GIVE IT BACK?
Editor Palladium a:


May have permission through your
valuable columns to ask the good citi-
zens of Richmond, dear slumbering
souls, that, as in the case of that
CHASTITY cut across the fair brow of
Glen Miller the earstwhle beautiful,
| is it the intention to awake to a post
mortem mass meeting, after another
| and 1.-The most unkind cut or ALL" the
surrender Of our magnificent Reid Me-
| mortal hospital to the cold mercies of
machine politics, as will surely be the
case when the hospital is turned over
to the city municipal government. The
hospital saa precious and sacred gift
by our magnanimous citizen, Mr.. Reid,
to the citizens of Richmond; If he had
intended 1t to go under the municipal
government, he most surely would
have decided 1t to the city. The fact is,
the hospital becomes a private institu-
ton when political and medical
clique takes hold of its management.
Judging from the present attitude of
our honorable mayor, it is presumable
that, as Is not improbable during this
unusual drouth, if our city should be
visited by disastrous fire destroying
many homes, the mayor would veto an
appropriation to feed and clothe the
starving and homeless people because
it might not be technically legal. If
we surrender the Reid Memorial to pol
itical grafticism, then why not turn
over the churches to the municipal
government also? 1t would relieve the
congregations from all responsibility
for there care and maintainence. 1t
seems to me, Mr.. Editor, that the more
candid and graceful thing to do, would
be to return Mr. Reds gift to him, say
ing, Dan, we thank you awfully for
your munificence, bu, then you know
we just really can't take care of it
financially" CITIZEN.

THE BIG STICK.

The state campaign has been so
clouded by the charges and counter
charges of the brewery and anti-sal-
DON forces, that the average man who
takes a drink has been led to believe
that he is the issue.
Such is not the case.
The issue in this state this year is
the question of brewery domination.
The question as to whether liquor
shall be sold. or not sold In localities
will under the law passed by the last
session of the legislature remain to be
decided by the people as it should be.
Brewery domination or Saloon Rule
means not so much whether liquor be
sold, but whether saloon men shall
engage in politics and run things in
such manner that they can evade
and disobey the laws of the state.
county and city without fear
Brewery domination means lawless-
ness and evasion. We saw what it did
in Springfield. Illinois, in the race
riots; we see what it does constantly in
larger cities. We see the city of New
York ruled by and for the saloon
keepers, who before their coming to
this country were ignorant and Hit
crate peasants. Corruption and graft
follow as an evil of saloon entrance
into politics.
Now county local option simply
means that when conditions grow
bad enough to warrant it, the saloon
can be driven out. 1t means that even
in communities where the town may
still be wet, the saloon interests will
take good care to obey the law and to
keep on good behavior. This, the lib
eral minded man who takes a drink
now and then must as a good citizen
realize.
Now as regards the present cam
paign. The republican party having

JUSTICE TO YOUR 1,nrENDs

1t must not be forgotten that there
Is a chapter of the Humane Society
in Clarksburg, fully informed with
reference to its duty and Its powers
under the laws of West Virginia.
Scarcely day passes but some act of
cruelty, to horses and dogs and other
animals, takes place, with It's appeal
to the humanity of those who walk
along our streets.
The law with reference to this
whole matter may not be as we'll un-
derstood as these frequent acts of
cruelty would seem to imply. The
appointed agents Of our humane so
ciety have all the power to make ar
rests for inhumanities and to pre-
serve the peace, which are by law
given to sheriffs and constables.
Where children are neglected or
treated cruelty, or made to beg on the
streets, or abandoned, or allowed to
associate with Idle and vicious per
sons, or II the parent is in constan.
habit of drunkenness or blasphemy,
or morally depraved, the Society,
through its agents here, can take the
children from their parents ar /.
place them in better homes.
These agents may also interfere Ia
prevent cruelty TO the lower animals.
Any person who obstructs or resists
these agents. in the discharge If this
duty, shall be fined or Imprisoned.
The law also defines its terms. and
specifies a number of instances OF
cruelty that come within the scope OF
the statute, such as abandoning, or
using when injured, disabled or dis
eased. or falling to provide food or
shelter. Especially does the law make
II the duty Of the humane officers to
prevent any overlooking or cruelty
beating and abusing of any domestic
animal.
On the eth Of August, last, it was
the writer's painful experience. at
the Horse Show. near the Greenbrier
White Sulphur Springs, to see a beau
tiful thoroughbred horse, drop dead
as he was being led from the track
where he had won mile race. The
horse jockeys said he died of heart
disease. but 1t was reported by those
who had seen and knew. that his
rider had goaded him to death with
a long sharp spur. under the excite

OF alluring rewards
This week goes out the report
from our own county fair, that an
