/ believe that the officers, and es-
pecially the directors, of corporations
should be held personally responsible
when any corporation breaks the law.
There is a widespread belief among
our people that, under the methods
of making tariffs which have hitherto
obtained, the special interests are too
Influential. Probably this is true of
both of the big interests and the little
interests. These methods have put
premium on selfishness, and naturally
the selfish big interests have gotten
more than the selfish small interests.
The duty of congress is to provide
method by which the interest of the
whole people shall be all that receives
consideration. To this end there must
be an expert tariff commission, who'll
ly removed from the possibility of po-
litical pressure or Sf improper bust
ness influence. Such a commission
can find out the real difference be-
tween cost of production, which is
mainly the difference of labor cost
here and abroad. AS fast as its rec
concentrations are made, | believe in
revising one schedule at a time. A
general revision of the tariff almost
inevitably leads to log-rolling. and
the subordination of the general pub
lie interest to local and special inter
ests.

especially national, restraint upon IN

No man should receive dollar un-

If our political institutions were
perfect they would absolutely pre-
vent the political domination of mon
ey in any part of our affairs. We
need to make our political represen-
tatives more quickly and sensitively
responsive to the people whose sery-
ants they are. More direct action by
the people in their own affairs under
proper safeguards is vitality necessary,
The direct primary is a step in this
direction If il is associated with a
corrurt practices act effective to pre-
vent the advantage of the man willing
recklessly and unscrupulously (, to
spend money over his more honest
competitor. 1t is particularly import
ant that all moneys received or eX-
pended for campaign purposes should
be publicly accounted for not only
after election but before election as
well. Political action must be made
simpler easier, and freer from con-
fusion for every citizen. l believe
that the prompt removal of unfaithful
or incompetent public servants should
be made easy and sure in whatever
way experienceN~hall show to be most
expedient in any given class of cases.
One of the fundamental necessities
in a representative government such
as ours is to make certain that the
men to whom the people delegate
their power shall serve the people by
whom they are elected, and not the
! special interests. | believe that every
national officer. elected or appointed.
should be forbidden to perform any
service or receive any compensation

NOT TO MAKE TRIP
Sheriff Ellison is Sure the
Authorities Have the
Right Man.

General Boggs, secretary to Cover.
nor Glasscock, in charge of two
companies of troops, arrived at Welch
about six o'clock this morning on a
special train from Hinton, and imme
diately went to the county Jail where
they were met by Sheriff Wiseman
and Deputy Sheriff T. ]. Townsley.
Thomas Wayne the negro accused of
assaulting and numbering Mrs. John
Aliff at Quinamont last Sunday night
was awakened from the first sleep he
had had for two days and taken to
the train waiting on siding.
Everything passed over without a
hitch and the train was soon speeding
on its way to Charleston.
Governor Glasscock, according To a
telephone communication from Welch,
had anticipated making the trip to
Welcb, but friends persuaded him not
to go on account of his bad health.
When seen today Sheriff Ellison, who
accompanied the prisoner to Welch
sentative that IL the negro had made
confession he did not know of It.
but In his mind the sheriff stated
there was no question but what the
right man had been captured. A con
servative report from Hinton this
morning says everything is quiet there
today. and the citizens have come to
the conclusion to let the law take it's
course.
The prisoner will be held in Char
lesion until the feeling in Fayette
county has subsidized, then he will be
taken back and given a preliminary
hearing. II the negro secures coun-
sci, it is thought his attorney will like
ly ask for a change OF venue on ac-
count Of the prejudice in the county.

MANY APPLES
ARE SHIPPED

Winchester, Aug. 1S.-Winchester
and Frederick county fruit growers
have been very much surprised during
the past week by the unusually large
number of summer apples that have
been shipped from this city over the
two rail roads, and It was stated to-
day by Mr.. Bentley Kern, one of the
best informed apple dealers in this
ments have been six lines as great
as those OF former years. He said
that the crop of summer apples was
very large, and that excellent prices
were being paid in the city markets
for the fruit.
The firm OF Kern and Campbell,
alone shipped over 5000 barrels of
apples from Winchester last week, and
1t is expected they will ship as many
more during the present week. The
Sprint Produce Company shipped
nearly 1000 barrels during the week,
and several thousand baskets OF pea
ches. Robinson e. Bond and Mr.. John
Thwaite were also heavy shippers,
and man stationed in the Cumber-
land Valley Rail Road yards is also
shipping.
In addition to the apples. the ship
ment of peaches, plums and damsons
has been enormous during the past
week, and as a result the dealers have
their hands full attending to the busi-
ness.
