HOCH-STUBBS OPPOSE.
Don't Want State to Invest in Oil
Refinery.

There does not seem to be much
show for a state oil refinery bill.
Speaker Stubbs and Governor Hoch
have both lined up against the appro-
priation of 100000 for the purpose of
establishing the refinery, because they
are set on making record for
! ECONOMY and they are said to have
certain schemes of their own which
will eat up all the money which the
state can afford to spend.
Governor Hoch is not quite as rad
ical in the matter as is Speaker Stubbs.
Stubbs says he is against the refinery
proposition from start to finish Hoeh
is willing the state should spend $25.-
900 or $4,000 in experimenting, to
find out whether or not the refinery
can be made to pay. Stubbs thinks,
the Standard Oil company is to reg
ulate the railroads.
Tt is rather d remarkable coincldent
that Stubbs and Hoch both announced
posed state refinery ON the same day
that the Standard Oil lobby commenced
to get in its work at the legislature.
The Standard Oil people have placed
several people on the ground to work

Before taking any action, the house

they expect to investigate remains to
for them, and may induce the house to
adjourn this afternoon until Monday.

And knocked the props from underneath

And every other blessing
Came to the fellow who was prompt
About hts morning dressing.
But now the scientist declares
That theory wns but guessing.

With noxious gases seethfns,
Not f1t for folks particular

In sweet and placid snoring

On hand TO be deplorins,
But wflI the waste OF yesterday
Be rapidly restoring.
Then hall the man who knocked great
holes
In this old superstition!
Like Caesars wife, this scientist
Ia quite above suspicion.
Wen sleep until the sun is high
Now that we have permission.

BLIZZARDCALWELL DECISIO

The Wheeling News, In speak
ing of the Blizzard Caldwell de-
cision, expresses itself in the fol-
lowing out-spoken manner:
The United States district court
has through a mantle of protec-
ton around Reese Blizzard and
Charles r. Caldwell, and these
two gentlemen will not have to
testify before the committee ap-
pointed by the legislature to in
vestigate the charges made against
Governor White.
Although the claim of the two
gentlemen has been legally upheld
their position is not an eviable
one. The public will have its own
opinion about men who fear to
appear before an impartial legis-
lative body, and make good their
accusations, It is not a very
brave man who will hide behind
a technical legal proceeding when
called upon to make good his
word, and the people generally
remember that type of man in the
future.
In the case of Caldwell there
is only one conclusion to draw
from his refusal to obey sum-
mons to testify before the COM
mittee, a summons any honest
man would have been prompt to
answer, and that is he lied when
he made his charges against Gov
ernor White.

PATRIOTISM.

An effort is being made to in

city to prohibit the shooting of
fire arms and fire crackers on the
streets between now and the
Fourth of July. This movement,
in which a number of expressmen
and owners of horses are taking
part, is aimed at the persons who
begin the celebration of the
Fourth some time in June. These
enthusiasts ought to be restrain

kind on the streets is a danger

can be properly confined to the

everybody is prepared for the ex-

deserve no more consideration in
this matter than anybody else.
