A WORD OF

The Republican party Is in the as.

ton, but that Is no reason or even sign
that it viii always be. Nationally, the
party -:sas been retained in power be.
1t has kept faith with the PEG.
pie and has carried GU, IT'S pledges.
Just as oon as II failsito do that, the
tide will turn and the Democrats will
again be placed In power. The same
thing can be said concerning condi.
tons In the state. The Republicans
have held the popular side Of every Is.
sue before the people in West Virginia
I'm recent years, and IN consequence
the malorities have been growing with
each succeeding election, but a few
mistakes might turn the tables and
cause he loss of everything that has
been gained. 1t Is generally conced.
ed that we would not now be entoy.
ing the BENEFITS Of tax reform had
a special session Of the Legislature
not been called for the specific Dur
pose of passing the proposed law.
Two years ago the State Senate was
notorio isIy anti.aiministration on
many important measures and we ara
to-day ruffering In a measure on ac.
count of that fact. At the present
time there seems to be a lack OF zeal
in carrying u party pledges On the
part of IN of the legislators in both
houses The House has turned down
the Primary Election bill and so far
the two branches have failed to get
together on the two cent fare prop
osition. 1t seems to us that or leg
islators ought to hear in mind that un.
redeemed pledges do not make and
hold the confidence Of the people. The
closing days of the session ought to
be spent In doing what the party IS
under obligations TO do for the people.
We stin have faith to think that a two
cent rate bin viii be passed and some
other good bills be made laws.
The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1907-02-16

Some people may wonder why the
two cent fare bill has not been passed
long before this. It is because enough
people 10 thwart its passage are under
control OF the same interests as, the
ma who wrote the following for the
Charleston News:
1.-THE two cent fare bill ran up against
another snag last night when the Sen.
ate refused to concur in the House
amendments to the Senate bill. While
there seems to be little doubt that
the majority of the members Of botn
branches of the Legislature are IN IA
vor Of the enactment Of legislation
regulating railroad fares, there seems
to be little prospect OF them getting
together and agreeing upon a measure.
And the further they come from agree,
ing, the better 1t viii be for the
State"
