Looks Like SCherr.

1t looks now like Auditor Scherr
is practically assured of the guber-
Material nomination. Several days
ac;; the Wheeling IntelligeDcer, an
administration organ, attempted to
give an impartial comps. OF
the vote between Mr.. Scherr anu
Mr.. Swisher at that time, In which
10y giving Ohio county to Mr..
Hearne, made the Swisher delegates
just equal the Scherr delegates,
plus the Hearne delegates, Ohio
county, but in that comparison 1t
gave Mr.. Swisher all contested
delegates, it only allowed Scherr
three In Lewis county, where he
gets at least five. Since that time
MIR. Scherr has secured the solid
delegation from Pocahontas, Min
go, Webster, Richie and Braxton
counties, while Mr.. Swisher failed
to get single vote from either of
those counties, unless it was one
in Pocahontas county. Mr.. Scherr
also secured three more delegates
in Wood county than Mr.. Swisher,
which puts him ahead Of Mr.. Swish.
er, not counting Ohio county. But
then it is conceded that Ohio county
is for Scherr, and there is no rea
son why Mr.. Hearne, after with.
drawing from the race and giving
the county executive committee
power to select the delegates from
that county, should try to again
enter the race in the interest of Mr..
owlsher, In order to try to prevent
Mr.. Scherr from obtaining the dele.
gates from that county, which
would undoubtedly secure his nomi
nation by large majority. Wheth-
er Scherr or Swlsher is nominated
it must be done fairly and honestly
as the people will not stand for any
trickery. From the very best in.
formation we can gather from
conservative sources Mr.. Scherr
will go into the convention a,
Charleston with a majority of the
delegates, and all that the people
ask, is fair play and a "square deal
and they won't stand for any other
kind of a deal. They are in nc
mood to be played with. Stick a

Sdus Democracy Has Gone to H.

New York, June 13.-David b. Hill.
former United States senator and for a
long time leader of the democratic party
in this state, sailed for Europe today ON
the steamer Baltic. Discussing his re-
tirement from active politics, Mr.. Hill
said:
'There is no democratic party. When
l met the late Gov. Altgeld in little
room up a back stairs in small Chicago
fotel shortly before the first so-called
Bryan convention l told him that the
policies which he represented would
drive the democratic party to hell.
Then, when he begged for another try

there; stop before you have absolutely
ruined the party, but Bryan was nomi-
mated as saw the futility of minority

OPPORTUNITY Is LOST.
admit that the republican party is
badly disorganized. There was an on.
portunity, but fear that it has been
overlooked.
Now both sides in the coming political
struggle will have to go to the masses
for their votes They must draw from
the masses, and what better man could
stand against the man representing the
power of patronage than John Johnson.
VINO spent his boyhood days in a county
poorhouse?
Think of it! Torchlight professions
with banners reading John Johnson, the
Poorhouse Candidate From what |
have been able to learn, Mr.. johnson is
more than mere near-to- the-people
candidate. He is Well balanced man
and an able man.
The democratic party never wanted
Mr.. Bryan. Mr.. Bryan wanted the
democratic party. He forced himself on
the party i'll 1896, and what was left of
the party in 1900? And now in 1908 he
calls himself the democratic party and
says, L have kept the faith"

REPRESENTATIVE JOHN w.
WEEKS of Massachusetts, a member
of the new finance commission and
of the house banking and currency
committee, is of the opinion that
congress will not get report from
the new commission until late in
1909, when the 61st congress is in
session. The work of the COM
mission Is one of the mos. compre-
hensive ever undertaken by any
similar body and involves an In
vestigation of the leading financial
systems of the world, which means
an enormous amount of work. In
replying to Senator LaFollette's
objections that the terms of the
bill are too broad in allowing "any
securities" to be deposited for
emergency currency Mr.. Weeks
said: "Such criticisms of that
particular feature of the bill are
due to prejudice and lack OF know.
ledge rather than to sound bust
ness reasons. In taking out clear
ing house certificates in the past,
banks have always hypothecated
their best securities, and there Is no
reason to suppose they will not
continue to follow that policy"

PAY FOR TUBERCULAR COWS.
Bill Will Probably Be Submitted With
This End i'm View.

A plan to dispose of tubercular
dairy cows is being worked out by
the state dairy commissioner. The
state pure food department will not
allow tubercular meat to be sold I'M
der the pure food law and the dairy
commissioner will not allow sales of
milk from tubercular cows so that the
dafryruan is left with worthless
cattle on his hands. 1t is probable
that a law will be presented to the
farmer a small sum for his tubercular
cattle, about enough to make the diff
ference in value of a good dairy COW
and what the carcas is worth for the
oils.
There has been a great controversy
over the state about this question be-
tween John 3. Baker, state live stock
sanitary commissioner and the pure
food department. Mr.. Baker main
tanned that there was no law to pre-
vent a dairyman selling his tubercular
cattle to a packing house or butcher.
Then the pure food department an
nounced that it had law to prevent
the sale of tubercular meat to the peo-
pie. Then the dairy commissioner be-
gan getting city ordinances passed
preventing the sale of milk from
tubercular cows. This left the far
mer with his diseased cows on his
hands worthless and it is considered
proper by many that he should re-
ceive some pay for his cows when the
state prevents their sale.
If dairy herd, or part of it were
condemned as a dairy herd and then
the dairymen tried to sell them to a
packer and the meat was afterward
ordered destroyed by the government
or state pure food inspectors the
packer could recover from the dairy
man, while if the cattle We're sold
and the farmer did not know they
were tubercular the packer would
have to stand the loss.
