THE President is having real trouble
trying to straddle the breach between the
regulars and the insurgents. The chasm
is so wide that he cannot comfortably
bridge il and so deep that he knows
what will happen if he falls into it.

THE formal announcement of the cam
didacy OF Hon. VIM. p Hubbard to sue
coed Senator Nathan B. Scott in the
United States Senate will create intense
interest in West Virginia. The people
regardless of party will be gratified to
have campaign in which Mr.. Hubbard
will figure, for he is man of towering
ability and his candidacy will perhaps
mean change in the political methods
in West Virginia which have been so dis
credltable in the past. II is needless to
say that If he should be elected to the
Senate West Virginia would be represent
ed by a statesman different from the poll
ticians whose only reputation is that they
are cunning manipulators, and Our State
would command the respect OF the nation
accordingly.
Mr.. Hubbard'S proposition that MEM
bers OF the Legislature be selected by a
primary vote is an admirable one, and no
fair-minded person should object to it..
The people have never had an oppor-
tunity to express themselves in the choice
of a Senator. He would give them such
an opportunity and is willing to abide by
the result.

THE President has reappointed our
friend and neighbor. Hon. Geo. M. Bowers,
OF Berkeley county, to be Commissioner OF
Fish and Fisheries for anotherterm. Mr..
Bowers has already filled this office for
twelve years, and his reappointment is a
deserved tribute to the efficient business
administration that has distinguished his
incumbency. Under his managementthe
fisheries bureau has become a very i'm
portant feature OF the governments bust
ness, and he has done great work in
building up the efficient organization that
means so much TO the people of the
United States. We congratulate Mr..
Bowers upon this renewed recognition OF
his valued service.

THE international Harvester Company
the trust that controls the manufacture
and sale of practically all the farming ma
chinery in the United StateS-haS just cut
fine, juicy melon to be divided among
its stock holders. After meeting all ex-
penses. putting aside large sum TO the
reserve fund, and paying handsome div
idends to the stock holders, the trust an
nounces that IFS net earnings for 1909
were over Sl4,000,000.
The International Harvester Company
has a capitalization of Sl2O,OOO,OOO, a
large proportion of which is, of course,
water, for no one with common sense
makes any pretense to believe that the
actual investment in the company comes
anywhere near this vast sum. Yet, after
paying dividends on this tremendously
inflated valuation, there is left over more
than $l4,000,0O0 OF money which has
been filched from the farmers OF this
country. The directors will increase this
amount to 100000 and then diStrib-
ute it to the stockholders in the shape of
additional stock.
This announcement makes plain to the
most obtuSe farmer the way in which he
is being bled by this trust He already
knows that he is forced to pay vastly
more for his machinery and implements
than they are worth-now he knows why
this is {: that the stockholders may in
crease their gains beyond all reason and
become rich quick off of his hard learned
money.
What makes the situation still more
bitter is the fact that the International
Harvester Company sends its goods TO
oil parts of the earth and after paying
the transportation charges sells cheaper
in foreign countries than at home. Also
it is no comfort to know that the company
is controlled by ]. Pierpont Morgan, that
eminent financier of New York who is
already rich beyond the dreams of avar-
ice.,
You wouldn't think that any farmer in
the land would vote for the party respon-
sible for such conditions. Yet right
straight along, with full knowledge OF the
facts, they march to the polls and cast
their ballots for the standpatters.

We cannot say that this plan strikes us

better qualified to manage such an exam

IN Cleveland, Ohio, a movement has
been started that promises to have an i'm
portant bearing on the exorbitant prices
OF meat and other foodstuffs. 1t is a boy
colt against the meat trust, and is grow
ing tremendously. Fully 10000 men in
Cleveland have signed a pledge to alb
stain from meat for month, and each
day there are large additions to the NUM-
Der OF boycotterS. 1t is an absolute cer-
tainty that Cleveland will be swept by
the sentiment, and it will extend all
through Ohio and probably be taken up
throughout the country. II is predicted
that prices will be brought to their prop
er level very soon if the movement be-
comes general, for already pork has drop
