Even the Democrats in the minor
ity carefully nominated a man, so
that in the event of their success,
there would be senator from one Of
the other counties than Harrison,
which already had one. In other
words in the last campaign there was
no chance for Harrison county to
have two senators and the other two
counties none.
Yet, after all, the Governor has
the right idea, as shown by the con-
ditton that VIII arise in this district
two years hence. when a senator is
TO be nominated and elected. Lewis
county win doubtless want the sen
ator. What Harrison viii want re-
mains to be seen. but that such a
large ana important county as Har-
rison should have a senator none
will deny.
It would seem that if the mem
bership is to be increased that there
ought to be at least three senators in
this district. That is easily to do
without re-districting the district.
With the district having three sena-
tors or more every county in the dis
triet would be represented.

The policies of the Republican
party, both national and state, have
been fully indicated this week
again, The latest vindlcation is by
the State Federation of Labor in
session at Charleston. The com
mittee on grievances made a report
that is most significant, and certain
ly ought 10 be most pleasing to every
one. when 1t is learned upon what
the report was based. The report
reads:
I'VE have no grievances of any
kind to report"
The report does not mean that
the committee neglected to discharge
its duty. The Federation itself does
not 50 regard It. What 1t does mean
Is that there we're none to report.
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1907-01-18

and that labor conditions in this
State so far as the Federation is con-
eerned are excellent, a fact most
gratifying to all.
Never before has such a report
been made, and never before could
it have more properly been made
than now," say the Federation ofie-
ials. Conditions between employees
and employers are better than they
nave been ever before known to be,
and the difficulty between miners
and operators has been entirely ad-
justed, SO that the delivers after the
earth's subterranean treasures are
content"
Il is not to be denied that the re
port has far-reaching political sig
niticance. The Federation is not a
political body, nor was it the intent
Of the committee to give any politl-
cal eoloring to the report. The
committee simply reported condi-
lions as 1t found them, regardless OF
politics and wholly without thought
of such. The Telegram does not
lay political stress on the report. in
the spirit of attaching extra mean
ing, on the grounds that it was made
by and to the Federation. But this
paper has the right to make deduc-
lions from the report that will be
helpful in the future to all the
citizenship Of the State.
Prosperity may be hooted at In
political campaign, but there is no
denying it, when we have It In such
superabundance and as such it has
It's effect on the voting population.
Also, there are few who stand ready
to contend that the marvellous de-
velopment OF this State is not al
most entirely due to Republican ma
ional and state policies. These poll
cies. especially as advocated by Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Governor Daw-
son in the mater Of Industrial re-
forms and closer relationship be-
tween employer and empIoye, are
mainly responsible for the excellent
conditions. to which the Federation
directs attention. And so. the Re
publican party. the mine owners and
the miners are to be congratulated
upon the browning success of these
policies-that situation the grievance
committee has reported to the Fed
Grafton.

In his message Gocernor Dawson
suggests that the membership of the
State senate is entirely too small and
thinks there ought to be fifty or sixty
members instead OF thirty as at pres
ent. He points out that sixteen is
a quorum and nine the majority OF
the quorum. He also shows where
these nine may stop legislation COM
ing from the lower house. These
are very good reasons, but he gives
another that is not well founded and
mentions Harrison county in connec-
ton Herewith along with some other
counties. He seems to think Har-
rison county dominates the other
two counties in this senatorial dis
trict. Harrison may have the most
votes and perhaps more say, II so
desired, in nominating conventions.
Both Lewis and Doddridge, however,
have been fairly treated. To illus
trate. Senator Cole from Lewis re-
tired. Senator Thorn remained a
member from Harrison and Dodd-
ridge was given the senator this year.

There is among many corporations,
and individuals as well, that employ
workmen and clerks, diseouraging
lack Of any visable manifestation OF
appreciation for the good services
they have rendered. This is prob
ably not due SO much to a lack OF
appreciation as to forgetruiness for
scarcely any owner or proprietor can
feel otherwise than appreciative and
thankful for the good services rem
dered by faithful employees. But
there is in many instances an ap-

such and 1t would be much better for

these employees have a much kindlier
feeling for their employers and are
working for their interests to the full
extent of their abilities.
OF course, profuse distribution Of
fattering praise will tend to make
an employe conceited and finally so
big-headed that he will soon begin
to think that the company cannot get

to the rescue and upon questioning
the patrons, he ELECTED the informa-

in the street. For this lodging and
breakfast he ordered bills of $3.50
