THE posroFfIcE SCANDAL.
The Half WIN Never be known.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
Postoffice Department investigation
afforded President Roosevelt fine
opportunity TO "make good" in a
manner most pleasing 10 his country
men, he has neglected the oppor
tunity, has gone to his summer home
and left behind him orders that the
''gag rule" must be enforced, no
news given out and the investigation
practically abandoned. The dis
closures so far made leave no doubt
in an intelligent mind that the in
vestigation has only bcgun-that
"worse remains behind"
The greedy fangs of corruption
have fastened themselves upon every
branch OF the postal service. Mr..
Bristow's report gives substantial
proof 81 shameless trsfficking in
Offices. graflng in almost every
bureau, OF bold and brazen defiance
of all civil .eryice rules. and of the
damnably pernicious influence of
party considerations in the admins
tration Of one of the greatest de-
partmenis of the Government.
One of the results of the inves.i-
CATION is the discovery that the four
States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Iowa have been especially fa-
vored in the distribution of rural
mail routes AS three of these are
pivotal States in national elections;

All West Virginia State Organizations
Cordially Invited

The invitation generally ex-
tended by the West Virginia Com
mission to the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition, suggesting that all
West Virginia State organizations
hold their 1904 annual gather
ings at st. Louis on the Worlds
Fair grounds, seems to have been
received with favor throughout
the State. Templars, Pythians,
Woodmen, Maccabees, Eagles,
Catholic Knights, Knights of Co
lumbus, wholesale grocers, editors,
doctors, dentists, undertakers-
these and the hundred and one
other State organizations are asked
to meet out of the State on this
occasion at least. The advantages
OF taking this course are quite APP
parent-the business of the meet
ing could be combined with pleas
ure to an extent impossible if the
meetings were held within the
State. Members would be ac-
companied by their families, and
thus the experience would be
unique and most enjoyable. The
day which should be selected for
these meetings is June 20, 1904,
this being West Virginia Day at
the Worlds Fair, when Governor
White and other State officials
and many prominent West Vir-
ginians will be on hand to see
that the Little Mountain State
