PRAYERS for West VIRGINIA.

The staid old Grecnbrier Independent,
one OF the most respectable newspapers
III tho two virginlas, Is shocked hey ond

made by The Fairmont West viiglnlnn,
n Republican weekly, that Governor
Dawson, while chairman Of tho West
Virginia Republican Committee IN 1900,
gave a certain man money to use on
tho 1Ianawhn county court in order to
induce it to appoint men as election
commissioners. Tho Republican weekly
caracterizes the charge as trivial, and
says 1t was no more than other county
chalrmcn Of both parties fhad DONE 81
Tho Greenbrier Independent says tho
admission is tho most astonishing that
ever appeared in West Virginia pnpsr
claiming responsibility, and adds, In
the name Of heaven, what are NO COM
ing to when newspaper, supposed To-
be respectable, publicly announces such.
H. sentiment. God save the state
The prayer should be joined In BY
every patriotic West Virglnln. We hope
they are not growing as scarce as the
editorial quoted by the Independent wouli
indicate. Nevertheless, West Virginia
would appear to need some good, hard
praying, as we'll as the earnest labors Of
those who love their state and would
raise It's standard Of politics at least
as high as Philadelphia's.

A Fee for Voting.

CORRESPONDENT suggests that the cost
/. Of tho primary for the hohihatlot' o.
candidates be borne from FUND Great
ed by requiring that every voter pay
thc small fee of ten cents for the priVi-
lere OF casting his ballot In primary
election. i#
n The suggestion is novel. Had every
Democrat who voted in the Virginia pri-
mary this year paid O. dime when ne
denosited his ballot upwards Of SS,C0o
would have been raised to defray the cost
of the election.
The question is, Would the voter be
willing to make a compulsory contrlnu-
zion for the privilege OF expressing his
choice as between candidates for the
nomination? We are in some doubt, but
/. is very probable that a large sum
could be raised in the manner suggested
bv our correspondent. Tho probabilities
are that it would not be a long time
before the candidates would be expected
to pay the fees of intending voters, or
large portion OF them, SO our last estate
would be no better than the first
i There are signs that we are approach
Ing the time when candidates, Of all par
lies for all offices will be required to be
nominated in primary election. In
South Carolina. the candidate for the
office of constable, and all other Of
fees, up to that of govcrnorship, are
required to submit their claims to pri-
mary. Every candidate has to contribute
to the cost OF the election an amount
proportioned to the salary he Will re-
ceive If elected. With every candidate
in the State aiding in bearing tho cost
Of a URINARY there would not be Sc
rious' burden placed on any one OF them.
But no plan yet suggested entirely re-
lieves the candidates of the enormous cost
of clerical hire. railway fare and hotel
