kind or attempts to form them are
as old as the history of trade. l do
not deny that a trust such as the
Standard Oil or the whisky trust
might arise in any country under
the same conditions, tariff or no
tariff. But such combinations as
our trusts in the prime necessaries
of life, in food and clothing, which
are produced by no one people, but
freely in many countries, can be
formed only in country that SUR
rounds its producers with wall Ct
protecting duties against supplies
from without. The impracticability
of forming an international combi-
nation among producers of an arti-
Gle found in many countries is shown
by the collapse of the recent copper
pool, carrying with it the second
strongest bank in France, but, as |
suspect, not affecting the power of
the owners of the great Michigan
copper mines to continue exacting
from American consumers the ex-
cessive prices made possible by the
high tariff rates they secured from
Congress over the vote of Andrew
jackson. The recent movement of
the paper manufacturers in England
to form ring" was met by pub
fishers with the threat that they
would get their paper from other
countries if their own mills attempt
ed to combine to squeeze them. As
the government does not shut off
the outside supply it is clear that
consumers were in no danger of hav-
ing to pay monopoly prices.

Ohio Sets the Pace.

How the echoes of it ring repeated
ly in ones ears! The shot fired at
Dayton seems to have been heard
around the world, and its reverbera-
tions come home with almost deafen-
ing force. State answers to State,
from mountain to mountain leaps
the swift response; even the plains
laugh in concord. And the one
voice is, "Ohio has set the pace for
the Democratic party" Perhaps
this is not quite true, but it is true
that Ohio, as often before, has at a
critical time made it more wildly
manifest to the whole land that the
Democratic party is the party of the
people. Its glorous utterance comes
when it is most needed. New York
will follow in September, and all the
States will wheel swiftly into line.
Note the responses that come by mail
and telegraph. Their common bur
den is that the people will triumph
and that with Ohio will rest the
chief portion of the honor. All! who
cares for particular praise, if only
there be occasion for it? While the
United States is rejoicing over Ohio
let it turn in and help her to win the
fierce battle that impends.-Cincin

MoRGANTowN VIRGINIA. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER A.

in the case of every vote contested if
it had been possible. They had
time, if they so desired, to put every
one Of these challenged voters on the
stand and take his deposition, but
they did not lift hand or move a
muscle towards doing this. OF all
the voters challenged by Judge
Fleming in Mercer county, not one
has made a deposition which General
COTS attorneys have dared to place
before the committee. No defense
is made for them. AS far as the
dispositions before the committee
show, there is no pretense, even, that
these votes were honest In nearly
every other case of contested Repub-
lican votes in the State attorneys
for the Republican candidates took
evidence to show that the votes were
legal. In these cases they are
strangely silent.
SPIRITED THE REPEATERs AWAY.
One season of the silence is appar-
ent. A judicial investigation of the
frauds in Mercer county was under.
taken shortly after the election. 1t
was proven that great number of
negroes who were residents of Vir-
ginia had voted at Mill creek, Sim
mons creek and other precincts. In
dictments were returned and in the
next few days there was a general
exodus of colored gentlement from
West Virginia into some safer cline.
The border between the States was
kept dark by illegal voters who were
hustling to get out of harms way.
They went and the place that knew
them once now know them no more.
1t would not be difficult for Gen.
COTS attorneys, however, to collect
convincing proof of the legality of
those votes if there was any such
proof. The absence of any evidence
whatever in this line is the best con
fession of moral guilt.
JUDGE FLEMING's PROOF.
The burden OF proof, of course, as
the law requires, has lain upon the
shoulders of the Democratic contes-
tant. The enforced absence Of those
illegal voters has hampered Judge
Jennings attorneys in their efforts
to make a complete and overwhelm-
ing case. Proof could not be collect
ed in dozens of instances wherein
every intelligent man was satisfied
that the vote was illegal, but more
than enough proof is now before the
committee to establish the fact that
hundreds of illegal votes were cast
in these two counties. 1t justifies
every charge made by the Democratic
leaders. and proves the justice of
Judge Jennings claim to the gaber-

The Proposed Federal Election Law.

The more radical of the Republi-
cans have on the stocks scheme to
take away from the States all con-
troll and direction of the COMPRESSION
al elections, and of course this will
include the presidential election and
most of the State elections, and place
them under Federal control, with
authority vested in the president
that will give him and his party ex
traordinary advantages in perpetu
ating their power For a century
the control of these elections has
rested with the States, with such
safeguards in the way of supervisors
as congress has deemed proper.
Senator Sherman, in the last con-
gress, introduced bill which it is
probable the Republican plotters,
after an indefinite lease of power,
will seek to make law. This bill
authorizes the president to appoint
in each congressional district three
voters as an electoral board, all to
hold office during good behavior
in other words, for life-subject to
impeachment for misdemeanor. The
electoral board of each congressional
district is to appoint registrar and
three judges for each election dis
trict or precinct, and to increase the
number of voting precincts, whenever
deemed necessary to secure free
and fair ballot; these officials to hold
Office for six years, subject to remov-
al for misconduct. These Federal
officials are to register the voters,
count the ballots, correct Irregular
ties and declare what ever results
seem to them best. This takes away
from the officials appointed or elect
ed under State laws all authority
over elections, and places it in the
hands of Federal officials, over whom
the States will have no authority
whatever
Let us look at the army of new
Federal officeholders that this scheme
would create to be appointed by par
tisan authority and for partisan
ends. The electoral board Of three

Tanners Grievous Offending.

Congressman Flood of the Elmira
district has gone to Washington
with the avowed determination of
securing the removal of Pension
Commissioner Tanner. A few days
ago such effort would have been
hopeless, but the disgraceful exhibit
ton made by the official demagogue
at the Milwaukee Grand Encamp-
ment has changed the prospect.
While there is some disagreement
as to the exact language used by
Tanner in reference to the widows
of soldiers, there is no difference
among his audience as to the fact
that his address was of so coarse a
character that he was forced to stop
talking. 1t is scarcely credible that
the President of the United States
will continue to sustain by his spe-
cial favor man who has thus Of
Tended against the proprieties of
life and the spirit of patriotism, in
sulting the widows of our soldiers in
the presence of the comrades of their
husbands.
The charges against Tanner press
ed by Congressman Flood and 9th
ers will not relate merely to personal
demeanor. They will be based upon
the allegation that his official con-
duct has been without due regard
for law or the economical admins
tration of the Government.
Representative Flood is prepared
to support the specific charges he
will prefer by evidence concerning
cases in his own locality.

sional district. Estimating an aver
age of 300 voters to the election pre-
cincts of the Union, we have in round
numbers $4,000 election districts,
calling for the enormous aggregate
of 152, 900 Federal officers to perform
duties now satisfactorily performed
by State authority. This vast army
would draw the breath Of its official
and political life from the bosses and
managers Of the political parties.
President Harrison, for instance,
would see that the Quays, Mahones,
Platts, and their confreres, North and
South, had charge of the election
machinery in every district of the
Union. This army of election Off
GERS would be well paid and at a very
moderate calculation their salaries
and expenses would not fall far be-
low two millions of dollars for every
election.
There need be no argument as to
the advantage of snch horde of
well-paid and alert agents to the par
ty in Office. Add to 1.-THE plutocrat-
ic power invoked to aid Harrison,
and which is in the infancy Of posi-
BILE development, and combine of
money and official power would be
created that would make it impossi-
BILE for the American people, by
methods little short of revolution,
to drive from Office and power the
corrupt and odious political organi-
cation bent on welding the weapons

in their hands.

The Best Advertising.

The most efficient advertising in
behalf Of Hoods Sarsaparilla is that
which comes from the medicine itself.
That is, those who are cured by it,
speak to friends suffering similarly,
who in turn derive benefit and urge
others to try this successful medi-
cine. Thus the circle of its popu-
larity is rapidly widening from this
cause alone, and more and more are
becoming enthusiastic in behalf OF
Hoods Sarsaparilla as it actually
demonstrates its absolute merit. All
that is asked for Hoods Sarsaparilla
is that it be given fair trial. II

building up medicine, try Hoods

Finding the Merrimac.

The wreck of the famous clipper ship
Merrimac, which went down on the New
jersey coast twenty-one years ago, was dis
covered last week near Townsend's Inlet
by the Somers Point wreckers, after years
of search and the expenditure of large
sums of money by many different compa-
MES and private individuals. The Merri-
mac was one of the old-time liners and
cleared from Liverpool on March, 1867. for
Philadelphia, consigned to Peter Wright
& Son, with cargo that was at that day
considered of great value.
1t is said that the Merrimac and the
Westmoreland, another Philadelphia clip
per, and both known as the North Allan
tic greyhounds, were crossing The ocean at
speed that would have done credit to a

Cholera in Drinking Water.

Chief Engineer F. G. Mexican, O. S. n,
reports that until the last year cholera APP
peared regularly on the Takashima Island.
Japan, and made great ravages. During
ten DAYS of 1885 nine hundred persons
died of the disease. 1t was suspected that
the germs were in the water brought from
the mainland for drinking purposes, and
hence the distillers were put in operation,
and stringent orders issued that the water
from the mainland was only to be used for
washing purposes. Last year there were
no cases of cholera on Takashima, though
it ragged on the neighboring islands, and
the immunity is affirmed to be due to the
purity of the drinking water.-E1chdnge.
