The News does not think much
of the prosperity of the country and
calls it fsthe last, worst curse" The
Telegram takes it for granted from
that that the plan and desire OF
local Democracy are to return to the
DAYS of the last Democratic national
administration, when the word
prosperity would have thrown the
thousands of starving people into
ecstacy. With the plan revealed as
it is now, the first congressional dis
trict will be more and more Re
publican at the polls this fall. let
no man who cares for family and
self forget what the Democratic pa
per has revealed in this respect as to
its party's intention, and remember
that it has declared the prosperity
of the country to be a curse.
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1906-07-24

A Democratic paper or two excuse
the action of ThaY, the slayer OF
White, on the grounds that this
country is Republican instead OF
Democratic, but the law will not
take the same grounds. Moreover
if the reason advanced by those Dem
ocratic papers be true, it is certainly
fortunate for the good of society and
the safety of young girls that the
country is Republican, otherwise, ac-
cording to their argument, all the
girls in the country would be ruin
ed. But to be serious about it, the
Telegram makes no such imputation,
but, nevertheless, it can not and will
not be responsible for the insinua-
ton made by these Democratic pa
pers against their own party, as that
is their own affair, and they are
privileged, so far as the Telegram IL
concerned, to make all the insinua-
tions they desire against their own
party. But this paper regrets that
any party paper, or any paper what
soever, would so arraign a political
party in America.

cLAnKsBURG. W. Va, JULY "a
FAIR TO FARMERS.

"The farmers of West Virginia
will not be forgetfuI of the great
service rendered them by the Re
publican party of the State in Civ
ing them the most wholesome tax
laws they have ever had, says an eN-
change. EEFor the first time, in the
history of the State they have been
required to bear no more than their
fair share of the burdens of taxa
ton. Heretofore the railroads and
the other big corporations of the
State have been assessed at such
small fraction of their actual values
that they have escaped bearing their
lust portion of the taxation of the
State. If the Republican party had
done nothing else in decade the
new tax law would Justify its fur
Their lease on power.
"The tax law of West Virginia
Is now being talked of and studied
all over this country as model tax
law. 1t is said to more evenly di-
vide the burdens of taxation than
the tax law of any other State.
.'When the State administration
started out to assess the railroads
and kindred properties there were
those who were skeptical ABOUT it.
They declared that when the test
would come the Board of Public
Works would not dare put up the
assessed values of the railroads. But
how well they predicted may be
Judged by the very large increases
that wore made. As a result of the
wholesome law, and the fair and inn
partial manner in which the Board
of Public Works discharged its func-
tions the railroads have been assess
ed as much as the farmers, and the
dollar of the corporations can no
longer saddle off unjust burdens on
the dollar of the farmer. 1t has
brought about state of square deal
for everybody in West Virginia as
regards taxation.
esThe question now confronting
the people of the State in the selec-
tion of the next Legislature is
whether the present wholesome tax
law shall be made to continue or
whether it shall be replaced. The
Democrats have all along opposed
the measure and would today, If they
could repeal it. a Republican
Legislature means continuation OF
present conditions. A Democratic
Legislature means step back,
resort to the old order of things.
The people will have to choose which
they will have.
HAnd right here we want to pre-
dict that the answer will be plainly
and unequivocally-by such a large
majority as to leave no doubt about
iit.that the people prefer present
The record of the Re
publican party has been one of full
fiIment, one of things done for the
GOOD of the people. On the other
land the Democrats go around
.heorizing and saying what they
would do if they but had the chance,
whether it be in State or national
politics they fail to do it as inglor-
ously as they well could. They re-
mind one of the story of a fellow up i
n PendIeton county. He had been {

The News says Mayor Harmer in
formed council that he had fined
Wilson and Watson $25 each and
thus charges him with exceeding
his powers, for, it is a fact beyond
dispute that the heaviest fine the
MAYOR is authorized by law to i'm
pose is $50. Does it mean TO pre-
fer another charge against him in
this of exceeding his powers! If
it keeps this up against him, coun-
ell viii likely be inclined to sit up

the council itself has no disposition

ouslv. But if the News clamors for

entertaining his friends with tales
of the things he would do to a bear
should he ever see one. Well, one
day he had gone out into the noun
tains to pick june berries. He-took
his Winchester rife along and set 1t
down by a tree while he climbed up
into the tree to pick june berries
While he was busy at his work up
into a neighboring tree climbed a
bear and began likewise to gather IN
June berries. When our boasttul
friend spied the bear he did not do
a thing but climb down out Of the
tree, grab his gun and make tracks
rs fast as he could for home. When
he got there he told his friends that
if he had only had a pitchfork what
he would have done for that bear
would have been a plenty. Now
the Democratic party is like that
man. When in rare instances the
people are misled by their preten-
tions and entrust the Democrats
with a gun they sigh for pitchfork
and do nothing.
"The Republican party has estab-
lished its reputation as a party of
peace and prosperity. Whenever it
has been in power fortune has ever
smiled upon this land And when
the Democrats have been in power
calamity has been in our midst.
Now some may say that it just hap
pened so, and was not the result Of
party policies. But the people Of
West Virginia are from Missouri
when it comes to this. They will
certainly have to have stronger evil
dence than the Democrats before
they accept such conclusion"
