dend paying stock. For clearer def.
milton. the average earnings should be
based upon the entire stock, and not
upon the best paying portion of 1t. un-
less there is some reason why the
$4,000. 10000 representing the "a per
cent should not have received any divi-
dends at all.
In the final paragraph of the edito-
rial 1t Is stated that should not be
allowed to pose as business man.
having no interest in common with
the shippers" Inasmuch as my con-
Germ shipped an average of $780, 900 tons
Of finished product during 1906 and
1907. and we were obliged to receive
more than $500 tons Of iron to fur
nish this. plus enormous quantities of
coke. coal and other supplies, can
safely claim to have shipped in and
out 100000 tons year. and as there
are no railroads who can afford to haul
this material. or any part Of 1t, without
having revenue from 1t, an increase
Of 10 cents ton on my hauling charge
would amount to $4,000 and. there
fore, have business" interests In com.
mon with other shippers" The 100000
tons of finished product shipped repre-
scented in the neighborhood of 100000
900. This $10,OOO.O00 represented most
ly labor. with the exception Of the
cost of the ore and coal in the mines.
All the balance was made up of wages
and profit on the different conditions
OF the raw material until 1t was fin
ished product.
My Illinois plants produced 60 per
cent of this amount. or $6.000,000 a
year. For three years our Chicago
plants have not run more than half
capacity. Therefore. there was $4,000
900 year less in distribution because
OF n corresponding shrinkage In sales.
As most of our iron and coal comes
from Illinois. this $4,000 900 year was
not distributed In Chicago, as would
have been the case had We worked on
the same output that we did in 1906
and 1907. And a. great deal of that
s3.000000 which was not paid was
taken out of the business firms stu
ated in or near Chicago by the non
purchases from their varied business
on the part of the community that
would have received the 100000 a
year for three years. That is the rea-
son why have a right. as business
man. to deprecate any unfair or un.
called-for obstacles that are placed in
the way of my business and the hun.
dred other varieties OF business in this
country that are affected by the money
put into circulation by the railroads
When 1t is further considered that my
business constitutes but 10 per cent
Of the cost Of car and that there
were nine other units similarly affect
ed. most of which would have been
tributary to Chicago. anyone can see
how important 1t is TO his individual
interests that the railroad companies
should have ample funds to make these
improvements and purchases, and will
realize how comparatively easy 1t will
be to stand a reasonable advance on
the freight for any material he will
need. II he is receiving increased

he would have used his influence to
get that appointment made. Instead
of doing so he worked the wires to
defeat the ambition of his fellow
townsmah, quite without regard for
the interests of his constituents 1t
was the act of an utterly selfish ma
chine politician:
The third instance in which sena.
tor Scott had played 10th ends against
the midled and had tried to do the
voters by being on beth sides of the
same question at the same time was
in. connection with the direct primary
bill In the last legislature. Again, and
again the senator has declared him
self'lp favor Of the direct primary, yet
his secretary Appeared at Charleston
last winter lobbying against the pas
sage OF bill that had been specifcal.
ly approved as a party measure by 4
Republican convention. That opppsi
ton is largely responsible for the fact
that the Republicans of West Virginia,
are not permitted to indicate directly
their choice for the United States SEN
ate. It may be that the senator will
stand without hitching" but these
three cases seem to indicate thatshe
will always beardwatching.

Marion county candidates seem to
be "scacer" than the proverbial hens
teeth, SO far as the House Of Delegates
is concerned Everybody wants to
run for Congress. But somehow the
people don't seem to be taking much
interest in the congressional race.
Aside from the chirp OF a candidate
now and then the matter is scarcely
ever mentioned. The selection Of a
Congressman is very important and
we hope to see more interest taken in
the question soon.

In his Carroll club speech at
Wheeling MfaHTbbard sscited three
specific instances 81 discreditable dis
ingenuoGsness 'as exhibited in the ipo-
: litical conducttof -his senatorial. oppo-
nent. Speaking 81 the Clarksburg
4 postofice contest at the time that he
had secured an order for Mr.. Denham's
removal, the Congressman said:
Senator Scott came to me after
had secured the ,postmaster's re-
noyal ana stated that he thought it
was a fine thing and that he wished
he could hays ;had the credit of doing
it. Immediately after this he went
to the postmaster general and asked
that the ordersof removal he set
aside. Further he, as senator. of the
United States, requested the postmas-
ter general mot to let anyone know
what he was doing, II anyone choos-
les to deny this, I will prove it, by let.
tiers written myself.
The second case of political chican-
cry cited had to do with Mr.. Hub.
bard's committee assignments. Among
the other distinguished services for
which Senator Scott claims credit in
connection with bis senatorial career
is that Of having assisted in securing
large appropriations for the improve.
ment Of the Ohio river. In this work
he had always had the valuable CO.
operation Of Congressman Dovener, a
member OF the rivers and harbors com
4inittee Of the house. When Mr.. Hub.
bard took DoveHer's place the senator
evidently thought he saw a chance to
\ appropriate the entire credit for Ohio
{ FLYER improvement from that time
forth, SO he used his influence with
the Aldrich-G Cannon leadership to have
Mr. Hubbard excluded from the COM
mittee assignment Of his predecessor.
MI. Hubbard says:
WhenI was first sent to congress
the people Of this section were anxious
that I should have the same position
4 on the rivers and harbors committee
as was held by Mr.. Dovener; recon-
nendations to That effect were sent in
byS hundreds and yet Senator Scott
q went to the Republican leaders Of the
house and told them that he was very
anxious that ! should not be placed on
that committee,
Il goes without saying that the PEG.
pie Of the First district would have
preferred to retain for their represen.
ytatiye the strategic advantage in the
house which the assignment OF Mr..
Hubbard to this committee position
formerly held by Mr.. Dovener would
i carry with it. Had Senator Scott
been sincerely working for the inter-
ests cfshls constituents in that matter
