THINKS WE'RE "sKERRED.n

The Argus was fond of saying
mean things about Editor Reed of
the Preston Republican for long
time, but il has dropped its subject
since the Republican skinned the
editor of the Leader SO completely.
Possibly the Argus lost its nerve
about that time.-Journal.
The ARGUS must not be judged
by the Journals standard of
"nerve." THE ARGUS entertains no
personal i'll feeling towards any of
the newspaper brethren. When it
has occasion to indulge in criticism
of It's brethren it eminates from its
sense of public duty. 1t yields a
free lance and asks tor no sympathy
or quarters IN the discussion of pub
lie questions. In place of getting
angry and playing the baby act The
ARGUS doffs its hat to those who can
'turn the trick" on it.
II the Journal will just eliminate
its personality for the discussion of
public questions it will learn that
all this personal abuse" has no
place in the discussion of public
questions.
No, THE ARGUS has not 1ost its
nerve" and there is no one whom
THE ARGUS enjoys tilt with better
than the Preston Republican, whose
editor is well up in the science OF
sidestepping and ducking.

has been taken up by quite number
of the State papers and the move

WEST VIRGINIA WOOL

West Virginia is one Of the most
prominent wool producing States.
The value Of the clip In 1905 was
$780, 500. West Virginia is one of
the smallest states IN the Union.
but the number of sheep kept IN
this State is relatively large. Seven.
ty-hve per cent of the wool crop of
this State is classified as fine, which
amount is larger than that of any
other state. West Virginia has
SIS, 600 sheep, and the average
weight OF fleece was last year six
pounds and the total wool clip
amounted to a,37s. 900 pounds.
Climate conditions seem to favor
the sheep raising industry in this
State, as there is no other state in
the east which shows up the same
average as West Virginia.-Point

PROMISES.

One of the amusing features of
the present tax controversy is the
latest refuge taken by local trust or
gans, which as a last resort are
promising on behalf of Mr.. Dawson
that it is his excellency's benignant
intention to cut down the state tax
beyond the maximum limit named
in the law. And the organs myster-
ious!y announced that they "know
whereof they speak"
Bless their organic hearts, of
course they know whereof they speak

mouthpiece they are does the speak

When Gov. A. B. White sent his

A lock canal of eighty-6ve foot
level will be constructed across the
Isthmus of Panama. The Panama
Canal Commission has finally de.
cided this vital question, and
the report of the commission
h n e d to Secretary Taft.
The Secretary of War will indorse
the recommendation of the COM
mission and give the report to Presi-
dent Roosevelt early next week. 1t
will be transmitted by The Presi.
dent TO Congress.
The cost of lock canal will be
500, 900, 900 less than sea level
canal, and It will be completed
about three years sooner than a
canal of that type could be.
President Roosevelt and the ma
jority of the board of consulting
engineers were in favor of a sea-
level can9b bu. when it was ascer-
tanned generally that this type would
cost so much more and be so much
longer in building there was so much
opposition to it in Congress and
elsewhere that the Canal Commits
sion revered the decision of the
Board of Engineers.
Their action is satisfactory to
the President. He wants a canal
and isn't particular about the kind.
