graph, and from the examples mem
toned therein the small list OF men,
who areitrying to disrupt the Repub-
lican party may well feel ashamed OF
themselves and their course:
According to the enemies OF the
party this year Judge Nathan Con,
who generously furnished the state
Republican committee quarters free
Of charge in Clarksburg. is wrong in
wishing his party success this fall.
Ex-Governor Atkinson, our first Gov
ernor since the days of Democracy,
he too is drong in espousing the
cause of his party ticket in this state.
Senator Stephen B. Elkins is also
wrong, very wrong, and Senator Ma
than Bay Scott Is wrong. and Hon.
George G. sturgiss is wrong for being
nominated by straight Republican
convention, and William H. Taft is
wrong, and everybody is wrong but
these men who set up a NEW party.
Thousands OF prominent men in West
Virginia, whose Republicanism has
never been questioned, are WRONG,
according to the boilers, and THEY,
only are right.
1t depends somewhat upon whose
OK is gored.

Baltimore Interested.

The mine inspector Of West Vir-
ginia reports product of over sac
100000 from the mines of the Noun
tain State during the last year, says
the Baltimore Sun. This is half as
great value as the total production
of all the gold mines of the United
States, and three times as great as
the product of the gold mines Of
California. The discovery OF gold on
the Pacific coast more than half
century ago attracted people from
every quarter Of the world and made
California famous as the"Golden
State" And yet the annual product
of the gold mines of California dur
ing the decade from 1850 to 1860.
when the golden tide was at the
flood, was no more than $55,O00,000
year. And West Virginia is just
beginning to develop her boundlcsS
subterrancan wealth. Heretofore the
ccnter of the mining industry has
been, and still Is for that matter, in
the state of Pennsylvania. But the
mining industry of Pennsylvania has
reached the high water mark. and
when there is any change it will be
to recede. West Virginia, on the
other hand. will go on increasing
for an indefinite period as new fields
are developed.
Baltimore is deeply interested in
the development of thcMountain State
whose eastern panhandle Is less than
10 miles away from this port. Much
Maryland capital is invested in the
mines and timber lands and lumber
| industry Of West Virginia, and the
railroad which penetratcs deepest in
to her richest mining region and
most luXurant hardwood forests is a
| Maryland road with its terminals
in Baltimore. The Monumental City.
I therefore. as the nearest and most
accessible seaport to West Virginia.
| has every right to expect share Of
the prosperity which is dug from
the wooded hills whose stones are
iron ana which are underlaid with
black diamonds, and which has
streams OF oil and illumination by
natural gas.

Prominent Democrats speaking OF
the anti-Negro plank in their state
platform say that it took the conven-
tion by surprise, when it was read,
and would have been smothered in
the resolutions committee room, had
the convention known what was do
ing. But, after 1t was read, there
was nothing else to do hut finally
adopt it as the poison had been
spread by the publicity of its being
read and the fact that the committee
on resolutions had approved 1t. II
IVES a slip that even Democrats real
ize will develop into gulf for the
Democratic party.

are In the class OF those whose educa-
ton was neglected IN their youth
This is a menace no honest. fair
minded, liberty-loying citizen can af-
ford to overlook. Your white neigh.
Dor may not have the education you
have. he may not even be able to read
or write. yet you know him to be a
good citizen--one whose experience
and common sense make him capable
Of discussing and analyzipg the ques-
tons of the day social, moral, pollt-
ical, religious and civic, perhaps, bet
ter than you, and surely equally as
well.
The simple fact that he has not
been favored with education is no
reason he should be cut off from
voice in the government, OF which he
is constituent part and which he
as property owner and taxpayer
helps to support. Indeed, he is
factor in life, factor in the activity
of the state, factor in the citizen
ship, and to disfranchise him wuold
be to cut his citizenship off.
1t is an un-American principle,
recognized as such from the forma-
ton OF the government and by those
who cried out that taxation without
representation was tyranny.
Many Of the forefathers were able
neither to read nor write. Many
OF the pioneers OF this state, who sac
riflced their blood in opening up the
forests and making OF the state al
place fit for the abode OF civilized
man could neither read nor write, yet,
II such lived in this day, the Demo-
cratic party would cut them OFF from
citizenship and subject them to a
bondage worse than the African slav-
cry which SO long disgraced a nation
Of free people.
Studious effort will be made toI
create the impression that there is
no need for alarm along these lines,
but that effort will fail, for the dan
ger is threatening as all must realize,
when a political party claimed to he
made up of men sane in mind resort
to this method, because slight per
cent. of the voting population of the
state is colored. The danger threat
ened is all the more serious because
the movement is made not for the
of eleYating the elective
franchise but for the SOLE purpose OF
placing and entrenching political
nu tNy In tn1 Nv I
ceeding in that effort, the party adj
vocating 1t would become so desper-
ate to keep itself dominant and in
control as to take an even more braz-
en- step, in which 1t would trample |
further and more numerically on
the right OF citizenship, until possibly
1t had eliminated all opposition and
obstacles.
Liberty-loving citizens of West
Virginia, all the myraids OF honest,
hard working, home-loving people Of
this grand state, can not and will not
submit to this threatened danger, nor
can they let the danger go ahead I'M
checked until 1t is too late to protect
their rights, save their homes and
protect themselves from the imposi-
tions, hardships and outrages such a
danger carries with it.
Remember that it is not alone the
Negro who is threatened but all citi-
not bowling the knee and
paying homage to those who have
come forth to usurp the rights of the
people and reign over them like the
cruel monarchs of old, when serfdom
the great masses.
