfare to widen the
market for West Virginia coal. to stimulate interest
modem farming and to promote the growth Of our schools
ard commercial interests Since he became governor John
Comwell has done much to promote feeling Of state
pride and realization that in spite Of the fact that there
mayno seem to be much community Of interest among the
people Of the different sections Of the state we really are
bound up together.
He ought to have more active assistance in ti, from
The leading men Of the commonwealth. Perhaps what he
has said in the Harris Handbook article will make some
Of them appreciate fully duty which they owe to
the state
