Mr.. WHITES RECORD.

To-day after business hours at
Parkersburg, Collector of Inter-
nal Revenue A. B. White will
turn the Office over to his Demo-
cratic successor, Hon. Edwin M.
Gilkeson. In giving up the Of
flee which he has so ably filled
for four years, Mr.. White and
the Republicans of West Virgin
la, of whom he is a faithful rep
resentative, have the satisfaction
of knowing that he leaves be-
hind a record of which they may
well feel proud. The admins
tration of the office during Mr..
Whites incumbency has been
honest, capable and economical,
and those business methodswhich
have marked the conduct of the
internal revenue system of the
entire country under Commits
sioner John w. Mason, also a
West Virginian, have prevailed
in the West Virginia district.
Mr.. White hands over to his
successor the office in a No. l or
der, every thing up to date and
no uncollected taxes. This has
taken hard work and the collec-
tor and his efficient corps of De-
puties and clerks naturally take
pride in the result of their labors.
Notwithstanding the reduction
of % per cent. in the tobacco tax
two years ago and the striking
off of $500 special taxpayers in
the district by repeal of special
taxes (by the Mckinley bilD,
Mr.. White collected in the four
years nearly one million and thir-
ty thousand dollars more than
his predecessor did in the four
years preceding. This shows the
increase of business in the State,
the increase in collections, by
the way, being largely in the
city of Wheeling, owing to the
enormous growth of the tobacco
and cigar trade. 1t also shows
the efficiency of the service,
since the cost of collection has
been no greater (if not trifie
less than when less work was
done, while the per cent. of
cost of collection has been
largely reduced. The collections
in West Virginia during the four
years have been SO, 400, 1924, SO.
AS showing the efficiency of
the field force under Collector
White in line of work general
ly left to revenue agents and sell
dom undertaken by collectors,
there have been raids personally
organized by his deputies under
him at different times, resulting
in the capture and destruction of
twenty-four illicit stills complete
and eight sets of distillery ap-
paratus without stills. This
means a large amount of hard
and dangerous work. Wheeling

1t is good to have legislative
scape-goat to blame and denounce
for the financial DEPRESSION
mighty good for the 10 per cent,
statesmen to relieve their below
par feelings with. There is plen-
ty of money in Martinsburg-
banks are full of it,-but Sher-
man law or no Sherman law,
good investments are wanting
everywhere.

The Safeguard of the Nation.

The surrender of Mr.. Cleveland
to public opinion and the conse-
quent certainty that Congress
will meet early in August in
stead of in September have had
a reassuring effect. The bust
ness men of the country do not
trust the Democratic majority in
Congress. They know that its
preponderant elements are radi-
cally unsound on the tariff and
currency question /; that it is
largely made up of unprincipled
demagoguesa and "cheap" money
fanatics. 1t is the Republican
minority which forms the chief
reliance of every merchant, bank
er or manufacturer who hopes to
see business restored to some
thing like normal conditions.
For the repeal of the silver pur-
chase clauses of the Sherman
law the Administration must re-
ly on Republican votes. The Re-
publicans in Congress will form
a strong phalanx in support of
sound currency. They will stand
in the van of the battle. The ut
most that is expected of the con-
sentative section of the Demo-
Gratis is that they will rally
around the Republican standard
as auxiliaries and assistants.
The Press has already alluded
to the appeals to Republicans for
assistance that have been made
by Administration organs which
nine months ago were SANDER
ously assailing the Republican
party as an organization of rob-
bers. A leading Administration
newspaper declared yesterday
afternoon that, "now that Con-
gress is so soon to meet, the
friends of sound money, without
distinction of party, should de-
vote all their efforts toward Gre
ating public sentiment which
will tolerate no more fooling'
with our financial system. Dur
ing the late Presidential cam
paign Democratic newspapers as
sured the people that Democratic
success meant an immediate and
unprecedented increase in pros
perity, Now we find them beg
ging Republicans to undo the
disastrous results of Democracy's
triumph. They assume as a mat
ter of course that the Republi-
cans whom they have attacked
SO Indignantly will do all in their
power to protect the business and
credit of the nation and they
are right.
The Republican party will be
found, as it has always been
found, on the side of honest mon
ey and sound principles of gov
eminent, Its representatives in
Congress will serve their party
by serving Their country. What
ever is accomplished at the COM
ing session of Congress for the
restoration of public confidence
and the revival of business pros
perity will be accomplished by
the energy and patriotism of Re-
publicans. N. Y. Press.

If an Administration of pa
triotism and craftsmanship had
held the reins of power at Wash
ington since March 4, Republi-
can principles and American civ
ilizatiOn would to-day have been
planted at Honolulu so deeply
that they could never have been
uprooted. That shameful page
of American history on which is
recorded the traitorous hauling
down of the Stars and Stripes
and the skulking policy of in
trigue for restoration of an un-
speakably degraded barbarian
monarch would never have been
written. Americans would have
known on this one hundred and
seventeenth birthday of the ma
ton that new territory had been
added to the Republic far ex-
ceeding in value that far north
western domain whose annexa
ton is William H. Stewards
most enduring monument; the
enemies of this country and the
friends of despotism would have
been disappointed and humili-
ated; and the United States
would have made a magnificent
stride toward the commercial
dominion over the New World
which is hers by the right of fit
ness and inheritance.-N. Y.

Uncle Sam could regulate this
financial money speculation as
easy as rolling off of a log, if he
would only declare by law one
dollar as full value with every
other dollar of his own money.
1t makes no difference to the
people whether it is a gold dol
lar, silver dollar or greenback
dollar, if Uncle Sam puts his S
mark on it for it's full face value.
But money kings don't want it
that way.

When times were prosperous
and money plenty it was the
+" duty" of Democrats to run the
country down, tell people they
were oppressed, imposed upon,
cheated out of their honest
wages, cheated by high prices
and low wages, robbed "
"plundered," &c. Now when
these charges have come true it
is the "duty" according to the
political falsifier) of the Repub-
licans to help the Democrats out
of the ditch.

Eternal Vigilance

Is the price of health. But with all our
prccaution there are enemies always
lurking about our systems, only waiting
a favorable opportunity to assert them
selves. Impurities in the blood may be
hidden for years or even for generations
and suddenly break forth, undermining
health and fastening death. For all
diseases arising from impure bloodHood S
Sarsaparilla is the unequalled and unap
preached remedy. 1t is King of them

The Democratic papers are
still sweltering in the heat of

Now when wheat is down to

are giving the farmers cheap ad-

Ex-Speaker Crisp, Congress

of the repeal of the State bank

-Seaker Crisp was in Wash
