Matters are running so smoothly at
Charleston that they are noiseless. We
presume they are kept we'll oiled.

Thomas w. I.awson's article in
Everybody's magazine a short time
ago, giving the particulars of the pur-
chase oflthe Massachusetts Legislature
by the corporations interested in GER
tain schemes for roboing the people.
was a startling revelation to the
masses and has caused much profound
thought. From reports brought by
persons who have been in our own
state capital since our legislature has
been in session and mingling among
our statesmen, conditions there car
be but little better than those de-
scribed by Mr. Lawson as existing in
the Bay state A gentleman just from
Charleston said: The corporations
own the West Virginia legislature
and there is no hope Of any legisla-
ton being enacted inimioal to the in
terests OF the corp orations no matter
how the interests of the people may
suffer.
The letter exposed last week, writ
ten by United States Marshall Charles
D Elliott to an officer of the Standard
Oil Company, bears out this report
Elliott is about the most potent meiR
Der Of the third house. He has been
for years, a professional lobbyist, al
way in the interest of anybody whose
sch enc he has found to his interest.
He knows how to manipulate legis-
lature as few men do and the Stand
ard Oil always employs the best tai
ent.
The worst feature of the expose is
the part Governor-elect Dawson and
other members of the administration
elect pay in the matter Senator Corn
we'll in his campaign charged tn at
Dawson and his crew had sold out to
Standard Oil for a campaign contri-
button and this letter confirms that
charge. When the highest officers of
the state prostitute their offices by
selling out the people to such gigan-
tic robbers as the Stadnard Oil and 60
unpublished our government is only a
part of the machine to rob the peo-
pie.
The people of the state expect the
investigating committee to slit the
matter thoroughly. There must be no
white washing, or lodging but, open
earnest and honest investig CATION. Let
no guilty man escape. If these public
officials are guilty it is great shame
and disgrace to the state and ifthey
are innocent they should have
speedy exoneration.

BLACK HAND IN WEST VIRGINIA

Fearing the vengeance of black

his door about week ago bearing
this warning; Leave $50 on the syc-
amore stump at the foot of Prices
Hill before 10 o clock or your horses
will be killed. " Muncey did not take
the warning seriously. Two days later
he found his fine farm horses dead.
One week later he found another
card on his door post. This time $500
was wanted, and he was informed
that unless it was forthcoming with
in "a hours his home and barn would
be destroyed. At last realizing that
the situation was becoming critical,
the farmer hired guards to keep watch
over his barn for a week. At the end
Of the time he decided that the black
mailers had given up the thought OF
wrecking further vengeance, and took
the guards away. That night his
large barn was burned to the ground.
Since the burning of his barn Mum

the blackmailers ihwhich they said
that if $500 is not left by him in the

IF we understood the character Of
President Roosevelt he is an unrelent-
ing fighter in any cause which he
may cspouse. He seems. TO be in dead
earnest in urging congress to enact
some law to regulate fright rates.
This is boarding the lion in his den.
There are not few Of the big trusts
that have been built up by the dis
eliminating fright rates granted them
by the railroads and are still en-
ioying that advantage. They are not
gong to give up this scheme without
a hard struggle. The trusts are boss
at the capitol in Washington as they
are at most state capitols and con
gress will find it too hard to serve two
two masters, the President ard the
trusts.
Senators Aldrich aud Elkins, the
most prominent representatives of the
trusts interests are already showing
their teeth and showing every evil
dence OF terrible resistance. 1t now
seems almost certain that the Presi.
dent will call special session of con-
gress in the spring or early summer
20 consider the matter which seems
uppermost in his mind. When thar
time comes we may expect to witnes
one of the greatest battles ever known
between the executives and legisla-
tive departments of our government,
and we predict that the President will
come out loser. The President and
his party have dallied too long WITH
the trusts. They have slept until the
bands have been placed upon their
hands and feet.
