The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1904-09-02

Have you ever thought of the fact
that the Republican majority in West
Virginia was only a little less than ten
per cent. OF. the total vote cast in the
State in 1900? Do you realize that in
every bunch of ten Republicans one
would have to be a bOlter in order
for Democracy to win in West Vir-
ginia, and that by the skin of the
teeth? Is it not clear that nothing
short of a political landslide would
throw West Virginia into the Demo
cratic column? Can any n point to
a single indication of such a political
revolution? The more n questions
himself honestly and conscientiously,
the less he sees in the fuss n blus-
ter about the Democrats carrying
West Virginia.

BIG ENTERPRISES COST MONEY

Senator Davis, taking his cue from
the New York World and other Demo
cratic papers. made the attempt to
show that the administration of Pres.
ident Roosevelt had been e~xtravagant
in the extreme and that our eXpendi-
lures per capita We're greater than at
any previous period. It is true that
Mr.. Davis did present a table showing
that our present e capita eXpendi-
lures are greater than at certain pre-
vious years which he used in compari-
son. 1t would be very easy, however,
to select other years, and many of
them, too, in which our per capita ex-
pelditures largely exceeded those of
the past year under President Roose-
welt. 1t must be remembered, how
ever. that the executive does not make
the appropriations. They are made by
the Congress, and the executive has
no alternative but to carry out the
laws as enacted, whether they be ex-
t~ravaSant or otherwise. he fact is,
however, that, all things considered,
Il present expenditures are exceed
ingly moderate.
Without discussing the question OF
imperialism, we have on our hands the
Philippines, which must be guarded
and protected at whatever cost. We
rank among the foremost nations Of
the earth, and every loyal patriot is
DESTROYS that our navy should be OF
UGH proportions as to carry with it
peace, because we are prepared for
war.
The Inauguration of the Panama
canal, towards which we have already
appropriated fifty millions of dollars,
is another expenditure that no loyal
American regrets. Our rural free de
livery service, for which the last year
we appropriated over twenty millions
of dollars, is another additional ex-
pense not known to previous admins
trations.
Large responsibilities carry with
them large expenditures, but it may
be added that the American people are
being X to-day at any greater
rate per capita than has beer the case
for many years n during many lee
AIDES Of our previous history.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Sept. 2.-Jo-

Board of Arbitration. succeeded in
GLIDING the reporters yesterday and
went to Pittsburg, where he held a
conference with a. w. Jencks on the
matter of arbitration.
When he returned to this city he
was more hopeful than he had been
that something might be done toward
securing mediation.
Mr.. Jencks, head of the American
Steel Hoop Company, is expected to
arrive in this city some time to-day,
when a final decision will be made on
the subject of arbitration.

is a hard job" said Mr.. Bishop.
Officials of the company are claim

there are not one hundred. Twenty
seven more were imported from
Sharpsburg yesterday afternoon, but
three of them left almost as soon as
they got into the mill.

Daily conditions and human strength
do not make it possible.
Concentration always pays, partic-

morning and evening edition of a
newspaper as ne would by concentrate
ing all the forces at his disposal on
the one or the other.
When a thing is right, that partic-

DEMOCRATS AND MlLlTARlSM.

Mr.. Walter NJ. Chandler, of New
believe that the Democratic conven-
ton Inconsistencies ugu a sane and
safe administration by that party,
made a speech before the Roosevelt
and Fairbanks Commercial League in
which he drew two pictures, in words
one of Grove Cleveland and he
other Of Theodore Roosevelt. We
give them below and they are worth
reading, especially by the old SOL
diers:
"Out of decency the Democrats
ought to hesitate to charge militarism
against any Presidential candidate.
Fifty years ago the Civil Wal ragged,
and a strong young man, vigorous, I'M
married, without home ties, unen-
gagged in civil administration, sent a
substitute to the front rather than go
himself. Those four years he re-
NAMED a spectator, a reader of the
bulletins of brave mems deeds.
Six years ago another war confront
ed the country. y young MAI OF fam
lily, married, with a civil administra-
tive position that, particularly in war,
would assure him II and glory
without personal danger, bade his fam
lily farewell, resigned his high place,
and went bravely to the front as lieu
tenant colonel IF Rough Riders.
What a contrast! In those short
months of war Roosevelt carved an
honorable and enduring fame. While
Grover Cleveland lives the Democrats
should never object to a military Pres
ident. Democrats are eve at logger
heads with history and fact"
