WEST VA. TAXES
PRESIDENT AT WORD.
Little Enthusiasm For Third
Term.

WASHINGTON, d. c., October %.
-(SpeciaD Representative Joseph
Holt Gaines, strong Republican of
the Third Congressional district of
West Virginia, finds little enthus-
iasm in his State for the renomina-
ton of President Roosevelt. He says
the people are taking the President
at his word when he said he would
not again become a candidate. Should
he decide to accept the nomination,
Representative Gaines does not be-
lieve the people of West Virginia
would vote for him.
The people of West Virginia, l
believe, consider President Roosevelt
an honest and courageous man, but
the traditional prejudice against a
third term is pronounced among
them," said Mr.. Gaines. "The people
seem radically opposed to overthrow
ing the rule laid down by Washing
ton Besides, we do not consider that
the Presidents reelection is essent-
ial to carrying out reforms which
have proved and will prove to the
welfare of the country. Regardless
of who may be the next president re-
form will go on. The people have
learned the lesson Suits will con-
tinue to be brought against the rail-
ways if they can be based upon just
cause, and the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the Supreme Court
will be kept busy. Why? Because the
people have learned the game; law
yers have learned the game and can
play it just as we'll whether President
Roosevelt is reelected or not.

nomination. AS for who the next

ANTITRUST LAW
is TOO EXTREME
View Taken at Conference
.---.a44Ex
by Pres. Butler.

CHICAGO, ILL, October 25.-
(SpeciaD an address before the
trust Conference of the National Civ
ic Federation, President Murray, of
Columbia College, took the position
that the Sherman antitrust law COM
mits the nation to policy which is
too extreme.
He said in part:
Problems of grave Importance, not
only legal, but political in the highest
sense, arise when we attempt to fix
the ways and means by which the
Government shall control and super
wise public service corporations. Our
constitutional limitations, our politi-
cal traditions and past party differ
ences, and the complex structure of
our whole government system, with
its state and national agencies, make
the large problem of governmental
control Of corporations an ex-
tremely difficult one. There are
those who think they see short and
easy methods of accomplishing the
desired end, but my prediction is
that, true to the characteristics of
our people, we shall work out a just
solution of these involved prob
lens, not at one stroke or by wholly
logical processes, but step by step
and after many experiments, and not
a few unforeseen difficulties will have
to be surmounted or circumvented.
Care must be taken, Mr.. Butler
said, not to distrub that confidence
which is the basis of our credit sys-
tenn. He declared that the abuses of
corporate management were manifold
and that they have justly aroused
much feeling, but that there is an
ample remedy in our constitution and
laws.
Of the Sherman law, he said:
There is reason to believe that the
Sherman antitrust law commits the
nation to a policy which is too ex-
IRENE to a policy that, in putting an
end to certain admitted evils, also
puts an end to certain demonstrable
benefits. Many of us believe that the
act set unduly exalts the principle
of competition and fails to lay due
emphasis upon the public benefits
which may follow from properly reg
ulated and supervised cooperation.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infiamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

Americus Negro Is Killed Near

Joe Hollis, an Americas negro boy,
was killed by the northbound passen
ger train at Powersville, near Macon.
The engineer saw the boy on the track
evidently asleep, but was too near to
bring his train to stop. 1t was found
that both legs were so badly crushed
that amputation must follow, but this
was unnecessary as he died just as the
hospital was reached. The boy gave
his name as Joe Hollis. He said he
lived in Americas and had a mother
living at Oak Hill. He says he was on
his way to Macon and when near Pow
ersville sat down on the end of a cross
tie to sleep, and that while asleep he
must have turned his body in such q
way as to get in position to have his
legs crushed.
