The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1908-02-19

For clear understanding of the sit
uation as it is seen to-day, let US look
at the country geographically. We
have certain well defined political
areas.
/. New England, six States. with 50
votes in the Republican national con,
vention.
Q. The states with "favorite sons,
five in number (New York, Pennsyl
vania. Indiana. Illinois and Wiscon'
SIM, with 256 votes in the convention
8. The South, or States almost Ger
taInly Democratic at the election
(omitting Maryland and Missouri)
twelve in number, with 266 votes in
the convention.
4. The remainder Of the North
West and coast States and the terri
tories, twenty-three States in all. in
Guiding Maryland and Missouri, with
SSS votes in the convention.
Total number of States. 46; total
number of votes in the convention,
s92; necessary to nominate. 497.
Now 1t is a remarkable fact that in
all this great sweep Of country classii-
fed under the fourth clause, only one
candidate appears to have any CON
siderable strength. He is Taft, the
asplrant whose following up to this
time has assumed truly national as.
pect.
Information of truthworthy charac.
ter as to the choice of the delegates
from the States in this great belt,
sweeping from ocean to ocean. and
beyond the two oceans, sums up as
follows:

But in my judgment it is not toe
early for figures. Public sentiment
and political action have already gone
so far that in a great part OF the coun
try we know how the votes are to be
aligned, almost jas well as we shall
know month or two months hence
President making is our great nation
al game, and every four years we all
delight to take a hand in it. We read
with avldity all news that tends to
foreshadow the outcome. Having pref
ty good opportunities to learn what
is going on in the country. give the
readers of The Record-HeraId sum
mary OF most Trustworthy information
gathered up to this time.

FEARFUL ITCHING
AFFL|CTS FAMILY
For Six Months They Suffered Tor
tures-Patches Of Humor Became
Raw-CouId Hardly Sleep Med
icaI Treatment Did No Good but
TWO SETS OF CUTICURA
CURED THEM IN TEN DAYS

Last February my sister broke out
with a humor which gradually spread
to the rest Of the family. I being the last
to take it. 1t manifested itself in
patches varying from the size of pea
to that of silver dollar. The joints Of
our limbs were most affected. The
parts where the skin was tender soon
became raw and irritated and we were
able to sleep but little because the itch
ing got so bad at night. My sister con-
suited physician but he was unable to
name the disease and the treatment he
prescribed did no good at all. As the
warm weather came on We were tor
tured worse than ever, the irritated
parts causing us to scratch until they
would bleed. In August, when it was
at its worst, my sister was given
cake Of Cuticura Soap. This she triec
and it afforded so much relief that I
bought the complete treatment, con-
sisting of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura ONT
ment, and Cuticura Pills. This we
used according to directions and imme-
diately the humor began to disappear.
then bought another set and the whole
family were cured by these two, the
blotches disappearing in ten days: Al
ter this we used the Cuticura Pills for
ten days more to be sure that the humor
had gone to stay. We have not been
troubled since and we all think that II
it had not been for the Cuticura Reme-
dies we would have been suffering yet.

STRIKE NAY Be CALLED
FAILURE TO RENEW INTER
STATE AGREEMENT MAY
RESULT IN STRIKE.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 21.-A
gigantic strike of coal miners which
would in two months exhaust the
entire coal supply of the country
and result in the greatest fuel fam
inc ever known in the United States,
is one of the possible results of the
convention here of the United Mine
Workers of America.
That the convention will be the
most important in the history of the
United Mine Workers, not only to
the miners and the operators, but to
the public at large, is certain. 1t will
mark the retirement of John Mitch
ell, admittedly the worlds most in
fluential labor leader, from the pres
idency of the organization, and this
alone is sufficient to make the meet
ing a memorable one.
AT this convention the question of
renewing the interstate agreement
! will be taken up, and il is the pos
hible failure of settlement of this
problem that may bring about the
greatest tie-up of the coal mining in
dustry ever known in the United
States For many years the miners
have been attempting to secure the
adoption of set day for all agree
ments between the mine workers
and operators to expire. BY this
means. the union, when seeking
for incretased pay or improved
conditions and failing to get the de-
sired results, might be in a position
to Act as unit and cut off the entire
coal supply simultaneously all over
the country, thus forcing the mine
owners to meet their demands. With
"a universal agreement day, the pow
er of the United Mine Workers
would be doubled. The operators
realize this and will fight any at
tempt to secure it's adoption.
While both the miners and the
operators declare that they desire
peace, both sides are actively engag-
ed in preparing for war, and the sig
nigcance of these preparations is not
to be mistaken.
John Mitchell's retirement at
this time renders the situation all
the more various. With his firm
hand removed from the helm, there
may be breakers ahead for the Uni
ted Mine Workers. The candidates
for the successorship to Mitchell are

W. B. Wilson, the present secretary
treasurer, and Thomas Lewis, the
vice president While both are ia
miliar with the workings of the or
ganization and are able men, neith-
er is likely TO come up to the stand
ard set by President Mitchell, who
combined conservatism with fear
lessness and ability in his manage
ment of the affairs Of the organiza-
ton. That the United Mine Workers
OF America mas a membership of
nearly half-million and has become
one of the strongest labor unions in
the world is largely due to the eff
forts of John Mitchell. who built up
the great army of underground toll
ers with only a weak and inefficiently
organized body of men as a nu-
cleous.
