trary to the propositions ! make in my
| contest. If the contention of Senator
| Faulkner, who constituted Senator
| SCOTS only counsel, and as such pre-
| scented this case, be true. then the West
Virginia Legislature, when it comes to
| elect a successor to Senator Elkins,
can simply by arbitrary resolution de-
clare the seats vacant, of enough Re-
publican members and the substitution
of enough Democratic members in their
stead, to make a majority by which a
| Democrat can be elected to the United
| States Senate to succeed Senator Ell
kins as Senator. If that contention be
true Senator Quay. of Pennsylvania.
has beer wasting his time in his eff
| forts to induce the Senate of the United
States to seat him, when he can quietly
so back to the State of Pennsylvania,
reconvene it's Legislature, and by a
simple resolution silence enough of his
opponents and the substitution of
enough of his partisans to make a
majority, and thus upon the face of the
records show that he was legally elect
ed to the Senate of the United Sta.ns
by a majority of the members of that
Legislature voting in joint assembly.
This is a no more radical departure
from the rules which obtain, and
| should obtain in such cases, than the
insistence of Senator Scott in his claim
to a seat in the Senate of the United
States. AS | have heretofore sug-
gested,
If This Rule Obtains
and can be regarded as the fixed pre-
cedent, or even the common law, OF
the Senate and Legislature of West
Virginia when called upon to elect a
successor to Senator Elkins IAN take
its House of Delegates, which is over
| whelmingly Democratic, declare the
seats of enough members vacant and
the substitution of men who are not
| elected to fill these vacancies to make
a Democratic majority in the joint as
sembly. This is no more than was done
in the Scott case when the West Vir-
ginia Senate, Republican by an over
whelming majority, by a resolution sub
stituted Norries, the defeated candi-
date, for Mr.. Kidd, the concededly
elected Democratic candidate. If the
principle once established is justifable
in one instance. it would be j%ustifable
in enough instances to create and make
a majority. Senator Elkins l under
| stand to be
The Chief IN
and the principal advocate of this con-
tention, and if it be adopted by the
Senate of the United States 1t may rise
to taunt him when he, too, next year
comes before the West Virginia Legis-
lature asking its credentials to again
represent the State OF West Virginia
in the Senate Of the United States. In
this | mean to make no threat as to
what has been in the past accomplished,
or that which in the future may OBJ
tain in West Virginia in respect to the
election of United States Senator, but
l simply apply the conditions which
| will obtain next year in West Virginia
with that which is insisted upon this
year as the common law in respect TO
the election of a United States Sena-
tor"

Bryan no Coward.

heu Bryan was at Patterson,
N. j., few days ago, he recognized
that he was up against the real
thing, that he was in the robbers
roost of the country, and he dealt
out some sledge hammer blows to
the trust laws of the state. He
said:
"This state is the robbers roost,
the cave of the forty thieves, where
the plumber of the trusts is divided
and the people are placated with
the promise that they will receive a
percentage'of the rake'off, but the
time is approaching when New Jer-
sey can no longer create trusts to
prey upon the rest of the country,
when their operations will be con-
fued to her own borders, and she
will devour you. President McKin-
ley has acknowledged the danger
from trusts, and that he does not
know what to do about it. But l
have an opinion that had he wanted
to do anything he would have chos-
en- an attorney.general from some
other state than New Jersey to do
it."

Kidney disease is the enemy we
have most to fear as a result of the
feverish restlessness of our much
vaunted modern civilization. 1t is a
treacherous enemy working out its
deadly effect under cover of the
most triling symptoms, The first
indication of changes in the urine,
frequent headaches, digestive
troubles should be the signal for
prompt remedial measures. Prickly
Ash Bitters is a kidney remedy OF
superlative merit; it is soothing
healing and strengthening, quickly
relieves the aching or soreness that
always appears in the advanced
stages, checks the progress of the
disease and through its excellent

brings back the strength and ruddy
glow of vigorous health. Sold by

Sound Logic.

The following good sound advice
from an exchange should put all
thoughtful people to thinking.
Here is what it says: "Wben you
step into store and find that the
merchants asks you from fourth
to half more for his wares than he
did year ago, don't fall out with
the merchant, but with the repub-
lican party. The plain truth is that
the trusts have raised the price on
every single manufactured article.
Domestic is up 40 per cent. All
prints up from 20 to 60 per cent.
Leather is sky high. Hardware is
playing tag with the man in the
moon. So when your merchant
asks you two prices for what you
formerly got for one, don't look at
him like you thought he was a
thief, but go out in the alley and
kick yourself for an hour for voting
for Mckinley, under whom trusts
wax fat and impudent. The mer-
chant has the price put upon him by
the trusts and he has to hand it
down to you, There is not a man
with family of five who has bought
$4O0 worth of manufactured ar
ticles the past year but has paid
the trusts a tax of a cool hundred
dollars. The way 10 retire the
trusts is to retire the party that
fosters them"
