PRESIDENT TAFT
TO Be NEUTRAL
But Action Regarding the Fairmont
and cIarksbure Postoffiees Looks
Like Favoring Senator Scott.

Washington. April THE Presi-
dents decision not to act upon Rep
r~esentatiye Hubbard's recommended
tons for postmasters at Fairmont and
Clarksburg until after the election of
a Senator to succeed Senator Scott, Is
said to have been reached after a pc
riod OF wavering which has kept the
West Virginian in a constant state
OF anxiety as to what might happen.
At various times he is reported to
have reached various decisions re-
garding the matter but this last n is
supposed to be final. In spite of the
fact hat by retaining in Office men
whom Mr.. Hubbard wants out ii APP
pears that the President is lending his
moral support to Senator Scott, it is
said that his intention is o remain
strictly neutral, and to refrain from
any action that might be construed
as aiding either candidate for the SEN
atorship. He is said to consider any
action upon recommendations which
are opposed as are included to- show
favoritsim than the retention of men
whom one side is trying to get out
and the cher o keep in.
Following out this course of rea-
soning it may be safely said that the
same policy is. to obtain in regard to
Mr.. Hubbard's recommendations
which meet with opposition from Sem
ator Scott and it is surmised that
practically all of them will e opposed.
On the other hand Mr.. Sturgiss' ap-
pointments are going through. The
Senate has confirmed the appointment
of David E. Watson to be postmaster
at Tunnelton, succeeding Mrs. Mont
gomery, and the President is said to
have assured Mr.. Sturgiss that the
nomination of e. c. Henshaw to be
postmaster at Martinsburg Will be
sent to the Senate in a few days,
While the Senators from West Vir-
ginia are said to have assured Mr..
| Sturgiss there would not be any oppo.
| eition on their parts to the confirma-
ton OF Henshaw.
The Terra Alta appointment went
to the President after the others and
is exepced to be reported to the Sem
ace in a few days.t

BOUNDARY LINE PROBLEM.
Supreme Court to Be Asked For An
Extension Of Time.

Washington, April 5.-In the matter
of an agreement between Attorney
General Straus. OF Maryland. and At
torney General Conley, of West vir-
ginia, to select three members OF =
commission which will definitely n
the boundary lines between M~arylan,-
and West Virginia, under the recent
decree Of the Supreme Court OF the
United States, the two attorney gem
erals will appear inthe Supreme Court
probably mex Monday, and ask for an
extension OF time in which to agree
on the commissioners. The decree OF
the court gave Messrs. Straus and
Conley 40 days In which to select the
commissioners. A fortnight ago
Messrs. Straus and Conley met but at
the request OF Mr.. Strauss all action
was postponed until tho Maryland
legislature should have adjourned. Il
Is understood that the legislature, be-
ing now adjourned Messrs. Straus and
Conley are ready to take up the mat
ter OF selecting the commissioners.
but they will ask the court mex Nom
day to grant them further time. There
is no doubt that the request VIII be
complied with.

II RuMsEY SITE.
Hard to Find Good Location For the
Monument at Shephe rdstown.

Hard to Find Good Location For the
Monument at Shepherdstown.
Since the meeting of the Rumseyan
Society in Shepherdstown last week,
the matter of selecting the site for
the proposed Rumsey monument has
been discussed by many represents
tive citizens Of that place, who are in.
terested in the matter from a public
and civic standpoint, The consensus
of opinion seems TO prevail that the
high ledge of rock at the old railroad
bridge, while from a sentimental view
point is ideal, yet from a practicable
one the selection of that place is not
held in high favor by some. With
the property in that nelghborhood un-
der control by the railroad and indi.
viduals. 1t is pointed out that the lo-
cation long held in mind by some
will not be as desirable as II may ap'
pear.
To many the proper place for the
monument to placed in that town, in
the absence of a public park at the
river, would be upon the lawn on the
old campus, where 1t could be seen TO
advantage by both residents and yisi,
tors.

STATE REALLY OWES
VIRGINIA NOTHING
Morally This State Owes Nothing TO
Virginia and Will Contest
Claim to the End.

From The World of Thursday:
In discussion of the Virginia debt
question it has been assumed that the
state of West Virginia must necessar.
lily pay any judgment rendered by the
United States Supreme Court. Al first
blush it seems that this assumption Is
the proper West Virginians do
not wish to appear before the world
as repudiationists. They do not wish
to have the credit and good name OF
the state attacked. But there are
strong reasons why West Vlrginians
should resist to the last the payment
OF any portion of the Virginia debt
certificates regardless of any verdict
found by the Supreme Court.
In the first place, West Virginia did
not contract this debt. Not a single
holder Of the Virginia debt certif-
Gates eve advanced a cent of money
to the state OF West Virginia on its
name and credit. In the second place
the state of Virginia has repudiated
the greater portion of her debts and
one by refusing to pay the Virginia
debt certificates. Third, the Virginia
debt certificates are today held almost
entirely by spectators who have pur-
chased them for a pittance and who
bought them for a speculation. know
ing at the time they did so that
their validity was contested and that
their standing was recognized In no
way by the state of West Virginia.
NO buyer of these certificates could
claim to be an innocent buyer. Ths
men who bought them bought a law
suit and did it deliberately. Their
situation is entirely different from
that Of an honest creditor who ad-
anc n hundred cents on the dol
lar on the faith and good name OF a
state.
Through the technicalities OF legal
procedure the holders OF these certiii-
Gates may be able to obtain some sort
of a judgment against West Virginia.
But morally West Virginia owe them
nothing and on that ground West yir-
ginia should take her position and
make her stand.
