ON CONTRACT
WITH SALEM CITY
For Ten Thousand Dollars
By the j. E. Wright
Company.

A suit was instituted in the circuit
court late Saturday afternoon
against the City of Salem by the j.
E. Wright Company, of Wheeling.
in which the Wheeling concern will
seek to recover damages OF $4,000
on contract for street paving en-
tered into some years ago by the
Salem municipal authorities and az
forwards ignored by them. The
contracting firm is represented by
Attorneys Joseph Hanlan of Wheel
ing, and John Basel. of this city.
The suit grows out of the action
of Ex-Mayor Ernest Randolph's ad-
ministration in making contract
for street paving with the Wheeling
contractors at time when no funds
had been realized with which to pay
for the work, The blunder of the
authorities came out few months
later after the contractors had be-
gun work, when it was found that
the contract had been entered into
in violation of law.
1t is believed that members OF
the city government OF Salem con.
nected with those who made the
contract with the Wright Company
will undertake to compromise the
suit.

A few facts about it are OF interest

road means much to West Virginia.
and the following from the New

The Virginia Railway, organized
In April. 1907, travels through one
OF the richest bituminous coal fields

rive its chief sustenance from this

ton OF the Deepwater Railway and
the Ttdewater Railway. which had
been under construction In desultory
fashion for years before Rogers
gathered up the loose ends. OF the
$4o,Ooo.oo0 used up in building the
road more than half came from
Rogers's pocket. The first public
financing was done when the road
was more than half completed.
The road is said to be the las,

MOORE VERY
EASY WINNER
Republicans Sweep Almost
All of the Platter
Clean.
WATER WORKS BOARD
Is to Be Constituted of Two
Republicans and One
Democrat.

That confident smile the Republi-
cans wore at the close OF the polls
Tuesday evening did not have to con-
vert itself into a sad one. To the
contrary the Republicans are in fne
humor, as they practically swept the
platter clean at the city election.
Not single candidate ON the gem
eral ticket did they lose and they are
satisfied with the pluralities and ma
jorlties. Regret is expressed BY them
over the defeat OF Messrs. Wilson
and Legsett. Democratic nominees for
council. whom the Republicans en-
dorsed. But. their defeat as the re-
turns show was largely the result of
the violation OF good faith on the
part of the Democrats. Surprisingly
few were the straight Democratic bal,
lots cast. There were ten OF these In
the Fourth ward and only few more
than that number in the Fifth, and ~
was In these two wards that Messrs.
Wilson and Leggett were candidates,
respectively.
Owing to the fact that there were
three tickets in the field and further
by the fact that an unusually large
amount of scratching was done, conf
plete returns were late coming in. and
the exact figures were not known, I'M.
til nearly midnight.
As a sample of the knitting done by
the Democrats OF their own candi-
dates, attention is called to the Fourth
ward. where only ten straight Demo-
cratic votes were cast. There were 3!
scratched tickets and of these say
half were Democratic. That gives
Wilson % Democratic votes in a ward
that is nearly as much Democratic Us
Republican.
The following were the winners:
For mayor, Frank r. Moore.
For chief of police. Harry L.
Brooks.
For city clerk. VIII H Cole, re-
elected.
For superintendent of streets, Ed
ward j. Doyle.
For collector and treasurer, John r.
Steel, reelected.
For members of the water works
board. Ernest 7. Weir, Truman j..
Lynch and Will H. Lewis.
For assessor-John l.. Kearns.
For school commissioner, Arthur
X. Thorn.
For council. First ward, Patrick j.
Leyden; Second ward. W. b. Robbins;
Third ward. Charles NJ. Ernst: Fourth
ward. John d. McReynolds; and
Fifth ward, Austin S. Smith.
The Republican victory is a trl-
umph for progressiveness and ac-
vancemcng. and there will be no re-
trenchmcat or cur;ailment Of inl-
provements as were sought by the
Organized ccpos lion.
Citizens generally are expressing
much confidence in the incoming
administration. which will begin
the third Monday in this month and
all feel satisfied next year is to have
proud chapter in tine history Of
municipal government here.

CHANGE OF ApDREss-When
Insurance Supervision.

In an article entitled Insurance
Supervision and National Ideals" In
the April number OF The NORTH
America Review. Mr.. Darwin p
Kingsley, President of the New
York Life Insurance Company. pre-.
sents strong argument for the su.
pervision OF insurance by the federal
government. Mr.. Kinsley outlines
the constitutional history of the
country In an attempt to show that,
from time to time, certain preroga-
tiyes have been transferred from
the State to the National Govern
ment through process of intrepre-
tation of the Constitution in re-
Spouse to National needs, and
through interference which was nee
essarydn order to carry out the gem
eral powers Of government. Mr..
Kingsley points to the hardships
which the business of insurance is
compelled to suffer in consequence
of the fact that 1t must obey the
behests OF forty-six different legis-
latures, and he pleads that the bust
ness must suffer grevious harm I'M
less and until its superintendence isl
transferred from the multitudiousI
rulers to the central government of
the country. The supreme court has
decided that the nature of the in
surance business is such as to pre-
clude such transference, but Mr..
Kingsley believes. for reasons
which he explains, that the court
will change its decision should It
have occasion to reconsider the ques-
tion. He says:
We have moved on into what is
almost new world. We are facing
new problems. We are facing the
future development OF NATIONAL
ideas. We cling as tenaciously as
our forefathers did to what we call
the right of local self-government
what we are now and then asked to
give up seems to us much more vital
than what they were asked to sur
render in the general interest. We
nave the most extended railroad
transportation in the world. The
use of the telegraph and telephone
has extended throughout the nation
Many important types of business
are organized on continental lines
The question, then, is: When we in
sist on what We call local self-gov-
eminent as against the obvious sig
nificance of such facts as these. are
We not as shortsighted as our fore
fathers were IL they had carried
their opposition to the Constitution
further than they did? The fact is.
we are still entirely devoted to local
self-government. But what is local
seif-government? When business
naturally extends over all the states
OF the united States. is 1t local self
government to attempt to regulate If
in forty-six different places by forty
SIX sovereign authoritieso Under
these conditions. is not the local lde,
plainly encroaching on the natioua,
prerogatiye?"
