LOG ROLLING LEGISLATION
A NATIONAL DISGRACE

They are having not times IN tne
Senate. 1t is charge and counter
charge They have even been able
to get their barbed arrows through
the alligator hide of Aldrich and
penrose, and raised the question on
the later as to the place he spends
hi sew snings, and make them fret and
squirm. This demonstrates that the
debate isn't one-sided, or at least
1t isn't on their side, although the
''log-rolling" may be. That log-roll-
ing is a disgrace TO the American
people. Instead of deliberating for
the public welfare they trade out for
special interests and amaze the
world with an exhibition of peanut
politics and thimble-rigging and dick
ering craftsmanship. But a careful
readi1 1g of the Congressional Record
discloses the fact that such Senators
as Culberson, Borah, Beveridge, La
toilette Bacon, Clapp, Raymer, Bur-
ton, Clay, Dolliver, Bristow, Gore
Johnson and a few others are expos
ing every rotten movement, bring
ing to light all attempts to graft
and gouge, and while they are regu-
larly voted down by the hog CON-
bine" Yet the facts are up TO Presl-
dent Taft so fairly, so clearly, so full
ly, so conclusively, SO overwhelming
ly, that he cannot sign bill raising
duties on gloves, stockings, cotton
weaves and other articles and mega
lively refuse TO reduce the tariffs on
those goods which he promised should
be reduced withou' violation Of his
plighted faith with the people. 1t is
now all in the open. President Taft
must keep faith with the electorate
or he will be subject to serious crit
icism.
1t is our judgment that the public
will not take the Aldrich bill as it
stands tor such reduction. But we
shall see. The country is rubbing
its sleepy eyes and waking up. 1t is
beginning TO take notice of the work
of the log-rollers at Washington; also
OF the statesmen there. And soon
there will be formed a large opinion
about IL. This thing of levying a
heavy duty on lemons to the disad-
vantage of all the people and for the
benefit OF a few lemon growers in

tended benefit of the beet sugar pro-
ducers when most of those factories
are run by the thieying trust, or on

SELECTING CANDIDATES

This is the time of the year when
political bees begin to do their buzz
ing and this year is no exception to
the ones which have gone before 1t.
The bees are at work and 1t is evil
Gent tnat some Of the men Of Ma
ricn have been stung. Now they are
looking for the friends who are
willing 70 rub the spot and silence the
pain.
This year in Ohio Is different from
the ones which have gone before 1t
in that the selection OF the men who
are to make the race for public offices
must come closer to the people before
they are given the right to get into
the fight. Formerly the convention
plan has prevailed and, while it
served in a way to register the
wishes vf the people, yet it was not
nearly so successful in this regard
as the primary plan will prove
A delegate convention has been
handled in some instances, of course
not in Marion, but they have been
handled just the same After the
convention has made the nomination,
party pride has served to cement any
factions which have been made and
the party nominee, even though he
may not represent faithfully the
y party which nominated him, has rid
den into Office.
Under the primary system which
becomes operative this fall, 1t rests
with the people 10 make the nomina-
tions and If they are not what they
should be, then the people themselves
are to blame.

CAR SITUATION IS
VERY GRATIFYING
Increase of 17,707 Loaded Cars
OH New York Central
in One Week.

The car situation on the New York
Central lines looks exceedingly crafty
Ing. The weekly bulletin Of the COM
pany shows an increased demand for box
cars. and last week there also was a
marked increase in the demand for furni-
ture cars over the previous week There
was an exceedingly good demand fol
auto and refrigerator cars, but the de-
mand for stock cars was about the same
as the week previous.
There was very perceptlbe decrease
OF Idle coal cars last week over the week
previous. There was heavy loading oi
coal I'm Pittshurg and there was also q
heavy demand for coal cars. There was
an Increased loading of fat cars at the
quarries apd other points.
In general there was an increase in
loaded cars on the New York Central
lines last week OF I1.T0I over the week
previous, This situation speaks well FOR
the financial condition of the country and
shows that il is rapidly overcoming the
furry OF a year ago.

WORK PROGRESSING
ON WESTERN PACIFIC
Will Be Opened Up for Traffic
by the First of the
Year.

There now exists practically no doubt
nul mat the Western Pacific railroad will
be completed by September 1, although
1t may not be opened up for traffic much
before the first of next year. There stlll
remains little more than 200 miles OF
track 10 be laid, and n force of 1000 men
Is now engaged on the work.
At the present time almost the whole
force is at work in Nevada and Cali
fornia. In the former state there are
three gaps TO be closed UP. and in the
latter. one. a number OF these gaps in
clude bridges, on the greater part OF
these four gaps the grading work has
been completed and the tunnels have been
bored, and all that remains TO be done Is
the laying of the track.
There still remains considerable ballast
Ing to be done. however. and, according
TO an official of the road. IL is not likely
that sufficient rolling stock can be Sc
cured TO put the road into operatio be-
fore the first OF the year. despite the
fact that large orders for locomotives and
cars have already been placed.
