NOTHING BUT WORDS.

The Morning Meddfer used many
words in trying to hide its position on
the questions which we asked It sew.
eral days ago and for once 1t succeed.
ed in accomplishing Its purpose. The
people know nothing about its posi-.
ton on local option and the submits
sion of the prohibition amendment
and are not at all certain as Ia where
the Democrats stand as to the assess
ment of public service corporations.
The nearest an answer that was made
in the two columns Of words was the
admission that there is some good in
the new tax laws anil, therefore, we
are left to draw the conclusion that
the Democrats do not favor repealing
Them in toto as they once said they
would. 1t certainly is encouraging
when Republican measures have so
much merit in them that the Demo-
Gratis agree not to repeal then at the
first opportunity. That is making

The West virginian said that the
record Of the Intermediate Court
shows that certain candidate on the
Democratic ticket, when the mother Of
nis children asked him for money with
which to buy his children bread re-
piled that he would give money to buy
collins. but none for bread. The West
virgin;an was a little wrong in its
statement. The record shows that his
wife esked him for money TO employ
a doctor while the children we're sick.
He replied he woull give money to buy
three collins, but none to pay doctors.
We apologize for the mistake.

Judge Taft is not an explanatory
man, but an explanatory man. He IS
not denunciatory, but analytic. His
mind does not ring, but it thinks, His
nature is not pugnacious, but con-
ciiiatory. His attitude Is not that of
an opponent, but that OF an Intelligent
and candid friend. His instinct Is 10

matter what they think or say about
hlm-to abhor the Sin, but to deal
