LETTER FROM WEST VIRGINIA.

RIDGEWAY, BERKELEY COUNTY, w. VA, 81
October 10th, 1904. u
Editors Union: 1T affords me great pleasure
to be able to say that since have been in tn
Valley of Virginia my health has improved. Il
am greatly indebted to you for the copy of you'll
paper 1 receive weekly, for 1t gives me greaN
pleasure to read THE UNION, as it furnishes me-
with all the news of my old county of Baltimore.
The farmers in this section have finished cut
ting corn and some are done seeding, although
there are those who have not yet commenced
the latter work because of their fear of the fly
it being it so dry.
The wheat harvest the past season averaged
about 10 bushels per acre, yet there were those
who secured as much as 20 to rs bushels, while
the crop of others yielded but from to bush
els. Altogether the yield hardly reached what
the farmers here claim is half crop.
The corn will doubtless yield more than arS
average crop, and it appears from the vast field
of corn see in driving around the number
acres is larger than usually planted in this par
of the country.
1 have been informed the hay crop was the
largest that has been saved here for some time.
The farmers generally are feeding more cat
tie for market this fall than ever before, but
because of the shortness of the pasturage they
are compelled to furnish other food.
have been in this section several times before
but never have seen 80 many hogs. 1t appears
that every farmer has large drove of them and
at nearly every house one passes can be seen
from 2 to IL hogs.
Apples, peaches, pears, plums, damsons and
grapes are found here in great abundance.
A few days ago man visited this locality and
bought number of colts ranging in age from
one year and older for which he paid $50 per
head and upwards.
Land for agricultural purposes has greatly ad-
vanced in value in recent years and good farms
are In demand. Taxing it as whole this
part Of the State is rapidly improving and the
young generation is alive to the many opportuT
mites and natural advantages afforded. They
are as good and kind hearted class of people as
can be found in the United States SELDOM a

CLEVELAND AND BRYAN.

Ex-Governor David B. Hill, at the great
Democratic meeting in Baltimore last Monday
night, and more than once on the spell-bind-
ing tour through Maryland and West. YirGjpia
didate Davis congratulated his hearers that
the platform which was supported by Grover
Cleveland and William ]. Bryan was good
enough for plain man of the rank and file,
such as himself.
1t is all very we'll to conjure with the names
of these two apostles of modern Democracy,
but it would be difficult indeed to find men
whose ideas, principles and methods are more
at variance, and, as has been well said, it is
doubtful whether at bottom either of them
is as much opposed to the Republican party as
they are to each other.
IF by the faulty of the American people the
Democratic party should come intopower again
this year as it did under the pressure of a cam
paign of false pretenses in 1892, the two wings
would refuse utterly to flop together and there
would be a repetition of the experiences of 1913
to '97, when Mr.. Cleveland was the most I'M
popular man in his party. Imagine Judge
Parker President with Mr.. Hill-as he GER
tainly would be-the power behind the throne
and the manipulation of the wires. The pic
ture would be complete with Mr.. Bryan in the
Senate, eager to revive his old theories and
schemes-"the things he always believed in
and in which he still beives." as he says him
self-and Mr.. Cleveland denouncing both with
the thunders of his elephantine eloquence.
And yet this is just what would happen, as it
needs no prophet to foretell. The effect upon
the country and upon industries and finances
may be calculated by any intelligent mortal.
The DEMOCRATIC newspapers few weeks
ago we're jnbilant over their alleged expecta-
ton of majority in Congress whether Parker
was elected or defeated. If this belief was
genuine-which it probably was MOTT has
faded away. Witness the following special
dispatch from Washington in late issue Of
the Baltimore Nescs. 1t is headed Its Speak
ers' Bureau Falls and says: 1.-The Demo-
cratic Congressional Campaign Committee is
taking smaller and smaller part in the con-
test Its independent speakers bureau has
proved failure. While the committee here
is diligently sending out literature and is &C.
complishing as much in this line as is possible
with its limited force, no very strenuous fight is
being made here for the capture Of the House.
Neither is any such fight being made in Ne~ York.
Democratic Congressman will. be obliged large
ly to make their own fights, relying upon per-
sonal efforts and the.help of friends to pull
them through"

SUSTAIN THE WELL TRIED POLICIES.

That politics is related to legislation and
legislation to the material welfare of the citizen
is being recognized by the people, as their
votes show, to greater degree in every election.
Thoughtful men no longer permit themselves
to be the passive sppanage Of a political organ
ization. They ask, first what does the organ
ization stands for and what is it going to do
when 1t gets into power and obtains control OF
the machinery of the Government?
Thus, in 1896, men who had been Demo
Gratis all their lives-and their fathers before
them-awoke to the fact that the political or
ganization they loved was proposing course
which, if carried out, would work to the in
jury of the material welfare Of the country.
On the other hand they saw party which they
had been taught to oppose standing for what
they knew to be the best interests of the people
at large. They left their old alignment and
ranged themselves with the organization which
promised, and which indeed ultimately
brought about through wise legislation, pro-
lection to the business. interests of the land.
Again, in subsequent elections, when once
it was question of party organization against
principles which their judgment affirmed, they
still kept away fromfhe old party and voted
with their new friends.
The conditions are similar in this election
The Democratic party is standing for its old
ideals and aims it has not changed whit
except to be little less confident and assured
Of its position and little less clear on what it
really does believe in.
How is it with the Republicans They
- -
icies-not new ones-but policies that have
been tried and that have been found to work
admirably. The Republicans ask their friends
and allies in fights where the battlecry has
of protection and sound money, of wise legisla-
ton along many important lines and to elect a
Republican House of Representatives as well
as Republican President that the good work
may continue uninterrupted

On "WEDNESDAY last Governor Warfield
signed the commissions of Hon. David Fowler
as Chief Judge, and Hon. N. Charles Burke,
as Associate Judge of the Third Judicial Dis
trict of Maryland These commissions were
issued because the term of Office for which
each of the judges was elected will expire be-
fore the next general election, and the Gov
ernor commissioned them until their success
sors are duly elected and qualified in November,
1905. In this connection it is stated that both
Judge Fowler and Judge Burke are candidates
for reelection.

ASA Bavarian electrician, Hugo Helberger,
was experimenting on the drying of an ingot.
mold in the ground by means of the electric
current he noticed that worms issued from the
ground nearby, writhing as if in pain and
seeming to be in a great hurry to get away.
Following this up he has devised au appara-
tus to rid soil of worms and noxious insects,
by means of which, by planting numerous
brass electrodes in the earth at proper inter-
vals he has succeeded in driving all crawling
things from considerable space in very brief
time. So with mechanical destroyers on one
hand, and the introduction of parasites on the
other, the farmer may have happy time after
while in spite of the fact that the natural de-
stroyers of insect pests, the pretty song birds,
are being shot from earth to adorn Fashions
hat and very ugly one at that.
