Things political will at once take on
a much more lively attitude when the
word is passed around that Hon. w.
S. Meredith has entered the race for
the nomination for Senator in the
Eleventh Senatorial district to succeed
the Hon. Jos, H. McDermott now pres
ident of the Senate.
Mr.. Meredith is too well known to
need many words at ou~ hands. He is
a profound lawyer, deep thinker, and
a forcible speaker, ranking with the
brightest legal lights of the State. Mr..
Meredith would not only make-an able
Senator, but in him is to be found good
Congressional timber. He Is broad
minded, liberal in his views and a man
upon whom the entire party could
unite SHOULD he receive the nomina-
tion.
From his long experience at the bar
he is well quilted to pass upon the
needs of our system of law and his
profound legal ability would enable
him to judge as to the.constltutionality
of law before a whole session of the
legislature Is spent in getting a meas.

To the Voters of the city Of FalrmOnt,
and the Public:

To the Voters of the City Of Falrmont,
and the Public:
We are advised by our attorneys
(wEo are among the best in Fairmont) /,
that the submission to popular vote
OF the license question is neither au-
thorized or required by any law, and
that popular expression on the sub
iect, has no valid or binding force.
Much has already been made Of the
proposed vote on a question the re-
suit o. which amounts to naught. We
do not propose to engage in what must
necessarily he an unseemly scramble
for votes on the license question when
the result thereof, whatever 1t may be,
has no part in the control of the grant
ing or refusal Of licenses. BY law
and the Charter OF Fairmont, the right
to grant or refuse license Is vested
solely in the City Council. We will
not participate in the popular vote on
the subject, but will refrain from yot.
ing thereon. We most earnestly re.
quest and urge all friends Of license
not to consider or vote upon said ques.
tion.

OVER THE COMING OF THE AMER

WASHINGTON, March 14.-Japan is
prepaHing for war. No doubt any long
er exists in administration circles as
I tofthat fact. What the activity Of the
1ilkado's government may mean is far
less certain. 1t may indicate one of
several 3eventualties, but as to the
main question there is no doubt
information reached this govern
nient months ago that the Japanese
are exercised about the trip of the
great Atlantic fleet to the Pacific. OF
colirses the diplomatic exchanges be-
tween the American government and
Japan concerning the trip were open
Iy. friendly and amicable. Japan even
went 50 far as to express graitica'
ton that Admiral Evans fleet was to
Visit the Pacific, and perhaps call at
ome Japanese ports.
1t has been evident. ever since the
great fleet started on its long cruise.
1 that the Japanese were watching the
movements closely. The Oriental sus-
plcion was aroused. The eastern ma
tlons characterlstically are always
looking for 'the bug under the chip"
The Japanese.4astlcularly never take
anything for granted: They have to
bs shown. Suspicious by nature and
WHY by instinct, they always are on
the lockout for the thing they would
be likely to do In the same set of cir
cnmstances. Absolute frankness is
unknown to them.
with great flourish about posst-
. BILE war with China. the. Japanese hur-
1iedly began military and naval prep
araticns It's navy was placed on -
war footing. Immense quantities Of
ammunition and supplies were placed
on board all vessels. It's army began
to whip itself into form for any result
that might come and various war
1 ships were dispatched under secret or
ders.
ut is incredible" said an official of
the state department, that all these
preparations should be making for pos
slble trouble with China over an Incl
dent like that Of the Tatsu Maru."
That appears to be an impartial view
offhe matter. Japan is preparing not
80 much for China as for America.

PUNISH CRAFT
AFTER SIX HOURS DELlBERATIoN
JURY BRINGS IN VERDICT OF
GUILTY AGAINST ALL.

HARRISBURG, Pa, March 14.-The
Jury in the first of the capitol consplr-
acy cases to be tried gave verdict OF
guilty as to every one of the four men
who have been on trial here for the
last seven weeks, last night, after six
hours delIberation. There were only
two ballots taken. but the jury did not
come into court until over two hours
after reaching a conclusion.
The men found guilty are: John H.
sanderson, contractor; William P.
Snyder, ex-auditor general; w. l..
Mathues, ex-State treasurer. and James
NJ. Shumak er. superintendent.
Motions for new trials were made
as to all of them. The jury came into
court at S:52 and a minute later Fore
man Dunkle announced that they had
agreed upon a verdict, It was read to
the court and then aloud. The, jury
was not polled, but when the clerk
read the verdict, conWcting all of con.
spiracy, each man gave his assent by
nod.
Moved for New Trials.
Immediately after motions for new
trials we're made on behalf of each Of
the defendants. Only Sanderson and
snyder were in court when the verdict
was given and neither would talk.
None Of the counsel for the defend.
ants would say any thing about the
case and the States attorneys, when
questioned, merely said they were
pleased over the result of their hard
work.
The maximum penalties for each de.
fendant in this case Is two years I'M
prisonment and $1,000 fine.
The four men were convicted Of de-
frauding the State in furnishing the
new capitol, which cost the State about
s13 100000, instead OF $4.000,00O, the
figure at which the contract was estl.
mated.
The Prosecution
OF the alleged frauds was the outcome
of the political upheayal in Pennsyl-
vania in 1905. which resulted in the
election Of William H. Berry. a Demo.
crat, as state treasurer, in the fall Of
that year.
Berry threw open the books of the
State treasury and showed that the
cost of building the capitol was more
than three times the amount of the
contract
The case was laid before the attor.
ney general, and Indictments were
found against fourteen persons.
When the cases now pending against
the four persons who we're convicted
yesterday are concluded, the other de.
PENDANTS will be heard. The State
claims that there are frauds amounting
to nearly $5.OOO,O0O in the furnishing
OF the capitol.

PHONE BULLETIN SERVICE
Full and Accurate Election Returns over
 Southwestern Lines.

While the election bulletins were received over the Western Union wire in this city last night, it must be said that the free service given by the Southwestern Tele- graph & Telephone Co. over their long. distance phone wires was su- perior to the high priced news ob- tained from the telegraph company. Manager Frisby installed phone in the Crystal Theatre and copied the returns which were constantly going over a wire directly connect ed with Memphis. The bulletins received by him from New York were especially good, even though they were intensely discouraging to the Democrats. The Southwest ern service was in most cases over an hour ahead of that furnished by the Western Union.
