that the other Is an unknown nonentfy who was brought
forward because be had no political record, and there
fore could be used nicely smoothing over the rather
sharp factonal differences ofhs party but would be
Ike putty in the hands of the handful Of men who
could make very good use in their business of gov
ernor if they could get their hands on one.
As contrasted with these class candidates the record
shows that Judge Morgan from the first has been the
candidate Of the whole people He made his primary
campaign on that basis, and he is making his cam
paign for the general election in the way. What
is more important he has record extending over
long period of years which shows that this kind OF
campaign squares with the man, and that he will be
able to keep his promises And that is the thing that
ought to count in an electon-the record of the can
didate It is many times eloquent than what he
has to say about what he will do in the future. Patrick
Henry, the great orator of the Revolution, who had
way of putting things directly, declared in speech
in the Virginia convention that he had but one lamp
by which his feet were guided, and that was the lamp
Of experience and he supplements that by saying, Il
know of way of Judging OF the future but by the
past.
On test of that kind the gubenatonal contest in
West Virginia this fall would be decidedly one sided.
But unfortunately there many voters this year who
are not going to permit any test but what they conceive
to be their own personal interests to guide them They
are going to get theirs if they can, and dell take the
rest Of the state In such situation double rs2P9n-
sDty rests upon the voters who do care for the higher
things Between this and the second day of next
month many of these voters will have to make up their
minds whether they would rather put strong and able
man in The Office Of the states chief executive or stick
TO a weak candidate of their party and thus con
tribute to turning the state over to band OF radicals
who doubtless have plans that are definite enough but
which are so bold that they have not dared to conhde
them to their candidate

STOPPING ROAD REcKLESSNESS.

DUBLIC opinion will sustain Judge Lowe of the
Criminal court. in his warning from the bench
yesterday that the practice Of reckless automobile dnv-
ing in this county must stop, and in his sentence of SIX
months in Jail and fines totaling $500 upon youth
found guilty of that ofense.
Even the best Of West Virginia roads are not suit
able for speedways. The lay Of the land prevents
that Some of the most travelled highways are SO tor
turous that is all they can do to take Of the
ordinary traffic, and lunatic at the wheel of an
automobile is menace to every other person on the
road at the same time. In order to make the roads
safe for the people who want to use them for legitl-
mate purposes the lundtics must be kept off
has been employed without much avail, and it is high
lime that he penalties in the road laws be applied
sternly Judge Loves action yesterday indicates
clearly that if the county and local authorities do their
duty in the matter he will to it that reckless drivers
gel what is coming to them.

HERE TO AID PLANS
 IF AMERICANA

To ascertain what has been done, what can be accomplished and what will be carried on by the American legion, R. N. Searle of the National Americanism committee of the Ameri can legion, arrived in Phoenix yester- day on an inspection tour of the west ern states.
 With it's 10000 posts and membership of more than 100000, MT. Searle be- lieves that the American legion has greater opportunities for community ton in the country. MT. Searle says he finds the same condition existing here that he has met elsewhere-the problem that all young organizations have to overcome-of feeling it's way until it is firmly established and comes into its full strength. Despite the fact that the legion has not yet come into realization of its power, the former service man believes it to be one of the leading factors in carrying on the Americanization program.
 That every post owes a duty to the community is the idea MT. Searle is conveying to the leaders on his official tour. It is up to the posts to engage in community betterment work in whatever form it can be most effective whether in teaching English to foreign CTS, aiding the Boy Scouts, stimulating an interest in local affairs or in educa- tiona1 problems. Summing it up, he claims that the object of the legion should be to rectify any conditions in the community that are not satisfac- tory.
 Searle served overseas for fl months as battalion sergeant major with the 330th field artillery.
