Congressman is Elected in 1St
District by Republicans

The first Republican congress-
ional victory in West Virginia
in eight years and accompanying
gains in the house of delegates
were hailed Wednesday Of last
week by party leaders as the
initial step in rebuilding our own
majorities for the 1910 election.
The cavity industrial
northern panhandle swung a.
way from ardent New Deal
congressman Robert L. Ram
sey, incumbent, and gave c. A.

Mrs. Ida Whittico on Vacation
in Nv York, Guest of Monroes'

Last Friday, November II,
Mrs. Ida E. Whittico left for
Baltimore, Maryland, where she
by agreement, met and became
the guest Of DR.. George Monroe,
wife and son Billy, to witness
the football game between
Morgan college and. Hampton
Institute. After the game, they
were to motor back to the Mon
'roe's home in .Elkhorn, Long
Island, N. Y, where she, Mrs.
Whlttico, was to be the guest
on her vacation for the next 2
or 3 weeks Since that time we
have heard from her by wire and
phone several times, each time
information was received to the
tune that all was we'll and that
they were having a most plea
SAINT time. They were to leave
for Boston and Connecticut
visiting other friends. By the
way, they are exceedingly jubi-
liant in the sections of the state
whre Republicanism is running
wild and where the prospective
outlook is wild in Pennsylvania
enthusiasm. When they passed
through Pennsylvania so en-
thusiastic was the Republican
atmosphere till hold ups b. Re-
publican enthusiasts held them
up for hours at the time.

Unusual Race Of wild (;.,s.

an UNUSUAL race of wild geese is
sala to exist in British. Columbia
and southeastern Alaska. They are
known locally as white checked
geese and resemble the well-known
Canada goose in many respects, be-
ing approximately the same size
out much darker in plur1age. They
also differ from other goose spe-
cles IN that they are reluctant to
migrate south in the fall and many
remain to spend their entire life in
the northern ranra.

A great deal has happened in
two years to alter the political
complexion. The News-Register
is firmly convinced Tuesdays
vote was a rebuke to the adj
ministration for its attitude to
the lawlesS wing of labor. The
Go and is sit down strikes were
80 contrary and menacing to real
Americanism. the people of the
nation did an about face when
the powers at Washington sat
by ard gave silent approval to
the outrages perpetuated by |
Lewis and his cohorts. Vide, the
Reputation of Governor Muir

Likewise the News-Register
believes the defat of Congress-
mar Robert l.. Ramsey in the
First district, the only Demo-
cratic representative in West
Virginia to be endorsed, was di-
rectly due to activities of the
National Labor Relations Board
in it's hearings of Weirton Steel
on charges Of discriminating
against union activities. The
conduct of this case was so
biased an unfair it brought
about a revulsion of feelings a
mong the voters of both parties

the state Mr.. Ramsey is the vic
tim of this gross discrimination
by the government rather than

cratic senator's in the upper
house at Charleston and four
delegates in the lower house
only the hold-over senator will
be the sole Representative from
this district at the rext session
of the legislature.
While the defeat Of a capable
, legislator such as Senator Carl
r Gibraith is to be deplorcd, a
strong minority in the state
legislature will be highly brnef-
cial. The Republican opposi-
ton il the 1887 legislature was
so synthetic, it was negligible in

left q cumbersome Democratic
majority to run tho entire sus-

A Blessing in Disguise

1t is interesting to note the
reaction of the Democrats and
he Democratic press to the re-
suit of last weeks election.
fSome profess to see to see 1t
Democratic victory, and en-
phasize the Importance of hav-
ing carried New York state, ig-
noring the upset in Pennsylvania
and Ohio and many other states.
That sounds to us like whistling
to keep up courage while pass
ing through a graveyard.
1t seems to us a sensible view
of the situation is taken by the
Wheeling News-Register, an in
dependent Democratic newspaper
of wide circulation and influence
in the northern part of the state.
Uder the caption, "A Blessing
In Disguise" the News-Register
prints an editorial in which it
welcomes aggressive Republican
opposition and forsees a return
to amer legislation with subse-
q6ent retoration Of confidence
throughout the nation.
The editorial from the News
Register undoubtedly expresses
the view of very large part of
the independent element of
Demomocrats, not only in it's
section, but throughout the
state.
The editorial from this indie
pendent Democratic newspaper
is as followa:
Republican gains in Tuesdays
off-year election, should urove
a blessing in disguise to the
Democratic party. T h e result
will go a long way to solidify
the ranks of a party whose
Strength was so topheavy it was
in imminent danger of rending
itself.
Recspture of many Republi-
can seats in congress will APP
pease cXirrg need for more
formidable minority. A verile
opposition will lead to sanel
line for legislation. This in
turn will restore the lost con
fidence big business has beer
telings us so much about. Not
Only is the Republican gain q
Democratic stimulant, but &
benefit to the entire nation.
Tuesdays turnover, while TIC
cataclysm by the widest stretch
of the imagination was as
stunning to Republicans as it
was to the Democrats but not in
the same place. No ge election
Gain foreshadowed the decided
trend toward Republican ranks.
In Ohio county COP aherarts
hoped for little more than a
shrinkage in Democratic major
tiles piled up in 1886 and per-
haps the salvagirg of the cir
cult court clerkship. The upset
was as universally surprising as
was the defeat of the university
of Pittsburgh football team last
week.
The latest roundup indicates
Republicans gained 70 seats in
the House Of Representatives
and eight in the Senate. Our Dor
der states of Ohio ard Pennsyl-
vania switched Republican. N.
York retained Governor Let
man and Senator Wagner. but
with reduced majorities. The
assembly at Albany changed
hands and is now Republican.

UNION FOR $4,000

Duluth, MINI. (AFLWNS) Tim
Der and Sawmill Workers Union No.
2776, an A. f. of l.. affiAate, brought
suit here against the G. |. o. Timber
Workers Union to recover the A. f.
of L. unions property which it is al
legged the G. |. O. outfit appropriated
year ago. Judge Mark Nolan or
dered a hearing for q temporary re-
straining order prohibiting the G. |. o.
group from disposing Of the property
pending final action in the case.
The complaint seeks return of the
property or its value, which is placed
at $4,000, plus $4,000 damages for
its retention and another $4,000 for
its use during the year.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
the G. l. O. group took unlawful pos
session of the property because the
constitution and bylaws of the unior
and its international, the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and join
ers, provides that local cannot with
draw from the brotherhood or dissolve
so long as 10 members in good stand
ing object. The complaint declares
that more than 10 members objected
to the dissolution of the A. r. Of l.
union and "do now object and have
never withdrawn from Local 2776."

Swarm Handler Gets
'sBit by Bee"

A swarm Of bees settled on the
upper wall OF the King block yes
terday and the local apiarist was
called to take care of them before
they got inside the walls. The COM
mon report Is that bees won't sting
If they are properly handled, but
Mr.. Terril will tell you that some
Of 'em probably don't know about
that, for he quite frequently gets q
jat.
The secret Of taking care Of q bee
sting, however, is one that every
one should know. Instead Of pull.
ing q bee away after he has stung
the proper procedure is to push,
hard. across the sting, removing the
bee and most of the poison In the
action.
Mr.. Terrill took q hive up on the
shed roof and scooped handfuls Of
the bees off the walls and dumped
EN- into the container. In the pro-
cess one Of the buyers Lit on his
chin and spectators noticed the
hard rub the bee man used IN
brushing It off.
