under the present system. as II seems to
rest more heavily on land owners than any
other people. The profits derived from
farming In West Virginia are much less
now than years past, as the soil is growing
thinner and thinner, requiring greater
amount OF fertilizer each year TO raise any
thing. Now add to this an increase in
taxes and other necessary expenses. and
we would like to hear from the man that
can show profit OF six per cent on the val.

details of the splendid reception ac-
corded to the first American mission
on its arrival at the ancient Moorish
capital for the purpose of permitting

because he considered the minister to
be his personal friend.
The reception was followed by BAN
quets and fetes at which the chief

Many of the ceremonies gave the Amer

quaint Oriental customs in the MorOc :

matte relations between the United

Pat McCarren of Brooklyn Bites His
Thumb at New York Demo

New York, Nov. fitzpatrick H. Nc
Carren, the Brooklyn Democratic lead
er whose membership in the Demo-
cratic state committee is questioned as
a result of a resolution to investigate
his conduct during the recent election
which was adopted by the state COM
mittee yesterday, declared today that
the state committee is without power
to depOse him or any other member.
and that he will take the matter into
the courts If necessary to prevent such
action. McCarren contends that a DEM
ocTatic state convention is the only
body which has the power to remove
a committee member.
The state committee is a creature
of the state convention, and in itself
has no standing in court he said.
If the committee should adopt res
olution expelling me from membership
would carry the matter into the courts
at once Ard the courts would not
sustain its action for a minute
