WEST VIRGINIA DOUBTFUL.

The Cincinnati Inquirer recently
printed an alleged interview with
Mr.. Camden, the substance of which
was, that the Democratic position on
the tariff would probably cause West
Virginia to 90 Republican. We have
not heard directly from Mr. Camden,
but he is reported to US to have said,
since the date of this alleged inter
view,-"the State is doubtful be-
cause so many of our mechanics and
miners are still under a delusion
that they are benefited by tariff
for protection" We do not believe
what was in the Inquirer, and We
do believe the report made to us.
West Virginia is doubtful, and
for precisely the reason given. For
twenty years the party in this State
has been dominated by a coalition
between pronounced Frotectionists
and timid, time serving truckers to
the money power. Up to this day
there has been no organized effort to
expose to the masses that the pre-
sent tariff is simply scheme to rob
them. Until the DEMOCRAT was es-
tablished, scarcely any paper in this
State attempted an intelligent dis
cussion of the subject. If we ex-
cept a few speeches, by such men as
Davis of Harrison, Harris, Lucas
and John BrannOn, the sound, clear
cut doctrine was not preached in
this State until these columns were
opened to the public. Those who
have read what we printed, under
: stand the matter, and we may safely
say that no one, who understands it,
will knowingly vote for protection
ist;-unless actuated by a selfish
motive which is not shared by the
body of the people.
But unfortunately this paper has
not been generally read by mechan-
les and miners. As a rule they do
not read much on public ques-
tions, and are apt to vote as their
employers tell them to vote; and
these employers pocket the profit of

PROTECTED COAL AND UNPRO.
TECTED MINERS.
PHILADELPHIA Herald.

If the high-tariff shriekers, whose
hearts run out in tears for the poor
" paid miners of the Old World,
would turn their eyes toward the
Pennsylvania coal and iron fields
they would find there probably as
much, if not more, misery than can
be discovered among the miners of
the Old World. This superabund-
ance of lobor and the crowded state
of the Old World is some excuse for
the condition of affairs in that coun-
try. But in the anthracite region
of Pennsylvania there is no excuse
except the greed of corporations and
the fostering spirit of monopoly.
The anthracite section of Pennsyl-
vania is not large in extent, and yet
it supplies the entire country with
hard coal. The tariff shuts out
competition from Canada and the
Old World, and the price at which
this fuel is sold allows large profits
to all engaged in the business. But
the poor miner, whose life is one of
constant drudgery and who faces
death whenever he enters the mines,
works for mere pittance and then
is robbed of that by having to deal
at company stores and live in such
habitations as his employers choose
to provide and to pay whatever rent
they insist upon demanding.

To the Editor of the New York Times:
An examination Of 81 leading Re-
publican newspapers of yesterdays
issue shows TIA articles, counting
great and small, in support of the
following positions:
l. OF employing Il great army of
Office holders to collect money, and
then return it to the people from
whom they collect'it.
3. To prove that the way to in
duce other countries to purchase our
goods and thus extend our manufac
turing interests is to compel those
goods to cost twice AS much as they
can be purchased for elsewhere.
8. That the way to enrich ma
ton is to limit its exports, as far as
legislation can do it, to raw pro-
ducts, which represent the fertility
of the soil and the inheritance of
our children.
A. That if you will enable men to
buy quart of WHISKY with the
money that it now takes for pint
they will not drink so much.
There are great many of US who
prefer to look at things plainly, and
who believe that men who devote
their chief energy to persuading
people to believe these manifest i'm
possibilities are not interested either
in truth or the country, but in per-
petuating their reign at the public
expense.

REPORT ON STATE DEVELOP
MENT.
BY the Tax Commission
Continued from last issue.)
TO OBTAIN PURELY PUBLIC
LEGISLATION.

Continued from last issue.)
DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN PURELY PUBLIC
LEGISLATION.
In this connection we call atten-
tion to matter which is not suffi-
GENTLY appreciated. Those who have
had experience with Legislatures
have observed that purely public
business seldom receives as intelli-
gent and diligent attention as is Civ
en- 10 such subjects as specially con-
Germ some local enterprise or private
interest, and the reason is this:
When q local or private enterprise is
to be advanced member may in
crease his popularity with his imme
diate constituency by exhibiting
zeal in its behalf; but where the
measure affects equally all parts of
the State, viz: where a measure is
purely public, it seldom happens
that any one gives to it special atten-
ton unless there is pressing pop
ular demand for some specific legis-
: lation.
Hence such publications as we
propose will be Of great utility, be
cause they will creaUe popular de-
mand for that character of legisla-
ton which is purely public and
which contemplates only the welfare
of the entire community.
These publications will also serve
another and still more important pur-
pose. AT present it seldom happens
that any member of the Legislature
has a sufficient acquaintance with
the necessities Of his State to form
ulate proper legislation, and while
conscious of his lack of information,
he is also conscious that he has
neither the time nor opportunity to
make the necessary investigation
hence he abstains from taking mi
tiatory steps, whereas, such publica-
tions as are here suggested. would
furnish to members of the Legisla-
ture the very information which is
necessary to enable them to act with
intelligence and decision.
Again: If there be an officer
whose duty it is to make these pub
locations the Legislature will soon
find it convenient and of great prac-
teal value to order him, from time
to time, to investigate, collect the
facts and report upon those subjects
which the members do not feel them
selves qualified Tor lack the time
to deal with, unless and until such
subjects have been specially examin-
ed.
This officer, be it observed, would
gather suggestions from all quarters,
and since his mind would be con-
stantly occupied with matters of
public and general Importance, he
would soon acquire an extensive
knowledge about the necessities of
his State and would soon acquire a
facility for making Investigations
which is not now possessed by any
citizen.
The value Of such an officer to the
State is sufficiently apparent with
out further comment, and it is evil
dent that his usefulness will in
crease as he becomes experienced in
the duties of his employment.
