IN a speech few days ago Speaker
Cannon made vicious attack on. the in
surgent Republicans in Congress who are
opposed to him and his methods, and de-
clared that he was ready to fight them
Just as hard as he fought the Democrats.
He publicly declared that President TAFT
is in accord with him and his policies.
This is doubtless true, for the President
has made no denial OF comradeship, nor
has he indicated in any way diSfavor to-
ward Cannon. The insurgents. however,
are not easily frightened, and they an
nounce their intention of keeping up the
fight until they have purged the party and
the country of the corrupt politicians who
now dominate public affairs.
We believe these western Senators
and Representative who are opposing
Cannon and Aldrich to be patriotic and
honest, and we further believe that the
people of the country in general have
faith in them. More power to the insur-
gentsi

1T is said that in his forthcoming mes
sage to Congress President Taft will
make severe remarks concerning the dis
honesty OF the Sugar Trust officials and
employees. This won'tamount to much.
The Sugar Trust, which is composed OF
rascally thieves, won't mind verbal con-
demnation any more than highwayman
or chicken thief minds tongue lashing.
The way an ordinary thief is punished is
to put him where he has no opportunity
to steal. The one effective way OF put
ting an end to the dishonesty OF the Sug-
ar Trust is to take from it the privilege
granted it by the present tariff law to rob
all OF the people all Of the time.
But a Republican administration will
never do it.

1T is plain that the people OF the coun-
try are beginning to have serious doubts
about President Taft. While he has dis
tinctly refused to have anything to do
with those patriotic weSterners who ap-
pose the methods of the political pirates
who are running Congress in the interests
of the corporations, he admits by his 81
lence that he agrees with Cannon and AL
drich, the chief of these Indicators.
While he is trying to carry water on both
shoulders, the belief is growing that he is
entirely committed to the corporate In
terests rather than to the welfare OF the
people in general.

Doesn't Like Our Game LawS-No
Wonder.

New Castle, Del, Nov. q, 1909.
Editor Register have just arrived
home from a delightful visit in the dear
old Shenandoah Valley, among the best
people in the world, in my opinion.
was a little disappointed in one way with
my visit, and that was on account OF your
new game laws. have for the last thlr-
ty years been coming to Jefferson county,
and have always enjoyed taking a little
sport in the way OF fishing and cunning
It was not that was such a successful
fisherman or gunner, for never caught
many fish or killed much game, but !
liked to go just the same. But when !
was told what terrible laws the last Leg
islature passed | was afraid to go. have
relatives that own land in the valley, but
could not hunt on it, as was told, with
out a costly license and written permission
every time climbed a fence from one
farm to another. thought Delaware
game laws were strict, but they are moth
ing like so strict as yours. In this State
when there was no game law at all, we
had plenty of game, but since we have
game laws we have no game at all. In
my opinion, your game laws will not in
crease your game-only make hardship
on the citizens OF West Virginia, with a
few dollars more in the State treasury,
perhaps. enclose one years SubScrip-
ton for the Register. look forward
every Friday evening for its coming with
much pleasure, and wish for the paper
much success.

Louisville. Aug. 3-Little more than
an hour after Harry c. Pulliam, lac
president of the National league, lay
beneath the green sward of Cave Hill
cemetery, in this city. John Heydler ii
New York, secretary of the league
was chosen president in his place AT
a special meeting of the directors yes
terday.
There was some feeling. of which
President Charles Murphy of the Chi.
cago team was spokesman, that it WAS
indicate to name Mr.. Pullams sue.
cessOr at this time. but the leagues
immediate need of qualified head was
set forth so powerfully that the mag
mates yielded.
Besides electing Mr.. Heydler who
is to fill Mr.. Pulliams mexpired term
the directors concerned themselves
only with paying tribute 10 Mr.. Pull
remainder of his salary as president
iduring 1909 to his estate. and they ap
pointed Garry Hermann of Cincinnati
Barney Dreyfus of Pittsburg and Mr.
Murphy as a committee to select and
have erected in Cave Hill a suitable
monument to the deceased president
In addition to this. they, provided that
the players in the National league shall

Though there was no set eulogy pre-
pared by the committee. each magnate
spoke of Mr.. Pulliam as the squarest
man. in baseball and one who had
welded frightening influence over
baseball.
