MARKHAM AND THE MINERS.
Morrow Men Are After the Los Angeles

Morrow Men Are After the Los Angeles
Candidates Scalp.
Now that the primaries are over the Re-
publican politicians have relapsed into
state of comparative Quietude and seem to
be enjoying brief breathing spell prepara-
tory TO making a final struggle at Sacra-
mento on the 18th of August The Mark
ham headquarters were deserted yesterday,
and Judge Carpenter, who has been acting
as clief boomer, quietly packed his grip
yesterday morning and headed for Los
Angeles. He will remain south of Teha-
chapi until the meeting of the convention
ills fellow-workers for the time being have
subsidized and are doing but little talking
In the meantime, however, ;MOrrow's sup
porters are to the fore again and are work
ing tooth and toe-nail to overcome the tenn
porary advantage obtained by the fol-
lowers of the man from Los Angeles. They
are making AN aggressive fight and are
hunting up the records. so as to pitch into
Markham on number OF old scores. They
have unearthed an old boomerang in the
shape of vote cast by the southern candi-
date while a member of Congress from the
Sixth District, and are urging it as an argu-
ment against mis- nomination.
1t is probably the best weapon they have
yet secured, and may prove effective in Ger
tain directions. IL seems that while in the
House Of Representatives at Washington
Markham introduced bill approprating
$4,000 to prosecute the hydl aulic miners
and it was by his efforts that it was passed
by the lower House. Senator Hearst sue
ceeded in killing il in the Senate, but
Markham was not to be Outd0ne so easily,
and introduced second bill, which failed
also Of passage. His opponents are busily
engaged in spreading the fact among the
delegates to the State Convention. and are
fla mir OF lao Tina that with this
against him he could not. if nominated,
carry single one Of the mining counties
OF the State.
On the contrary they predict that he
would be mercilessly slaughtered By the
mining men. and would find it difficult 10
be elected in the face of this. The Morrow
men are also reyiving the old question of
state division, and are endeayoring to show
that not only Markham but the entire
south favoTS the idea. The fact is recalled
that Congressman Vsndeyer introduced
bill at the present session of Congress TO

Among the many pension claims
pending before Congress, there is
none more meritorious than that of
West Virginia's veteran editor
'.Nelse" Hoffman, of Morgantown.
He was q soldier of two wars, and
gave cheerfully of his best blood for
his country's cause. For years he
held high place in West Virginia
journalism, but disease claimed him.
The bright mind is now dimaned,
and the strong hands are palsied,
1t is travesty on public justice
that heroes like Hoffman should
plead for pittance, while fat fed
bounty jumpers crowd the pension

Among the many other new
things in contemplation in West
Virginia is a new county. The pro-
posed new county is to embrace all
the territory lying on both sides of
the Knawha river between the
mouth of Lens Greek, in Kanawha
county, and Kanawha Falls, in Fay
cite. 1t is understood there is a
strong popular sentiment at the
mines in favor of the formation of
the new county, but the business
men generally are said to oppose it.
Notices have been posted in various
places in that region asking all who
are willing to contribute to asfhnd
to aid in the formation Of the new
county. to meet at East Bank at an
early date.

DEATH OF THOMAS WATKINS
Thom@s. Watkins, for, many years
postmaster. at Mason City, and a
familiar figure on the streets of
Pomeroy, was buried at the Adams
vile Cemetery at Mason Sunday af-
ternoon. About two years ago Mr..
Watkins lost his wife, and later his
property. at Mason was DESTROYED
by fire. After that he went to live
with his son James, at Columbus,

months, having been born in Eng
land June 1S, 1919. The deceased
leaves two children, James, of Co.
lumbus and Alexander, of Cincinua-
ii, and some step children, one of
whom is Donald Mcdonald, of this

ceased was born in England and
came to Coalport in 1851. and re-
moved to Mason about the year

Returning Reason on the Tar
1T 0uesffOrl

The Increasing restiveness of
some of the Republican newspapers
under the intolerable burdens of the
present tariff is one of the encourag.
ing symptoms of the movement for
tariff reform The effort to force
the Mckinley sshigh. protection bill
through Congress will, in all proba-i
biiity, if persisted in. produce a
really serious split in the party
The proposal, originating in protec-
ZIONIST circles, for reciprocity with
Mexico and some of the South
American republics is a practical
evidence of how the farmers are be-
ing fleeced, for il shows that the
manufacturers can afford to take
prices from their expected foreign
customers which they refuse to ac-
seept from their own countrymen on
the plea that American labor would
suffer a decrease of wages. There
is not o particle of sentiment in this
matter. The manufacturer uses the
workingman's supposed interests
merely as an excuse for special leg
islatiOn which fills his pockets at
VIZ SAPShSV Va buC SICib DOul vi
consumers, especially the farmers,
and he sells his goods cheap where
he cannot Sell them dear. So of the
"home market" humbug, which has
been used so effectually to delude
the farmer with the idea that the
building up ofindustries by means
of a high tariff would create an in
creased demand for his products.
There is no longer any room for
doubt, for every farmer must ask
himself how it happens, it the
high tariff provides him with
better market, that after nearly a
generation of protection for al
most every conceivable industry
the farmers condition to- day is
far worse than it ever was before
the war? The truth is what the
farmer needs is not only cheaper
clothes and cheaper tools, but more
extended market, and this can never
be secured unless We break down
the Chinese wall that surrounds us
and enter into friendly relations
with foreign countries, Farmers
all over the country are staggering
untlera tremendous load of debt,
and even the most hide bound pro
tectionists are beginning to see that
something must done for their re-
lief.-BdltiROre Sun.

Another great benefit to the State
has just resulted from the action OF
Governor Wilson during his admin
istration. The Supreme Court of
the United States has decided in the
case of the County Court of Up
shur, that the United State Courts
have no jurisdiction to interfere
withsthe State authorities in the as
sessment of property and collection
of taxes, and that the same is under
the exclusive control of the State
authorities.
Several years ago, Benjamin Ricn,
a nonresident, applied to the Coun-
ty Court of Upshur to be relieved
from what he claimed to be an erro-
neous assessment, both in quantity
and value of real estate in Upshur.
The County Court refused to change
the assessment. Rich then applied
to the United States District Court
and the Court entered an order in
his favor. Governor Wilson consid-
cred this matter of State importance.
and after consultation with Attor-
ney General Caldwell, who entirely
agreed with him, directed an appeal
to the Supreme Court of the United
States, and employed Judge John
Brannon to assist the Attorney Gen
eral. This decision is of great
Importance to the State, and vindi-
Gates its right to. control its own af-
fairs. concerning the collection of
its reyenues.-Kapacha Gazette.
