DOESN'T NEED 1T
Senator Watson Takes Step in Behalf
Of Navy and Southern Coal
Operators.

Washington, ID. G.. Feb. 25.-S ma.
tor Watson has begun a campaign in
the senate to have that body strike
cut OF the naval appropriation bill the
obnoxious amendment which In effect
porhibits the use Of West Vir-
ginia coal by the vessels OF the Amer
lean navy stationed in the Pacific
ocean. He has already talked with
several senators about the unfairness
os the measure not so much toward
the coal operators as toward the navy.
He is pointing out to them that the
secretary cf the navy in his last re-
port for the fiscal year 1910 stated
that The navy Is dependent Ia the
Pacific on coal shipped from the At
!antic coast owing to the fact that
unsatisfactory steaniing coal has not
yet bsen found in the Pacific coast
states. He is also pointing out that
the secretary of the navy in the same
report stated that by using west
coast coal the steaming rating of
ships would be decreased about TWEEN
~ points AS stated in the debate in
the house on Tuesday the coal used
in the navy canes almost entirely
from the Pccahontas and New River
coal fields and II Is TO see that the
navy has only the best fuel and at
the same time to see that the coal
operators of the southern part of the
state have fair treatment that Sena-
tor Watson las taken the matter up
and is pushing it. He IS confident eff
knocking out the Objectionable amend
ment in the senate.

BIG RECEPTION
Chippewa Council Degree Of Pocahon-
tas Celebrates Washington's
Birthday in Great Shape.
From The World of Saturday:

from The World of Saturday:
Chippewa council, No 81 Degree of
Pocahontas, celebrated Washington s
birthday last night in the twigwam in
Granthan Hall, and big time they
had, too. To be sure the squaws were
couple days late in concentrating
the birthday of the Great Father. but
that doesn't matter. About 200 people
We're present, each of the lit mem
bers being allowed to bring a Daleface
along, so that the capacity of the wig
wan was slightly stretched But all
had good time and they were sorry
when it was all over
Attending the celebration from a
distance were Miss Della Ditmar, of
Capon Council, Berkeley Springs, and
Miss Jessie Bradley, of Keyser.
This affair wasn't play of Ham
let with Hamlet left out, for George
Washington was there as big as life,
and so was Martha, toe. These nota-
bles were represented by Melvin Fry
and Miss Bessie Noll, respectively.
Now the wedding of these two wor-
thies was the big feature of the even
ing. OF course thsy were all dressed
up for this momentcus occasion.
Standing in front of the platform
George and Martha were declared
united, Bishop George Callahan per-
forming the mock ceremony in his
own inimitable manner 1t was all
very funny and much enjoyed
Then Washington figursd in another
incident of the birthday celebration.
This was his crossing of the Della
ware. Standing in a boat with that
dignified bearing that was Characters
tic of the man, Washington, surround
ed by his brave soldiers. was pushed
across the stage ready to fight the
Hessians on the other side. The boat
was on wheels, but a foot curtain
screened them from view so the de
lusion was quite complete
Another feature of the evening was
an impromptu address on the charac-
ter of Washington by Mr. Callahan
and which was well received.
Then came the supper. long
table extended the full length of the
room aad fine spread was set, the
decorations adding to the effect Be
ing entirely informal it was all the
more enjoyed The center of the table
was adorned with large cherry tree,
filled with candy cherries. They say
that CalIy Chambers cut down the
tree with his little Tomahawk and
gobbled up all the cherries. But be
that as 1t may the celebration was a
big success anyhow.

Road Work With Counties.

AS the appointment of county road
engineers had entailed burdens on
some of the. counties there was a gem
eral demand for some change in the
road laws, and in response to that de-
mand the Seibert bill changed the law
so as to leave the appointment of road
engineers to the option of the coun-
ties themselves. The State road tax
was wiped out and the amount already
collected from that source was order
ed returned to the counties. With no
road fund and little TO do but exer-
else supervision over the road build
ing and road repairing of the State,
the Commissioner of Public Roads be-
came a mere fgurehead and in the
final hours cf the Legislature the of
flee was wiped out.
That the legislature was not un-
mindful of what was expected OF it
was further demonstrated by the
change of the beginning of the assess
ment year from January to April l.,
as accomplished in the Mclaughlin
bill, introduced and passed as the scs-
zion was drawing to an end. The 1909
legislature, republican in complexion,
had refused to make the change. AS
the law stood it worked a hardship on
the farming class especially. This al
so was democratic measure.
Net being able to effect all the re-
forms it desired in the fish ana game
law, the majority succeeded in the
passage of the MacCorkle bin of re-
l;eving hunters of dollar hsad tax,
which was enriching the State Treas
TRY at the rate of $4,000 a year. Per-
mits tc fish and hunt under the Mac
Corkle bill viii be required only on

ornor does not disapprove the bill.

Review of Session.
In retrospection the Legislature OF
1911, Notwithstanding that it was han
dicapp5d by an evenly-divided Senate,
accomplished more than was fully APP
parent while it was in session re-
deeming nearly all its party pledges,
making economy paramount 20 every
ether consideration. reducing taxation
end giving to the people CT the State
many reforms.
If every prediction promise was
not redeemed. it is pointed out, it was
because of the disadvantage under
which the Legislature labored. From
the outset the democratic majority
was handicapped in not having COM
plete control of all the departments
OF the State government and by loss
of two weeks time. This executive
was a republican, enc branch of the
legislative arm of the government
Overwhelmingly democratic, but with
Senate half republican and half demo-
cratic, For two weeks after the time
set for the Legislature to convene tn
republican senators played truant.
Many measures of merit. despite the
disadvantages under which the dem
ocratc house labored, were of demo
cratic origin and were in fulillment
of prediction promises During the
1910 campaign the democrats com
mitted thems Ives to an Employers
Liability law. a just and fair Local OPP
ton law submission eff the brohib-
ton amendment, a perfected Registra-
ton law, reforms in the tax system,
changes in the Fish and Game law,
enacted by a former republican legis-
lature an alteration of the road laws
which imposed a heavy burden on
many counties, and foremost economy
in every branch of the Government.
Some OF The Things Finished.
In fulhllInent of platform pledges
the legislature enacted the French
Registration. law, providing for two
registrars in each precinct-one of
each political faith, this law making it
mandatory upon registrars and county
courts to permit inspection of the reg
istraticn list at any time, as we'll as
throwing other safeguards around the
exercise of the right of suffrage This
was a democratic measure originating
in the Senate
Even before the meeting, a program
of economy was adopted by the dem
ocrats of both branches of the legisla-
ture and that program was faithfully
adhered to. The number Of attaches in
both branches was cut in half and at
least $1,000 a day saved. In accord
ance with its ideas OF economy the
Legislature reduced the amout of the
general appropriations in the neigh
hood of $250,000 as compared with the
last biennial appropriation, going
step further and effecting a saving of
$4,000 by abolishing the office of pub
lie road engineers. The appropriation
bill as prepared by both houses is said
to have been one of the most careful
ly prepared and business-like appropri-
alton bills over drawn, due in large
part not only to the experience of
Chairman Silver of the Senate Com
the Senate and Hall of the House com
mite, but also to the assistance of
the Beard of Control which admins
tiers the fiscal affairs of all the State
institutions.
