the consequences. They usually
elope because of what may be termed
palpitation of the heart. They think
but little, II anything, of what they

League Baseball.

That good old American game of
baseball is one of the cleanest and
most delightful sports a person can
engage in. II is interesting, excit-
ing. entertaining. amusing and ex-
hilirating. The efforts of local fans
in securing a berth for Clarksburg
in the new Western Pennsylvania
League will likely result in a sue
cessful season of league games in
this city in the summer for most all
of us seem to be hungry for 1t.
Those who disapprove of baseball
and put their feet down hard upon it
as a useless. time-wasting amuse-
ment should remember that man as
well as boy must have some kind OF
play; that there must be some amuse-
ment for him along with the work;
and that this time for amusement
and recreation could be spent in
many worse diversions than in base
ball, and in the main 1t most likely
would in Clarksburg.
OF course league baseball is quite
a different thing from the common,
every day garden variety OF the
game that is not conducted under

The county commissioners should
officially notify the local traction
company to place a substantial
guard railing or fence around the
platform OF it's Clarksburg-Fairmont
interurban terminal. The county
had Glen Elk bridge in good shape
with adequate ratings on both
sides, all the way across until the
street car company got the privilege
OF running the interurban line upon
it and ripped a big slice of the
railing away. The platform the
traction company put up is practic-
ally unprotected by guard ratings
all the way around which makes
much larger space unprotected than
the place from which the traction
company ripped the county's railing
away. The protection and safety Of
the travelling public should not be
thus neglected.

Fads in Dress From Paris

''Paris has struck a new note of
novelty this year in the hat pins it is
Displaying, writes the noted authority.
Grace Margaret Gould, in the Woman's s
Home Companion, "They give the
French touch, many a time, to a hat

them. Surely they are odd enough to

have no trouble at all to select a para

are shown in many variations of the

gilt, and so are the ribs of the parasol.
In point of size the fashionable hat pin
grows and grows. and one would have
long and hard search in Paris If they
were looking for small hat pin, such
as we all used few years ago.
Many of the high novelty hat pins

Work to be Done.

The Legislature will convene Janu-
ary (th, and there is much speculation
as to what will be done. A press dis
patch from Frankfort says: sss.I
1t is learned from the most reliable
sources that the caucus will be heId by
the Democratic members of the Legis-
lature on January 9Th. in this city.
This is the day before the converting
of theLegisalture and at the secaucuses
the fate of the candidates will be de-
cided, for it is likely that the Demo-
cratic membres of the Legislature will
follow the example of the Repubilca
members and agree to vote as a unit
on all bills and political matters that
come up before the General Assembly.
The action of the forty-five Repub
llcan members of the Legislature dur
ing this session has done more to unite
and solldfy the Democratic members
OF the Legislature than anything since
the election. 1t is now certain that
the example set by the Republicans
will be followed by the Democrats and
they will organize both branches of
the General Assembly.
The DemOcatic country press has
made this demand on the Democratic
mebmers of the Legislatul e, and of the
183 Democratic newspapers pub ished
in this State all but three or four of
them are insisting whatever legisla-
tion is passed by the coming Leglsla-
ture shall be originated by the Demo
Gratis.
1t is also stated positively that any
redistricting bill that is passed at this
meeting of the General Assembly will
be passed by the Democrats, and that
the Republicans will have no finger in
the framing up of any bill to redistrict
the State.
The country press uses the argument
that in States where the Republicans
are in the majority the Republicans
redistiict the State and they demand
that the Democratic members of the
Legislature take the same action.
These newspapers also insist that the
Democratic mebmers of the Legisla-
ture stand pat. .and stand together for

there will be Democratic majority of

Turn the Rascals Out.

Don't get disheartened at this Re-
publican panic. but vote to turn the
rascals out" that is your only political
salvation. AS long as the tariff pro-
tects the trusts and the United States
Treasury protects the banks; there will
be fictitious prosperity followed by
panics and business depression. The
Republican policies are those of the
gambler, they plunder the people by
high taaxtion and spend the public
money for subsidies to their masters,
thetrusts and. corporations. What is
needed is honest laws and faithful
administration of the same. Less po-
litcal fireworks and a chance for honest
men to get their dues. With equal
rights to all and special privileges to
none, there would be no panics, for
banks and corporations would be COM
PEELED to obey the law and taxation
would be reduced to the needs OF the
government, instead of piling up mil
ons inSthe United States Treasury for
the banks and politicians to play with.
The whole country has been on pro-
longed Republican debauch and the
people are now suffering from it. Ex-
travagance has run riot in Federal
affairs with the trusts and
at the head of the procession, and the
Administration and the Republican
leaders at the fail end. Like all spend
thrifts they now are repenting with
epmty pockets and headaches, and are
trying TO find out where they arc at.
They have forced Us ali to participate in
the common disaster, and until a new
crew is elected in their places not much
improvement can be expected in ma
tional affairs.
aThe law breaking trust magnates are
still at large the railroad corporations
are continuing to charge all the tariff
will bear, as for as interstate COM
merce is concerned, while President
Roosevelt offers no remedy but joins
with Speaker Cannon in leaving bad
enough alone. Business is depressed
and wages are falling but the RepubIi-
can Congress stands pat, having raised
their own salaries 80 per cent, they
can stand it. Thank God the Repub-
iican party is far from being as omni-
potent as it boasted it was and the
rain and sunshine are, therefore, not
mortgaged to the trusts, and the cor
porations have no monopoly of the
wealth of nature. The American
farmer will pull US all out of the hole
through the sweat of his brow, in spite
Of the handicap of Republican misman-
agement and folly. Let all who feel
the financial distress that Republican
policies have produced, determine.
during the New Year to cease beilev
ing Republican boasts, but do their
best to turn the rascals out.
