The Clarksburg telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1874-1926, 1906-12-13

On this subject the Fairmont
Times has offered some good points:
One of the very commendable
present public movements has for It's
object the education of the people
on the subject Of earlier Christmas
shopping. The principal object is to
prevent the overworking Of sales
people. which generally spoils their
endowment Of the mid-winter hoii-
DAYS. and frequently results in NJ
ness or permanent impairment Of
health. 1t is one season Of the year
when everybody should have consid-
Grafton for those who are oTerwork-
d. and the young ladies behind the
couurers are surely entitled to such
consideration. But there is another
reason which should appeal to the
selfish and iaconsiderate. II is the
fact hiatt shopping early in the day
and early in the season is more adj
outrageous to them. Better facili-
ties are afforded for examination Of
merchandise when the stores are no;
crowded, and clerks and salespeople
have more time then to devote to
customers. There is in fact not =
single good reason for eleventh houI
shopping"

Buy Your Presents Now.

The holiday shopping in Clarks-
burg is now on in earnest. Every
store in the city is crowded with
people who are selecting the presents
they will give to the members of
their family and their friends at this
great annual festival in which the
gift of presents is principal feat
ure. These crowds will gradually
swell day by day until in the last
days the stores will be jammed. The
Telegram has several times called
attention to the fact that early
shopping is the most advisable and
practical thing to do. We all have
to buy presents; there's no getting
around that fact. Some have to get
a few and Others have to get many
but we all have to buy something.
The one who does not give a pres
ent at this happy season of the year
surely must be selfish and misery
being. It will be to the advantage
Of every one to shop early. Not only
win the rush and jam be avoided but
there win be a larger selection to
chose from

Another Democratic idol has fal-
len It is United States Senator
Bailey, Of Texas. Documentary evi-
dence has been produced by Attor-
ney General Davidson, Of that State,
showing that Bailey within the past
few years has received large sums Of
money from the standard on Com
pany for services in its evasion Of
the laws of the land. Thus. is he
now properly classified with Burton
and ought to be serving time. In
stead OF being in the United States
senate. And. to think too that this
great Democratic leader went abroad
in the land denouncing trusts with
the bitterness of Democratic dema-
gogue. But. Bailey is not the only
one. There are Others high and low
that do the same thing, but have not
yet been found out so much as he

doubt some action would be wise. it
should be intelligent and worth the

Peace WIN Prevail.

AS some Of the papers Of West vir-
GINA claim there is really no reason
why the organization Of the next
legislature can not be accomplished
IN peace and perfect harmony, or at
least with but little dissention or
misunderstanding. The situation, ii
is believed, is different from what it
was two years ago. The ..Insur-
gents" as the disturbing or dis
senting faction was then styled are
not in the ascendency in the senate
as they were then. The recent cleo
ton demonstrated the fact that there
was not so much factionalism in the
party as there was two years ago,
and the effect OF the election is thai
mostly men in accord with the
state administration were commits
stoned to represent the people.
There were but few. if any. elected
who will antagonize the policies OF
the party as promulgated by the ad-
ministration and the several party
leaders.
Also. the hold-overs in the senate
are not as body antagonistic TO the
administration and the party's poll
cies. Even the spirit of supporting
the administration spread 10 the
Democrats in the last campaign and
the few Democrats who we're elected
to the legislature have some among
them who are pledged by campaign
Entrances to support the policies Of
he state administration.
Other features showing that there
need be no alarm on the part of some
newspapers in this state, concerning
the organization of the legislature
might be related here, but that seems
wholly unnecessary. as the coming
legislature and the state administra-
ton will assuredly be in accord on
all matters affecting the public vel
fare.

The genuine sort of self sacrifice
and heroism was displayed by those
students of Cornell University who
found death and terrible injury in
trying to save their unfortunate fell
low students from the fire which de
stroyed the frat" house of the Chi
Psi fraternity. These qualities are
characteristic of American young
men and while deploring the ugly
IRE which destroyed the finest col
lege fraternity house in the country
and cost seven lives it is refreshing
to know that they were not lacking
at Cornell even in the face of such
disaster.

BeIated discoveries have been
made by Democratic papers that re
forms have been pushed by the ma
tional administration. Had these
discoveries come before the recent
election. they would have been Sc
we're shocks to those newspapers.
At least they would not have public
ly admitted these reforms, for the
reason that the admission would
have placed the Democratic party in
an even deeper hole.

Mary Twain, the great American
humorist and author. startled lobby
lists and legislators at the national
capital the other day by appearing
in a cream-colored summer flannel
suit with hat and other things to
match. He said mems clothing is
absurd, ungraceful and comfort
able and that they ought to be al
lowed to wear frills and other things
in color more like the women. Poor
man has hard enough time buying
his own absurd and ungraceful
clothes after footing up the women's
bills. Mr.. Clemens must use new
kind of arithmetic to figure out how
man can buy clothes for himself like
women.

The storer Incident.


From the long articles printed in
the daily newspapers the last few
days it appears that the Bellamy
storers have stepped into very en-
barrassing puddle. The former am
bassador to Austria-Hungary claims
that he was summarily dismissed by
President Roosevelt simply because
he carried out the instructions of the
President in making diplomatic over
lures at the vatican in Rome for the
advancement Of Archbishop Ireland.
President Roosevelt's published
statement contained correspondence
between the storers and himself con-
cIusively shows that in MS official
acts as President he absolutely re-
fused TO countenance any official ac-
ton on the part of either himself
or the Storers in efforts TO cause the
archbishop's advancement. What
ever his private opinion on the sub
ject was has absolutely nothing to
do with the official acts of the Ameri-
can ambassador or the President of
the United States. They are in that
capacity public servants Of the
American government and are re-
CURED to and should only do those
things in conformity with the Of
fetal policy and the national laws.
1t appears from what has been
published on both sides of this aues-
ton that Roosevelt repeatedly asked
and urged Storer not to NEEDLE with
the archbishop matter and that Stor-
er did go ahead and confer in seem
ingly official manner with the Pope
directly as the written communica-
lions show he was instructed not to
It also appears that the President
was doing the right thing in sum
marily removing Storer for his ac-
lions. And it also appears that Mr..
Storer was doing entirely 100 much
nibbing into the affairs of state en-
trusted TO her husband. While she
or any other woman may have been
able and brilliant enough to do ex-
traordinary diplomatic work, it was
not her call to have anything to do
with the matter.
All this controversy has been call
ed to the attention of the members
of the Presidents cabinet and COM
mittees of Congress. but it seems
that there is only one thing that the
officers of the government can do in
the premises and that is to uphold
the actions of President Roosevelt
in the affair. AS President Roose-
welt so strongly ana emphatically
writes in his letters relating to the
affair, the United States government
ought not to take sides in any
ecclesiastical movement, whether
Catholic or Protestant. Jewish or
Gentle, Atheist or Heather only In
sofar as it specifically relates to some
official affair pertaining to the gov
eminent of the United States.

Congressman Harry woodward
may have acted wisely to postpone
the appointment of postmaster at
Parkersburg until after the election,
but delays now are dangerous. The
subject has been fully considered
and the applicants do not care to be
running of to Washington every few
days. as it costs these days to travel.
Still, Postmaster Gibbons may not
mind 1t much.

Football Rules.

Now. that several high schools
have organized in this section of the
State for the publication of athletics
especially football, it is not amiss tc
repeat here suggestions to the gen,
eral committee of American football
rules, as follows:
The substitution of a ffteen-yard
penalty for the loss of the ball when
a forward pass hits the ground.
The abolition of two forward pass
es from center in the forward pass
The allowing of two forward pass,
es in one scrimmage Il the first does
not cross the line of scrimmage.
No INCREASE in the number OF
downs in which to make ten yards.
The exchanging of positions be-
tween the linemen and backs. pro-
viding that such a shift does not
produce mass plays.
The abolition of the rule prohibit
ing tackling below the knees.
The keeping Of FIVE men on the
side line three yards from the grid
iron.
The increase of the time of play
to thirty-five minute halves and the
taking of time for distance penalties.
The discard of the second umpire.
The framing of a rule protecting
the player catching punt.
The giving of the control of the
progress and condition of the ball to
the referee and the directing of the
umpire to look after the plays alone.
The suggestions as made may al
ready have been adopted by the or
ganization, or at least considered.
hut as the rules to govern the or
ganization have not yet been made
public, it is not out of the province
of newspaper to bring these sug-
gestions to the organization. The
organization is quite capable Of de-
Gliding whether they are good or not.

The state corporation law in vir-
ginia has been declared constitution
al by the supreme court of that
State. notwithstanding the fact that
the proposition was bitterly denied
by the railroads. Now. that it has
been declared good. such a law
should be passed in West Virginia.
At least a law that deals with rail-
roads should be enacted. Perhaps,
it should be wider in Its scope and
cover all public service corporations.
In this respect the question is one
that needs thorough Investigation
and no hasty conclusion. However.
SO far as the creation of railroad
commission is concerned, there is no
longer any doubt as to that being
the proper thing to do. Possibly.
the only feature Of that to think
about Is a list Of the proper duties
Of such a commission. but the list
