Editor west Virginian:
AS the time has come EJr selecting
candidates to fill various Offices of pub
lie trust in our county at the coming
primary election we believe We are
voicing the sentiment OF the Republi.
can party not only OF loyal Union dis
trict but of the entire county when We
present the claim OF a man for the
Office of County Clerk Of Marion coun.
ty who has the old spirit of self sacri.
flee which characterized our leaders
when It tried mems souls to be Repub.
licans. We recall with spirit OF pride
these eventful years OF long ago and
feel proud that we still belong to the
party OF Lincoln, Grant, Mckinley and
Roosevelt We present the claims of 4
man who was not ashamed to help
champion the cause of the Republican
party when old Marion county was
hopelessly Democratic and feel as.
sured that these sacrifices will merit
the support Of majority OF the Re-
publican voters of Marion county at
the coming primary election April IL.
We present the claims Of man and
can testify to his unselfIsh patriotism.
his unquestloned integrity his earnest
Republicanism. his excellent business
qualifications. his high moral charac-
ter and his fitness for the position as
an energetic, painstakIng man. His
name would become household word
throughout the county and In every
place in life he has proved his worth
a man OF the people who unquestion-
ably holds their confidence. I want

woman or child can get square deal
when they have any business to do
with him.
Now. voters, give US him for clerk on
the 18th OF April and we will elect in
November one of the incest men that
ever graced the county clerks office
and one whom the old county of Ma
rlon may be proud of and should be
and we VIII let Pap and Walt hollow
because they can't get in with full
sway like days OF old when Charlie
ruled and the people paid the fiddler.

ASSESSOR
CHARLES E. POTTER.
HUGHES AND THE TRUSTS.

The discomfort which Mr.. Hughes
speeches caused Mr.. Bryan made that
gentleman indulge in little invective
rs to Mr.. Hughes record, charging
him with being allied with the corpor-
atoms.
The fight which is being waged in
New York between the republican
party under Hughes and the democrat
ic party under Chanler is on the sub
ject of public service commissions
which Hughes inaugurated.
What happened? There is before
and after to that situation.
Before
The companies could privately
charge such rates within the state
as they wished to fix. The require
ments of the interstate commerce
commission. that tariff schedules be
filed and kept public applied only to
interstate traffic. Such rates as they
had for state traffic could be changed
instantly to accommodate favored
shippers and to discommode shippers
who were rot favored.
The Pullman company had no pub
lie rates. Discrimination between
shippers and the giving of rebates were
not general. A few years ago all the
railroads carrying grain from Buffalo
to New York. gave the Western Ele
waiting association rebate of one-hali
cent per bushel upon all grain shipped
from Buffalo-thus preventing other
elevator companies from doing basi,
ness.
After.
The companies must file with the
public service commission and keeI
open to the public schedules showins
ell rates and charges. With such
public record. inequalities and unfair
ness are apparent. Changes In rates
