POLITICAL NOTES.

The bosses seem to have started
down hill ON the toe Of the public
boot.-Philadelphia Times.
Grants pay on the retired list will
be S13,500 year. There are sever
al presidential candidates who
couldn't be put out of the way for
twice those figures.
Grant upon the retired-l list of the
army, and Conkling upon the Su-
preme Bench-is this clearing the
way for Mr.. Arthur in 1884 p Baiti-
more american.
The Bourbons are going to ger
rymander the Congressional Dis
tricts with hope of making all of
them Democratic, and the result
will be two of them will be carried
by the RepnblicaDs.-State Tribune.
Democratic aspirants for Senator
Davis old shoes are as thick as au-
tumnal leaves that strew the brooks
in Vallambrosa. Many are called
but few are chosen. 1t is not alto
gether unreasonable for us to serve
this timely notice upon them to the
effect that they might all get left
State Tribune.
Gov. Jackson, with a true Bourbon
accuracy, tells us that the State
doesn't owe a dollar. Furguson, of
kanawha county, of the same school
of politics, says the State owes 1927
600 to the school fund and $4,000
to the banks. Both gentlemen are
of extreme Bour-
bonism, and the question of fact is
left to the intelligent reader.-Hunt-
iagto'a Commercial.
A spirit of fairness would prob
ably suggest that a party which
casts $4,000 of the 100000 votes in
the State should have one of the
four Congressional districts in the
State, and that would be the result
if they were formed as the law con-
templates-of contiguous territory.
But even if this is not done, we fail
to see the necessity of running a dis
trict across the State in the interest
of some Congressional candidate.
The "gerrymandering" business is
always losing one to the party
practising it-and it will be in this
case Ne,c Martinspille Messenger.

The record Of Judge Hoge as a
member Of the National Legislature
is not one to be regretted either by
himself or his friends. In respect
to all the essential qualifications OF
an able, conscientious and fearless
representative of his people, Judge
Hoge has shown himself to be in a
high degree fitted for the important
position he holds and an honor to
the men whose suffrages called him
to the legislative halls Of the nation.
If there were those who, at the be-
ginning Of his career, looked, and
perhaps hoped, for dissatisfaction as
the result of Judge Hoge's official
course, like the unwise virgins who
appeared at the wedding feast with
their lamps untitled, they are for
hidden a voice in the general appro-
baton called out by unfiinchlng
fidelity to sacred trust-forbldden
by the stern edict of their own con-
sciences to turn and laud him whom
SO lately they decried. Wise, active,
industrious, possessed of long ex-
perience in public life, with a care
fully cultivated and well-stored intel
lect and proved often to be strictly
loyal to that noblest virtue of a noble
man, honesty, Judge Hoge's eye is
ever turned toward the interest OF
his constituents. Indeed, the Second
District of West Virginia is repre-
scented at Washington by man in
whom the people may justly feel a
wondrous pride. May we be as for
tunate in the future. This is no paid
for puff it is simply an earnest, hon.
est tribute to deserved merit.-Bar-
bour Jefersonian.
The foregoing is just tribute to
the high character of Judge Hoge,
who is very popular with his party
and is esteemed by all who know him.
We are informed that the Demo
Gratis of Jefferson and Berkeley az
unanimous for his reelection.

what We Could Manufacture.
FURNITURE i Z

Furniture is something which can
be manufactured profitably in Mar
tinsburg. Hardwood furniture is be-
coming 4 leading article OF mannfac-
ture in number of cities and towns
east Of the Alleghanies, and the prof
its are very satisfactory to the in
vestors. But in every case that has
come under cur observation the cost
of the materials, especially walnut,
oak, and ash, is from twenty five to
fifty per cent. above what the sane
materials can be bought for in Mar
tinsburg. In other words,a hardwood
furniture manufacturer in this place
is assured in advance a fair profit
over other places in the cost OF his
lumber. AS to market, we see the
furniture from Chambersburg hauled
through our city every week on its
way to Washington and other mar
kets. Our outlet is complete in every
direction. A number of our citizens
will doubtless recognize these facts
at once but say that we haven't the
capital ; we must wait for parties from
abroad with ample means to come in
and start up this desirable enterprise.
This is simply folly. 1t doesn't take
a fortune to start this branch of man
ufacture; nor is it even desirable to
to begin with an immense outlay
Eight to ten thousand dollars would
be ample for handsome beginning,
and as for skilled labor, surely Mar
tinsburg would not need to go abroad
for cabinet makers. We have enough
here to man more than one large fac
tory.
BARREL SLAVES AND HEADINGS.
The extreme disturbances of this
industry for our city may be inferred
from few facts. LIST. The supply
of oak timber suitable for the best
s s.sves is practically inexhaustible
ant, very cheap. rvery ..armer IS
splitting it up for fence rams year
after year. I'd. This whole valley
and all the wheat belt south and east
of us is now drawing upon the west
ern States for supply Of slaves,
greatly inferior to what our own tim
Der would make, and paying from
s75 to 500 per car freight, over and
above paying good prices for the
slaves. Does it need any further ar
gument to prove that Martinsburg is
thevery best place in the country for
this branch of manufacture Why
Ellicots Mills or Richmond, either
mill take all the product of two or
three good machines at once if the
goods are well made.
There are several other branches
Of wood working equally attractive,
of which we may speak again.

coived the last rights of the church,
and expired early on Sunday morn
ing. He was learned man and an
able theologian. Born at Cheraw,
S. G., March 10th, 1917, he studied
under Bishop England, finished his
philosophy and theology in the Col
ledge OF the Propaganda, was ordain
ed in 1910, and succeeded Bishop
England in 1858. His funeral took
place on Wednesday, many prelates
being in attendance, among them
Archbishop Gibbons, Bishops Keane
and Kahn. The State Court adjourn

body and the city bells were tolled

The Philadelphia Press makes the
following pointed remarks in regard
to "party service" and they are well
applied to a class of political leaders
to be found in every party:
Republicans naturally and prop
erly desire party success wherever
that success is best for the party and
people. The appeal to party pride
and fealty is just and right within
reasonable limitations.
During twenty-five years of match
less history the glory and strength
Of Republication have consisted in
its fidelity to the principle and in it's
embodiment OF public conscience.
When the party is true to this high
standard every honest Republican
Gan heartily sustain it. When it
fAiia short, the highest service to Re-
!phhlicanism is an effort to restore it
to its true character.
president Hayes said that he
serves his party best who serves the
people best. The saying is eminently
true. Lasting strength rests upon
honest work and solid merit. The
Republican representative does most
for Republicanism who makes Repub.
.licanism mean honor, integrity and
Justice. And the Republican voter
promotes the best interests of the
party who teaches it the wholesome
lesson that it cannot maintain its
ascendancy unless it deserves to
maintain it.
"The worst possible service to the
Republican party is that which is
rendered by men who profess to
speak and actin it's name, and who
use it only to advance selfish ends
to plumber the people, and to bring
the 'hoR0red party standard into dis
repute. And the best service to the
party is that which redeems it from
this, destructive control and over
throws the false representatives
who prostitute it to their own base
ends.n 81
