The demand of the times seems to
be for "vote getters." This is all
right, for the ability to catch the
votes is quite essential to an election,
but it sometimes looks as if the day
was not far distant when the most
successful vote getter will be the
candidate who is inclined to sit down
heavily on a present tendency to
shiftlessness and extravaganza in
town affairs which would not be
tolerated one hour in the conduct of
private business.

of $3.50 on each and every bucket

HIGH TARIFF
Hot Shot Fired at ProtecrfonisA
Pittsburg.

H1Ot SuOC E1reO at frOtSCt1On1SA
Pittsburg.
Atlanta Journal. &Aorr-
Hot shot is being fired at the Leo
tectiOnists from the most unexDec~
quarter. 1t comes from their OWN
citadel
We quoted a few days ago from an
editorial in which the Philadelphia
Ledger entered an indignant protest
against the scheme to restore the
tax on wool and declared that the
adoption of that policy would bring
down upon the Republican party de-
feat as crushing as that which befelI
1T at the first general election after
the enactment of the Mckinley
tariff
This attack upon the Republican
program by the leading Republican
newspaper in the metropolis Of the
strongest protectionist State of the
Union was significant, but not less
so is an editorial attack upon the
proposed increase of the duty on
steel rails which we find in the Pitts
burg Press, the paper having the
largest circulation in what may be
termed the capital of protection.
| In conclusion the Press SAYS:
NOW, as for the tariff phase of the
! steel situation, there is doubtless
something plausible to be said on
both sides, but against any mere
! argument that may be made, there
is to be placed the fact that our ex-
ports of steel to the English marnets
are assuming large proportions, and
there is reliable evidence for the
statement that Pittsburg manufac-
turers can sell rails for SIT at a very
| fair profit. On Feb. IL bessempr pig
was selling in Pittsburg at so 80;
in London $40 20 Rails in Pitts
burg we're $17; in London $22 30
How much of a tariff does PiUtsburg
need to protect it from London in
the home market? Who will honest
ly affirm that there is any longer any
need of the existing tariff, on rails, OF
81 81 toni"
1t will be seen that the Press not
only opposes an increase of the tariff
on steel rails but virtually demands
that they be put on the free list
How Webster's Wit Saved Him.
just imagine the immortal Daniel
Webster being reprimanded for hav-
ing dirty handsl Yet this was the
case more than once during his early
boyhood. One instance in which
Daniels wit saved him from the de-
served thrashing is given by Forrest
Prescott Hall, in an article in the
January Arena:
Day after day Daniel appeared in
class with his hands besmeared with
dirt, paying no attention whatever
to the urgent appeals of the teacher
to keep them clean. Finally the
climax was capped. One day Web
ster presented himself in the class
room with his usual unclean ap-
pearance. The teacher could stanC
it no longer, and quickly calling the
boy to the desk, took up his dirty
hand and exclaimed in an enrageC
tone, webster, if you can show me
another hand in this room as dirty
as this one, | will not punish you"
| Webster quickly drew up his Other
hand and said, "Here's one, profes-
sor."
The teacher was wholly taker
aback by the brightness OF his young
pupil and admitted that be wa,
beaten. Webster took his seat with,

Charleston, ". Va, January 15.-
The feeling Of resentment on the part
Of the members Of the West Virginia
National Guard on account Of the fail
ure Of Goyernor-elect Atkinson to ap-
point as his General some one
identified with the National Guard,
seems 10 have grown more intense than
ever, and it is feared that this feeling
o. resentment viii result seriously to
the military Of the State.
A leading member OF the Legislature
on the Republican side expressed him
self to-day pretty freely in regard to
this matter lie says the Natlonal
Guard has received distinct snub IN
this matter. He thinks that those who
have expended their time and money
for the last ten years in building up
and organizing the West Virginia Ma
tional Guard should have been consult
ed. He regards Major Appleton as moth
ing more than d civilian. The fact that
he fought in the war thirty-tiye years
ago and ranked as a Major, is no evi-
dence Of his fitness to fill an important
position in the military Of the State,
as the military laws of the country
have undergone three distinct changes
since the time when Major Appleton
served as soldier in the war He says:
"All honor to the old soldier. He is
entitled to all the respect and emolu-
ments that can be given him with
safety to the interest OF the State. But
now that the military code has been
completely changed, old soldiers know
but very little about the military usages
and especially about the care of prep
erty, and it is a noteworthy fact that
there was more money wasted and
goods stolen during the late civil war
than was spent legitimately for the
necessary costs of maintaining the
army"
The correspondent of the Register
heard at least one member and rank
ing colonel state to-day that he ex-
pected TO resign his commission be-
cause he felt no further interest in the
National Guard. lie had given
great portion of his time and spent
!rcts cf dollars during the las ten
years in building up the National
Guard. ard he feels that the officers and
members CT that organization have been
badly treated. This appears to be the
feeling among all the prominent Ma
tional Guard T<ople who have been
here this week and who have learned
with very great disappointment that
the Office of Adutant-General is to be
bestowed upon q gentleman who has
not been in any way identified with the
militarv Of the State. It is predicted
that every officer of the West Virginia
National Guard will hand in his res
