THE Best Ever"

Andrew Cernegie has given to the
newspapers an interview in which he
declares that the Payne Aldrch tariff
law is the best ever placed upon the
statute books. OF course il is "the
bestiever' for Mr.. Carnegie as well as
for other tariff barons who provide the
republican party with its campaign
funds.
A certain republican editorial ex-
plains to those who are in the dark on
this subject just why Mr.. Carnegie is
so deeply in love with the present
republican tariff law. In its issue of
May IS, 1902, the Chicago Tribune, re-
publican, had an unusually interest
ing editorial entitled "The Arrogance
Of Wealth." The Tribune was consid-
erably disturbed because Andrew Car
negie had offered to pay $50 600, 900 for
the Philippine Islands provided only
that he was permitted to assure the
Fllipinos that they would be given
their Independence. The Tribune said
that the steel magnate "has tried the
patience of his frIeads severely in some
of his late bids for notoriety;, that he
Is constantly posing; and has "scatter-
ed libraries broadly throughout the
country, all of which are TO be called
for him, and every one Of them is q
contribution to the conscience fund.- !"
Then the Tribune explained:
"Mr. Carnegie made his money in a
magnificent way, but he should never
forget that he made it through the
undue favoritism of the government
of the United States. Owing To the
discrimination practiced in his favor
by the tariff, he was enabled 10 amass
a fortune of two hundred millions of
! dollars or more, most of which came
out of the pockets OF his countrv-men
through the operation Of unequal laws
| Much has been said Of the benefit
arising to the workingmen from the
establishment of the Carnegie works
The beneficent tariff system permitted
the works to survive and flourish, but
there are some people who have mo-
forgotten the Homestead strike, MOI
the outrageous manner i'll which tn,
worktngmen were treated at that time
by employers whose brutality has sci
dom been exceeded in the history o
labor agitations.

We refer to the matter Of a sewerage
system for the town. A resolution was
adopted calling on the president of
the board to appoint suitable com
mittee to enquire in the cost, estimated
income from the plant and the advisa-
bility Of the town issuing bond for the
work.
No one will deny the importance OF
the matter aud the great need in that
direction. 1t is the one thing needed
most by the city and if the board can
devise some plan for bringing about
the sewering of the town it will have
given the town one of the richest bless

mittee will push the matter and if it is
possible let us have the improvement.

Commenting on the charges of
bribery and corruption in connection
with the recent senatorial election in
Illinois, the Psrkersburg Dispatch
News Republican says:
st is hoped that West Virginia may
escape the wholesale bribery disgrace
which at present seems almost cpl
demic throughout the country. Money
used to help the election of United
States senator's in this state has so
far been pretty well covered up"
This is very serious charge against
the fellows who have been running
for the position of u. S. senator in
West Virginia of late years. This
high republican authority in this par
"graph practically says that Scott and
.lktns have been buying their posi-
.cns in the legislatures which have
elected them. And really when it
comes down to fine points does not
about every body think as this farless
editor on this subject? Whel men pay
more for offices than they can get out
- it not a pretty good indication that
here il something rotten? And then
again wont the fellow who buys his
way into the United States Senate
bout as quickly sell when he can get
good round sum?
