Through The
Political Periscope
"Some talker," said a man In one
of the Cornwell audiences the other
day, as the Hampshire man rattled
along about his 1904 prophecies ot
gloom and despair, "but 'pears to me
he's Just a leetle behind the times,
alnt he?"
"Yes," said the man next, "but you
see he started out twelve years ago
and he's just getting 'round to the
young tellers again with the same old
stuff."
\
THE HAMPSHIRE PROPHET.
There was a man in our State?
A prophet dark and glum?
Who propheted in nineteen four
That if the corporations bore
Tnelr share of tax, no lesB, no more,
We'd all be on the bum,
And when he saw that he was beat.
With wondrous might and main,
He got himself a little boss.
He gare the coin another toss.
And now he's tryln' to put across,
The same old stuff again.
Cornwell's slip at Sissonville has
set the whole state to langbter. When
he said "If there is any men in this
audience who voted for Abe Lilly 1
warn you that they will attempt to get
you back into the party." That was
the first time the Kepublicans of the
state were aware of the Cornwall argument
that Democrats who had voted,
for Gory Hogg and David E.
French, in the Democratic primaries l
were now all in the Republican party.
If that isn't Cornwell's argument, his
presumption is the greater, for it implies
that "any" Republican who voted
i for Lilly is a Democrat now. while any :
i Democrat who voted for Hogg or 11
i French could not possibly be a Kepub-,
lican now. How the tens of thousands |:
of voters in the state who voted for ! j
Attorney General Lilly must Love that :
ego in the Hampshire Editor!
If Republicans were disposed to go !
into the houshold of the Democrats <
what a beauty of a running mate for i
Wilson would John J. Corn well make! !
Wilson's picture at the top of the pos- j
ter, and underneath tho likeness of the 1
President all that vast array of crit- i

Democratic primaries. Even if this>

the "original Wilson man" in
West Virginia, Cornwell's attacks on
the President would prove him beyond
a doubt the most 'original Wilson man
in West Virginia.
