NEW YORK COTTON, Oct. 1e.-The cotton
market opened weak at a decline Of 1920
points, and Immediately after the call was
about II to % points net lower under stop-loss
selling and bear pressure, which was due to
the lower cables and better weather than ex-
pected in the south. There was active cover
ing at the decline, and prices rallied 6 or Z
points from the lowest, but failed to hold,
and during the middle of the morning were
within 2@5 points Of the lowest with near

ORGANIC DOCTRINE.

Why should there be such in.
tense satisfaction yer Senator
Elkins being thoroughly" in ac-
cord as the Wheeling Intelligencer
puts it, with President Roosevelt on
the railroad question ? Has no
one any right to differ in even the
remotest degree with the President7
Are we all bound to dot every al"

executive of the country does ? Is
reasonable independence within

Parkersburg Journal.
The Journal does not seem to
"catch on" 10 the reason why the
organs preach that those RepubIi-
cans who have an itching for public
Office should declare themselves as
"being thoroughly in accord with
the President" 1t is not that they
love the strenuous President less,
but because they love a public office
more. The Morgantown Chronicle
was the first to sound the note of
warning to the Office hunters. Bro.
Hu Maxwell is one Of the far seeing
men Of the State. He is perfectly
aware that it would be political sui.

"Elkins" Republican. Such an
announcement would "cook his
goose" with the public. The peo-
pie cannot be hoodwinked into in
dorsing Dawson" or an "Elkins"
candidate. The President is still
quite popular, and the idea is to
have the Machine candidates to an
nounce themselves as 'Rooseveltan'
Republicans. They hope by this
scheme to elect their candidates.
The men at the head Of the State
Machine are no less cunning today
than they we're in 1904. With
all the Influences" they could
bring TO bear Bill Dawson could
not have been elected Governor
had Il not been for the immense
popularity Of Theodore Roosevelt
Governor Dawson rode in on the
Roosevelt avalanche and the tax
takers saved their hide. But the
people have grown wiser since 1904
and they are going to Skin the
hide on tax takers in 1906 and 1908.
The Roosevelt Republican cry is
not going TO deceive them in the
next election. They are loaded for
bear and they are going 70 shoot
before they give up the gun.

THE DAwSON.ELKINs FIGHT.

The issue that is raised between

more selfish than sacriicial to the

mountaineering Dispatch News
(Rep.)
THE ARGUS is of the same opin-
ion as the Dispatch. News. The
peoples welfare is a secondary con.
sideration with both the Governor
and the Senator. Retention in Office
is the game they are playing and
the people would be decidedly fool
ish to take up the cudgel of either
one. What the people of West vir.
ginia want is a change of public of.
hcials. The political corruption
has become a stencil in the nostrils
of all honest people. Give us a new
deal and see if the political corrup.
ton cannot be eliminated.

WINTER BeQUgrs.

One Of the greatest compliments
ever paid The ARGUS and one that
We appreciate more than any other
for long time is by the Fairmont
Times which has recently prepared
and printed in colored ink very
elaborate letter-head and at the
bottom of the said letter head a
short editorial from recent issue
OF The ARGUS Is printed in red ink.
As nearly all the papers in the State
gave the new Morning Times good
send of, it is great compliment to
have the one from THE ARGUS select
ed 20 print on their letter heads, and
shows, first, that they consider The
ARGUS good authority and know its
standing is In the front line OF the
States newspapers, and, second, that
the said editorial sized the matter
up in the fewest words and with the
most force and adaptability. The
following letter speaks for ITSELF
FAIRMoNT, w VA. Feb. az,
My dear Slidell:-I have neglect.
ed thanking you for the very kind
notice you gave the new Morning
Times. To show my appreciation
of the same, refer you to the bot.
tom OF this sheet.
1t is just such boosts as this that
make a paper and the fellows over
the State have been exceptionally
nice to orr new venture.
The Morning Times is coming
along wonderfully well--in the first
month We tackled on nearly 1900
new subscribers and this seems to
be only the beginning.
Again thanking you for the boost
and wishing continued luck for the
good old Argus, l am
Fraternally yours,

a harvest for Preston county and
the Fairmont region.
