their engagement in Morgantown

time destroys all hopes of putting
them upon paying basis by refus-

LIST MADE
Of West Virginians who get
Census Jobs.
Conference held in Washington with
Senator Elkins by Secretary Dawson
and others.


and others.
A new burden OF responsibility has
fallen upon the shoulders of the men,
bers of the Republican State machine.
1t is the distribution of appointments
that will be allowed West Virginia
under the census enumeration to be
made. The task, while it requires
some labor and brain work. is not an
unwelcome one for the ambitious Re-
publican politician grasps greedily at
such chance and delights to be in a
position where he can distribute favors
to strengthen himself politically and
increase his following.
As is well known, the census bureau
will have several hundred thousand APP
pointmants TO dispose of and they will
be apportioned out among the differ
ent States.
OF course, all the appointments will
be political ones and Democrat
stands no more chance of getting a
job collecting census statistics than a
snow ball has in warmer climate.
The appointments will be given TO Re-
something of a political pull.
Those who have not ma. as well
save postage stamps, paper. and labor
in applying With such vast amount
of patronage to dispose of the places
will only be given to those who are
active in politics and have some in
fiuence to use in behalf of those who
give them their appointments. Such
a rare opportunity to strengthen them
selves politically will not be neglected
by ambitious and greedy politicians.
The wire pullers that control the e.
O. p. machine in West Virginia poll
tics are not exceptions by any means.
They have their right eye open to the
opportunity and have decided that
none but their friends shall receive any
of the Federal patronage TO be dealt
out.
Secretary OF State Dawson, A. B.
White, Charley Elliott, senator Elkins
and ex. Commissioner Scott are at the
present time holding a conference in
Washington over the matter and ar
ranging the list of appointments TO be
made. Secretary Dawson left yester-
day and it was arranged that he. White
and Elliott should meet in Washing
ton. The whole matter will be set
tied while they are there, and the Of
fice-seeker who is turned down must
know that his name was not put on
the slate fixed by the politicians at
Washington.

TWO CENTS
A new PLANT.
Company to Manufacture a new
Kind of Coal Barge.
Pressed steel TO be used instead OF
Wood--They are Hunting Location
Pittsburg People make up the Com
pany -Morgantown has a good Right
to the Plant as any Place We should
go After 1t.

w tMU fuht az amy AfhtC-V w sMVutu
go After 1t.
a company has been formed in Pitts
burg for the construction of steel
barges and they are seeking a loca-
ton. They expect TO locate some
where in this valley and they have no
preference as to the place where the
works will be established.
The barges are to take the place
of the old cumbersome wooden affairs
which have been used for SO long To
carry the coal of the valley to market.
The wooden ones while being very
heavy and taking a very small load
compared to the steel ones are easily
broken up when they strike an obstruc
ton there by losing the cargo into the
river
The steel ones are said to have every
advantage over the wooden ones.
They are very much lighter and thus
can be handled with greater ease
thus allowing the tow to be made cas-
Ter when coming back. Besides this
they will take fifty percent more car
go than the old ones.
The company is composed OF some
Of the monied men OF Pittsburg and
they expect their product to supplant
the old form Of the barges in use.
This valley will be the seat Of the
plant and Morgantown has as good
right as any other place TO get the in
stitution.
The attention Of the people who are
interested in the growth OF the town
Is called to this organization and they
should take some steps to do what
they can to get the plant located here
No other place is In the lead as far
as preference is concerned and there
is no reason why we can't get 1t IL we
make the proper effort.

TENSION IN THE TRANSVAAL.

The Dopper tyranny dies hard. The Trans
vaal CONSTITUTION" has been so amended as 10
require "OOm Paul's' white niggers' to rlvet
their own letters. The burghers are furnishing
I'M their arms. The cannon trained upon JONAH
nesburg are double shotted. Every osteDsible-
or ostentatIous- appropriation is being made for
war. so reluctant is the Boer President TO ful-
FL the solemn and formal promise or nfteen
years ago Yet even in such circumstances we
are reluctant to look for war
For there Is more than one indication that the
Transvaal Government is merely "blufhng." III
so. II Is buffing on n colossal scale But that Is
what buffng naturally tends toward. little
bluff is not worth making One Of the indica-
lions Is that the Transvaal Is making desperate
appeals to Bloemfontein and to Cape Town Tor
aid and guidance. A State strong in Its right
and steadfast in its purpose would not do that
Again, those appeals are not well met. The
Orange Free State is apathetic Her statesmen
advise the Transvaal Government to yield. AS
for the Cape its foremost Dutchmen have open
ly urged Mr.. Kriger to accept the British pro-
posals. Yet again, 1t is perfectly well known
that many members Of the Pretoria Legislat-
ure. including the yice-President and Com
mander In Chief, are strongly opposed to the
Presidents bellcose rule or ruin policy.
The danger Is that the bluing will be carried
too far. as It may easily be. We can conceive
Great Britnins taking it seriously and proceed
ing to measures which would make conflict in
evitable. We can conceive an uprising OF the
natives in n furious mass. We can conceive
revolt of the Outlanders against what seems an
interminable despotsm. Any one OF these and
of other things may happen any day. In that
case full blame for the deplorable and disas-
trous sequences would rest upon the Pretoria
Government and its stubborn but shifty head.
Until such crisis occurs, however. 1t will be
both kind and wise TO hope that better counsels
will prevail and that the Pretorian buffing will
be stopped in time to avert disaster.
