than $3.50 900, 900 at the end of the
next fiscal year"
This big balance on the wrong
side of the ledger is attributed part
ly 20 the falling off in revenues,
caused by the hard times, and
partly to the increased government
expenditures. The governm ent ex.
penses for April, 1908, for example,
were nearly SI2. 600, 600 IN excess
of its expenses for the same month
OF 1907. Not a few papers regard
this increase as extravaganza.

He FIops7

In an interview which has been
sent out from the Swisher head
quarters in Clarksburg it tells us
that our esteemed and genial in
surgent friend, Senator Sam b.
Montgomery, has forsaken the
Scherr banner for the Swisher FLAG.
If he has we think he has griey-
ously erred. We shall not ques-
ton the motives which prompted
the senator to trail into the Swish.
er camp. We take it that the step
was not taken without due con-
slderation and deliberation on the
part of the senator.
The question arises, however:
Can the senator convince the anti
ring and anti-machine Republi.
cans of Preston county that 1t is
to the best interest of the party
that they should follow Montgom-
cry into the Swisher wilderness.
We hardly think so. The two
thousand and two hundred votes
which Montgomery was gwen in
the recent primary was vigorous
protest against ring rule and ma.
chine methods. For these Repub.
leans to surrender TO the ring
and the machine would be a fatal
admission on their part that the,
were not sincere in their opposi
ton to ring and machine domino
ton.
If the expression of anti-ma
chine Republicans can be takel
as criterion it is not a matter O
speculation as to the course the,
intend to pursue. The leader
may so through the artistic flop
but the rank and file intend I,
continue the fight for right anc
Justice.

backward instead of forward, that
you are blue and impecunious and
that you are pressed for money, and

court officers. People love to trade
and do business with a concern that
IS prosperous, growing, pushing,
succeeding, and that is optimistic.
Buyers, like sheep, flock together.
