The Clarksburg telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1874-1926, 1911-06-08

A large sum of money is being
returned to the counties of the state
from the state road fund, which the
Democratic legislature destroyed
last winter in order to get in lit
tie spite work toward Charles P.
Light. Whether the returned fund
spent will be used for roads or other
purposes depends on the action OF
the county courts. The fund was
beginning to be a splendid nucleus
for activity along the line of good
roads but the Democratic legislature
preferred mud and mire.

Wilson on Bachelors,

In his swing about the western
circle Governor Woodrow Wilson
discussed great number of public
and made number of oh
servations that should set people to
but not many people will
be willing to admit that he ex-
pressed a divine thought when he
said he considered that bachelors

The Exponent is showing its hand
at last. After being gloved with ST.
lence many months, it takes hold OF
a pair OF scissors and copiously clips
from the Fairmont Times, domi-
mated and subsidized by the Demo-
cratic state machine, and uses the
clipping in an editorial attempting
to defend the Democratic leglsla-
ture for not enacting a primary cleo
ton bill That act alone shows
where the Exponent stands.

House to save the Democratic state
machine. as It thought, had run to
the end of its race. So. 1t shut up
shop and ran home without giving

Thus, one easily sees who is re-
sponsible for the failure to enact a
primary election law.

Why did the Democratic House OF
DelEates shut up shop and run
home so hurriedly. when it ascer-
tanned that the Senate was
on tho verge of accepting
and passing the vital fea-
lures of primary election bill
passed by the House? The manipu-
lators of the House were evidently
afraid that the modified bill Nigh,
break the ranks of the Democratic
state machine in the lower legisla-
tive hall and thereby become a law.
To prevent this as we'll as to keep
al! primary election legislation off
the statute books. the Democratic
House uncermoniously made a bee
line for home.

SOME HOT TIPS.

Henrietta Crossman recently made
her appearance in New York in a new
comedy. The Real Thing, which is re-
ported to have the flavor OF some OF
Oscar Wilde's earlier plays Here are
a few Of the lines which have attract

Beauty may be only slxin-deep. bnt
mighty few women would ever make
that journey up the church aisle
skinned; and it's up to us who have
made the journey to keep the cuticle

curl paper craze have sent more hus-
bands on the affinity hunt than all the
broken commandments In christen-

Eney have occasionally made OF this is
quite inadequate. The big shippers
very generally sxtorted cut rates from
the railroads, and the instances which
have been uncovered ia the courts
leave no doubt that the sums given up
BY the railroads aggregated a very
large amount, and the laws protection
Of them from the great shippers is of
decided Importance Finally. the re-
anirensnt OF the law that thirty days
notice Of rate changes must be given
has stopped q lot Of rate cutting that
used to be practioed, although some OF
u did not reach the dimensions OF q
rate war. and this meant q sacriace OF
revenues
II Is far from certain, therefore, that
the government has not been giving tho
railroads about as much protection as
" has been giving the shippers. AT any
rate, what the railroads are Ia need OF |
Is not so much higher rates as |
larger volume OF business.

N. 0. INDUSTRIAL EXPO.

The. visitors to the North Dakota In.
dustrial show at Bismarck. Sept. rs tc
Oct. 1s. viii have an opportunity to see
the products OF North Dakota at their
best advantage. The state fairs are
held at a season when it is not pos
sible to make an agricultural exhibit.
Many Of the crops Of the current year
have not matured. The late date at
which the exposition 10 to be held
overcomes this difficulty.
Commissioner Of Agriculture GU
breath has noted the weakness of the
state fairs for some years and con-
ceived the idea Of the industrial show
that the people Of North Dakota and
visitors from elsewhere could see agri-
cultural possibilities of the state at the
best advantage.
The exhibit commences next Tues
day. 1t will be well worth the ex-
pense Of the trip. The people from the
eastern part OF the state will have the
added interest OF visiting the state |
capitol building, the penitentiary, the
fort and other points of interest.
The prizes for the different exhibit
are numerous and valuable. Many
counties have special exhibits under
official auspices. The show should be
a success-and every North Dakotan
with a feeling Of pride in the states
development win wish it so.
Commissioner Gilbreath is entitled to
. great deal OF credit for originating
the idea and accomplishing so much In
preparation for the big exposition.
