CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR.

Last week we published a clipping
from the daily press naming probable
candidates for the next Democratic
gubernatorial race. Of course it is
early to predict the number or the
names, but as sure as gun Is iron the
list contained men who are not in the
hands of their friends. The following
is the list of Honorables who would
willingly undertake the labors of the
position up to the present time
Taylor Ellyson, R. Z. w. Duke. Henry
G. Stuart, Harry st. Geo. Tucker,
Edward Echols, William Hodges Mann
Carter Glass, Joseph E. Willard and
Robert E. Lee. Quite a formidable
array, and all good men.

A HOPELESS CASE.

The conservative" that is the
Palmer and Bucknerite of 1906, the
safe and sane of recent campaigns,
the know it alp of today, has come
to the conclusion that Hearst must be

er shipping in the canal pass through.
Of course the dredging of these turn
outs will come out of the pocket of the
contractor and it will materially re-
duce the profit that would have been
made in transporting the dock to
Manila. But it is the choice of two
evils. for il the drydock had gone
straight through the canal, there would
have been no room for other ships to
pass it. and the canal would have had
to be closed to all other traffic for six
days. 1t looks as though 1t would take
almost as much money to get the dock
to the Philippines as it did to build it

it will stand for long time as the re-

low the negroes far more privileges Here
than they have in Massachusetts. We
give them separate schools and sepa.

separate churches, societies, and

PRIMARY ELECTION.

The Democrats of StauntOn are to
hold primary election on the 18th day
of May for the nomination of aldermen
and councilmen under the new order
of things. There has been some Oppo.
sitiOn to this. but not of a nature to
deter them, indeed they seem more
encouraged since the murmurings
have been heard. The city of Staunton
Is Democratic city, if it were any
thing else we could rely on that party
taking all such steps as would insure
its safe retention by it. In q free for
all race nobody becomes responsible
for those elected. When party is in
power that party is responsible for
those in office. Of course Republicans
will advise against primary, but
what they advise against, is safe
thing to do, and the Democrats have
risen to the occasion. IL StaunGOn
had mixed body, little of any thing
and everything, the internal dlssen.
tiOns and chickering's would be unend-
ing; everybody would blame everybody
else, everybody would be right but the
other fellow, and thus our affairs
might be tied up, and mixed up, and
delayed, until we became ashamed OF
ourselves and bywOrd amongst oul
neighbors.
This is an important era in Staun
toms history, there is much to do, an(
it should be done well. 1t therefor,
becomes essential that the Democrats
of this city nominate the very bes
men in their party and elect them
and thus take on themselves, the bur
den and the responsibility of the gov
eminent. There are plenty of sucl
men. men who have the Intelligence
the honesty, and the personal interes
to make them valuable membere O
those bodies, and having elected sncf
there will be no fear of retrogresslon

taxation, business stagnatiOn, or o

rights. Agitators may find fault. par

THE ROBBER TARIFF.

Mr.. Gaines of Tenn, has introduced
a bill in Congress requiring all steel
imported for rebuilding San Francisco
to be admitted free. This coupled with
the speech of Mr.. Rainey of Indiana,
to the effect that steel rails are shipped
from the United States and sold in
other countries for less money than
they are sold here, and that watches
made at the Elgin works are sent to
Switzerland and returned to the Uni.
ted States, having been sold to Swiss
firms which removed the dials, placed
a cheap Swiss dial in them and then
returned them, the sale to the Swiss
firms being greatly under what the
same watches can be bought for in the
United States, has caused consterna-
ton. In the case of steel rails it was
made known that railroad company
building a road across the border into
Canada paid 1927 for steel rails in the
United States, and $40 in Canada,
each time purchasing exactly the
same rail. When Col. Hepburn the
champion of high tariff, called for
more statistics Mr.. Williams, the
minority leader, gave him similar
instance of road building from the
United Sites into Mexico.
Mr.. Hepburn would not admit these
as facts, but Mr.. Hepburn was arguing
as the lawyer who excerpts to evidence
because it is not legally taken. He
drew the distinction between evidence
and facts. He could not, however,
parry such arguments. He knew they
were facts though possibly they would
not have been accepted in court as
legal evidence. These opportunities
to air tariff iniquities were not expect
ed. By all known means the Repub
licans have sought to protect the pro
tective tariff from assault and inves
tigation during this session. They
have sought to prevent any discussion
of it and were happy in the thought
that they had done so. But just as
they were happy, trouble ar ose, the
earth shook, and out of it's assures
rose the specter which has haunted
the people and held down the farmer
No matter how much may be written
