BOOSTING sLUEFIELD.

Sundry members of the Chamber OF
Commerce have criticised the Leader
today for printing Col w. II. Conmans
interview in regard to the adoption OF

opinion in the matter merely stating

columns of the Leader are open to
discussions of this nature and anyone
who desires to take a hand is welcome
to the space without cent to pay. It
is not our fight and We are not taking

SATURDAY AFTERNOON, JUNE
NO ROTTEN RECORD.

1t is high time for the Democrats of
Mercer county, the seventh senatorial
district and the fifth congressional dis
trict to begin to Timber up and get
their candidates in the field. There
are fighting chances, and chances with
the odds on the Democratic side all
the way down the line. a great many
Democrats concede tne nomination
and reelection OF Hughes to Congress.
but il must be conceded that this is a
Democratic year i'm the light of preli-
minary skirmishcs which have already
been pulled off We are neither a
prophet nor the son OF Il prophet. but
we are deducing from the expression
OF the people in several instances that
they are tired of Taftism. Cannonism
Aldrichism and all the isms which APP
pertain to the looting and plundcring
of the natiou. Mr. Taft is genial.
globular, good natured man. but ne is
owned. controlled and operated by the
trusts If We may oe pardoned for
DEPRESSING a bit it has always been a
puzzle to us why MIR. Taft became the
Roosevelt candidate for the presiden
cy.. That Roosevelt, the alleged trust
buster, should trot ont a man to be.
come the tool of the trusts is rather
beyond comprehension 1t is barely
possible that Mr.. Taft has undergone
change OF heart, but it is more than
lifely there was the preparation Of
political trickery Taft may have
known something on Roosevelt which
forced the intrepid Colonel to trot him
into the arena
But this is somewhat off OF the line
Of conversation We would like to
see the Democrats Of this locality bes.
tir themselves. Let us get together.
talk the matter over, and put good men
in the field. We have them all right
and we do not have a rotten record
to explain away.
