LAW TO BE ENFORCED
State Orchard inspectors Hold
important Meeting Here.
VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN NOW ON
Director Stewart, of Morgantown,
Makes Encouraging Report at
Meeting.

About TWENTY-FIVE of the state fruit
and orchard inspectors held meeting
mere this afternoon in Hotel Berkeley.
Director J. III. Stewart, of the expert
ment station at Morgantown. presided.
The object of the meeting was to
formulate plans of action for vigor-
ously enforcing the state law enacted
for the destruction of San Jose scale,
peach yellows and orchard pests.
Director Stewart made the crafty
ing report that of the 10000 peach
trees examined by the state inspectors
only six per cent, are affected with
yellows. But much larger percentage
of apple trees are affected by the
scale. This condition. he said, is real
ly alarming and a vigorous campaign
will be commenced at once to eradi-
cate the pest or to more largely re-
duce its ravages.
The great fruit belt of West Vir-
ginia embraces five counties of the
Eastern Panhandle. namely, Jeffer-
son, Berkeley, Morgan, Hampshire
and Mineral But Berkeley surpasses
them all in the amount of acreage
and amount of crop 1t is in this large
belt that the efforts of the state fruit
and orchard inspectors have hitherto
been mostly concentrated, and with
very gratifying results. But the work
has only practically commenced, much
good has been done and the far
reaching results for the future are in
estimable.
Among the prominent men in this
movement besides Director Stewart
who were present were Prof w. M
Munson, horticulturist, and Prof r.
f. Rumsey etymologist of the station
at Morgantown Mr.. Stewart is also
executive officer OF this state inspec-
ton law.
Among the several fruit growers at
tending the meeting was Mr. S. II.
Fulton. of the Sleepy Creek Orchard
Co., and one of the leading peach
growers in Morgan county

however, did not detract at all from
the pleasure Of the occasion.
The parlors were appropriately dec
Grated with autumn leaves and corn
stalks, while candles encased I'm
pumpkins around the rooms produced
wierd and suggestive. if not bril-
liant light.
The young people were all dressed
as ghosts and the ghost procession
was one of the amusing features OF
the party, while the guessing as to
the identity of the various ghosts Gre
ated much merriment.
Miss Martha Rogers, of Cheyenne,
Wyoming, house guest of the Misses

course, was a center OF attraction.
Music and dancing constituted the
more serious features OF the occa-
sion, but were none the less enjoy
able.

THE VOTING MACHINE AGAIN.

A New Jersey judge handed down a
curious voting machine decision the
other day. A complaint was filed
against one Edward Shaunessey for
illegal voting. The charge was that he
had voted as a resident of a house in
which he didn't live. The complainant
had seen Shaunessey go up to the vot-
ing machine and pull the lever that
closed the curtains. He had heard the
bell ring, indicating that a lever had
been pulled. Then S-haunessey threw
the curtains back with the lever used
for that purpose and emerged from the
voting place. This was in answer to
a question as to how the complainant
knew the defendant had cas- a ballot.
The court dismissed the case, giving
as his reason for doing so:
You cannot hold a man for illegal
voting where there is a machine. III
nave to dismiss the complaint. The
statutes give a mar the right to vote
by ballot. Machine voting is unconsti-
tuttonal, therefore 1 cannot hold a man
who voted on a machine"
In view of the fact that the supreme
court of New Jersey has not handed
down an opinion adverse to the use of
the voting machine, and the further
fact that the machines have been used
there for several years, it would seem
that the judge took a good deal upon
his shoulders when he handed down
his decision HA noYref Ioxa -
rather anxious TO find an excuse for
acquitting a fraudulent voter. and he
found a mighty poor one There is no
more reason why a fraudulent voter
should not be punished when he uses
a machine than when he uses one of
the out-of-date paper ballots.
Under h old system no man could
swear, without an examination Of the
ballots, that a suspected man actually
did vote. He might have deposited a
blank ballot in the box. Even If an
EXAMINATION of the ballots showed one
blank it would be only prima facie
evidence that the suspect was telling
the truth. Somebody else might have
deposited the ballot he claimed as his
own. Il is possible for fraudulent votes
10 be cast on voting machines, and
those who cast them should be pun
ished. 1t is not for a district judge to
discharge a prisoner practically with
oft giving the prosecution a chance to
make out q case.
The value of the voting machine lies
chiefly in the fact that it's use mini
mixes the danger of election frauds.
Careful watchers a prevent the cast
ing of illegal votes. and after the votes
are cast it is beyond the power of any,
me, unless all the election officers at
a given polling place are in collision,
to change the result.
