A political party that is an enemy
to them would destroy them instead
of building them up and making
them stronger and better Hence,
it is an easy matter for the people
to decide what political party has
the best interests of the people at
heart in this State.

WELCOME THEM.

The coming of the Merchants
Association of Pittsburg, and the
Wholesale Merchants Board of the
Cleveland Chamber of Commerce,
as exclusively announced by the
Telegram Monday IS an event of
more than ordinary Importance to
the business men and Others of
: Clarksburg. 1T is an event that
should engage their attention. and
especially that of the Board of
Trade here.
Trade conditions are essentially
factors between Clarksburg and
Pittsburg and between Clarkshurg
and Cleveland. 1t Is fact that
much business IS done with both
Pittsburg and Cleveland. They
are manufacturing and commercial
centers. with which Clarksburg has
more to do than the average citi-
zen here imagines. and why should
not these two cities have more right
to our trade than some of the far
away eastern cities. if they can
furnish as good goods and as cheap
prices as New York or Philadel-
phia? In view Of this it can not
injure Clarlsburg TO extend wei
come. the royalty and heartiness OF
which will be remembered by these
visiting gentlemen after they have
completed their extensive itinerary
and returned to their home cities.
The Board of Trade and leading
business men should get together
at once and decide on line of ac-
ton to receive them in hospitable
manner.

Unless Judge Golf declares un-

laws of this State. there will be a
number who will have to serve the
penalty. and even. if he does so
declare them, ii is not clear yet
what bearing that will have on the
right of the United States to
prosecute and punish for such
sales as have been made by the eX-
press companies and may be made
hereafter. 1t must be true with
the Government that sales can be
made only. where the Government
stamp has been issued. in that
building and place and no other.
After all the principle involved in
the matter before him may be only
that of the refusal of express com
panies to. carry liquor. Be that as
It may Judge Golf may be counted
upon to confine himself to the law
and to give learned opinion on
the subject for that has ever been

Our Democratic brethren have
not yet manifested any particular
interest in the campaign, with the
exception of few who aim to use
the party for their own designs

borders so much on listlessness that
one readily concludes they know
it to be a hopeless case. However,
their Indifference should not be al
lowed to mislead the Republicans
or to make them careless in the
campaign. The year is an import
ant one and it Is urgent for the
welfare of the people of the State
that the Republican ticket in every
county possible be elected.

of chance to work. robbed you of
good wages. when you did work.
and robbed you of prosperity, peace
