! SAD 'IplsAPPoINTMENT.

The Charleston Gazette is very
much out 81 sorts because the Par.
kersburg Dispatch-News doesn't seem
to be playing into Democratic hands.
1t has said some ugly Things about the
hyphendtad paper and in turn Editor
Smith takes a shot at the Gazette
as follows:
The Charleston Gazette attempts to
get funny about this paper in its
hyphenated shape and tries in its ig-
norant and awkward Democratic way
to figure out whether the Dispatch
swallowed the News Of vice versa. II
even attempts to quote scripture on
the subject which is horrible for a
Democratic journal. Now, II the Ga.
zette knows anything, It should know
that the combination Of the two Par.
kersburg morning papers was made
for purely business reasons, and we
are very glad that the Gazette has
given US an opportunity to say SO
again. 1t was plainly demonstrated
that two morning papers could not ex-
ist in Parkersburg. That as long as
two attempted to live they would make
no money; would merely hang on by
their eye.llds, and could not possibly
be as successful or do as much for the
city and community as one prosper
Gus, successful journal could be. The
Gazette need not worry about the
swallowing" business. We can as
sure it that neither the Dispatch nor
News nor the Dispatch-News has
swallowed anything Democratic, nor
will they ever do SO. Neither will we
ever consult Democratic editor as to
what we shall swallow or not swal,
low. We know what is worrying the
Gazette. 1t imagined in its Democrat
ic ignorance that some condition ex,
listed in newspaper affairs in Parkers'
burg that would eventually benefit
Democracy, and now that it has had
Its stupidity Jared of sufficiently to
realize that it is entitled to another
guess II is mad-not angry, but mad.
Had the Gazette editor read The Dis.
patch.News it would not have made
the unprofessional, unjournalistics in
situations that 1t did. The position
Of this paper has been clearly outlined
so that he who runs may read. That
a Democratic editor should imagine
that there has been some substantial
change In the policy, ideas or beliefs
of the combined papers and that such
4 change has been brought about by
deal for pelf or place is not strange.
Il is a chronic Democratic symptom.
Democrats can conceive Of no higher
motive for any act or contention in
public affairs except what are paid for
in cash or place. This paper will be
responsible for its future without any
assistance from Democratic sources
and without any desire to boast or
any display of egotism we ask the
Gazette to merely wait and see If we
do not assist in making Democratic
hair curl wherever 1t may exist.

Tbeinsurgents now have a new
grievance against Congressman
Martin. They are holding him re-
sponsible for the decision of Judge
Humphrey in the beef trust inves-
tigation. Mr.. Martin introduced
the resolution passed by congress
instructing the bureau of COM
merce and labor to investigate the
beef trust. In this investigation
the packers gave testimony show
ing that they had violated the anti
trust laws, but the judge decided
that this testimony could not be
used in criminal prosecution
against them personally, as they
could not be compelled, under the
constitution, to give testimony in
eliminating themselves. There
fore, while the corporations were
held the individuals composing the
corporations were declared to be
immune. Now the insurgent pa
pers are blaming Mr.. Martin for
ever introducing a resolution ask.
ing for an Investigate on at all. We
suppose that this is on the theory
that inasmuch as we seem to be
unable to punish the offenders it
would have been better if we had
never known that an ofense had
been committed.

Supt. W. L. Robinson is plan
ming to hold but one weeks insti-
tute this year. Prof. Jesse F.
Brumbaugh of Greencastle, Ind !,
and two other lecturers of equal
reputation will be engaged to deliv-
er lectures, and the usual class ex-
ercises will be omitted. Teachers
who need academic training will be
obliged to attend summer school
either at Yankton or Mitchell.
Class drills for the purpose of in
structing teachers in the subject
matter of a text book should be un-
necessary. Lectures by prominent
educators are good. Class drills
exemplifying the methods of teach
ing and conducted for the most
part by the teachers themselves are
still better.

Avon Clarion: To endorse the
reelection of Hon. Robert J. Gam
bic is almost like favoring a candi-
date from our own county, as he
is only next door.
The question as ito whether the
endorsement of Mr.. Gamble is like
favoring a candidate from our own
county is a question to be decided
at the state convention. Bon
Homme county has a home candi-
date for state office and by every
rule of justice and of precedent he
should be given this delegation.
Two years ago we had candidate
for state office and it does not
appear from the records that at
that time the interests of Yankton
and Bon Homme counties were
"about equal with the senator" as
the Clarion states. In the little
game of politics Yankton county,
being "next door," has always
been antagonistic to Bon Homme
county for selfish reasons. It be
hooves Bon Homme county to look
after the interests of her home can
didate first, and if at the state con-
vention Yankton county takes the
same view that the Clarion does,
and considers the "interests of the
two counties about equal" let their
delegates show it by their votes.

Dell Rapids Tribune: Doesn't it
strike the people Of South Dakota
as mighty significant that the only
papers supporting the machine
trio, Senator Kittredge and Rep
resentatives Burke and Martin)
and the only papers said machine
trio regard as real simon pure re-
publican papers, are those which
all last summer and fall filled their
columns with paid editorials from
the railroad editorial bureau
against rate legislation? There is
not paper supporting them and
their machine that did not publish
the anti-rate matter.
Bro. Nesbit must have been
dreaming little when he penned
the above article. The files of the
CITIZEN REPUBLICAN Will show that
the statement is utterly false. In
fact an examination of the papers
of Bon Homme county will show
that the reverse of his statement is
true.

The Hurley Herald, a strong In
surgent paper, comes to the de-
tense of Sen. Gamble in the fol
lowing left handed style:
In fact there has not been a
selfish, tyrannical deal to put
through by the machine to which
Gamble was not party till a few
months ago. In short, Gamble
supported, and his support was ac-
cepted by, the members OF the ma
chine combine till they were bound
by the rules that usually obtain
among gentlemen to give him sup
port in return. But obligations
rest lightly on our esteemed ma
chine brethren and having no fur
ther use for Gamble they kicked
him out. y We see no reason
for holding up CANDLES past
against him now. He is leaving
the machine while Martin is going
to it. The Herald is willing to ac-
cept CANDLES support even if he
has associated with the Argus
Leaders friends in the past"
If Mr.. Gamble can get any con-
ISOLATION out Of such support as
this he is very easily satisfied. He
is accused Of having been "sel6sh
and tyrannical" during all Of the
ten years that he has represented
us in congress, until he was finally
clicked out'' by the machine, and
now the Herald comes to bis de
fense, not because of the record
shat he has made as a public ser
want but because he is forsaking
his past record. It should also be
noticed that the Herald does not
say that it's willing to support Mr..
Gamble, but is willing to accept
his support. This should be very
consoIing to Mr.. Gamble. But The
Herald says Mr.. Gamble supported
and his support was accepted by
the machine" It neglects to al
SO state that MIR. Gamble has re-
ceived the support of the "ma-
chine" during four campaigns
that the three times in which lie
was successful his success came
through the support of the "ma-
chine" Does it follow that Ne
cause the "machine" has elected
him three times and tried to do so
on anott er occasion that they are
"bound by the rules that usually
obtain among gentlemen" to sup
port him indefinitely? The fact is
that part of the machine is still
supporting Gamble and another
part is supporting Martin. We do
not presume to say why a portion
of them are not now supporting
Gamble. 1t might be that they
think Mr.. Martin better fitted for
the Office. 1t might be that they
are personally more under obliga-
ton to Mr.. Martin than to Mr..
Gamble. Or it might be that the
"selfishness and tyranny" which
the Herald charges him with have
been too conspicuous, though SO
far as we have observed these
charges have all emanated from
the insurgents. Whatever may be
the cause of their refusal to sup
port him in a fifth campaign we
fail to see how they have violated
any 'rules that obtain among gen
tlemen."

LUMBER BUSINESS ACTIVE
Twenty-Five Per Cent Greater
Than Last Year.

The lumber manufacturers in Vir-
ginia. North and South Carolina, are
buster now than they have been for
some years. Twenty-Five per cent.
more lumber is being manufactured
now than at this season last year. This
is due largely to the high range Of
prices, giving an impulse to the in
dustry.
In this section the activity is espe-
cial1y noticeable and the assertion Of
Secretary Walker, of the n. c.. Pine
Association, that all persons owning
a few acres Of timber land and a few
hundred dollars are engaging in the
manufacturing business. In the Able
marie section many mills have re-
Gently gone up and are in operation,
many are being built and others are
projected. In this respect Elizabeth

lumber plants are yet to be added.

and this is certainly borne out when
