to hold a meeting of Democratic
Legislators at Charleston in Decem-
Der, W. W. Stevens, delegate from

"At the coming session we are due
to have little legislation for man.
kind in scneral-teNpayerS in par
tcular. And ii isn't bit too early
something as the boys say. Already
the organized forces are planting
their heels and preparing to stand
against any proposition to the pco-
pies money.
FARMERS and business men scrv-
ed notice in the recent elections
THAT the war is over and we are all
due to receive pcace-timc prices.
We favor a square deal for all and
a chance for everybody to keep on
doing business at the old stand.
From the standpoint of a farmer we
feel that it is absolutely obligatory
that the Democracy Of West Vir-
ginia get busy in busincss-Iikc

CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT.

The meeting at French Lick to ar
range for a Presidential candidate
reminds us of the meeting called
after the Civil War to diSband the
Democratic party" The meeting
sent for Allen G.. Thurman. the odd
Roman. who WAS told of the object
al fhc conference and was asked to
make an address. Without rising
he said: "'Do YOU suppose to dis
band the Democratic party in q
room thirty by forty?" That broke
up the convention. and within two
wears Allen G.. Thurman began lis
Industrious career in the United
States Senate. elected as the Demo-
cratic nominee.
No doubt many private cars will
ere long invade West Virginia for
The purpose of sounding" and Slim
uiatlng sentiment for this candidate
or that. But the next Democratic
nominee for he Presidency will not
De named Ill q private car. nor ON

urcd men in a room in a hotel at
E:3o IN the morning." The country
has tried Presidents named tn.t,
way quite to its hearts content.
me lesson of ihc recent election
IS that the people ar not looking for
individuals except as they can be
trusted to represent measures and
10 be true to principles. The Demo-
cratic party has standards and prin-
clplcS. Its record is it's platform
and 1t will nominate Il candidate
VINO Hts the record and can be trust
cu TO apply the principles of the
party to new questions as they arise

that the Wall Street bunch will not
DC consulted. All the efforts TO in
Hoducc NrinScr' candidates of the
interests by leading them around
and bringing them in under local
auspices will not avail.
The next Democratic Convention
Will not be captured. The Democrat
&c masses understand now how to
locus sentiment; and any politician
With brains enough to lead ought to
comprehend that the party is strong
ct now than it has been for years,
solely because it is the party of the
people and is not under the sus-
plclon OF any secret control. If il
Is TO win ii must remain so.-Gdzetfe
The above is timely. The recen,
election makes it look like a Demo.
cratic year in 1924, but no set OF
men can pick a candidate. A can
didate to win must be one that the
people will stand by in 1924 and
that time is too far distant to say
now who dhat man may be.
