The death of A. W. Campbell, esq, for
so many years connected with the
Wheeling lntelligcncer and indirectly
with the newspaper. concerns of West
/ Virginia, awakenS many memories in
the mind of the senior of The Herald
for so many years contemporary and
in early time almost an intimate 1t
may not be generally known that about
the period when Mr. Campbell was
meditating his association with the In
telligcnccr. more than one conversation
was had with the writer. and very
small influence might have changed the
arrangements concerning the two news
papers. the Herald and the Intelligent
Ger. and possibly the fortunes of two
very young men concerned.
Campbell was then hardly out of his
teens. and we had reached the mature
age Of twenty-five or twcnty-six; both
were full of hope and ambition and both
were in full accord In regard to the poll
teal and especially to the social ques-
tons that were at that time predomi-
nant. The combination might have
made a stronger one and It might not
who knows? But the fate that shapes
our ends shaped them otherwise; and ms
the years passed on. although there
was never Il wide divergence OF views
and never any falling away of personal
friendship. our pathways gradually sep
aratcd
Did time and space and circumstances
allow. we might go more largely into
the particulars of Mr.. Campbcll's Views
in the early days of Republlcanism be-
fore the war: during the trying days of
the war: during the formation period
OF the state and afterward: and we
may at some future time, but for the
present. we must resist the inclination.
There are none now living and few
among the dead who had more TO do
than A. w. Campbell in building up a
public sentiment before the outbreak of
hostilities in favor of the preservation
OF the Union and none after the out
break more loyal to the Union. the con-
stitution and the enforcement OF the
laws. Other men may have rcaped
more OF the material recompense, as his
biographer observes: there were few or
none more deserving OF what the state
could give In honor or .emolument.

The French national assembly did
the remarkable thing OF averting rev.
olution and q crisis that might have
meant the death Of the republic. by
electing NJ. Loubct to succeed Faurc
as president. Any other course would
have preclpitated what was so much
dreaded for twenty-four hours after
Faures death. II was IL fortunate day
that saw the choice OF 4 president, who
has the respect of his countrymen to
the extent that disturbing elements
would not dare undertake n. coup
d'etat. As It was. the demonstrations by
few indictments and Nationalist,
who would have stirred up Il revolu-
ton, made matters rather stormy for
awhile. but were quellcd without much
trouble by the Paris police.
While this outcome of the election
was so satisfactory to the republicans
of France. and Is decided victory for
the republic. II 1t may really be called
n republic. It will require great skill
and watchfullness until matters grow
perfectly quiet again. The new prcsl-
dent has Il very high standing how
ever, and the clever pen picture drawn
of him by Emily Crawford. one OF the
Associated Press correspondents In
Paris. does not appear to cxaggeratc
the merits of the man.

Grafton Sentinel.

The death Of Hon. A. w. Campbell,
which occurred at Webster Groves. Mo-,
last Monday, is an event that carries
with 1t the sncerest regret throughout
the wide circle Of his numerous ad-
mirers and his old time constituency in
West Virginia. Mr.. Campbell was one
of the ablest of the states most distin-
guished men. He was a leading actor
in the great drama out OF which came
the new state OF West Virginia. It was
in those days as editor OF the Wheeling
Intelligenccr that he rendered great and
conspicuous service to his people. He
was worthy of the highest political hon.
ors. and no man has ever lived or been
identified with this state who will be
more sincerely mourned now that he
has passed from his career of useful
ness here.

THE INTELLIGENCER.
WHEELING, FEBRUARY 20, 1909,
State Augmentation Bill.

The appropriation bills in the lcgisla-
ture provide for about sl.70O.O00 for the
two years, the senate bill providing for
100000 in excess Of the house bill.
which covers the total named. The ag-
gregate is n comparatively small in
crease over the last biennial appro-
priations. which, considering the new
institutions to be provided for, the
greater demands in consequence of
these things, and the growth OF the
business of the state, Is not as great
an increase as might have been ex-
pected.
Nearly every appropriation asked for
has been scaled down by the commit
tees of both houses, some of them en-
tirely too low. and perhaps others not
low enough. At any rate. taking every
thing into consideration. the total per
year for the conduct of the state admin
istration. including all the institutions
which has grown to a million popula
ton. and is advancing all along the line,
is proport!onately not so large as in
other states. So rapidly have the de-
, nlands increased and the state devel-
oped that it is wonder that the needs
do not call for greater sums.
In the scaling down Of appropriations
for state Institutions 1t Seems that the
committees have shown disposition
to make unjust determinations. The
1ntelligencer does not believe in eN-
the strictest economy without impair
ing the usefulness OF our public insti-
tutions. or embarrassing their con-
duct. This unjustness, for some reason
which does not seem to be apparent
outside of prejudice, is most strikingly
illustrated in the case of the Univer-
sity. an institution which. during the
past two or three years, has grown far
beyond the proportions expected of 1t
that long ago. With an attendance ap-
preaching close to thousand students.
nearly double what 1t was during the
last legislature. with its influence
broadening. and its work benefitting the
entire state, with the attainment OF q
high standard among the universities
OF the country, 1t is proposed to cut
down the estimate more than third.
while the chairman of the house COM
mttee. Mr.. Mansfield, actually gave
notice in n conference of the house. and
senate finance committees that he
would have the house bill reported with
out any appropriation for the univer-
sity whatever. Finally II was agreed
that the University should be given
100000 for the two years, one-third less
than was necessary.
In other cases similar cuts were made.
such large cuts that the institutions
have in some cases had their interests
jeopardiZed. In the meantime the ap-
preparations will be but little greater
than two years ago. with all the in
creased needs OF the state. We see.
under our present system. no extrara-
gance about that: on the contrary. there
appears to be, in some cases, Il strain
ing at economy which would be better
were more fairness shown and less dis
elimination

Mr.. Campbell was editor OF the
Wheeling Intellgencer for twenty-five
years and welded an influence never at
tanned by any other West Virginian.
To his influence has been attributed the
signing by President Lincoln of the bill
for the admission of West Virginia into
the Union. opposed by n majority of the
cabinet. The tribute Of Governor At
kinson. telegraphed to the Intelligen-
Ger. voices the sentiments OF many
thousand admirers of Mr.. Campbell.

BY the death of A. w. Campbell West
Virginia loses one of her most able and
influential citizens. Mr.. Campbell was
for many years the editor OF the Intelli-
gencer and at the time Of his death
owned an interest in that paper. He
welded n great influence in the coun-
ellis of the Republican party Of the state.
and was one among the first after the
close Of the war to urge the re-enfran-
chisement of those who had taken the
part of the south. For this he was
roundly censured by many in his own
party, but time showed that he was
right. He was opposed to the policy Of
Imperialism and extracts from a letter
written by him have been widely copied.

A Railroad and Labor Problem.

"A hVllFudu anu u laDOr fFoDlcHl.
Various plans have been suggested
and many adopted by great corpora
tons that give extensive employment
to labor. for the maintalnment of sat-
isfactory relations between employers
and employees. They have not all. been
successful being defective often in
some Of their features, and the prob
lem Is one which is being discussed con-
siderabiy by employers. We refer to
large corporations such as railway
companies. ETC., which have many men
to be dealt with. The Chicago Times
Herald, in referring to this matter,
properly thinks that the corporation
which can put in successful operation

interests Of labor than "all the walking

every cmploye of the road. and an entry
is made in it for every case of neglect
of duty or violation OF rules. a record
Is also made OF every act of heroism or
loyalty TO the service or other meritor-
ious conduct, and these are given full
consideration in determining the stand
ing or promotion of an employe. For
an offenSe a note Is made on the book
that the employe is suspended for a

working. He Is suspended in form. but
not literally. and Is given an opDortu-

system Is the most important factor in
securing the most faithful and the most
