STURM, of West Mlltord. FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1916. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad ' Company announces thai it intends to promote safety at railroad crossings. There are several places in anil i about Clarksburg which extend strong invitations. , The Democratic newspapers of the Etate hoped there would he a big row at Huntington hut there was not. Governor Hatfield was given an ovation and even some of the Democratic papers are forced to admit that the convention was harmonious. The greatest of the your?-the I. II., , i publican state contcmum I ington. There is no discountiug (act. It means that the Republic.. party in the state sees triumph ahead. If the editor of the Fairmont Times and his Clarksburg imitator had attended jibe Huntington convention. they would have readily decided that there is a very live Hepublican party in this stale, and in comparison a very dead Democratic party in West Virginia. Hughes charges the Wilson adiuin? inslration with many sins anil he proves his charges in every Instance., Even denials by cabinet members are shown by Mr. Hughes to be lalse. ! Hughes is the greatest campaigner, J as the Democrats have found out, tiecountry has hud in the memory of j the present generation. If the Telegram remembers correctly, it read something the otherday about a divorce suit having been filed against the chairman of the Democratic state committee- a man; named Lewis. He would do the state more service by telling state editors why the divorce than in telling Iheui why they should support Cornwcll lor governor. Lei's have the reason. Even Candidal- Hughes has Bryan on the run. The latt'-r has iound it necessary to ' i.utt in" In -the former's campaign Ly sending wire messages to new.-papers. Why does j \. the man who help- ! di.-trace the v United States not take the stump, meet Hughes face to 'an- and discuss the issues of the en- palgnV It is i dollars to doughnu--. t: - discredited leader or toe old uonK<-y is urud to meet the great At erica who Is; sow so successfully touring the West. ^he farmers of the county are holding their first annual picnic to- j day. It is proving a good success. Harrison county farmers aie progressive and the}' have no trouble in making things successful after having fully made up their minds to so. it is also gratifying to see the i THJfCEAl spirit of co-operation manifest on the part of the citizens of the city. It means still better relations between county and city and should result in a more thorough belief that what helps the one aids the other. City and county are growing great together and the time Is at hand when they are to feel themselves one and the same. The Telegram Is ry it rained; Wheal over l ite Feet Illgli. Wheat over live feet in height and ! yielding around thirty-five bushels per; acre was harvested ihls year by I. D. Smith, of Hamburg. I'a., in territory where, during the last few years, lire Hessian fly has been very destructive. Mr. Smith last fall tried out the methods advocated by the United States Department of Agriculture, In Farm-1 ers' Hullotln (MO to combat the ravages of the fly. .Urto sowing and an appll canon or rertiIizcr to give me crop the vigorous growth necessary to withstand the attacks of the |c :-t. are the methods advocated and tin; rcsu If s show their Kinross. Mr. Smith purchased his farm two years ago in a run down condition and has heen building it up with good fanning methods. Ih- Ordinarily Cant inns. That is Hie advice which Charles Evans Hughes gave to protectionists yesterday when, at Grand Forks, N. 1)., he told an audience made up largely of farmers: "I believe in trusting those who really accept the doctrines of protection with Its enforcement. And ' believe in protection for tint fanners 1 just as I believe in protection for the nun in the factories. The Republicsn presidential nominee was warning protectionists against tie- folly of putting conlidence in Democratic profetwions of conversion to the protective principles. . says the Pittsburg Gazette Times. Mr. Wilson and his party! have held out the light too recently., i And all their statements and acts 1 compel the belief they are waving .i false beacon to lure protectionists into their camp for plucking. Vou would not entrust your purse I to a known thief upon his mere word j that he had been converted and1 would lead an honest life. Then! don't let the Democrats fool you into' believing they have abandoned free I trade. They have not. Mr. Hughes is the man to vote for ff you WOllId have nrnn-i riKlnmii- nr#?. taction and personal prosperity. As to Civil Service. Rivaling in asininity tho ridiculous denials made by the adniinistration respecting the enforced removal <>f Myjon T. Merrick from he post of ambassador to Prance is the telegram Bent to .Mr. Hughes denying the political removal of Director of the Census Durand and the replacement of j [). II. Limum as head of the coast survey, says the Rarkorsbun; State Journal. Tt is tho claim of the ad-1 ministration mouthpieces responsible for the telegram-?if indeed Mr. Redfield can ever be accounted responsible for anything?that the Kcpubli-j cans who wore displaced retired voluntarily and that tho appointment of their successors was not political. I This claim is now given the lie l?y the best possible witnesses. .Mr. Hughes did not of course refer to the cases as themselves constituting serious offenses beyond tho general practice of this administration, or to lie unduly emphasized. They were referred to us typical of the Wilson attitude toward the public* service. Officers who served under Republicans were removed without much ado and Democrats?wherever possible southern Democrats?were named in their stead. 1 j The denial that there was anything ] political in this state of nffnirw do- ) serves as much credcnco as ilio silly ) story that Mr. Herrick retired voluntnrilv from the post of ambassador toil France, when as a matter of fact his' successor had already been appointed' from the ranks of "deservins Dome-1 < erats" and had been confirmed by the i Democratic Senate. I The president has a cousin some- t where in Pennsylvania who has come forward with an affidavit in defense < of his "White House relative in which < he,says ilifit he talked with Mr. Her- 1 rick in Paris, urging him to stay in; the diplomatic service, but. that Air. ? Herrick was determined to return to < the states. j, "What Mr. Ilerrick's intentions were after political action for his doposal had hern taken was neither here nor ? there. What were Mr. Wilson's inten- 1 tions is more to the point and they ' were made quite plain by the immediate nomination of an Ohio Democrat. The Pennsylvania cousin may have urged Air. Herrick to remain as he says he did. hut there is no evidence that be spoke with the authority of the "White House and his testimony, I therefore, is irrelevant. Put neither the Herrick case nor the Durand case is necessary to establish the fact that the Wilson administra- 1 tion has prostituted the public ser-j vice to pifvate spoils. .Mr. Flryan . | West Vlrg. MOUNDSVIHLE: Samuel W. Cun- 1 ninghant, member of the Marshall county hoard of equalization auu view, and formerly deputy sheriff, has entered a slander suit for i-l".000 damages against William G.

In which John Brown and his followers were imprisoned, at: lESEUKG DAILY TELEC Cocoanut Oil Fine t For Waghing Hair It you want to keep your hair in-good condition be careful what you wash it with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain loo much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Just plain muisified cocoanut oil* (which is pure and entirely greaseless). is much better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can u e for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with .water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get muisified cocoanut oil at most any drug store, ft is very cheap, find a few ounces enough to last everyone in the family for months. clearly stated the administration's attitude in a letter. It was not the administration's Idea that public positions contemplated public service hut that tlioy constituted places "with which to reward deserving Dei no The State Journal recently exposed a striking instance of this sort of tiling in this county. The administration did not care to know whether or not Miss Myrtle McMurray satisfied with her service flic patrons of the Washington postoflicp. To that the administration was indifferent to the point of impatience. It was a question whether or not she could get the endorsement of the Wood county hoss. Sho could not get that endorsement and she could not retain the Job. A telegram from Hurlcson upon this subject would lie interesting. f THE DAILY] [ NOVELET J A I'ltlUM) or THE IXM STUV.
