When the report of the State treas
urer was received here with the shape
of the corporation taxes stated which
will come to Fairmont, it was found
to be less than was received last year
and less than what had been esti-
mated to come to Fairmont next year.
Would it be wise to vote away the in
come derived from license under these
circumstances and thus place the city
in position bordering on bankruptcy?
Hotel men agree that It will be
impossible for them to run their hos
telries with any semblance of profit
without the saloons. AS 1t is now
the hotels are conducted at loss
which is made up by the money re-
celved from the saloons. To vote
against license means, then, to close
up the Fairmont hotels unless the gen
tlemen who conduct them are patri-
otto enough to run their business at a
loss.
A town without good hotel is rid
lculed by travelling men and avoided
by visitors. Campaign is coming on.
Bryan and Teddy may both speak
here. 1t would be disgraceful indeed
II Fairmont had no modern hotel in
which to entertain these gentlemen.
Dozens of important political confer
ences will be held here during the

held in some law Office on account OF
the hotels being closed? Vote for IL

the hotel men and go on record as ia

THE ENGINEERS VIEW.

The Cincinnati Enquirer, demo-
cratic newspaper has repudiated VIM.
J. Bryan in the following editorial:
News from the west, from all the
country west of the Ohio river, gives
ample evidence that in every state of
that vast region the republican party
has divorced itself from the element in
its ranks that opposed or failed to
heartily approve of the policies of
President Roosevelt
What has been termed radicalism
is now the orthodox faith in each of
the states of that section, and the ma
tional convention Endorsement of that
administration and its policies is rap
idly being ratified by the party in
county, district, and state primaries.
The anti-Roosevelt forces of the
country today in no state of the union
have any political standing or hold up
on the voters of the party.
THE bold utterances, the loud criti-
cisms, the abuse and revilings of poll
ticians and representatives of business
interests have suddenly ceased as
against these policies. backed as they
now are by the party's candidate, the
party Endorsement, popular approval.
magnificent crops, and a renewal of
prosperity.
Western republicans have not for
gotten that the pioneers security from
the sweeping flames of a prairie fire
was to kindle another that the wind
might send it swirling ahead to clear a
refuge, leaving nothing for the ap.
preaching blaze to feed upon. They
seem 10 have put this into political
pactice throughout the west.
1t is the same play of politics that
saved the democratic organization in
1896, when the storm of popular antag.
onism to the second Cleveland admin
istration had swept in 1893, 1894 and
1895. nearly every state in the union
into populism or repubIicanism. This
may save the west now to the repubh-
cans. The men run over by the party

machine will remain loyal to their par
~. They may be today Of as little
influence in party rule as the gold
democrats in 1896 in their party. but,
unlike the gold democrats, they will
oganize no bolt, but in doubtful states
and secure states will vote the Taft
electoral ticket.
With Bristow's Interpretation of
republican doctrines in Kansas: Cum
Minis standing for Roosevelt policies in
Iowa; La Follette's teachings upheld
as party faith in Wisconsin; the Lin
coin Roosevelt league active in Cali
fornia; the personal staff of Mr.. Taft
standing solidly for the same policies
and teachings in Ohio, there certainly
seems to be no reason for any radical
republican to leave the party and there
is no sanctuary open for conservative
republicans that offers better protec-
ton than the reconstructed old home
1t is difficult for an onlooker to see
how the democrats can gain rcpubli-
can votes in the west under these con-
ditions. Their chance was there three
months ago. but the republican new
alignment surely is now barrier.
MIR. Bryan can offer no greater in
ducements than are now offered upon
the bargain counter of the republican
party in the west Not an important
radical republican leader has bolted
his party. Why should he under
such favorable conditions to radical
ideas? Not an important conserva-
tive republican can leave. for all other
doors are closed to him.
1T does not look so favorable to the
democrats in the west as it did one
month ago, a fortnight ago, or week
ago. The last few days the western
republicans seem to have corralled
their voters

this tube is inflamed you have rum

the result. and unless the inflamma-

eight years he has served his country
and forty-eight years he has served it
well.
No more interesting and profitable
book has been written as a record of
patriotism. than his Sailors Log"
1t is the story of a man who placed du-
ty ever before self and duty to his
country was the conspicuous keynote
of his life.
Robley Evans was born in Virginia
The had the hardest struggle that man
ever had at the opening of the war of
the rebellion. He chose his country
rather than his native state. rather
than his kindred. all that was dearest.
That he was henceforth aisowned by
his family was nothing in his eyes in
comparison to his devotion to his coun-
try. Only one who has been born in
sunny, happy Virginia, where every
family is related to every other fami-
ly. in the state can know the heart
tearing of that time.
Fighting Bob"-that name means
all that is best in the American navy.
The business of the naval officer is to
fight and fight well. Bob has
fought a good fight-he has shown up
in war as fighter to the last drop of
blood. He displayed the same quality
in the hospital when they wanted TO
cut his leg off, he threatened the sur
geon with his revolver. He has

has fought for his men that they be
made comfortable. And the sailors
loved him for what he is, a fighting
man. And the American people love
