terized by dry air which, unlike a
humid atmosphere, is incapable of
communicating heat, the temperature
In midsummer remains at a delight

day, and at night becomes invariably

The Trail Of the Serpent.
Parkersburg Sentinel.

The secret, but discovered, visit
of the attorney of the sugar trust te
Canton a few days ago to call on Nc
Kinley and consult with him con-
corning the selection of his cabinet,
and to incidentally urge the ap.
pointment of friend of the sugar
trust as attorney general of the Uni.
ted States, will go a long ways toward
arousing the people to a full sense
of the meaning of the last national
election. The attorney general is the
officer charged with the duty Of pun.
ishing crimes against the government,
and with seeing that violations of law
are stopped and that its violators suffer
the penalties provided for their wrong
doing. The sugar trust, and all Other
unlawful combinations and trusts have
enjoyed such immunity in the past
that they are unwilling to give up theiI
privilege of defying the law and rob.
bling the people. They assume, not
unnaturally, that the precedent set by
Cleveland and Olney of protecting
trusts should become the accepted
law of the land of respects them, and
as they joined with Cleveland and the
gold democrats in electing Mckinley
they assert their right not only tc
dictate part as the policy of the new
administration, but also toinsist upon
participating in the selection of the
officers of the cabinet who are charged
with the enforcement of the laws OF
the land. Olney as attorney general
under Cleveland peremptorily refused
to proceed against the trusts that
were engaged in open and fragrant
defiance of the law. He protected
them in every way, and blocked
every effort made to compel them to
answer for their legal crimes. I'm
der this administration these lawless
elements have practically usurped all
the functions of certain lines of bust
ness, and have set at defiance the de-
mands going up on all sides for the
enforcement of the law The fact
that the representative of the most
notorious and offensive of all trusts
has visited Mckinley to suggest to
the president-elect the name of a
proper person whom he should ap-
point as chief law officer of the
government already taints the next
administration with a suspicion that
the people are to be left at tae mercy
of this giant corporation for another
four years. So far as the trusts are
concerned they are little or nothing
for any cabinet Office except that of
attorney general. Their crimes are
acknowledged They have fattened
and grown wealthy by violating the
W hNohOi uhNJ NC pun
ished for their wrong doing, or
whether their scheme of robbery
shall be continued and protected
rests with those entrusted with the
administration of the law An at
torney general friendly to the trusts
would mean a continued license to
plumber. An honest attorney gen.
eral would means breaking up all
along the line of the trusts, and the
punishment of the criminals of the
corporations. If Mr.. Mckinley hopes
to begin his career as executive with
clean surroundings and the respect
and confidence of the people he must
not give the trusts latch key to his
private office.

Our OleOmargarine Law.

The decision of the supreme court,
recently, that the West Virginia law
requiring oleomargarine and other
artificial butter to be colored pink is
constitutional, has been the subject
of considerable comment, and some
of our contemporaries outside of the
state serve notice on us that the
state will be carefully watched from
now on with desire to see if it will
have the power to enforce the act.
The Pittsbnrg Times says that if
the law is successfully enforced there
will be at least one state in the I'm
ion in which oleomargarine will be
compelled to travel under an honest
flag.
The Times also very properly
makes the point that the war on oleo-
margarine is not the article itself, but
to compel it to be sold under its
proper name and not as genuine but
ter. This is correct If people are
willing to buy it they have right
to do so, but SO long as manufactur-
ers and dealers are tempted to deal
dishonesty with the public by palm
ing it off as butter on people who
want only genuine butter, then law
requiring that it should have dis
tinguishing color is proper from the
standpoint ofjustice The Times
says
The plea that to color the product
pink is to add an adulterant is ridic-
ulous. Anything that enters into
the composition of oleomargarine is
one of the ingredients, for the stuff
is not natural product, construct
ed after fixed formula, nor staple
chemical or mechanical mixture. II
it is permissible to put into it col
oring matter that shall make it yell
low, dye that will impart a pink
hue is equally legitimate as a neces-
sary ingredient, and under the law
much more so.
If the oleomargarine makers would
deal honestly with the people and
make and sell their stuff under it's
proper brand, and as oleomargarine,
content to sell what they make, in
stead of trying to deceive people in
to buying something they do not
want, West Virginia would not en-
terrain the idea of pink cleo. But
as long as pink butter will be hon
est in informing the buyer that it is
made of other things than the con-
tents of the dairy buckets, pink but
ter has something in its favor.-In-

SENATOR FAST.
Very Complimentary Sketch or Our
Senator.


CHARLESTON, W. Va, Feb. 22.-
One of the ablest lawyers ever in the
state legislature is Hon Richard
Ellsworth Fast, of Morgantown, who
represents the 18th senatorial district,
composed of the counties of Mononga-
liza, Preston and Taylor He was
elected by a majority of 3,693. His
father, Hon. Richard Fast was a
member of the legislature under the
restored government Of Virginia, and
signed the original declaration of the
restored government Of Virginia. His
paternal ancestors, the Fasts and the
Rexes, were Pennsylyanians of Ger
man descent. Robert Farrell, mat
ernal ancestor was sheriff of Monon-
gala county in 1896.
Senator Fast acquired his education
while young. AT l6 he wrote for pub
LEGATION. A number of young men do
the same thing at the same age, but
the feature of Mr.. Fast's literary eff
forts were that they were accepted and
paid for with request for more. He
graduated from the public schools and
then the state university. He also en-
tered public life early. In '82 he was
deputy county clerk and two years later
was elected clerk of the circuit court.
While filling the arduous duties of
that position he graduated from the
law department of the state university;
in 1887, and several consecutive years
following he was mayor Of Morgan
f0wn xuac unIar hic m, n t,anar,apt
of city affairs that the staid school
town shook off its Rip Van Wrinkle
like lethargy and developed into one
of West Virginia's hustling towns.
Mr.. Fast began the active practice
of law six years ago. During that
brief time he has attracted to himself
a large and growing chenille in that
most profitable branch of the profess
ion-commercial and corporation law
chancery business. He seldom takes
criminal cases. A notable exception
to this rule, however, was when he
assisted the state in the Musgrave
murder trail. He is particularly
strong in municipal law, having COM
piled code of ordinances which has
been adopted by Morgantown, Fair
mont and Warrington.
In the senate Mr.. Fast did paticular-
ly good service in the Augusta county
fight. His arguments were so strong
and forcible against the proposed coun-
ty that the opposition was dumb
founded, the only answer it could
make being some clondy reference to
mot being mislead by handsome
rhetoric and polished SENTENCE the
only reply possible when the argu-
ments are under of the upanswerable
sort. Senator Fast has a bright
political future. Perhaps the only
drawback to his career is that he is too
independent to suit the party bosses
and does not hesitate to take stand
for the right even through his party
suffers.
