Shall We Sheer at Honestu?"

The business men of the past
have sympathized with the efforts
to eradicate from the business
system of this country the influence
and control of those who have
achieved success by illegal methods.
Is all this to be changed by the
panic? Is 1T proposed, because Of
1t, to repeal the rate bill? Shall
we dismiss the prosecutions for the
antitrust law? Shall we permit
and encourage rebates and discriml.
nations by railways? Is this the
condition of sanity to which we
are invited to return? Shall we
JOIN In the sheer at the fight of the
administration for honesty and
legality in business as youthful
attempt at an alleged moral regen-
Grafton of our business system? No
panic, however severe, can make
wrong right. No men who sim
cerely believed the administration
right In its measures to punish
violations of law can now be turned
from the earnest support of that
policy today.-Wm. III. Taft at
Boston.

1t is not for this paper to say
whether the state committee had
the right to seat the Hearne dele
CATION from Ohio county in the
state convention, as we have no
evidence before us from which we
could form a conclusion based
either upon fact, precedent or
legality, but we have formed a
conclusion In regard to Mr.. Hearne
who played SO conspicuous a part
In disrupting the state convention
and that conclusion is not very
complimentary to the gentleman
from Ohio county. Mr.. Hearne
was until few months ago com.
paratively unknown political guam.
tity In West Virginia and little
was heard of him until he became a
candidate for governor, apparently
In good faith. He was hailed as a
clean man, sound republican, and
not a politician or Office seeker in
the common acceptation of that term
These traits were admirable. They
looked good to Ohio county. The
reflections Of his rising star shone
brightly over the state and it
seemed almost unkind to soil his
angelic robe by dragging 1t through
political campaign. He perse-
vered In this seemingly laudable
course until his fair mind and un-
furnished political conscience re-
belled at some Of the ungodly cam
palgn tactics of an opposing candl-
date and withdrew from the race.
SO much for Mr.. Jekyl. Had he
quit here be would have still had 4
high place in the eyes of his con
stituents and in the councils of his
party, but Mr.. Hyde appears upon
the scene. Through a motive the
Lord only knows what, he re.enter-
ed the race and brings discord not
only 70 his home county but assists
IN spreading the dis,ention abroad
over the state. 1t was not until
Mr. Hubbard put Mr.. Hearns upon
the witness stand that his insincer-
lty became fully manifest and when
the robe Of his republicanism was
pulled aside showing that he had
been carrying concealed political
weapons and that only four years
ago dealt his part y fearful stab in
the back by voting against Mr..
Dawson for governor HE political
hyPJcracy Of course became plarino
ly apparent.
he showed bis baby nature when
be Withdrew from the race ba
classed himself with the kinder.
gartens when he re-euterod the
race with the determination TO plav
or break up the game, and demon
strated the tact that be bad not vet
attained biz political manhood when
he admitted shat he voted against
the regular nominee Of bis party

EVERETT LEFTwICH,
Secretary.

In ye olden times, when county
and state republican committees did
not take 1T upon themselves to pass
on contests we had fair conventions.
and when one failed to see the man
of his choice nominated he went
home satisfied and worked Just as
zealously for the election of the
nominee az if his choice had been
successful; but now when the
committee sometimes it is the
county committee and sometimes
the state committee)meets before
the convention and fixes up ''roll
OF delegates, " it is different. WHY
not leave all contests with the
committee on credentials? Is it
right, isit just that contested dele.
gates be allowed to take seats IN 4
convention aud vote on whether or
not they shall be given their seats?
We should say not.

DR.. DAY RELIES ON FOOLS
Says Fllldl Extravaganza Checks
Concentration of Wealth.

DR.. James r. Day, chancellor of
Syracuse university, told the
mem bers of the Hari9m branch of
the Young Mems Christian ascot
alton recently not to be fright
ened by the story that FIVE or
SIX men were accommodating all
the wealth. He declared that in
many instances this wealth was
distributed after the death Of
the man who accumulated it by
foolish sons with mania for
automobiles and other luxuries.
and daughters who purchased
titles.
II hope you are all employed
and at good wages" said DR..
Day, "but if you are not now
you will be in a little while. l
am optimistic on the future of
our country. 1t is too big to
stop long. We were frightened
for while, but that was all,
and if you are not working now
you will be In a short time.
Don't be disturbed by the
nonsense that five or SIX men are
going to take all the wealth in
the world and put it in their
pockets. You may be one of
these very men tomorrow. But
the Lord takes care of that pretty
we'll. The wealthy men have to
die and they very foolishly
leave their money to their
families instead of to Syracuse
university.
''But the Lord takes care of
that by making many of the
sons fools, who go iE for auto.
mobiles, expensive establish
ments and other things, so that
it eventually gets back to you.
Then there are the daughters who
help to distribute this wealth.
Of course, it does not all stay in
America, and they sell them
selves for a title. 1t is a hard
thing to think; but women ere
sold :or titles today, and there is
as much a market for them in
this country as there ever was
market for women in the Orient.
"ADd these women get such
specimens Of royalty-of no use
to themselves or any one else.
the Lord is giving an exhibition
of how bad some of these things
can be, and it certainly should
inspire hope in American young
men. Some sales are not turn
ing out as profitably as it was
thought they would.
"Do the big things, do them as
well as you can. If you can, be
richer than your neighbor, but do
not steal. Do the great things,
and say to every man, do not
try to stop me being great and
big
81 believe the country is grow
ing better all the time. l do
not believe there are as many
dishonest men in the country as
there were month ago, but
there are more than there will be
next month. But this decrease
is due to the power of the Cos
pei, and not Legislation. Con.
gress is not making us better,
and no laws will make saints of
ne.
"Wouldn't you rather live
here than in Heaven? 1 would.

anything you want here; you can
live under 4O-odd governments,
meet all the nations of the
world, eat all the fruits of the
