TRADE AND THE FLAG.

The administrations attitude with
regard to the partition of China in
which it righteously declines to take
part, asking nothing more than the
continuance of American rights there
as already established and recognized,
is in marked contrast to its Philippines
policy.
In the Philippines, out in the Pacific,
bordering the China sea, the admins
tration is spending hundreds of mill
ions of money ard sacrificing hundreds
Of precious lives to gain a worthless
archipelago because OF the alleged
trade advantages it will give us in
the Orient, while it turns its back on
an opportunity to get slice of China
a hundred fold more valuable on the
trade theory as market and as a
key" to Oriental trade than all the
islands of the Pacific.
If trade follows the flag" why not
raise the flag in China?
The fact is, the administrators
sensible policy in China gives the lie
to it's rade-follows-th e-fag theory,
which is for use only to cover the i'm
peria1 scheme in the Philippines and
will not hold water.
The trade of the United States to-
day penetrates to every part of the
known world and is easily supreme
there without being accompanied in
any instance by the flag. The admin
istration admits that it Is not neces-
sary to raise our flag in China to main
tain our trade there. We had the bulk
of the trade of the Philippines long
before there ever was any thought of
raising the flag there, and the attempt
to raise it over those islands now as
an emblem of conquest will not only
not increase our trade there, but ac-
tually create hatred among the Fill
pinos for all things American.
Mr.. Mckinley is right in his posi-
ton regarding China, and being right
there he is wrong in. the Philippines.
American trade does not need the back
ing of imperial bayOnets anywhere in
the world Its supremacy has an en-
tirely different foundation.

FAVORABLE ACTION TAKEN.

Yesterday the Belmont County Com
missioners and the pike commissioners
in company with gentlemen interested
in the projected trolly line from
Bridgeport to Colerain and beyond,
went over the route to be covered be-
tween Bridgeport and Benz Whites,
about a mile beyond Colerain. along
the Cadiz pike, and the officials were
very favorably impressed with the
practicability Of the project, which
presages favorable action. The gentle
men interested in the road will push
the Improvement with all possible en-
ergy.
The Register has heretofore fully out
lined the details of this important pro-
ject, and it has the approval of all
citizens along the proposed route. The
road is projected as far as Cadiz, but
Mt Pleasant will be the first import
ant point struck. 1t will open up
rich and populous country, and will
be benefit to this whole community.

As To .AnANpoNIxe RAMA.

A widespread demand in the Repub-
lican party has manifested itself since
the election for the retirement of Sena-
tor Hanna from the general manage
ment of Republican party affairs and
especially from the control of the ma
chine in Ohio. This demand has sprung
up since the recent election in which
Ohio for the first time in many years
failed to elect a Republican Governor
by a majority of all the votes, Nash's
vote being in the minority against the
vote Of Mclean and Jones by about
$4,000, showing that had jones not di-
vided the opposition to the administra-
ton and its policies Judge Nash
would have been defeated by that ma
jority While Republican organs and
politicians for appearances sake may
claim to be satisfied with the result in
Ohio the administration leaders and the
big guns in the Republican party
plainly are not at all pleased and some
OF their comments on the situation
show something very much like alarm.
The effort is made to hold Hanna
responsible for the anti-administrasion
vote in Ohio and the big boss now for
the first time is learning what some
Of his Republican colleagues really
think of him. Heretofore they have
feared his apparent power in the party,
which has really seemed absolute, and
have carefully RETAINED from criticism
or opposition because his brutal meth
DDS and bulldozing personality inspir-
ec fear. But now that a revolution has
apparently started in Ohio. itself,
against Hanna and Hannaism the
numerous enemies of the oily boss,
who have lain Quiescent in his own
party, seize the opportunity to join In
! The attack upon him. For instance, the
New York Tribune prominently pub
fishes the following from a trusted
staff correspondent:
There is no Disgusting the truth about
senator Hanna. Notwithstanding his ac-
knoWledged ability as an organizer. to Re-
publicans the developments of the cam
pa.gn have been a humiliating lesson in
respect OF their leadear. That the party's

A GNOD NAN.

The Register ere this has had occa-
sion to speak of Hon. Andrew Edmis-
ton, of Weston, as most excellent DEM
ccratic gubernatorial timber. He is a
tried and true Democrat of the Old
school, and no man is better grounded
in the principles of true Jeifersonian
and Jacksonian Democracy. He has
had wide experience in the affairs of
State and would enter the Office OF
Governor thoroughly equipped to give
West Virginia a clean, competent, in
telliSent and honest Democratic ad-
stration-something the State has

This is the manly statement of a
manly man and true Democrat.
That Mr. Edmiston can we'll afford
to make campaign and afterward de-
vote his time to the poorly paid office
of Governor is evident from the state
ment of our Clarksburg contemporary,
which says:
HE is head-over-heels into the oil
business; has corralled large block
of the most desirable oil territory in
Lewis county; has refused big price
for it; has wells now going down on
the property, and the best OF prospects

RAILROAD GATE WRECKED

Yesterday morning just as B. &

section of Sixteenth and Chapline
streets. and while the gate was being
lowered, a milkman attempted to drive
through under it. The gate at the
northwest corner dropped between the
wagon and the horse, and as a result
the horse took fright and broke away
from the wagan, wrecking the gate in
cidentally. No one was hurt, but it
was a bad mixup for few minutes.

The election of Judge Nash by the larg-
est plurality given any candidate for Gov
ernor in Ohio since the reelection of Nc
kinney in 1893, is more than significant
lnteligencer.
The truth is, Judge Nash is the only
Republican candidate for Governor in
Ohio in recent years who has failed to
receive majority of the total vote.
He is in a MINORITY of about $4,000.

McDermott & Co. have another big gusher
in this county and it shows the course of
the sand from the Sarah f, Eddy farm to
the Lantz farm in Batte1e district. The
well in question is the Rufus Bell No. l,
and it made three hundred barrels when it
first reached the pay. Col. McDermott, the
principal owner, stated when asked about
1t that it would make a thousand barrels
when it was drilled deeper. This well is
about midway between the Eddy farm and
the Lantz farm, both of which have very
large producers on them. 1t shows that
the four miles between the wells on either
end will afford many good wells when
they are drilled in. Operations may be
expected to be very greatly stimulated on
account of this strike
