pose-economizing for the common

ernor on the proposition OF walking.

life familiarizing myself with country
roads, while the Governor was rid

like Gov. Dawson, which will be in
the interest of the poor people, but
the buHions and corns which l have
gathered up in my walking expedi.
tions cannot be removed by the new
tax laws. They have come TO stay.
Gov. Dawson is asking too much
when he requires me to offer myself
up as a martyr to prove my undying
faith in the new tax laws. He must
remember that the mules name was

l see my old comrade, Jimmy
Johnson, is writing some very IN
teresling articles on his southern
prison life. Comrade Johnson was
one of the boys who ventured too
close the Johnny dead line. Com.
rade Lee Shaw and myself often
cautioned him to keep a safe dis
tance from the Johnny line. But
he was young and determined to
crown himself with glory, which
was the spirit of patriotism, but it
lost him his hard tack and beans,
and as result he was compelled to
follow the example of Ben Butler
at New Orleans, and hook few
silver spoons to raise a grub stake.
But the world has justified him for
making a dive for the spoons, which
produced such an excellent crop Of
sweet potatoes. When he returned
home he wrote that soul-surring
couplet, which has been the admir-.
alton of all those who have been
sweet potato hungry
"Hail Columbia, happy land,
Sweet potatoes grow in sand"

some time ago, to re.organize the
Commission on different lines and
place in the impo rtant positions
men of energy and executive ability.
Thus far the President has selected
Judge Charles +. Magoon of Neb-
raska, now law officer of Bureau OF
lnsular affairs for Governor OF the
Canal Zone. Judge Magoon. who
will also thus become a member of
the new Commission, will also act
as United States Minister TO Pana-
ma Chief Engineer Wallace, who
has all along had charge of the en-.
gineering work OF the canal, will
also become member of the Com
mission and present indications
are that Theodore p. Shonts, Presi-
of the Glover Leaf Railroad, will
be appointed chairman Of the Com
mission. The President is exercis-
ing the utmost care in the selection
of the new Commission. He is far
from satisfied with the work of those
which has just resigned, although
he appreciates that it has lsborsd
under some grave disadvantages,
and he hopes now greatly 70 ex-
pedite the work of constructing the
canal by the selection of men pre-
eminently 6t to conduct the work.
The President will leave Wash.
ington on his southern and western
trip today and will go directly to
San Antonio where the reunion of
the Rough Riders Is to occur, on
April 7. He will come north and
his private car will be switched on
to side track somewhere in Colo
RADIO, the President will shoulder
his gun and set out for game re-
gion which has been recommended
to him as containing quarry we'll
worthy OF his prowess in the hunt
ing line. 1t is noteworthy that the
President constantly and invariably
refuses invitations to shoot birds,
although that is practically the only
game to he found in the vicinity Of
Washington. He holds that it is
unmanly to shoot birds, as com
pared with big game, and his con-
sistent adherence to this policy
costs him many pleasant outings.
In this connection, il may be inter
esting to learn that there are numer-
Gus squirrels, an old rain crow, a
jack rabbit and numerous wood
chucks which make the te
House grounds t h cir permanent
home and which are so tame that
one can approach them quite close
ly. When the snow is on the ground
the Roosevelt children scatter food
daily for these little animals and for
their fealhered friends of which
there is a great variety. Two cats
are at the White House but they are
sleek and we'll fed that it is doubt
full il they ever have sufficient ardor
TO molest the birds and It is an every
day sight at this season to see
robins about the window sills Of the
Presidents office.

MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY.
A Correspondent CrltiCiSeS the Coal
Companies for Bringing COOnS
TO Work their Mines.
Special to Tho Argus.


With the Inauguration of the
President after the vain pomp and
glory of this time-worn and seem.
ingly extravagant ceremony has once
more passed by us like many other
joys and SORROWS of life, and the
staid and uncompromising old world
has apparently settled down to busi-
ness for another four years. The
workingman who shouted himself
hoarsc at the last election, begins
TO grope around him in the gather
ing darkness which seems to cover
our fair land like pail TO see IL he
can find anything Of that full "din-
ner pail" which has been promised
to him lo these many moons, but
we are sorry TO say that like Rach-
aePs children, alas, they are not, on
the contrary he is forced to sit idly
by and see his place in tho mines or
factory filled with the ignorant south
ern darkey and the low down white
who by constant contact and daily
association with the colored race
soon drops down the moral and in
tellectual scale below that Of the
average darkeyj as an illustration
we, the writer had occasion to call
upon a white man out at Irona mines
a few days ago, we were told TO
come in by the lady of the house (if
such you chose to call herr, she was
seated in rocking-chair merrily
rocking child to sleep. Snuff was
oozing out Of each corner of her
mouth while dirt and the same am
Der fluid covered the floor. While
near by her sat a gentleman Of col
or decked out in all the gorgeous
habiliment characteristic of his race,
evidently trying to console her dur
ing her husbands absence. This
dear readers is the class OF people
that the coal trusts arc forcing in
and upon the good people of West
Virginia while the better class of in
telligent workingmen, those who adj
vocate fair wages sobriety and de-
cency, must come down to the same
standard of parsonage and pauper
wages or go way back and sit down.
Meanwhile the corporations contin-
ue their work of ACCESSION black
and white are the same to them and
if their brand of politics are OK
and the colored brother usually has
but one brand, all is well. What
care they for suffering and deprayed
humanity What matters il to them
as long as they can have cheap la.
Dor they are not concerning them
selves much about social conditions
and rarely condescend to save the
dear country Of tener than once in
four years. 1t is gold dear reader.
Even Heaven is forgotten in their
greed for gold. Will the working
man never get his eyes open to this
condition Of affairs and vote intelli-
gently instead Of being biased by
party traditions which have long
since become obsolete. New con-
ditions and new problems arc daily
confronting us and the most serious
one that now confronts the intelli-
gent citizens of this State is the
driving out Of its Intelligent work
ingmen by the coal companies and
supplanting them with the ignorent
and yiscous which continually fiji
our jails an institutions Of charity
and become a burden to the tax
payers. LONE STAR.
