RICHMOND, Va, February 25.-By
what is regarded as one of the most
diplomatic moves known to Virginia
politicians the United States govern
ment Is practically empowered to do
what may result in forcing a settle
ment between West Virginia and this
State. This has been a bone of conten-
ton for thirty years.
The holders of the debt. which
amounts to s15,OOO,O0O have for years
unsuccessfully attempted to obtain
authority to bring suit against West
Virginia in the name of this Common
wealth. Brown Brothers & Faehnstock
OF New York, are the holders of or
represent about $4,000, 900 of the debt.
They, however, are said to look with
disfavor upon the government backing
up any such suit.
Authority for the proposed action is
provided in the act passed at the last
session OF Congress for the payment of
claims of the respective States for the
equipment Of troops for the Spanish

Special to the Register.
WESTON, w. Va, February U.s.
Our Oldest citizens can't remember of
time before when Weston was so
completely isolated as 1t now is. The
Clarksburg Council and Health Board
have taken a positive stand in their
quarantine against Lewis county, per-
hitting nothing but mail matter fumi-
gated to enter the county. All efforts
of the railroad officials, our Health
Board and the committee of citizens
to have the Harrison county quaran-
tine modified have so far been fruit
less. 1t is rumored here that Lewis
county was going to quarantine against
Harrison. Mr.. O'Hara, of the Health
Board, says mo action has yet been
taken against Harrison county. We
are waiting developments"
Rev. w. H. Burkhardt is much bet
ter tonight. Doctor ]. S. Lewis says:
THE eruptions are leaving Rev.
Burkhardt., l am of the same opinion
that it not smallpox. l will go in the
house tomorrow to make close exam
nation"
All our through mail matter will be
made up and pouched so as not to come
in the jurisdiction of the Clarksburg
quarantine. The only outlet to the
outside world from here is through the
counties of Gilmer, Richie and Dod-
bridge, striking the B. & o. at West
Union. Several people have left for
their homes via this route. There is
a rumor that on account of the travel
by this route DR.. A. ]. Woofter, of the
Gilmer county Health Board was going
to quarantine against Lewis. DR.. A. J.
Woofter, of the Gilmer county Health
Board, telephones that this will not be
done. Doctor Woofter adds that every
thing in Gilmer county is now in fine
shape. and all the cases nearly we'll.
Three new cases are reported on the
island at Buckhannon. am unable to

American war. 1t directs that before
any such claim shall be paid to any
State against whom the Federal gov
eminent holds claim the Secretary of
the Treasury shall bring suit The
United States holds million or two
of the West Virginia certificates, and
under this authority the Secretary of
the Treasury is empowered to bring
suit against this State.
In the Virginia Senate to-day Mr..
Wickham stated that Hon. j. G. Car
Isle had been employed to institute
such a proceeding against Virginia.
The Virginia delegation in Congress,
Mr. Wickham declared, would expose
on the floor of the House the manner
in which this authority was granted if
the government undertook to prosecute
the suit without due notice. 1t is pref
ty generally understood in legislative
circles that Senator Steve Elkins, of
West Virginia, inspired the hand which
prepared the seemingly innocent pro-
vision in order that such proceedings
may be brought against Virginia.
The State Senate to-day considered,
and will tomorrow pass, bill which
will authorize the Virginia debt COM
mission to have deposited with it
West Virginia certificates, subject to it's
control, upon an agreement with the
holders thereof that they will accept
such prorata amount as may be receiv-
ed by the commission in it's proposed
settlement with West Virginia.
Should these deposits amount to as
two-thirds of the West Virginia part of
the debt, then this commission, with
the approval Of the attorney general,
is authorized to institute such pro-
ceedings as to it may seem proper.

THE TRUE REMEDY.
Strike at the ROot-Get Rid of Dis
crimfnatfOn-OneT Thing at Time;
BY Henry w. Lamb.

Watch out" It should never be
forgotten that the greatest evil Of the
Trust" monopolies is their power to
extort high prices from the American
people, and that the true remedy is to
remove that power. Without the pro-
tective tariff taxes Trusts might re-
main, but their extortions would al
most disappear and they would then
lack the power to prevent the applica-
ton of other remedies to other evils.
The danger in some of the remedies
which are now proposed is that they
would strengthen the root of the evil.
That root is the abuse of the powers
of government. Let US profit by ex-
perience. Hands off" is, after all, a
good and safe general doctrine for true
democracy. We have seen, in tariff
legislation, what a dangerous mistake
it was ever to open the door to gov
ernmental interference and how impos-
sible it is for Congress, even when
fresh from the people, to discriminate
either wisely or fairly in fixing tariff
rates to direct our trade. The inevti-
able result was that organized capital.
or organized TRUSTS" exercised the
power through the government and
Disseminated, in favor of themselves.
Do away with governmental inter-
ference in trade, except for revenue
purposes only, and we get rid Of this
abuse Of power; give government, on
the other hand, more power of inter-
ference and discrimination, and we
put more power into the hands Of the
TRUSTS" They control the govern
ment by the wealth which the govern
ment, through protective taxes, makes
our people give to the Trusts"
That is the danger in the schemes
with which many we'll meaning oppo-
nents of Trusts" are now leading pop
ular attention away from the true rem
edy. A tax on Trust" profits, gov
eminent regulation of Trust prices.
government control of railroads, all
put fresh power to discriminate into
hands that have too much of that
power already. There can be no doubt
that the power would be abused.
Now the removal Of tariff taxes
which foster TRUSTS" will not reach all
the evils. But it will remove such a
large part that the evils remaining
will be deprived of much support which
now covers them. 1t will clear the
way so that all may see, for instance,
the exact extent to which Trusts" are
favored by railroad rebates and dis
examinations; and it will also greatly
reduce the extent. 1t will then be pos
sibie to concentrate public opinion
upon the point in such way as to
complete the execution of laws against
those evils. Such laws already exist
and the difficulty is not in making
them sufficient but in securing their
enforcement
But concentrated public opinion Is
still more powerful in our country
than wealth or corruption, and, taking
them one by one, it will overthrow all
Trust. evils. The first step is to
unite in the demand that tariff favors
be removed.
