It il q matter of large interest what 10 to
be the attitude Of certain powerful epecu-
lative clique on any further advance from
this level The stocks in which this clique
"a most largely interested are Union Pacific
and Amalgamated Copper. So far as can be
seen tho members of the clique have Ia ken
no part In tho rise In Union Pacific sinoo 1t
crossed $50. Last winter they dominated
the market In it. They made large reductions
IN their speculative holdings Of Union Pacific
after 1t crossed l3o in the winter. and they
were able to recover their stock on the de-
cline to i15. While they are bullih on the
general outlook they are not active In sp .cu-
iation. Their attitude toward the immt diate
market is ono OF extreme conservatism.

THAD TROY
WILL MANAGE LOCAL BASEBALL
TEAM NEXT YEAR-oFFiclAL
ANN ouNCEMENT MADE.

1t is officially announced by the Off.
GERS Of the Baseball Association that
Thad Troy will manage the local team
next season. A firm, heady, capable
manager has been needed in Fair.
mont and in Troy it seems that the
right man has been found. He has
been playing professional ball since
most of us can remember. Still he is
in his prime to-day and at the height
Of his usefulness. He joined the
Springfield team during the latter
part of the Central League season
and proved to be SO valuable man
that he was signed for the coming
year but does not wish to play at that
place hence his decision to come to
Fairmont. Springfield fans claim he
is the best outtielder in the organiza.
ton.
Also 1t is claimed that the follow.
ing men will wear Fairmont uniforms
next year: GAMER in middle, Allen at
second, with Wharton and Livingston,
provided the latter does not make
good at Cincinnati, doing the back.
stop work. The signing OF Wharton
may be all right but he certainly will
have to show a different form from
that displayed during the season just
closed. He was vastly disappointing
with the majority of the fans. Also
the pitchers all but refused to pitch TO
him yet he was kept on the team. In
Livingston the club will have the bes.
man obtainable and for the sake of
the game in this city it is to be hoped
that he does not make good in Cincin-
natl.

AS TO POLITICS.

The Democrats OF this county have
given the Republicans many lessons
in practical politics, but the latter
never profited by them. 1t was no
fault Of the West virginian though
that they did not profit by them. The
Democracy had control Of the county
for over twenty years and did not stop
at anything to keep in control. II they
could not win In elections they did so
directly afterwards by, entering the
Courthouse vaults and changing the
ballots. They usually won at the
polls, however, by using their machin.
cry for all It was worth. Near the end
OF their career as the dominant party
they organized the ignorant foreigners
into repeating bands and won in that
way.
No one was licensed to sell liquor in
our town or county unless he was
Democrat or a Republican they could
use. AT one time no Republican could
obtain license in Fairmont. One
lone Democrat was given a monopoly

In1ss1, the moment they came into
full power. their county court passed
an order requiring that no printing
for the county should be paid for ex.
cept that which came from the Demo.
cratic Index Office. They resorted to
anything and everything to crush and
drive out all opposition. They would
be in power to-day probably IL they
had not been so corrupt as to fall out
among themselves.
The Republicans could strengthen
their hold on the county by adopting
some of their tactics. but they do not
seem disposed to do so. They could
remain in power much longer thar
they are likely to II they would adopt
the Democratic way of running the
liquor business-put none but Repub
licans on guard-starve out the fel
lows who are not with us and for us
The Democrats could not object te
this. 1t is their own kind of medicine
But we haven't any idea that on,
present officials will act in the man
ner above indicated. For instance, we
have a solid Republican council-ter
members-and yet they cannot con
trol the printing of the city. They are
too timid to ask that it be given tc
their party organ. And by the way
the party organ begins TO feel toward
the city administration as it does to-
ward the Board of Education of this
independent district. 1t feels that II
isn't worth while to work for the sue

they are elected the Democrats are
