Among other things Hon. ErvIng
Wlnslow says is: THE destruction OF
our government, taxation, mllItarism
and the costly and unending war of

planetary policy is about what 1t is, on
the line laid down by distinguished
commentator. which says that. in spite

OF the LIQUID notes OF the babblinR brook
that threaded the meadow green.
OF n shaded path. like flowery trail that
led to tho Promised Land,
OF lovers, thrilled with ecstatic bliss, there
wandering hand In hand,
The dreamy cast OF the tender blue that
tinted the malden's eyes
Enhanced by the E0dlike words she heard
till It rivnled the azure skies
a maiden fair as poets dream sat read
ing the words inspired,
And her heart, scarce SCARED by the shafts
OF love. with admiration was fired.

West Virginian on American Sway.

Elsewhere will be found an address
delivered by Hon. j. p. Dolllver. at
chautauqua, New York. on the subject
Of the American flags civilized sway,
expansion and our national responsible
tiles. 1t was brought out by some
questions from an Atkinsonian, and is
one OF the most patriotic delIverances
upon the Philippine question yet deliv-
cred, as was shown by the effect 1t had,
We commend the reading Of this SPLEEN
did and eloquent speech for two rea-
sons: First. 1t completely covers the
question at issue. and. secondly, 1t will
be of especial interest to Mr.. Delivers
many friends in West Virginia.
Although Mr.. DoHiver is a congress
man from Iowa, and leader in the
house of Representatives, he is West
Yirginlan. and West virginians, with
out regard to party, are always proud
OF him, because he has risen to such
distinction, and stlll looks upon this
state with the fondness and interest OF
all other natives who have gone abroad
to win fame. The New York sun
doesnt know this fact about Mr.. Dolil-
yer, but 1t pays him just desert when
It says:
Our compliments to the Hon. Jonathan
p. Dolliver. OF Iowa, who stated the case
70 ChRutauQuH and to the country with
q precision and force and felicity rarely
equnlied. His remarks on the subjects OF
expansion and national responsibility, as
drawn forth by the questions OF Baptist
clergyman Of the AtBinsonian school, for
mulate the creed OF Americanism.
There are other statesmen from the hne
middie-aged state which produces Dolll-
yer. There is Hon. David Bremner Hen
derson, for example.
An this Is true. but one thing, which
credits Mr. Dolliver as being a product
of Iowa. West vlrginians who know
him So well are not surprised that his
magnificent delivery referred to form
ulates the creed of Amerlcanism," for
they know well his abilities and elO-
auence. The sentiments uttered by
DoIliyer will find a responsive echo
wherever they are read. The Suns last
sentence refers to Henderson as being
also from Iowa. This is in connection
with Col. Henderson's candidacy for
sneaker to succeed Mr.. Reed. Perhaps
Mr.. DollIver, with his influence, west
and central, might deserve some mem
ton.

The State Fair this year is going to
be one of the best. In the point of at
fractions, in the history Of the associa-
tlon. There will be several big days. but
the ones which will be of the greatest
direct benefit to the fair and the city
will be the merchants days; and why
should they not be? The executive
committee isn't losing any time in ar
ranging plans for entertainment, and
as all sorts Of business will be bene-
fitted, liberal donations to the finance
committee should not be withheld. The
EFFORT to obtain the attendance Of the
merchants of West Virginia, Western
Penn sylvanla and Eastern Ohio, and
TO entertain them Hospitality, is worthy
and commendable, and needs encour-
agement. Not only for their own adj
vancement, but for the sake of the
natural city pride that Wheeling peo-
pie have, our local merchants will not
be shortcoming. we feel sure.

Governor Atkinson, who was in Pitts
burgh Monday, gave the Pittsburgh
Dispatch an interesting talk on West
Virginia, its increasing wealth and in
dustrlal development 1t shows that
the state leads the Union in oil and
lumber, is second in the production of
coke, third, and almost second, in coal,
and has a good many other bright
prospects. on account of the business
boom, he says. things political are
quiet, and there is considerable truth in
the statement. The governor only
touches on politics long enough 70 as
sert that the state Is safely Republican;
that he believes the people will sup
port the national administration and
its policies: that there is nothing else
to do but to establish civilized govern
ment in the Philippines: that If Dewey
had left Manila after his victory we
would have ben censured by the civil
lized nations. There is lots of good
sense in what the governor says about
the situation.

A welcome Visit.

It is probable that during the fall we
will have a distinguished visitor in the
form of president OF our nearest sis
ter republic, President Diaz, of Mexico.
The managers of the national export
exposition, to be held in Philadelphia
during September and October, during
which Is to be held the Pan-Amerlcan
Industrial Congress, have invited Dlaz
and it is probable that the famous
Mexican general and statesman may
come. Aside from the mere international
social feature of the event OF a visit, 1t
would be good business stroke to have
him at Philadelphia.
In speaking OF our opportunities for
commerce in the market which Mexico
presents, 1t must be borne in mind that
1t lies at our doors. and we can supply
everything which the Mexicans are now
seemingly purchasing over in Europe.
That is one reason why the Philadel-
phians want President Dlaz to attend
the export exposition. The desire is
that he should see the advantages, that
will be illustrated in the exhibits, to
Mexico and the United States In form
ing closer and more liberal trade rela-
lions. There Is no reason why visit
to the exposition would not have the
effect of proving to the head of the
Mexican government that American
manufacturers can do better for the
Mexlcaus than the Europeans can.
