Differences in Planks.

The Republican state platform
openly declares that the Republican
state convention favors the passage
by the next legislature of resolu-
ton submitting to a vote of the peo-
pie an amendment to the constitu-
ton prohibiting the liquor traffic in
the state.
The most that can be made out OF
the Democratic state plank on the
subject is that that party, If in con-
troll of the legislature. believes the
people have right to petition for
the passage of such resolution, but
that party does not say that IL
would pass such a resolution without
being petitioned to do so.
The Republican party makes a
positive promise on this subject
while that of the Democratic party is
one of hesitation and doubt. The
former is voluntary, while the latter
is involuntary. The former would
give the people chance on the ques.
ton, while the latter would only act
when forced to do SO by the people.

To Organized Labor.

Nowhere in the Democratic state
platform can be found a single word
expressing the belief of that party
that the laboring men have a right
to organize. Every 1aborer, who
does not accept this, should scan the
platform for himself and he will
then be fully convinced OF the truth
fitness of the assertion just made.
On the other hand there stands
out boldly in the Republican state
platform the declaration that the
workingman has undoubted right to
organize. The Republican party in
West Virginia recognizes that right
and does not hesitate to say so.
AS party policies and principles are
those expressed in platforms which
are accepted as the basis for official
action, union labor may readily see
which political party is It's friend in
this state. Union labor need not go
beyond this action, into details and
other issues of the two parties, in
which the Republican party does
more for 1t than the Democratic par
ty, to fully make up its mind which
is its friend.

The New Paper.

The Telegram and all other Repub-

Virginia rejoice with the Republican
party that that grand old county OF
Monongalia, whose loyalty to the par
ty OF Lincoln, Garfield, Mckinley and
Roosevelt, never in history wore a

months, during which the party was
betrayed and plotted against by those

camp.
The occasion for this rejoicing is the
appearance of the Morgantown Re-
publican, a new newspaper, which an
nounces its purpose to be to uphold
and advance the cause of the Repub-
lican party in especially the county
of Monongalia, and the first numbers
are full of the party doctrine such as
Archie Campbell wrote in his day.
That it Is sound in doctrine and has
only the good of the Republican par

It's pages can doubt, and ringing with
true Republicanism all Monongalis

year the hails from the working
places are getting longer; and che
longer the haul, the more wear the
